Pull Teeth Vs. See Like Me Part II
Although a little over a year has slowly crept by since Part One, we figured you were too stupid to notice Part Two was still pending. So without further ado and after adding a disclaimer that I did not steal any merchandise, accessories or clothing from anybody in the making of this conversation, we present, in mutual exclusivity, Part Two. A separate account as to the stylist assistant job to (possibly) follow. Read Part One to familiarize yourself with the BFF of Jeremy Scott. Photos / Sara Blomqvist for Exit Magazine
AC: We can talk about how much I hate hate hate eminem on roman’s revenge.
TT: Well let me listen so I have an opinion, but cue rant. What’s this? em, dat you?
AC: yeah… fuuuuck (lets keep this one a bit shorter k? I tried re reading the other one and just couldn’t do it lol).
TT: Okay. So why do you hate Eminem?
AC: As a feminist I’m easily offended.
TT: It’s pretty poor rhyming.
AC: Lines like this: “ou don’t like it then peel off bitch / every last woman on Earth I’ll kill off / and I still wouldn’t f-ck you, slut…life is a dumb blonde white broad / With fake tits and a bad dye job”.
TT: …Wow he even throw’s in some “toilet humour”. Have you heard of that other new “white” rapper, Hoodie Allen?
AC: No, I haven’t. Oh, brother. I’m 20 seconds into a youtube video… that’s enough for me.
TT: He’s sure doing the rounds though. Not that it boils down to race, but… it boils down to race. White people suck at rap. Do you think you’ll go far? Like become successful or famous?
AC: Me? No. I wish. I want to be as big as Nicki Minaj.
TT: I thought her entire album was filled with “look at me now” plugs. It kind of got jaded.
AC: “All you little faggots can suck it, no homo” fuuuuuck eminem dear lord have mercy.
TT: don’t you think though that Nicki Minaj is riding her own gravy train just like Drake did with the whole my-life-has-changed-now gig? She raps about how she bought her mom a house. Who cares?
AC: Yeah, exactly. But at least with her she came from little… Drake is like “look my wealthy Toronto suburban family is living even more comfortably now…”
TT: Where did she come from?
AC: Queens.
TT: Does she have a wikipedia?
AC: Onika Tanya Maraj. Yeahhh.. shit. Her early life sucked.
TT: she’s kind of a hypocrite though letting eminem ruin her steeze with his god awful lyrics. “I want people—especially young girls—to know that in life, nothing is going to be based on sex appeal”.
AC: Exactly, I like some of her music but I find her very hypocritical. She gets caught up in her words a lot. It’s very obvious she doesn’t have an option though, everything would go through her record company and Eminem = money.
TT: Is her album even doing well?
AC: Yeah, really well.
AC: Neither would I. Can we just talk about Boy London for a second?! I search Boy London on ebay every. single. day. Waiting to find something — a t-shirt, jacket, anything. I’ve bought a watch, and a belt but that’s not ENOUGH FOR ME.
TT: Should I know Boy London?
AC: Yeah, you should.
TT: I’m going to be a stylist’s assistant tomorrow heh heh.. have no idea what i’m doing.
AC: Boy London was big in the 80’s, they have really amazing vintage pieces that pop up once in a while on ebay but go for a ton of money. Then urban outfitters did a relaunch of the brand in the UK. And I was watching this incredible leather jacket on ebay and it wasn’t buy it now and then I checked it and someone BOUGHT IT NOW!? THE FUCK. FOR SO CHEAP TOO. uuuuuughhhh. Anyways tell me more about this assisting. [Note: They have a vintage store in London, which crops up in the conversation… now].
TT: Oh, lord it’s in brick lane? Yikes.
AC: No idea what that means.
TT: It’s like the Williamsburg of London where all the pretention hangs about.
AC: Oh nooo.
TT: So it’s probably ransacked or full of plebs.
AC: Yeah, I can imagine.
TT: Oh well, I’d still fancy a visit. Maybe pick up an item or two. one for me, one for you. Start a poetry book. Anyway this assistant thing I’m doing I have no idea what the shoot is for. But maybe I’ll be carrying around some Boy London clothes. I’ll suggest it at the shoot.
AC: Yes, please!!! I will send you a care package in return. YEAH THEN STEAL THEM. “I know this blogger…” [internet laughs].
TT: That would be the coolest story, except i’ve never stolen a thing in my life and don’t think I could pull it off.
AC: hahahaha IT WILL BE THE PERFECT CRIME.
TT: Or I could just return it mistakenly to london thinking that’s where it came from and never come back [internet cackle]. This is the best christmas list.
AC: Holy bragging.
TT: that’s what you do when you’re rich i guess.
AC: I suppose. MUST BE NICE. REEEEAAAAL NICe.
TT: I’m going to go watch this Dazed documentary on Iceland though that i’ll conveniently link the audience to in case they’re interested. You wanted a short conversation, right?
AC: Yes, this works great. And good. And perfect.
TT: Okay, I’ll probably publish it after I steal those clothes so as to divert attention for awhile. Or else you’ll find it heavily edited for content. Otherwise, we’re in great shape!
AC: haahah PERFECT MWAHAHAHAAHAA. Edit to add: mission successful.
TT: Well, obviously the post will be full of photos of me wearing my new merch.
AC: Perfect.
