AVRIL PRIDE? IS THAT, LIKE, A CULT?
Although we may hold ritual burnings of Hilary Duff CD’s from time to time, no - we’re not a cult. Basically, we’re a bunch of crazy Avril Lavigne fans. If you’re not afraid to admit you like Avril Lavigne, join us in our online pride march! No longer should we have to hide our love for one of the greatest musicians of our time. We love Avril Lavigne, and we won't be silenced!
CRAP, I CAN’T LET MY FRIENDS SEE ME HERE!
Now hold on there, kiddo. For too long, we’ve lived in fear. If you're too afraid to tell people what music you really listen to and what makes you happy, maybe you should think about who's really got the problem! If listening to the likes of Lindsay Lohan, Avril Lavigne, Hilary Duff, or even some obscure Japanese boy-band makes you happy, then don't be ashamed! It’s time to send a message to all the sheep who judge other people based on their music taste.
YOU’RE RIGHT. I’VE BEEN IN THE CLOSET TOO LONG. HEY EVERYONE, I’VE GOT AVRIL PRIDE!
That's the spirit! Feels good, doesn't it? The tingles should go away shortly. If itching persists, play 'Sk8er Boi'. Repeat if necessary. Now that you’ve let out your buried Avril Pride, it's time to shout it loud for everyone to hear!
BUT SIR, HOW DOES ONE SHOUT THEIR PRIDE?
It's simple really. Whether you do something small... like turning the volume up when you’re listening to Avril on your iPod in public, or sneaking an Avril song into your friend's party playlist... Or whether you do something outrageous like wearing a home made AVRIL PRIDE t-shirt or making your school's marching band dance to "Girlfriend"... just be proud of who you are and don't let yourself be bullied into hiding the stuff that makes you happy.
To let the whole internet know about your new Avril Pride, we've thrown together a couple banners to help get you started! Stick them in a forum signature, your myspace page, or on your personal website, go nuts!
And there are heaps
more banners to choose from!
JEEZ, WHAT'S WITH THE SAPPY CRAP ABOUT FEELINGS? DID I TUNE INTO OPRAH?
No, this isn't Oprah, and your butch show about secret agents and bad cops will be back shortly. We know we can be a tad sentimental at times, but it's not completely unfounded. It's shocking, I know, but there are actually some people out there that don't see Avril as the same holy savior that we do. We're okay with that. We realize how hard a life without Avril's incredible music must be, so we won't put you down for it. Everyone has their own tastes and preferences. Which in turn, means that no one should ever feel like crap for listening to something that would normally make them happy.
Although it's a known fact that someday Avril will rise into the highest planes of heaven and take her rightful place as Jesus Christ, there's a bigger message to take away from this little club than simply how awesome Avril's music is. It's about standing up to bullies and believing in yourself. It's about enjoying the things that make you happy and respecting the crap that makes others happy. AVRIL PRIDE isn't just about spreading the
Lavigne love. It's about spreading
THE love. :)
