Viewing Notes

HAHAHAHAHA!

So this was an ABC After School Special about kids becoming “punk”. The parents are all appalled, and the overlying message is to say that there’s nothing wrong with dressing this way - no judging a book by its cover and all. It kind of succeeds, but then in the end the kid still gets shit from his parents, and this is after he’s already toned down his “outrageous” appearance once to calm them. It’s all pretty damn hilarious.
