I always hear stories of how us emo trash people will take their parents into Hot Topic and their parents will be horribly confused or horrified by everything
That's never been the case for me
Let me explain
The first time I dragged my parents into Hot Topic it went like this
Me: Hey I heard that Hot Topic place is neat (is low key trying to get parents in there)
Mom: *looks at store* Yeah it looks cool lets go
Then once we actually get inside this is what happened
Me: *overwhelmed by all the amazing merch as usual*
Dad: Is that Doctor Who stuff? I LOVE DOCTOR WHO!
Mom: Oh that's a really cute dress wow look at that sweater oh these earring are cute KARAINA THERE IS HARRY POTTER STUFF
Dad: IS THAT GREEN DAY? I LOVE GREEN DAY OMG
Me: I'm gonna go check out the TØP shirts
Dad: That Tøp shirt is cool. I like the design. can I get them to design me a shirt?
Me: If you can get TØP to design you a shirt I will love you forever
Mom: Why does all this stuff have like pentagrams on it?
Me: That's the supernatural stuff mom
Mom: Oh I've seen that show?
Me: REALLY!?!???
Mom: Yeah but you can't get the pentagram stuff because you know religion
Me: dang it
Dad: I LOVE THIS SONG THEY'RE PLAYING WHAT BAND IS IT *is rocking out*
Me: Dad this is Bring Me The Horizon (Drown was playing)
Dad: I LIKE THIS BAND
Mom: KARAINA THEY HAVE GRYFFINDOR SCARVES
Me: MOM YOU'RE A RAVENCLAW
Mom: I KNOW BUT YOU'RE A GRYFFINDOR
Me: I KNOW THAT
Then we get to the checkout
Cashier: (who was totally like punk rock af) did you find everything okay?
Me: Yeah
Mom: She wanted to buy everything
Cashier: *laughs* Most of the people who come in here do
Dad: Man, the music you guys have playing in here is sick
Me: *giggles* Sick as frick
Cashier: *smirks at my reference* I'm glad you think so, sir. Most parents are scared by the music.
Dad: Oh, I love this kind of music.
Mom: So do I. Not the screaming, but the guitars are cool.
So basically I think my parents are low key emo trash like me
