The Daily Gamecock

Choose your own adventure: DIY show

“Hey! Indie boys! Is this the show?” you holler. 

They turn around. One has spiky bleached hair. The other is fiddling with his nose ring. Spiky Hair Boy nods glibly. “You’re a little early. The bands aren’t here yet.”

His friend holds out a hand hopefully. “You got a cigarette?” 

You don’t. You don’t smoke. It’s so bad for your lungs! You panic, scrambling for a way to say no and still seem cool.

Choose one.

“Ah… cigarettes. Gotta love them.” You pretend to dig around in your pockets and throw your hands in the air, pantomiming wild surprise and dismay at the apparent lack of cigarettes (which you do not, and have never, smoked) on your person. “Oh my goodness, must have left mine at home.” You shake your head shamefully.

You look around desperately for inspiration. Your eyes land on spiky hair guy’s shirt. It’s a D.A.R.E. tee from that '90s anti-drug campaign. That’s it! Irony! Indie guys love irony. “Smoking kills.” you say, shaking your head knowingly.
