i find it so funny that ppl are trying hard af to tell us what is abg and what is not.
this kind of gatekeeping makes me feel like there is breed separation
abg is just an aesthetic. it is a self-made community tag, not a credential someone needs to issue you.
"you're not abg so you can't use abg" doesn't really hold up. an aesthetic is something you opt into or out of - there's no admissions board.
it's so ironic, cuz the whole abg thing was originally anti-establishment, anti-respectability-politics.
and we're in SF. the home of punks, freaks, and people who don't ask for permission. gatekeeping here is just sooo embarrassing.
i am a fob. and i am proud of it. and i would like to call myself an abg.
so stfu and go get a job
