IF THIS WAS A 90’s ROMANTIC COMEDY AND OTHER THOUGHTS ON BEING BASIC

We’d be all melodramatic, sitting on a railing (just like the one below), looking up into the stars, thinking, “Like, no one understands me, you know?” after seriously considering going through a goth phase. Okay, no… this is such a lousy start to a post. Horrible. Terrible. Awful. A blatant rip-off of every 7th Heaven episode, basically.

When it comes down to it, we just want to talk about the fact that we’re on a smoothie cleanse (not to be mistaken as a full-on juice cleanse, because we’re not, like, insane) for the next three days and have spent twelve hours thinking ONLY of bread. BREAD. Breaddddddddddddd.

Bread.

Which, if we’re still talking about the 90s, elicits the following away message on AIM (AOL Instant Messenger; if you’re younger than 18 years old, it was basically the o.g. Snapchat, except, not really):

*BrB* being bAsic and DoiN a Sm00tHie clEanSe *~* oh & luv u tHoMAs <3 BFFLs f0rEv3r & Ev3r *~*
(translates to: “be right back, being basic and doing a smoothie cleanse, oh and love you Thomas, best friends for life forever and ever” with some asterisks and this thing ‘~’ for no apparent reason).

Bad spelling aside, we’re just going through a very basic phase right now, juice cleanses and all (okay, correction, smoooooooooothie cleanse). Which begs the question: what’s wrong with basic?

Nothing. Nothing at all.

This is how we do basic 🙂

UPDATE AS OF 12PM 6/2/15: We broke down and snuck into a Costco food court for pizza and hot dogs 😛
