Aw can you imagine his amazing fingers sewing the patches on his hat? Trying to carefully line it up just right. Too cute

Yes, I can see that actually. 😉  I tend to feel that Dyl did his own sewing handy work for this particular hat. Maybe his mom got fed up of doing it for him all those years he went through yet another tattered, worn out hat and so told him there’s no time like the present for for him to learn how do his own sewing handywork – but also, I think he’d do it himself out of a sense of having some creative control and exercising that sense of self reliance he had in abundance. He’d like the challenge of figuring things out for himself and doing it the way he wanted it to look as he envisioned. Just like his own t-shirt designs. He even affixed his cherished “B” off to the left of the center seam on his ball cap so it’d lay flatter rather than if he’d affixed it on top of the seam.  That may be why the ‘Colorado Avalanche’ patch on the flip side looked like it was slightly starting to come away at the top from having been sewn directly on top of the seam.  Sew and learn!

I would absolutely love to see a whimsical rendering from either depressioners or rainflesh of Dyl sewing his beloved patches onto his ball cap with those long, spindly, deft fingers of his.  😉  Hint muchly? 

Everlasting is correct! Dylan’s hat was a 47 era hat Colorado Avalanche hat, not a ‘new era’ :)

Yes, the 47 era style Colorado Avalanche hat also seems accurate to his hat in some ways. The shorter, curved bill is closer to his cap however, the size of the cap itself isn’t at all very deep. Dylan’s cap is deeper like the one I posted previously.  Still, I tend to think  he bought a cheap, plain black cap and sewed his old “B” and “Colorado Avalanche” patches on to it.  Think it was hard for him to fit standard ball caps for his head size as well.

So when Dylan wore his backwards hat…was this a “New Era” baseball cap. What brand was the hat? Looks very tight on his head too. Why?

Mm..I’d say based on Dylan’s character as a non trendy individual, he’s sporting a no name brand, generic baseball cap.  The ball cap is the fitted kind – no snap back (that’s Eric’s thing) –  with a curved bill.  Dyl’s got a big head (lots of brains upstairs, ya know?) and the fitted cap is evidently a very snug fit because it appears almost like a swimming cap or helmet which hugs around the top of his head; his scraggly hair fans out from the tight sides. I’d go so far as to say the cap really didn’t fit him anymore. But, you know, Dyl’s a nostalgic kinda guy so he made it fit so as to keep it with him for the fond memories he held with it. He’d out grown it to the point where it was a bit too noticably small and tight for his head. The edges of the bill are a bit tattered and torn too.  So, basically probably amounts to this: he originally had a Boston Red Sox ball cap and also a Colorado Avalanche cap and after he wore those two hats to shreds, he got a generic plain ball cap with no logos whatsoever and sewed the “B” on the back (his front) and the Colorado Avalanche patch on the front (his back). The assumption is that the cap is a dark navy blue because the Boston Red Sox caps typically are of that color. That’s a misnomer because the cap is actually more black than it is navy. Something similar to this but with a much shorter bill:

What question about Dylan do you get the most?

Relationship questions are always very, very common:

“what would Dylan’s perfect girlfriend be like?”
“what would Dylan be like as a boyfriend?”
“what would Dylan be like in bed?”
“what about his bondage and foot fetish thing?”
“what would Dylan be like as a father if he got a girlfriend preggers?” *GAG*

etc., etc., etc..

Oh, and
 can’t forget this one: 

“who do you think is Dylan’s Halcyon girl?”

And this is why the FAQ will be going up. 😏

Was Eric in the prom too? Are there any pics?

Eric never found a prom date. Instead, he had a date at his house watching the movie ‘Event Horizon’ with Susan DeWitt. After she went home, he headed over to CHS and attended the ‘After Prom’ and spent time at the gambling tables as the prom theme was “New York, New York”. Pictures were taken by friends and these photos remain private by their friends. The only photo roll that partially leaked to the media are of Dylan and Robyn at prom.

So I think I may be the only person who is a Columbine researcher who feels extremely bad for Elliot Rodger. I really feel for the guy, and I can’t put my finger on it. I guess it’s because people disliked him when he was alive and when he died. Even his father wished he was never born. Eric or Dylans parents never said that :/

Just going to point out here that the populace, in general, tends to ‘dislike’ all mass murdering fuckheads when they died simply for the fact of the violence they perpetrated, the lives they ended and the misery they brought forth. Elliot is no exception here as is Dylan and Eric, and all the rest of ‘em. Fact is, they made that choice to be forever disliked.

People did try to like Elliot; the problem was he disliked them for whatever various reasons that didn’t meet his rigid criteria and high standards. His demeanor is incredibly imperious and self entitled. Eric and Dylan had a different sorts of superiority complexes but goddamnit, they at least put themselves out there and made attempts to find some sort of place to fit in. The tried in their own failing ways and so I give them credit for that.

The biggest tragedy I find with Elliot is that he needed much more attention and help with social cues and integration earlier on but his parents put him on the back burner of their lives and waited too long and so his social problems grew worse. Then his parents are guilty for compensating for their lack of attention by giving him the monetary fine things he demanded whenever he’d stomp his foot like a petulant little brat. Near the last few months leading up to his ‘Day of Retribution’, Elliot began to take the only friend or two that he did manage to have and snubbed them until he was utterly isolated looking down on the world in utter distain from his castle of superiority. Let’s not forget too he also stabbed his hapless asian roommates because he could not abide by them, they were too beneath him to tolerate.

Also, it’s not Elliot’s father that wished he was never born, that was Adam Lanza’s father.

Isn’t Take My Breath Away a sex song? O_o Awkward!

It’s a slow dance song from the 80â€Čs.  Like any prom, there’d be popular fast dance songs and slow dance numbers. They were lucky to coax Dyl on to the dance floor but that’s  in fact exactly what happened that night, they got the boy out there.  Bless. Probably didn’t dance too much but at least he did, it was something. And I doubt this would’ve happened at all had Eric also attended the prom.
