Tremondie is the combination of trendy, emo, and
indie. These humans seek to represent a culture they think they're exclusively a part of. As of recent (2015) a Tremonster is a next level
hipster with an Instagram that says "#35mm" more than any other term. They are cool, hip, and wear wide brimmed hats and leather ankle
boots. Doc Martins are an essential and clogs are the up and coming necessary item.
Boys will always rock a
Hipster Yamaka and all will have a smelly denim jacket with some
weird "unique" buttons on them. Clean Tremonsters are lovers of succulents, bougie
coffee they probably
don't even
like, and trying to make everything themselves (including jewelry, clothing, beds, tables, succulent planters, etc.). Connections are everything so knowing other Tremonsters is key. The dirty Tremonster, as states before, will have the quintessential denim jackets and have undoubtedly bleached at least one section of their hair in the last year. I'll go out on a limb and say that these Tremonsters might finally own record players to use the records they've been collecting for years. But, low and behold, they have also brought back the cassette tape (goodie!). Some Tremondie kids will use camcorder apps and will never
stop making their technology as 'vintage' as possible. Over the years, Tremondie has taken on new forms and I'm sure I haven't even tapped into every facet of this ever evolving side of humanity.
"I was at The General Store and I saw this Tremondie
book about how to make your own afghan rugs. But I just decided to buy 10
air succulents and get an overpriced latte at Four Barrel (
sub Intelligentsia, Stumptown, or Blue Bottle). Want to come over and listen to my new punk cassettes with me?"
"Wow Karen you're such a Tremonster I
don't know if I want to join you or never talk to you again."
*wasn't able to listen to friend due to
phone activity*
"..what? Oh can you make sure to hash tag 35mm on that last post. Oh and add 'film isn't dead', you'll thank me later”
