A Heart Without A Mind...*
I have decided the paradox of my existence is that I have an unlimited capacity for rebellion, but not enough passion for anything to bother to rebel.

You just need to find the right cause.
Maybe seeing John Mayer crucified?
Would that make you "rebel without a cause" or "rebel without a clue"?
That's an interesting paradox.
I'm sure you will find something that you are passionate enough about to rebel.
In even thinking this, let alone posting this, your rebelling against needing a cause.
He's coming here to do a free concert (John Mayer). Mob will be there. Come on up! Poor Anomie-A!
It's a great line, anyway. I guess a friend could help you by offending you.
Woman: "What are you rebelling against?"
Johnny: "Whatta you got?"
From The Wild Bunch, 1953.
that's interesting, i think in college i had at times wished i was part of a more politically active campus so i could "join in" on the activity of otheres...
but start something...there was nothing politically I cared enough about to create the revolution.

Those lines from the Wild Bunch (thanks inkyhack for the reminder) totally impressed me then and just now, again.
"Rebel without a clue"- I think that's a line from a Replacement's song?
yup i hear ya...
This brings to mind "Whatever it is, I'm against it." From "I'm Against It" a song in the Marx Brothers Movie, Horse Feathers.
