Scenesters Options

[*Kathleen*]

What's your definition and opinion of 'em? Just curious.

The scene kids that I know all:

cant decide on a haircolor
look like a 4 year old cut their hair
think it's flattering to wear sunglasses that are as big as their head
safety pin their pants so that they are "tight" (which makes me sick, because they, and every other kid who think's they're punk rock because they have green hair and a leather jacket, used to talk shit on me for wearing tight pants)
think dinosaurs and robots are 'teh sex!11'
type things like 'kthxbye' 'sup fill in the blank?' 'im a dino raaaawr'
are overweight and wear clothes that are skintight
think they're cool because they went to a local show
totally killed our local scene
think they're tough/hot/skinny/betterthaneveryoneelse
are rude and stuck up because it makes them feel better about themselves
think they are SO original
think they're straight edge (but smoke weed)
have never even heard of Minor Threat
Think hardcore bands are Killswitch Engage, Hawthorne Heights, Senses Fail, etc.
Just kidding, real scene kids only listen to music that nobody else has heard of



Oh, and in regards to the straight edge discussion that's going on, whenever I see a kid at school (who looks like they could be in the 6th grade) with Xs drawn on their hands, I 'offer' them a cigarette, or ask them where the show was at. The reactions are often priceless.
