Subcultures
I really dislike subcultures, and I use to be in one. Take me back about five years when I was a young scamp, I went through the rebellion years of childhood. Those were the days I suppose. They still suck though, hell they practically sucked then (or I got sucked depending which way you look at it).
People seem to love them. There aren’t that many people I can think of who I know who don’t seem to belong to some sort of sub-culture, other than some of my closer friends. Apparently these days there is something wrong with just being yourself. Of course there is another thing that pisses me off about sub-cultures. Anyway, on with the show.
Emo
Everyone knows at least 2 emo kids these days. Hair cut over one eye, likes little bows in their hair, generally balls have not dropped yet, whiney and they listen to some of the world’s worst music. It’s horrible. They usually smoke too. They are one of these groups in which every member when commented on just say “you hate me cos’ I’m different.” Incorrect answer, dumbass. This is one huge thing wrong with most sub-cultures, they all think they are some how more unique and individual than everyone else. Of course they don’t see that being exactly the same to all of their friends is some how hypocritical of this thinking, what they really mean is “you hate me because I look like a twat.” Every time you tell them to go and cut their wrists when they are blowing second hand smoke in your face they inform you that not all emos cut their wrists. I was so shocked at this statement that I ripped the poor sod’s balls out, because they obviously weren’t planning on dropping themselves. The women are almost as bad, however there isn’t enough evidence to prove that emos are anything except for hermaphrodites.
Chav
The Chav is quite obviously worse than your common emo. As long as your not near an emo when they are smoking or moaning, they can be tolerated. Chavs cannot be tolerated in any sort of society. For anyone who doesn’t know what a Chav is, I suggest typing it into google and seeing what comes up as there is far too much to explain. For our American friends the simplest I can put it is that they are violent and retarded wiggers. Usually it is another phase which people grow out of, although it appears to last a lot longer than most phases, and could well be permanent. If alcoholism is a disease, then this is a fatal virus. Generally, coming into close contact with Chavs for a long period of time may cause you to become one yourself. Soon you will find yourself listening to lyric-less music, with little in the way of imagination or rhythm. This music which may cuase brain damage is called “Drum and bass” although I’ve never heard the drum beat myself. They are also dangerous characters, carrying around knifes and guns and being involved in gang wars. So, my suggestion here is to put that hunting ban on foxes to good use and set them on Chavs. The odour shouldn’t be hard to gain – cheap cider, stale fags and fake gold.
Indie Kids
After mainstream music got bored of itself, it realised there was one thing they hadn’t tried yet – mass marketing the scene which was made to not be mass marketed. The result was more crap. When more crap is made into a new genre, in comes a new sub-culture. this new one is very silly. The biggest irony is in the name itself – Indie is supposed to be something that is anti-conformity, yet it is a conformist sub-culture itself. It’s all rather amusing really, although obviously this cannot be seen to the people inside the group. What basically they end up looking like is someone who has just come out of the 70s and decided that new-wave rules and combined the both. The result tends to be failure. Some of them look like they have just come from a golf tournament, others have very silly cardigans on that have been knited by their granny, skinny jeans on the thinest of people, drain pipes and more. On their own, these items can be made to look quite nice, however when you try to jam them all together it just looks pathetic.
There are of course many more sub-culture to rip the shit out of, but these are currently the most common in England. The age of the punk rocker and the Goth are slowly dwindling away. And by Punk I don’t mean Sum 41 or anything vaguely similar, proper punk like The Clash and Sex Pistols. These were proper punks, loved anarchy and properly ate small babies for breakfast, just for the hell of it.
I mean basically put, most sub-cultures suck unless they actually stand for something and aren’t totally annoying. Why people can’t just be themselves is beyond me, but I suppose most people’s brains haven’t developed enough yet to allow them to think for themselves for once. Shame that.
