Link - Choose a Scenester. Stereotyping is fun.

"wouldn't it be more of an act of rebellion if you didn't spend so much time buying blue hair dye and going out to get punky clothes? it seems so petty. stop me if I'm being offensive. you wanna be an individual, right? you look like you're wearing a uniform. you look like a punk. that's not rebellion. that's fashion."

- slc punk

i guess that line pretty much sums up everything.

around 2001, i released a site called "how to dress emo."  the site had relatively simple instructions on how to fit the role in what i assumed would be a passing trend.  boy, was i wrong- the emo explosion is still in full force now, years later, and the fashion just keeps getting sillier and sillier. not only that, you can now instantly tell what music someone listens to by their clothing and vice versa.

A book and website detailing the clothing, tattoo, and piercing styles of various scenesters. Stereotyping is fun. Pick from the drop-down menu on the left to get info on the scenester of your choice.

This site is brilliant, haha. Made even more ironic by the fact that most of his stage backdrops, cd covers, etc are for bands like Fall Out Boy, Coheed and Cambria, etc.

Saddest part: ...those are EXACTLY what they look like. Every stereotype I've ever seen.

They actually have 'action figures' too.

I have a friend who looks EXACTLY like the BANE tshirt guy-- he has them.
