All of these talks of stereotyping are so serious! Lighten up a little, have some fun with it! ____________________________ How to be PunkHello friend. I see you have worn out your Nsync CDs and have discovered the joys of Blink-182. So where to go from here? It's time to stock up on the poser-punk essentials! To start off, burn your entire wardrobe. It's time to start from scratch. Take a trip to your local Hot Topic, and don't forget to come armed with about $1000! Stock up on the essentials: lots of large, brightly colored parachute pants, a few band shirts, safety pins, black eye liner, eccentric hair dye, and spiked dog collars. Put them all together-- voila! Buy your Blink tickets and curse out those all-too annoying preps. Congratulations, you are the ruler of poser punkdom! ____________________________ *Note: Not to be taken seriously. Hopefully you have had a good laugh. Add on to this, or poke fun at another stereotype.  |

How to be Goth everyone sucks. the world is out to get you. no one understands your deep-seated depression, your meloncholy-ness and your profound hatred for anything that moves. you bleed poetry. lacquer your nails black. adorn yourself in as much black material as possible. paint your face white and your lips black. eyeliner is key. tear your fishnets and get mommy and daddy to buy you some expensive shoes/boots from hot topic. curse everything pop culture. sulk about. the world is yours to mock. ------------- like completely incomplete... all meant in good fun don't eat me. |

ANARCHISM - A HOW-TO everybody hates something, i'm sure you've noticed by now watching all the other meat puppets as you do from your corner of the classroom/bus/cafeteria/workplace. they hate. what do they hate? preps, goths, punks, nerds, ugly people, attractive people, popular people, unpopular people, everybody... well fuck specifics! hate it all! it's fun, free, and it stands out like a guy in a big green duck suit in bondage gear singing "on top of old smokey"... <i>at freshman orientation</i>. oh yes. oh, yes. you want the answer now, yes, you want to know how you can snub even the elitest of the elitists. well... lucy the "goth" works at hot topic (ha) and mark the "punk" works at the local "indie record store, cool man" and gina the "prep" works at abercrombie in the mall ((#@)%&!) but they all have something in common: TAXES. what do those taxes support? the government. they're all going to make future generations pay for their welfare the same as they now pay for their parents' welfare (only with the baby boom there'll be about 9 people to every one person on welfare, huge chunks of your paychecks will be hacked out to keep old people nice and cozy in their neglected rest homes, that's right the ones with the abusive screws who threaten restraints if the old people tell the visiting kindergarteners how badly they're treated, how malnourished they are, and how big a pile of shit retirement and social security are). so hate that. hate the government. reason it out, pour a few hours' thought into it and come to the logical and well-reasoned conclusion that duh! in fact the government *does* suck heinously hairy assballs! wondering what the connection between hating the establishment that all those other clique-fucks support and the clique-mindset itself is? well, you now have it. find some other anarchists to make fun of the government with. i'll give you the drop on some serious put-you-ahead bonus info for reading this tutorial: <a href=http://www.infoshop.org>infoshop.org</a>. make your friends, then go to the site. catch up on the lingo. then... ::whispers:: here it is. <a href=http://infoshop.org/kidz/k_fight.html>kids fight.</a> the only thing is, don't read books. do all the other stuff tho. everyone will be impressed by your violence and all the older anarchists huffing glue in their squats (pardon the blatant stereotype) will be proud of the little prodigy, even tho you're obviously doing nothing to further the cause (which of course doesn't matter to you, as you are just a hateful inconsequential teenager looking for a way to hate better than all the other cliques and you only reasoned out your hatred of the government because i told you to. dumbass.) and are in fact hurting it much, much more than helping it. so you hate the government and everything that goes with it, like society and tv, currency, other forms of media, mass production, police brutality, and all other authority, including those two or three or maybe even four (!) asshole parents of yours. rock. now go steal an atari teenage riot cd, run away from home to occupy an abandoned house with seven older heroin addicts who used to be anarchists, burn all the clothes you bought from lucy and mark and gina in the squat to keep warm, then A) if you're a girl, whore yourself for a few hours or B) if you're a guy, steal one of your squatmate's smack and hawk it. take the money down to your local salvation army, buy some fucked up jeans and a tee-shirt. better get a sweatshirt while you're at it, but if it's not black, nobody will like you (you care). if you're a guy, sorry, but you're gonna have to whore yourself now too to pay your buddy back for the shit you stole, you asshole. take one in the ass, pay him back. now you've got clothes and AIDS, and an undying hatred of almost everyone and everything. now accuse all your fellow anarchists of being closet communists, but only in secret and only to one friend at a time. they are, too. fucking pinkos. the rest is a secret. steal a computer and email me when you get this far and i'll send you the rest. good luck and goodnight. : Þ #nosmileys |

i'm making fun of my own anarchist self. if you can't see humor in any of those, maybe you're too self conscious, or ashamed of yourself, or see some truth in what we say. maybe not. have a sense of humor about yourself

This thread isn't supposed to be in bad taste, it's just showing how completely stupid people look when they purposely try to label themselves.

How to be a Jock
You're quarterback on the football team, and you convieniently miss the urine testing. You don't want anyone finding out about your steriod and marijuana use. You're 6'3", but your intellegence isn't in proportion to the rest of your body.
Throw parties when you're parents are out of town, and only invite the most popular classmates. Don't forget the kegs! Get drunk and pass out. Wake up in the morning sleeping next to a cheerleader. Don't bother getting her name.
Illegally get cigarettes from your older friends. One time, you smashed ten beer cans on your head in 3 minutes. Your wardrobe isn't very varied. It consists of football jerseys and sweatshirts sporting the name of your team.
You try to make passing grades, just so you're not benched for the rest of the season.

Please tone it down a tad. I was just saying, as an admin, that there is nothing wrong with this post. Keep going girls!

Not to be rude, but I think Linkin is offended because she's a self-proclaimed punk who shops at Hot Topic. Considering that, this thread could be offensive. *shrug* But I love it. Jeremy, your post reminds me exactly of the book "Smack," do you know it?
Okay, I'm not funny enough to do this. *sigh*
Love,
~Mike

lol yes i've read smack... i was actually thinking of that when i wrote some of the stuff about squatters. funny of you to mention that. and linkin, you're always going on about the Freak ("half goth, half punk") thing, so don't get all offended when someone slaps a label on you. it's really not a big deal, but if you feel like it is, then just know that you bring it on yourself. besides... this thread is called "finding humor in stereotypes"

Whether it's to get attention which u seem to be lacking or because you like labelling yourself. Besides, goth/punk is not just how you dress, it's a personality type as well. No matter how rebelious you try to be, that's not all it is with goths (especially) or punks. And you don't have it. |
