Welcome to Gaia! ::

I consider it like any highschool trend. A huge waste of time and money all focused on what amounts to pure idiocy. Such things are a "ehy, look at me!!! I'm all different and s**t" type of cry for attention, which doesn't particularly do anything but annoy the piss out of me and make marketing execs richer.

Also, that genre of music and the hairstyles involved suck. Breathy vocals(resulting from way mistuned mics) and hair that looks like a blind kid with the shakes cut it, well, nuff said.


Labels in general are a human way of handling the fact that there are different kinds of people and such. "people who look and act like this are X", "people who look and act like that are Y" and so on. Neither a positive or negative thing, simply a means to an end.


WSell done thread, by the way.

I require that anyone who talks to me IRL leaves off with the slang from whatever clique they hang out with. I am so fed up with this deep intrinsic need people have to try to separate themselves from others, like they're so much better than the rest of us.

Or when my friends in high school still say things like, "Oh, she's such a preppy b***h. I hate her," I'm just like, "what, are you twelve? Stop that." It's just so unnecessary, to me.

No offense but I have a deep interest in vampires. Although I may not go around pretending to bite people or such I still have a love for vampires and all that. So I find that comment unnessecary and rude.
Secondly, "scene kids" are in my opinion a subculture of emocore. In which neon and flashy colors are perfered and instead of the "emo": dark, negative and in some cases distant from others attitudes are: being cute, liking Hello Kitty and saying cute things, references to ninjas and saying things like "Rawr!".

I consider myself "Scene" on this description yet do not commit to the whole: "puffy, geled/sprayed hair and neons. Although if I had more time I'd probably puff my hair and such.

I used to chill with this druggie who would get ******** up and pretend to be a vampire an bite the s**t out of me. I hated her. Surprisingly, she was a pretty decent person when sober, though.

I'm ******** thrilled to be out of high school. Being a teenager sucks. I'm stoked to almost be finished with it.

I don't love vampires myself, only because they're so godlike and obnoxious most of the time... and the kids who love them are so pretentious. When you have sensibly fleshed-out characters and fans who aren't total dicks, vampire are pretty cool though. biggrin

Anyway, the long and short of this is that I agree with Kyla too. biggrin

I have a solution to the problem of people who believe they're vampires.

Fill a squirt bottle with lye solution. Say it's "holy water". Squirt them when they come near you. Watch and laugh.
