Fuck punk rock kids?

if you are gonna dress like that, you have to expect to take flak, like it or not, not everyone will see it as a cool thing, and not everyone is open minded enough to see it with out saying something stupid.

 

exactly, so you really shouldn't dwell on the naysayers, as cliche as it sounds, those who talk shit usually do it because it makes them feel better about their own fucked up existence.

 

It's a huge problem everywhere i've been. I know a lot of "punks", who refuse to wear anything but second-hand training suits, and bitch about everybody else being posers. No mohawks or piercing, yet sure they are the most rebellious thing in the world. I'm not saying you need to have piercings, leatherjackets, mohawks or ANYTHING to be part of a scene, but i find it ridicolous how they hate on everybody who looks different. What's the difference from mainstream society?

 

Fuck that guy Wonder, don't worry about it...he resents you because his youth is gone and yours is a beautiful thing...

Don't worry
Just be yourself
Who cares what they say
Don't worry
Just be yourself
Be it
Right or Wrong
Be it
Right or Wrong

You should dress how ever you feel, as long as you are true to yourself. Yes, there are the posuers who wear the "punk rock uniform", but that doesn't mean that everyone with a mohawk and patches is a posuer... as long as you are true to yourself and dress how you feel comfortable then you are a true punk, way more of a punk than someone who stands on the sidelines telling others how to dress.

"To Thine Own Self Be True" doesn't matter what others think.

 

in my opinion kids like you with real heart give me hope for the future of punk! never give up, never give in!

 

Shoulda told him that whats out here is a representation of whats up here, you cant be pointing out random people you don't know telling them how to dress :/ don't sweat it, the guy was probably already pretty drunk.

 

Ah yes, the ongoing battle between fashion and "anti-fashion" (which is really still a form of fashion anyways), and who the "posers" are. "Poser" is such an overloaded term nowadays that everyone's a poser by some stretch of the definition. I really don't care, as long as you're not an asshole I think we'll get along fine.

 

there are a lot of dumbass "punks" out there though, of all ages and varieties. that's why I enjoy not looking punk sometimes, then the idiots don't bother trying to befriend me. whatever dude, you're well on track to figure out lots of shit for yourself.

 

Don't worry
Just be yourself
Who cares what they say
Don't worry
Just be yourself
Be it

awesome song, now you know there are racists and homophobes, sexists etc. etc. who take this same song to heart.

 

LOL... one of the most 'punk' guys I know walks around looking like a hip hopper, because he realises he's just fucking himself over jobwise, etc, by looking punk

 

Isn't an aspect of punk rock the freedom of expression? Don't human express themselves partly through the way we look? It'd be awfully hard to express your discontent for corporate America while wearing the latest American Eagle Polo Tee.

 

While getting older one always realises having been a dumbass no matter what, there is something insanely stupid for everyone... It's called evolving (not growing up - i've realised sooo many times i've been a dumbass but i'm very much not a grown-up)! Wearing a leather jacket with a patch is probably not one of those things you'll look back at going "what was i thinking?!", cos you'll do way stupider stuff

 

Continuing in that vein... the more stuff you do the more stuff you'll screw up as well

 

Chris Smith wrote that song about his nefarious heroin addiction that eventually killed him, he was an Anarcho-Punk with a bad drug problem...The reason i quoted it was because as a young punk that
song gave me strength to deal with all the anti-punk bullshit ...as for racists, homophobes and sexists they'll latch on to anything since they can't obviously come up with anything remotely original...those idiots could fuck up a wet dream

 

fuck emif an old fuck at a concert is gonna bitch at you shank him
