[QUOTE=cobert]FFTL and Underoath arent really scene, theyre just like, for fake scene kids. Scene kids with really stupid hair and ugly clothes that arent even part of the scene but call themselves scene anyways only listen to *insert every band justin has ever made a thread on here*. All the kids that listen to FFTL and Underoath think they are 'emo', and probably have no clue of what the scene is, and are just as fake as 'scene' kids, but just a lot more annoying and less pretentious.

It pisses me off that 'scene' has come to refer to any gay band that calls themself metalcore. Scene is supposed to be about the real hardcore bands around an area, and the people that go there ecause they like the music, not because they want to name drop the band on their myspace in a bulletin to all of their 3468 friends.[/QUOTE]

It's all about context. "Scene" can be used to mean that if you're talking about Punk/Emo/Hardcore. "Scene" can come to mean all those gay bands when you're talking about all that gay music.

It just depends.

[QUOTE=Matt?]what scene are scene kids a part of?

this is like the question of life[/QUOTE]

Dude, they are part of the Scene. You know, the Scene.

you know that girl with blond hair that parts down over her ears and cuts off there and has black rimmed glasses and wears like long striped socks because she wants to stand out and be like cool and stuff?



i think that is the scene.

all three million of her.

'Scene kids' arent part of any scene. But like the Neeshmeister said, it depends on the context. Faggy kids with really, really bad taste in music and clothes that all listen to JFAC and think its cool to use as many vulgarities as possible for shock effect (even though its not at all shocking, just stupid)...those people are shallow and arent in any scene. They dont go to shows. Their 'scene' is in their massive egos, thinking theyre cutting edge or something, when they really are just following whatever thing they see somebody on myspace do. Id like to find the one person who does all the scene trends first, just because he probably doesnt get any credit for all of the stupid things hes done since the entire scene fad started, mostly because in a matter of seconds, through the wonders of the internet, everybody looks like him and he probably blends right in. Most of these people think The Chariot is a hardcore band.

Now when you talk about the hardcore scene in places that actually have a hardcore scene, its all tough guy crews tearing sh[size=2]i[/size]t up with their sXe baseball bats. Still, they listen to hardcore beause its what they like, not because they feel the need to be on top of every trend or because they need to say they like every generic br00tal band ever.

HEY WHATS UP WITH THOSE SCENE KIDS AND BEING GAY?


srsly no srsly

HAY WHY DID I MA[size=2]K[/size]E ALL THESE BIG PARAGRAPHS LIKE, TWO SENTENCES EACH?

i've wanted to read atlas shrugged for a while now. her philosophy is interesting.

i think what makes scene kids what they are is that they care about appearances more than they do the music. thats what makes them fake. but kids like that are everywhere. like the preppy kids with their fake surfer fashion, or the wigger kids that try to look like thugs even though they've never been out of the suburbs.

I'm trendy, yeah, but I don't listen to scene bands. I mean, I wear somewhat tight pants (not skin tight girl pants or anything, but I'm a 28x30 straight fit and I'm 6'1", for reference, so they're fairly tight) and tight shirts but I'm not scene.

-Gav

my shirts have gotten pretty tight since i've put on 40 lbs and still wear the same clothes

I'm 139 lbs. :(

I can't get much thinner. I went to the doctor's yesterday and he told me I'm 22% thinner than I should be and that's extremely unhealthy. :upset:

-Gav

I'm about that weight, maybe slightly less. I'm not 6'1'' though.

Props to cob for that "JK-47" line.

Over in pop-punk you said you tried on girls pants and liked them because they fit nice and were comfortable, but decided it wasnt worth the torment and realization you were wearing womens clothing, amirite?

Girls jeans are mad comfortable.

O LOOK I SED IT

They are. I'm not denying that, but they're also skin tight and that's just not the style I'm looking for, haha. :D

-Gav

Question to Gav and Cob. Do you have penises?

Yeah. It's pretty big, too.

-Gav

[QUOTE=I0Play0Bass]That's pretty thin. What happened? Metabolism slowed down?

-Gav[/QUOTE]

no, i completely changed my lifestyle. i choose what i eat depending on its nutrition, not taste. i get 200 to 300 grams of protein a day and like 3,500 to 4,000 calories. at the same time, i eat no transfat, and very very little saturated fat. i take creatine, a multivitamen, and essential fatty acids. i don't cheat. i don't eat desserts or any of that stuff. i don't skip meals. if friends want to meet or something and i haven't eaten, then i tell them i'll meet them in a half hour. that kind of stuff.
i work out on a strict schedule that i never deviate from. i have a workout routine that is based on a lot of research, scientific evidence, and personal trial and error, not gym myths or what my big friend told me to do. and it isn't even that hard or time consuming, its about working out smarter not harder.

basically, i made it a priority in my life, and now it doesn't even bother me to do any of that stuff. and it is really worth it. i'm still underweight at 190 lbs, but i have very little body fat, if i had a normal amount of body fat i would be like 210. all it takes is dedication and time. i love not being skinny, i won't ever let myself go back. i can't believe what i used to look like when i see pictures of myself, at the time i didn't realize how skinny i really looked. i could go on and on about how happy i am to not be skinny any more.

Also, chicks love dudes in chicks jeans.

SRT sounds bulky as hell.

[QUOTE=cobert]Also, chicks love dudes in chicks jeans.[/QUOTE]

That's because it's trendy to wear a tight jeans these days

The only time in history it hasnt been trendy to wear tight clothes was whenever everyone here was 11 and they thought they were thugz 4 lyfe.

[QUOTE=cobert]Also, chicks love dudes in chicks jeans.

na, not really. tall frames, like mine and gavs take muscles real well without getting that bulking, swollen meathead look.

[QUOTE=DFelon204409]I used to be 6'4" 155, now I'm 6'4" 200. Word.

Also, srt, read the book "Old School" by Tobias Wolff before "Atlas Shrugged." It's only like 200 pages, and has some really interesting insight on the book.[/QUOTE]
cool, thanks for the recommendation. i just started "on the road". after i finish that, i'll read old school.

On the Road is one of my favorite books. I LOVE Kerouac.

Cob: I was never in that phase, actually. :D

-Gav

[QUOTE=DFelon204409]I did the same thing except without the diet element and without thinking I know crap about the science of working out. I just worked hard, consistently, and made sure my form and pacing was good.[/QUOTE]
thats awesome, good job. 200 lbs is no joke. i would love to be that without putting on any fat. i'm hoping to hit that within the next 6 months.

for me, i really had to get my nutrition and workout routine down before i made progress.

[QUOTE=srt-4]na, not really. tall frames, like mine and gavs take muscles real well without getting that bulking, swollen meathead look.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I guess I didnt think of that.

EDIT:

Congrats to gav for never being a thug 4 lyfe. Im glad i was never one of those kids who only like classic rock.

[QUOTE=I0Play0Bass]On the Road is one of my favorite books. I LOVE Kerouac.

cool, i'm really looking forward to it. i'm thinking it will be one of my favorite books by the time i'm done, if not my favorite. the 1950s counterculture was so much better than the late 1960s and 1970s countercultures.

Yeah, man, I love Beatnik work. Kerouac...Burroughs...man, I dig it all. It's just so honest and heartfelt. It was an amazing era yet not many people know about it, really.
