Please understand that I am NOT bashing scene kids, it's midnight and Josh and I are tired as fuckkk!
Hello there! This is Andy and Josh with your local broadcast and why yes! yes we are compiling the history of the "scene" that is today from the begining roots, to the current. why? because we're FREAKING bored and have nothing better to do at 12:38 at night. but i will recollect, and take a look back at all the little fads, music, style, atrocities and all that other stupid stuff. dont expect good grammar, because we dont really plan on fixing many typos. maybe after we go through this.
The Roots and origin(not oranges)
why yes?! where did all this come from?
many speculate, but really the scene now is just a conglomoration and big sticky ball of a bunch of sub catagories (as is every little class of people) that have somehow all migrated to the scene
Obvisouly the real real begining was the Punk scene of way way back when. and the term EMO was created shortly after in the 80's (NOT the emo we know today) it was emotional hardcore. and so punk has always been around, and the scene of course takes a throwback to that, you cant deny it. but we'd say to get to where we are now?!
it started about in the late 90's. a sudden intrest in pop punk took affect, and swept up all the little 12-16 year old boys and girls. some went hardcore punk, some stayed with wha they saw on mtv. soem of these bands consisted of
Good charlette
Simple Plan
MxPx
New Found glory
Blink 182
Greenday
The used
Taking back sunday
Dashbored confessionals
The atari's
Bowling for soup
and the likes of those sort of bands
now all of a sudden it was Trendy! to where your spike bracelets, hate your parents, show how hardcore you were with your new awesome "stud belt"
obviosuly some of these bands still thrive a bit to this day, and the rest still ..well imo suck.
trust us, my chemical romance is not okay
but yes the seeds of todays scene were spread. because whats this? now we see a bunch of black banded bracelets, and this band called my chemical romance comes out and spreads like wild fire through all the kids. and now some of the indie kids, are sharing an intrest with what the other kids listen to.and to add fuel to the fire, the kids have discovered a place called...myspace!
the "emo" trend is in full effect here
My chemical romance
The used is more prominant
Taking back sunday
Death cab for cutie
senses fail
from autum to ashes
Hawthrone heights
Afi
coheed and cambria
etc
sex icon? gerard way
the indie kids bring up the nerdy emo look with there emo shades, and tight pants start to come back. and obvisouly how do guys get tighter pants when every pair now that is "cool" is GINOURMOUS?!
go get girl jeans!
the emo cuts (were more goth cuts, but a bit more trendy) eye liner, piercings come more into play. tight shirts were already becoming trendy all around but more so in this "emo" trend.
everyone myspace display name is "trust me im not okay" or "vampires will never hurt you"
now it seems the goth, the punk, the pop punk, the indie seem to be all kind of mixing and matching.
eye liner!
black hair!
its all a sudden cool for a guy to be more in touch with his femine side, to kiss boys, whine and cry, all the girls start finding cool 80's style cuts.
myspace mirror shots ran RAPANT (and still do)
NOTE TO SELF, sonny moore likes to rub his nipples
a band called "from first to last" pops up and this takes the place of the hit band my chemical romance
yes the screamo is here! the only occasionaly screaming heard in taking back sunday , the used, senses fail, hawthrone heights...are now AMPLIFIED! but still in the emo package.
the same bands in the last segment are still pretty damn prominant, but now everyone on myspace is taking pictures of them crying, boys are putting bleach streaks in their hair.
its cool to wear shirts that say "dont mess with hawthrone heights"
everyone has there name as a FFTL lyric in their myspace name wether it be note to self, or dead baby kick ball, kiss me im contagious etc etc
sex icon? Sonny moore. all the girls want him and all the boys want to be him it seems.
experiment with hair. emo is starting to get annoying to everyone, because no one likes getting called emotional, and talking about crying etc. the word Scene is starting to pop up. pretty much a word to break out of "emo" so it makes it harder to make fun of someone.
current style for boys?:
girl pants(some wearing POORLY granny jeans tht go up to their belly button)
converse, skate shoes, or vans
studded belt, or white girls preppy belt
tight band T
striped sweater
piercings SNAKE BITES
girls fashion?
ballet flats
pearl necklaces
skirts with black tights underneath
band t's
and piercings SNAKE BITES!
WOAHMG snake bites are totally the cool thing to get, 2 rings in your lip! yeah! everyone got that, it was so new and orginal *sarcasm*
hardcore bands started showing up more, as were electric style bands. 80's bands started getting popular. avenged sevenfold started to also sweep over everyone
no YOU look like the number 12
screamo bands and hardcore bands start to ake affect, people find out sonnny moore has zits, and is really annoying
bands?
the number 12 looks like you
fear before the march of flames
the blood brothers
the fall of troy
neon blonde
comeback kid
norma jean
he is legend
etc
everyone is all of a sudden "hollywood"
you are panicing at the disco
panic at the disco makes an apperance here and all a sudden everyone and there brother on myspace is "at the disco"
this band that no one heard about only a few SPREADS and all a sudden everyone knows and loves them
now we are so far into the scene that even preppy kids with bleach spots in their hair and american eagle pants can be scene
pretty much the scene at this point had spread to every makor and minor category and class from the prep to the goth to the punk to the ska to the metal head to theraver. you could somehow relate to the scene or wearing something that was scene. its hard to point things beyond this point so we will just point out things out at random as filler for the scene
-everyone turned into a bitch/cunt. it was cool to be a asshole
-bandanas, wether ont he head, back pocket, like a gangster, flipping the piece sign, or on the arm
-it was cool to be straight thugging, listening to rap, talking about being black...totally awesome and scene
-harcore dancing, it became cool once an idiot started flailing his arms in a mosh pit like an idiot. it was now cool to come back home after a local show and talk abotu how you got hit in the face when you were hardcore dancing. WOAH watch out, life threating spin death kick to the FUCKING face!
-cold ,winter season? get a coat with a furry hood! mos tlikely started by one of the scene queens that was rich and had a real fur hood..now everyone has immitation!
-veganism
-sXe, dont do drugs, then get ridicouls and preech about how everyone should stop drinking caffine. draw X's on your hand to let everyone else you are drug free!
-robots vs donosaurs vs ninjas vs pirates. if you had any of these on your profile you were amazing! rawr!
-girls liked boys kissing boys..thus they spread all over girls profiles and boys kept doing it to please the ladies
-guns go bang! dinosaurs say rawr! oh my god, seriously? no way?!
-taking pictures with pokemon or power ranger stuff, even if you hated it when you were a kid..its cool now!
-emo is now so out, only seen in 13-15 year olds who still cling to fall out boy and the like, like little girls to britney spears, but its so not cool to cry anymore
-photoshopping your picture all to hell
-photoshopping your picture to gore yourself
-black and white pictures
-highly contrasted pictures so its so bright you cant even see theire face..FAT!
-Scene profiles, and contests! get accepted and whore yourself and tell people to vote for you! biggest whore wins! screw it if you are uglier then the other person! you have more friends!
-Make your profile say youa re 14/15 so that you may have a super cool private profile! it doenst matter that you are really 18 years old!
-myspace groups and acronyms! VIP, S &M, and a few others are the most elite, and there are a lot of other just weird groups, but everyone has a crap loud of HGDJHJK in their name. woo clutter your screen name!
-whore yourself! W4W button! you need more friends even if you dont talk to them! 900 friends? pssh you arent cool until you reach 5000
-you have to like coke over pepsi but like mountain dew more then both. how does that even make sense
we will add more later
CURRENT!
right now its in to like super metal/grindcore/screamo bands like job for a cowboy, drop dead gorgeous, zao etc. everyone has them on their profile even if days earlier they said they hated it! MAN you are so scene and hardcore man! youc ant even tell what he growling but MAN is it awesome! im sure you bring the mosh! woah watch out tiger, dont hardcore dance to hard, you almost hit me!
make a whore train! put a super cool myspace celeb on it to show they approve!
put way cool text on your pictures of something dark and metalish. hardcore!
most of the things we've said above are still cool
septum and monroe piercings are super common now
girls with fashion mullets breifly came and left
hmmm what else is pretty in right now. its hard to tell.
whats next?!
its hard to tell, usually really stupid things catch on really quick, and will either stay or fade, or becoem lame in a month. the summer is coming so who knows what cool new trendy piece of clothing will come into effect haha.
bands? we think a lot of people (especially girls) are starting tor ealize super metal grindcore bands arent as cool as they once were, especially when you cant really sing along to them, and we've noticed QUITE a few profiles that are actually somewhat indie, with piano or keyboard. some electonica, and some indie almost popish.
what band have we seen the most lately popping up? frou frou
more faint, freeze pop, the scene aethiestic
taking back sunday and AFI both realeased new albums and i see those bands kinda becoming a little popular. no telling what music will be "cool" next though.
it was hot to have your display name in colored text, or away cool picture of it, but tom disabled it. damn that tom! ruining your oringinality!
JOSH: I'm thinking cute skirts, maybe almost fancy will come into fashion, possibly jean jackets. white dress shirts. and a lot of naked myspace pictures
so whats the point of all this?
FIND WHAT YOU LIKE TO WEAR AND FITS YOU WELL AND WEAR IT dont where what everyone else wants you to wear. STOP copying everyone elses myspace find your own profile style and KEEP IT stop makign your profile look like that other hot girls. We are not going to think less of you because you dont have some cool text on one of your pictures, and we doubt anyone else will care either.
do what you like, be who you are. and...dont pee in the wind
see anything taht should be added that we've missed (it is late) tell me, We will(Josh and I), will discuss it, add it and credit it to you with your name by it.
think this is silly? we dont care its all good fun. offendned? loosen up serisouly. laugh at yourself? good! at least you can awknowledge it
think we're stupid for typing it all up? you are stupid for reading it all then. we did this out of boredom and for fun anddd we are slightly tipsy
maybe for fun we will update this often with the scenes "coolest in fad"
Coolest in Fad
August 8th, 11:22 A.M.
WE'RE BACK!
Hello all! This is Josh and Andy with your local "scene kid" newcast
A good friend of mine, Peter, brought up this subject
"one thing i noticed was the whole wearing bows and big sunglasses. or to much makeup. its gay."
Josh and I have discussed this and we couldn't agree anymore! How is it funny or well cute if you're sunglasses are raping half of you face and OH WAIT! You take them off and your eyes are covered with gooey, fading eye make up and just make up in general. Which makes it all worse because how much make up you put on your face, it's some how melted into your skin and now you have pimples and acne galore which makes your face look even more disgusting! But that's okay, that's what photoshop is for.
The bows! Andy - Well I have to admit, I do own about 3 bows, but personally I like them and they are CUTE sized they don't take up my entire head.
And they are so cheap, they fall apart! Come on, grow up, what are you 5?
Another thing that has been drawn to our attention is proof videos, telling everyone how they so aren't scene, how to be scene videos, those supid whore trains that OMG I SWEAR REALLY DO WORK.
Proof videos, oh wait, people are trying to be hardcore and telling people that i'm really Gary Gangbang [ae/agjeoag/age/gaju/VP] and my friend id really is 79876488, don't steal my shit or I'll smash you in the face. LETS GET HARDCORE WITH THE VIDEO CAMERA. Does it really matter?
Suddenly even if you have only 200 friends, you HAVE to make a proof video because well, you aren't awesome or TOTALLY scene if you don't have one.
I'm not scene videos: "Oh my god, so this like emo twat is bashing all these scene kids and I HAVE to be original and show off my piercings and INTENSE HAIR OF DOOM and show everyone I'm so like not scene. Even if I do have metal growing out of my face. So like the other day, this girl called me scene and I'm like LIKE OMG I'M SO NOT SCENE! So what my hair takes up the entire universe and I use enough hairspray to take out the whole planet. I'M NOT SCENE. So I'm going to go home and make a I'm not scene video and post it all over youtube" Uh hunny, that's just telling everyone you're scene. Stop bitching and get the hell over it jeezzz.
How to be scene videos: This scene trend has gotten so bad that everyone wants in on it. Half the stuff is way lame and stupid. But that doesn't matter, even you. YES YOU geeky kid in the corner can be scene also. How? Go buy photoshop, who cares if you don't look like that in real life.
Andy - Girls I'll tell you how to be scene. First you need to get a youtube because you're totally not scene if you don't have one. Then go make your self throw up in the toilet, so you can weigh a negative 80 pounds so you can wear a double size zero. Get extensions and go buy all the bright make up you can find. Dump a shit load of products in your hair. Have sex with a famous band, it doesn't matter if you didn't actually do it. Lie and brag about it. NOW YOU SCENE! CONGRATS!
Josh - Boys I'll tell you how be scene. Become a cunt first, you can't be nice and still be a scene kid. Dump your girlfriend and become BI, being bisexual is very important! Go get your bridge pierced, take your snake bites out, that's emo and you don't want to emo, get a septum that's a must! Wear flannel shirts and skinny jeans. Go buy a straighter and take a picture of you half naked in the bathroom there you go TOTALLY scene!
Whore trains: You know having 5000 friends is no longer cool. Ugh that's like such a low friend account that's like having only 1,000 friends. But the solution? Go join a "power train", spend all day on your damn computer and add a whole bunch of people you will NEVER talk to, you can't join our train if you only have 5000. But wait theres more! THESE TRAINS REALLY DON'T WORK! SO WHAT IF WE DON'T REALLY PUT YOU ON THIS TRAIN, YOU'RE STUPID ENOUGH TO JOIN! THANKS FOR YOUR FRIEND ID NOW WE'RE GOING TO HACK YOUR PROFILE AND DELETE ALL YOUR FRIENDS, SO NOW YOU HAVE TO START OVER! SUCKKAAA!
August 30th, 2008 1:56 AM
So this is just my entry because Josh is trippin on acid right now and i'm only slightly smashed and I'm the only one who can type properly.
alright so! My friend ally said something really damn smart
"i noticed the whole coloring your hair thing.
it looks so disgusting and oily.
like no offense but audrey kitching looks like she got f*ckin cotton candy in her hair."
Ahahah ALRIGHT SO YEAH. I agree, it looks shitty and majorly unhealthy to dye your hair crazy colors all the time, why? Because it frys your hair like no other so you end up with dry, brittle and dead hair, basically it feels like a straw. I will admit, Josh and I still do it! Right now I have black and white hair. Blonde on top and black on bottom and Josh has black/teal/green hair. BUT I get it professionally done, which does cost alot of money. Got my hair done last weekend, 142 bucks to get it done, WHY? Because my hair is basically fried and over prosesed. You probable asking yourself, "well why do you still do it?" Because I like to do it, and it actually looks good on me. Now take a look at your average scene kid, you see the girl with the pink hair and the crazy highlights that make their face look pale and washed out, or the girl with blonde hair which looked like a fucking rainbow raped her hair. Audrey Kitching and Jeffree Star, are the IDOLS of cotton candy pink hair. Sure it looks good on them, I've met them both and I got to party with Jeffree Star. But DON'T MIMIC THEM. Because every person I've met with pink hair, with a very FEW exceptions with some girls, looks like they dumped their hair in hot pink paint and let it dry. It's gross okay, take my advice DON'T DO IT!
***side note***
We're only half joking about some of it. we're not stupid, we can admit to doing some of these things. som of you are like "YEAH YOU ARE SO RIGHT, STUPID SCENE!" and yet you are trying to be scene, just by going to your profiles we can see you trying "hard". dont be retarded. this was made just pretty much so you can laugh at yourself a little bit. we're not exactly BASHING it. jesus
ALSO!
Most of the time Josh and I will be drunk, tripping, high or any type of narcotic or drug, just warning you and please, save your lectures, we don't want to hear them.
