why do people automatically think you should have a purple mohawk and lip rings when you say you like punk?
i'm not like hardcore into punk (or into hardcore for that matter) but i do like a bit of it. the descendants, pennywise, blink-182 (which is a bit more pop-ish and newer, but alot of their stuff is inspired by stuff like the descendants and fugazi and whatnot), nofx, green day, a tiny bit of the offspring (i haven't discovered much), and whatever else there is. whenever someone see's that on my ipod they automatically say "you're into punk?! i'm surprised you're not covered in tats, sporting multiple piercings, and wearing a purple mohawk!".
alright, so that was kinda odd, but it bugs me. just because someone likes a certain type of music doesn't mean the fit in and act like everyone in the scene. i like a tiny bit of hip hop music but i wouldn't go around wearing grillz and baggy pants and bling-bling or whatever's it's called these days.
