Nuke the lot of them. Ditto for 'scene' kids.

Wearing tight red pants and four different colour rosary beads doesn't make you endearing, it makes you an attention seeking tool.

people who claim to be indie are just not indie

i like mostly indie music but i hate being called indie. It's now some sort of fashion statement to be indie and were i live most people are or try to be indie, its quite amusing

I love looking up these terms on Urban Dictionary. It's hillarious how desperate these teens are to define themselves and label themselves. To the outsider it's somewhat degrading, and ironically highly unoriginal.

Just try typing 'Indie Kid' or 'Scene Kid' into Urban Dictionary and you will be met with dozens of people having wars with each other over what or what not constitutes 'official' fashion styles and what not for them, like it's some centralized organisation with it's own uniform.

Apparently, Indie Kids are in a war with Emo's because Emo's 'stole' the converse.

Really?

I mean ... really?

I don't even know what indie is.

The fashion seems to be a hybrid of trendy and emo. The music is a mixture of electronic and rock. It's nothing original in terms of those aspects.

But there is definitely a mindset that goes along with it - the kind of impressionable and attention-seeking followers who're desperate to both be cool and different. In terms of school cliques and the such of the past 50 years or so, where music and fashion have played a strong role on teenagers, the cliques have either been very cool but very samey, or the different kids who are outcasts.

So now they've come together, it seems everyone is trying to customise their clothes and wear vintage **** and listen to unheard-of bands. I don't get it. Just be yourself, and what you feel comfortable in. I buy clothes from Primark and explore music keenly. 'ark at me.

Yeah it's the mentality and attention seeking clothes that bothers me, not so much the natural image.

I grew out of taking the piss out of people with long hair when I was eight.

That boy in the first one enrages me, like the music you like and wear what you want to wear but I hate these labels.

Gunna have a go at it for the laugh and see what I get, even though it's the usual quiz fare. My favourite celebrity in a list of unlikeable twat was Marilyn Manson, so I'll probably get Goth Kid or something.

You are a Skater! You go on the rule ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.’ Skater culture stays the same – as long as there is concrete to grind, trainers to ruin and rock to rock to. You like the implicit rebellion of skating in the urban jungle – and regularly record your stunts to show other skaters what you’re up to – but you would run a mile if you saw the police heading to your latest spot. You don’t want no trouble.
Yeah dude!

You can add your own tribe and view all the other ones at the end including chav, techie, and PC world.

Yes, PC world.

Says i'm a Scene kid :/ Although there were some pretty dodgy choices lol

You are a Scene Kid! Your hair is your life – it moves from blonde and spiky, to jet black and asymmetric and on to a neon pink beehive, sometimes all in the same day. You need to update your look when you’re moshing at three or four shows a week and documenting it for your public on MySpace, after all. Clothes-wise, you stick with a formula – superskinny jeans and a kiddy tee. Let the hair do the talking.

Ugh, I got Indie Kid. The examples they give are insufferable.

You are an Indie Kid! There’s nothing like the twang of a guitar to get your Converse tapping. Indie Kids are part of a mass – whether that means swaying with their friends at a gig, commenting on Drowned in Sound’s message board or trawling through band profiles on MySpace for the next exciting sound. It’s amazing what can still be done with a guitar, you know.

Oh fan****ingtastic. I'm "an indie scenester". <_<

You are an Indie Scenester! You are at the forefront on the indie scene – you know all the major players. You’re always ahead of the game – moving on to the next thing once everyone joins in. You like to look good and your icons go beyond the centrefold of the NME – your current look is James Dean meets Grace Jones. Just wait – everyone will be wearing it in a year’s time.

You are a Chav! No one likes you but you don’t care. Why would you when you have a high street to hang about on? Grab a bunch of your mates and put in some mooching time, with a bucket of KFC for company. With your matching uniform of trackie pants, Reebok Classics, and gold jewellery, chav isn’t something you grow out of: this is your tribe forever.

Hahahahahahahahahaha.
