sexyhankysneeze Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 In terms of like the sub-culture you are:* Preppy/Popular* Redneck* Nerd/Geek* Indie/Hipster* Gangsta/Wigga* Rocker/Metalhead/Punk* Emo/Scene* Gothhow would you describe yourself?Personally i am kind of a rocker/indie mix with a lot of punk and some goth/preppy mixed in Link to comment
alias Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'd say I'm 70% nerd, 30% rocker/punk. Kind of a weird combination now that I think of it. Link to comment
VoOs Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Hmm. A mix of movie geek/literature nerd and indie/industrial rocker, perhaps? Link to comment
tma Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Wow! I feel really old. I haven't really thought about these subgroupings since I was a teen . Errr.... I'm me. Hmmm... I guess if someone categorized me it would be a nerd/preppy combo. Link to comment
EmeraldThread Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'm definitely a nerd, no doubt about it. Generally an anime/manga/book/English nerd, but I've got some redneck, too. xD Link to comment
March Hare Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Man, subcultures are even more undefinable than music genres. I have no flamin' clue. Back in the heydays some friends and I used to call ourselves "neohippies", though. I guess I could go with that. After all, "neo-hippie" can mean pretty much anything. "I span the genres, Vince. They call me the genre spanner.""...They call you the spanner."-- The Mighty Boosh Link to comment
SomethingClever Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 such a freakin hippie. not my fault, my whole dang state's fault. I also like hipster things, but I'm not a hipster.(said the hipster) Link to comment

Chanel_no5 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Whatever I like at the moment. If I like to dress up and wear makeup and high heels, I will. If I want to shuffle around in sweat pants and an oil-stained T-shirt, I will. And everything in between.That's the beauty of life - when you realise you don't have to choose just one thing.

webmeistro Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Nerd, with a splash of indie and rocker. I _hate_ hipsters, though. Can you be indie without being a hipster? Link to comment
lovelylovexoxo Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Depends on the moment lol... Link to comment
vote_for_pedro Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Can you be indie without being a hipster?Sweet Christ, I hope so! I'm definitely way outside the mainstream, but I am absolutely not a douchey hipster. When I was a teenager it was called colossally uncool nerd. I don't even know anymore! I'm just me. Screw the categories.I know this will make me sound old as dirt, but what the hell is scene? Sounds like someone making an ass of themselves just for the sake of being looked at. Link to comment

Mash Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 100% nerdtron.I don't hang comics on my wall or anything overly-bizarre. I just kick ass at video games. So that makes me a nerd. Link to comment
smooshi Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 When I first saw this topic, I was like: "What?" I am who I am. I have never tried to classify myself as a member of some subculture.But... ugh... I guess I should try now.I am a big nerd/geek sometimes.... And a rocker, too. I used to be such an emo before, so I guess I still have a bit of that aura around me... Link to comment

I guess I should try now.Nobody's forcing you, you know. If you don't want to do it, then don't! That's the best thing about THIS subculture: no peer pressure of any kind. (Yes, I do consider this community a subculture. Arguments against more than welcome!) Link to comment

I sort of thought that it was a general "describe yourself thing" and I had to figure out the subculture thing. I'm just me as well. It's fine! If you identify w/ a certain type of culture that's fine, but you don't have to. Link to comment
Deadsh0t Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Pureblood nerd and metalhead. I've noticed that the two usually go hand-in-hand. A lot of nerds are metalheads, but not all metalheads are nerds. Hmm,.... Link to comment

Heavy-Chevy Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I'm definitely a mixture of nerd (because I'm a computer Tech guru and I like games) and rocker/metalhead (because I just love screaming rock & roll ) Though I don't dress nerdy nor do I have comics and posters hanging on my wall. When I was a teenager, I used to be into goth fashion but I've long since gotten away from that. Now I'm more into semi-preppy kind of styles. TBH, I don't really fit completely into any subculture and I've never really liked the idea of a sub-culture. Just be whoever the hell you want to be! Link to comment
