What is a "Scene Kid"? Are you?

[ClouD]

Jdeadevil showed me a video today of these...things. Bed hair + bitchy = Scene Kid? If not, please explain. Oh, and if you're a "Scene Kid", please do post in here explaining what you represent. This thread may evolve into a trap. I believe these Scene Kids are nothing but rainbow coloured emos. If they are, they will be identified and destroyed.

I have scene hair, but unless the hair is qualification I wouldn't consider myself scene. I prefer gangster.

[Xibran123]

A scene kid is just an excuse emos use so people don't call them emo.

You mean those 80s kids with the leather jackets, hella tight pants and shit?

[aceofspades]

i more simple way of saying what a scene kid is quite simply a goth kid with color. My ex. was scene...well she was more of doing it just to fit in. She is a liar about everything and does everything just to fit in. One of my best friends (girl I have known for a year) was scene but she actually pulled it off pretty well and didn't seem like a total poser like everyone else.

scene means they dress emo/goth but aren't/don't want to be labeled as such

From How to Be a Scene Kid wiki page: "While a contemporary term for hipster or bohemian and other insiders of art related movements, scene kids are also associated with listening to screamo, techno, punk rock, indie rock, and hip hop, and other forms of unconventional music." Although I don't agree with the first line, since hipsters and bohemians are other very specific steretypes; the rest is a good description and the article itself gives more insight on what exactly "scene" means. Basically, these are the kids that think being associated with a certain music scene or art scene is cool, but aren't actually interested in or good at anything and so they latch on to the all encompassing "scene". They are your typical attention grabbing little children who want others to look up to them just for being them and not for actually doing anything worthy of praise. Basically, they like being seen and will do whatever it takes to grab at the limelight. They look up to internet phenomena types like Jeffree Star, Tila Tequila and Chris Crocker who managed to get famous for doing absolutely nothing.

So they want to be called Scene kids now? Edit: Basically, these are the kids that think being associated with a certain music scene or art scene is cool, but aren't actually interested in or good at anything and so they latch on to the all encompassing "scene".

Oh God, that just described about half the kids at my high school. 0_0

Scene kids are on the surface basically just emo kids. But don't say that to their face, they don't like it. The main difference between emos and scene kids is that, scene kids tend to care more about their appearance than their actual emotions; a major faux pas in the emo community. Scene kids are a lot less depressed and a lot more...neon. Appearance wise scene kids are very similar to emos, but attitude wise they couldn't be more different. Scene kids go out of their way to appear to be adorable. They show how adorable they are by worshipping Hello Kitty (arguably the most loveable mouth less cartoon cat ever) making obscure references to ninjas, and roaring at people for no obvious reason...RAWR. Scene kids also have a dictionary that the majority of people do not have access to. They can be quite difficult to understand at times, but usually you can work out what information they are trying to convey by sounding out the word to recognise them phonetically. Example: RAWWR = To utter a loud, deep, prolonged sound, especially in distress, rage, or excitement. Kayyy = In proper or satisfactory operational or working order. Awshum = Expressing awe. Kiiid = The young of a similar animal, such as an antelope or goat. Bikthx = A female canine animal, especially a dog. Baaaby = A very young child; an infant. A lot of scene spelling consists of adding another letter to whatever letter in a specific word has the longest sound. Other scene lingo includes "rad", "Ace", "stellar" "Oh-em-gee" and pretty much any sort of cheesy slang from the 1980s is good. Also they use abbreviations a lot, especially when they're uncomfortable, they always try to make sure that no one knows what they mean. Example: "I'm going to the mall" would be IGTTM. Because a short cut to conveying happy-go-luckiness, is to not write prober fully formed sentences. Scene kids can most likely be found on Myspace or other social networking sites such as Facebook, Stickam, Buzznet and Bebo. Where they play an interesting scene game the goal of which is rather simple; to have an equal number of friends and photos...and they have a lot of photos. Between taking pictures and adding friends, they fill their social networking time by putting up eye sore backgrounds and ear bleeding music. When not on the internet, scene kids can be spotted at shows. Shows are important, and all scene kids know everything about their music. A favourite pass time of scene kids is to get to know some local bands, be their friends, and then brag about it! One more thing; real scene kids never admit they are scene, this makes them look like posers and nobody wants to be seen as a poser because they're no fun!

This is so informative! Where are those Scene Kids though? Do they not come to DV? I would think pseudo-emo-attention-grabbing applies quite a lot!
