5 things every scene kid needs

What are the 5 things every emo scene kid needs and should not be able to live without? (excluding an emobucket account of course)

1.) Vinyl Records
How can you call yourself emo and not own at very least 1 vinyl record? Listening to 80’s and 90’s emo, or any old school vinyls is totally scene. Their usually cheaper than cd’s, and you can be guaranteed that most of your friends can’t say they spent last night listening to Falling Forward - Hand me Down, on vinyl… I can hear it now - “that kid is so scene, he has like fity vinyls”

2.) 3000 friends on a social networking site
Whether it is Myspace, hi5, friendster, or emobucket, every true scene kid needs a high friend count. It doesn’t matter if 500 of your friends are bands you have never listened to, or cute girls you’ve never talked to, all that matters is that you have more friends than anyone you know. Duh.

3.) Flair
Okay, I have to admit I’m sitting here watching “Office Space”. If you have seen this movie, you know what I’m talking about.

Anyways, every scene kid needs some flair. Pins on your backpack, stickers, bracelets, scarves, tattoos, piercings, whatever you like. Flair is scene, and if you want to be a true scene kid, you better have some awesome flair. I could say accessories, but flair just sounds so much better. If you’ve never seen office space, and you have worked in an office, go watch it now.. Mmm kay..

4.) Ipod
Music on the go. The white head phones. It’s a commodity if your 50, but if your scene, it’s a necessity.

5.) A Shoulder to cry on
Every emo/scene kid needs a should to cry on from time to time (or more than not). Do an emo kid a favor today and let them cry on your shoulder.

Don’t have a shoulder to cry on? Get a blog. Tell the world about your new CD, haircut, or why your life sucks today as it did yesterday and will tomorrow. Whatever you do with it, it’s emo to pour your heart out over a keyboard. Though, posting on the forums or a blog just doesn’t do it like the real thing (crying on a shoulder).

Well.. That’s it ladies. Having everything on this list won’t make you emo, and you probably don’t need any of this.

    This is shit.
    Emo isnt the same as scene, dumbshit.
    Why don’t you do your study right?
    Scene is bright fluoro rainbow with lots of vintage clothes and amazing dyed teased hair.
    Emo?
    Thats black grey and red.
    Black or dyed red hair with a fringe. no teasing at all.

    Bahahahahahahahaha.
    Sorry it just amuses me how people try to fit in to this category called “scene”
    If you like the stuff wear the stuff, if you like “emo” stuff or “goth” stuff or “chav” stuff.. worrev!!!
    Just wear it!
    But don’t go round insisting that you’re a “scene kid” or an “emo kid” because that just proves you’re not O.o No one likes a wannabe yanno.
    Just be yourself.
    Stop trying to be cool, or noticed, or popular, or anything else that you’re clearly not.
    And stop confusing the generation people!
    So yeah, if you like the style of a “scene kid” just wear it.
    It’s like dying your hair red and saying “I’m a natural redhead”
    WannabeFM!!!!!
    Seriously.
    It’s called modification.
    Don’t label you muppets.
    It’s just lying to yourself to make you like yourself that little bit more :’)
    Oh and by the way when you think this will make other people like you/worship you worreva…
    It won’t
    and if people like you… doesnt mean you’re gonna like yourself now does it :)
    wake up people.
    Stop trying to fit in to cliques and live your fucking life.
    Tarr

    Ok.
    Don’t make fun of scenes.
    Emo And Scene
    are tottally dif..
    emo is all dressed in
    black constantly
    cutting and shit.
    scene is kind of similar.
    we do not cut ourself.
    we dress sometimes in bright
    colors..
    but i think some ppl
    are confuzzled when
    they want to be scene.
    u dont just turn scene.
    your born this way.=]

    Ok one not all emos cut and two noones born “scene” or “emo” there labels,when “scene kids” learn that these are all just label crap they wouldint give a shizz of what people think. And dude stop calling your self scene.. If you have to call yourself scene your proable just a kid that went to hottopic bought four dollar coontails and tease your hair. Yeah your REALLY scene xD

    Says somebody calling themselves “MojoMurder”.
    Nobody pops out thier mama loving Hello Kitty and tight pants, trust me. You like it when you’re 12 and see kids at the mall so you go on Yahoo Answers and ask “I saw this gurl today with lyke tottaly rad hair. What label is she??!?!” and Wikihow is your next destination. Labels are just fashoins, you shouldn’t go around saying you love Hawthorne Heights when all you know is “Ohio is for lovers”. And don’t ever, EVER call yourself “____ Chaos”, Fucktard.

    Whatever happened to “Being scene is about being original”
    When all scene’s were different but called Scene.
    Wow. Maybe just like humans. We’re all different, but yet we choose to follow eachother like sheep?
    If you like it, wear it. But if you saw someone else wearing it and thought it looked cool, so you go out and but exactly the same stuff so you’ll look just as cool, that’s not being scene.

    Personally I HATE labels.
    There for soup cans not people.
    You don’t need vinyl records or millions of “friends” on myspace. and as for the shoulder to cry on…. I thought they were called friends. Or are people who are labeled scene to cool for friends?
    Oh no. Now every single 12 and 13 year old is gunna shut themselvs in there room, make a blog and pretend to be emo. but around othe people they’ll be as bright as a button. ’cause they feel it’s “compulsary” to look cool.

    The whole “Be yourself” thing isn’t just for your benefit. But your “friends”, how would you feel if it turned out that one of your friends was COMPLETELY fake and didn’t really like all of the stuff she wears or thought your hair looked ridiculous.
    I have this arguement day in and day out.
    People call me scene and I rip there heads of x))

    and as for TayBayyBayy oh my shitt. Talk about attention seeker… unless your true self is an obnoxious prick. it’s people like yew that makes little kids think it’s cool not to be themselves. idiot.

    Anyway. Peace out. x
