Also, sorry if I came off as a "sarcastic prick," but that's just in my nature. See, everyone on my mother's side of the family was sarcastic, and everyone on my father's side of the family were pricks. It's just in my genes.


Excuses. You have control and I'm sure you know what manners are. You'll just wind up alienating yourself and causing unnecessary problems. If we all said exactly what we thought all the time then the world wouldn't function, sometimes being a bit more mindful of one's words goes a long way.

Actually it's just a way for pathetic, talentless man-boys to get into an unattractive girl's pants by pretending to have feelings. Now, I'm not sure if you're a teenager who attends high school. If not, then I'm sorry to inform you that in this ridiculously sex-obsessed day and age virtually everything NT teenagers do is just a part of their master plan to get laid. I'm very sorry if you hadn't realized this by now.


Yes, I am a teenager who attends Uni and I'm very sorry that you have such a near-sighted, ignorant view of the world.

I'm afraid I don't see how ignoring something that really bothers me and letting it eat away at my mind is constructive. See, I have a little thing called Asperger Syndrome. Part of that particular ailment is obsessing about things. Since I really have nothing better to think about, I tend to rant incessantly about a particular problem in my head from time to time, be it a large-scale political issue or a stupid teenager thing. Sometimes my ranting pours out of my fingers and into the internet, which is most unfortunate for everyone. To learn more about Asperger Syndrome and the miserable cynics like myself it can produce, go to www.wrongplanet.net. That's a great website full of fun and interesting people and a few sarcastic pricks.


If it's that much of an issue for you then perhaps you need to talk to a professional. Venting it on others is unhealthy and only leads to trouble. Oh, and thanks for the lesson, but I know what WP is - I post here sometimes.

Unless you're completely devoid of personality (which may be the case idk), being part of a minority doesn't make you stand out nearly as much as being yourself. Individualism is about the only thing MTV hasn't capitalized on and turned into a bloody fad. One day they probably will, though. In the future kids will go around calling each other "indivies" just like "goths" or "jocks," because that's how stupid people are.


Any characteristic, belief, attitude, idea, clothing that an 'individual' could possibly exhibit has already been done 1000's of times over. There's no such thing as an individual anymore. You just may attract more attention because people aren't used to seeing your 'type' - sounds like a minority or deviation from the 'norm' to me.

Being 'yourself' isn't a new idea.

Doesn't have to be profound, I just wish I could come across someone who isn't a mindless carbon copy of some TV idol or social archetype. Maybe things are different in other parts of the world, but where I'm from people might as well not even have names because they're all so damned similar. There are less than 10 exceptions at my school that I've observed in my 4 years of being here.

Frankly though, I really don't care. Teenagers are atrociously stupid and the only things they care about are sex and money. They can play their ret*d little games all they want, but I've got more important things to worry about.

A final note on emos: if they really wanted to express their emotions, they'd spend their time and money on art/music lessons instead of maintaining those ridiculous Hot Topic costumes they wear.

With all due respect, you're all talking about honoring others' opinions, yet you're bashing them anyway... I doubt that anyone is going to change their opinion, regardless of how (un)informed you are all, so it doesn't matter.

I'm NOT bashing todds opinion,i'm just saying that even if he hates emo's,he should at least TOLERATE them,or else he's no better than a bigoted NT MTV worshipper.

I have a style similar to scene, it’s essentially my own style, but it probably looks quite scene, dark clothes generally, shirts are almost always black pull-over or whatever the word for em is, no buttons, with something like a skull or flame design, i’ll generally go for something that looks goth/emo and has a quite interesting logo. I’ll usually wear dark, baggy jeans too and have styled my hair, although that doesn’t really fit any style, I just like the look and my friends think it looks alright.

I listen to a -lot- of Emotive Hardcore, most of the music I listen to fits that genre.

I sometimes mix with the scene people, but i’m usually found amongst a small group of people who don’t really fit anything, not necessarily misfits, just people who don’t -try- to conform to any style, like myself, and just wear and listen to what they want, not what is necessarily ‘cool’.

When did I say I was intolerant of emos? Tolerance means putting up with something. If I was intolerant of them I'd be attacking every emo that walked by, which I definitely don't do. Some of my brothers friends are emos and they come over to my house and I put up with it. I don't start arguments with them or point out how utterly stupid I think their lifestyle is, I just make small-talk with them or whatever until they go do something else. Emos have slept in my home, and I didn't try to smother them with a pillow in their sleep or anything. I don't like them and if someone makes a topic about emos I'm going to state that I don't like them, but that doesn't mean I'm not tolerant of them. Get a dictionary you noobs.
