Punks aren't punk

Guess what? All the punks who think they are giving "The Man" the finger by dressing like Marilyn Manson- aren't punks at all. How is this possible you ask? Well, ALL PUNKS DRESS THE SAME. Ohhh. So in order to dress punk, you would have to dress really really really differently- like possibly not wearing clothes at all, OR you are conforming to a subculture. Have I lost you?

Let me illustrate this a bit more clearly.

Clothing Executive: So what are we going to do with all these punk kids who have money?
Another Suit: Well how about we start a store called something really stupid-
Clothing Executive: Hows about "Hot Topic."
Another Suit: What the fuck does that have to do with being punk? What the hell does that mean?
Clothing Executive: Kids are stupid, all we have to do is get angry kids to sit behind the counters and sell shit and WE ARE SET.

See? Do we understand class? Last lesson.

Punk music, which actually can be pretty damn good- (homework: download Lucky Boys Confusion, Bad Religion and Flogging Molly)- has been SOLD OUT to MTV. Punk music now is represented by..... Good Charlotte!! and..... Sum 41!!

Woooo Hooo!! Hot damn.

And boy, they are really out saying something. I mean, they are HARDCORE. I mean, thats what Carson Daly said...

MTV Blows.
