Flaming Phalanges!:

Well...a group of ten chavs waited for me outside tesco at lunch time just so they could throw 2 litre bottles of coke at me as I walked back to school...and it was cos I am the red haired goth.

to this day i do not know what chavs are

same

from what i hear of "scene kids" they don't sound good. at all.

question_everything:

1. there are no goths left, they died out many years ago
2. there are no punks left
3. preps are poeple who attend a prepatory/private school
4. neds?

i have been called a goth, twice by my brother, for no real reason, and once again, today, by someone else. i have also been called a punk, twice in a few hours, i almost fell off my chair. it took me a very hard time to stop laughing, so wrong were they

What is a nerd, though? *sighs*

Lol. I had like 5 bracelets on one hand and I'm sitting at a desk and Stefan calls me a punk. o.O; I'm like cracking up and I said "Oh, err YEAH! So fucking punk." yeahh. People are misguided.

nerd:
noun: an insignificant student who is ridiculed as being affected or studying excessively

as for a ned. i gave no idea, unless by neds she meant nerds

i don't see the point in this thread. they make it, we come and post about how much stereotyping sucks blah blah blah.

sorry, i should have explained. NEDs is what we call chavs up here in scotland - it means Non Educated Delinquent. the kind of people who think they dont need to go to school and who will throw something at anyone who doesnt look like a clone of them.

LOL. LOL. LOL. That's so hypocritical.

I get called either a 'punk'/'skater' or a nerd. Yeah. I like to say I'm a "FUCKING SMART SK8RRRRR WHO LYKS PUNK". Not really. I like to say I'm Bam. Which leaves people to believe I'm a skater. Although there's actually a story behind that.

i just hate when people think they know you because of how you dress and what you look like. noone can take the time to actually get to KNOW the people they're making fun of.

oh well.

my brother called me a goth the first time as i was listening to LP very loudly. oh yeah, they're SUCH heavy metal and the otehr time, he turned teh lamp on and the light was in my eye. and i said "ow" heh. my brother doesn't know what goth is or punk for that matter. you'd think a 16 year old would. heh. he called Billie a goth. and he called GD + sp + gc "a bunch of punks"

i also got called a grep today. whihc apparently is, or so i assume a gothic prep. i'm only a prep coz of the school i go to. heh. that baord was funny today. and as fir a goth, apparently i wsa acting like one

I get called a goth or emo by all the people aty my school.. I'm not one... but it's just because I'm dfferent to them.
It annoys me when people judge people without trying to get to know them first.

I get random people on the street calling me a goth sometimes, it's ridiculous. I get a few people at school not wanting to try and get to know me, because I'm 'weird'. It's just stupid

i'm called a nerd often, just because i usually know the answers to things
i don't have a problem with it
but for some reason i get along with people in other 'groups'
i mean, i ate lunch with the popular people a few times and they didn't mind

i got called a punk, goth, emo and even a chav once. (I dont think the person hu called me a chav actually knew wot it was tho. ) But i get along wit ppl in other 'groups' too. Theres loadsa chavs in ma class, and i get along wit most of them.
