OK, I think it's finally happened. I have finally come to the point where I have to admit I'm old and don't get it with kids today. I was hip with things up thru "emo"...I mean I hate it, but I know what it was..but now it's "Are you Emo or are you Scene" ..and I'm totally lost...wtf is "Scene" other than like glam rock emo? (And am I dating myself by using the word "glam rock"? I am , aren't I?)

I'm going to go be old and cry in my cornflakes and get psyched to see Jane's Addiction. 'Cause I'm fucking old now.

I think scene is like emo, but without the angsty music requirements.
'scenesters'?

"scene" as in scenester as in hipster.
emo kids and hipsters look about the same, tho hipsters are usually missing the tear.
both come with terrible music on their ipods.

And I was looking at some music message board and some guy was saying "Oh, thank god a new Green Day album this year! Bring back punk rock like when I was a kid ten years ago! You know the good, real punk!"
And I said...Green Day? Real punk? That was...ten years ago??!! oh fuck...
And then my back went out...

www.fourfa.com - emo was a real music genre in the 90's... then kids turned into a clothing/lifestyle that you could purchase from hot topic.
it's a shame really. it used to be a great genre.
- Yeah I know. I got that..now...I'm lost..TheBlueOne

So, "scene" is hipster? That doesn't sound right...

is it wrong to hate teenagers, and everything they stand for?

I hate how all the styles seemed to have merged together. Hip-hop/skater/punk/emo/goth/met...
Everybody looks the same these days. Nothing original.
- Back in my day, it was all about beating up the other kid..not all this mixing crap...TheBlueOne
- haha....the funny thing is I don't think these kids get along even though they all look alike.designbot

honestly, in my mind, emo kids, scenesters, the whole fucking lot are all hipsters anyway.
- so does it really make a difference to spend time worrying about their sub culters?anxious_arms

- Hipsters buy vintage and emo buy in Hot TopicAmbushstudio

I thought hipsters were like twenty-somethings that lived in Brooklyn or Austin or trendy parts of SF and ironically wore fedoras with Bon Jovi tshirts over tight jeans....this "scene" thing looks like Emo's who suddenly discovered cosplay harajuku styles...
- doesn't matter where they are from. but it sounds like you're on the right track. are you writing a report?anxious_arms
- chossy0

scene refers to people who are done up at an event to be seen at an event
hipsters are people who are less done up and are at an event to partake at an event
emo are people who bridge the fashion gap between goth and hipster and are at an event to mope, meet other emos, and write shitty poetry about it later- wow. you've read the manual obvs.anxious_arms
- No, there's apparently a whole "scene" lifestyle thing...TheBlueOne
- yeah, its the youth equivalent of what was considered metrosexual a few years ago.ninjasavant
- these groups keep up the act throughout the day, they don't just hang up their glitter and skinny belts when they go home.ninjasavant
- scenes try to emulate people like paris hilton, heidi montag, etc who get paid to do nothing more than be seen placesninjasavant
