Go to school

Meet people

Don't give a shit about this sort of thing

1. Forget ever hearing about this shit.
2. Grow up.
3. ???
4. Look back on your past self with less shame.

join the antisocial shut-ins by surfing 4chan.

As cliched and gay as it sounds, just be yourself and hang out with people you naturally get along with. If you join a subculture just for the sake of joining one, you'll only end up disappointed.

BUT, out of ones that are easy to access, probably emo or goth (note that they're also the shitstainiest ones). Hipster+preppy require money and somewhat social skills, cyber requires weird fucked-upness, and thug will get your ass capped if you're not serious about it.

How to rave: Wave your arms around while holding colored lights with loud music and huge crowds, not that hard.

Get out of high school, realize that people are people, and any identity definition based on style choices and other aesthetics are dubious at best.

Also, Hipster looks like Spike.

>>2937838
Actually thinking about it this applies to every ronrey ;_; thread EVER

>>2937825
weeaboo is a readily accessible subculture.

>>2937825
Why the fuck would you want to join a subculture?

Fucking 15 year olds.

I get along with people, but i can't go out/on partien with them, that's what i want

Raver look colorful and dance
Goths dance, too

Depends on what psychological problems you are afflicted with. Punks and hipsters for instance are attempting to justify the contrast between their inflated egos and their actual impact on the real world.

You're dumb for wanting this. Pretty much all those subcultures will leave you pressured into doing something you're not comfortable with. So, when you're a drug addict, dick sucking, subhuman, mere shell of what you used to be, you'll finally realize what bullshit your subculture was you will inevitably end up ditching all your friends from that group to clean your life up. Your friends will remain in their niche until they're ready to clean up, and none of them will support you as you try to change your life. You'll be left friendless and crawling back the people you knew back when. Or you'll just become a lame guy with no friends at all, and maybe a g/f who resents you because she has no alone time.

That said: if you want to join a subculture, go to events. See bands you like that fall into whatever identity you're trying to attain. Want to be a punker? Go see punk shows, get drunk, seem like fun, talk to people.

Preppy is easier to get into than you'd think, it just requires a pretty major lifestyle change. Rave scene is extremely easy to get into, ask someone on E for their phone number, they'll give it to you.

WHAT THE HELL IS A CYBER. I have never witnessed such a vile creature. Is that the new word for "raver" or some sort?

You fuckin' teenyboppers.

> subcultured people

lol

>>2937933
I believe cyber falls into the industrial scene.

I'm not that familiar with any of these absurd subcultures, but I'd choose whatever the fuck Cyber is because the other ones look like they take themselves seriously. Or at least more seriously than the blue haired girl.

>>2937921
if you want to rave and dance with goths

then go to raves and goth clubs? it's not that hard. Both types of events are out there for anyone that loves the music, you don't need a fucking RAVER CARD or some shit

Just do this, and no need to be a fucking poser and 'join a subculture.' You will make friends with people at these events and hang out with them. You don't need to specifically do some shit to 'join' them

>>2937941
Jesus fucking Christ shitballs. I'm glad I'm out of the stereotype era.

>>2937941
No, that's a rivethead.

>>2937825
You seem to have mistaken a Carmen Sandiego cosplayer for a goth chick.

Damn man, these faggot subcultures are like the gayest thing ever. Also totally useless.

They are like, for mindless faggots with no personalities, social lambs who sooo need to "belong to a group" because they worth shit alone.

Jesus Christ.

>>2937964

no shit!

me: car mechanic artist software engineer teacher psytrance dance/raver ex-punk grad student artfag gayfag gun nut feminist

usually I just say, "I make stuff"

I guess maybe GLBTQ is a subculture? I mean we have our own building on campus :3

Why don't you just dress in clothes that you find comfortable and are appealing to your eye, and do things that you find enjoyment in?

>>2937984

That's GLBTQF

When will the Fursucution stop!

>>2937989
There aren't nearly enough Fs in the world to explain how angry I am right now

Never enough

>>2937853

Agreed.

The people you hang around generally have similar interests and personalities, viewpoints, whatever. The main thing is you hang out with them because you get along with them. If you're hanging out with them because you think it makes you look cool, you're not going to be happy. You probably won't have shit in common with them and won't ever have that bond between you and the other individuals.

If you're actively seeking out a subculture because you think it might be fun and something new, you've probably got a 60/40 chance at finding a place to fit in.

In high school ages and ages ago, I used to be goth. When I got out, I got into industrial music like OhGr and Skinny Puppy and VnV Nation and shit so I started hanging out with Cybergoth people. Those people are fucking idiots and going nowhere in life. I used to dress like them (gas mask, goggles, latex, etc) in respect of enjoying the music and being a part of that musical subculture, but quickly got away from it when I met so many just dumb fucking losers in that subculture.

Now I don't really have a subculture I belong to. I've got hip hop friends, bluegrass friends, metalhead friends, still a very few cybergoth friends, etc. That's what I would propose you do - just be cool with everyone.

Know what I hate?

Folks who make playing video games into a subculture.
Fuck you I just like playing video games.
Don't call me a gamer.

>>2938001

FUCK that word makes me rager harder than any other word. I have not used it, ever.

FUCK

>>2937975

excuse me sir... i have something for you


**GENTLEMAN GAVE YOU +1 INTERNET!**

Fuck those fucktards

>>2937997
>just be cool with everyone.

I have to admit, this sounds sensible
So, how do i do this?
Random showing up in their clubs?

>>2938034

Talk to people
Don't act like a dick

That's pretty much it

Go for emo, or even better mallgoth. That shit's easy as hell to get into. Punk is mid-level. Cyber and Goth require a lot of time/money to get into. Preppy requires you to come from a rich family. Thug'll get you killed. Hipster is probably the hardest, since it requires encyclopedic knowledge of obscure bands, an understanding of music history, and an ability to listen critically and deconstruct music, or at least the brains to fake it convincingly.

Cyberpunk's dead.
Hipster is...well...just look at him...
Goths are fucked up.
Thug is shit
Emo will die
preppy is for collegefags.

Also, that guy does not look preppy, he looks normal.

>>2938046
>Hipster is probably the hardest, since it requires encyclopedic knowledge of obscure bands, an understanding of music history, and an ability to listen critically and deconstruct music

I fucking lol'd. Most hipsters I know just pull shit out of their ass and hope nobody notices or gives a fuck.

Pink shirts are nice.

Can someone tell me what the hell is a Cyber?

>>2937853
The stoners are the easiest to get in with, if you can find them. they can dress in any style, but it's usually a kind of hipster/nerd cross. At least in my area.

>>2938034

Often it would stem through clubs but not always. I'd meet people at them, get their info (numbers, myspaces) stay in contact and when they had parties I'd show up and meet their friends and just branch out from there.

Other times it would be at local concerts / local band shows, new people through old friends, parties, tons of things.

Just go meet people, amigo. Provided you're not a complete social weirdo you won't have troubles.

hipster faggots are probally the worst. I tried being one. You will only be accepted if you are stick thin and wear girl pants. I'm a fat fuck.

Also numerous hipsterfags have no ambition beyond growing their vinyl collection and working at starbucks for lie.

At least my taste in music is better now.

>>2938053

Yeah, I guess it depends on where you live. In my town, the few ones that I do see really know their shit.

Of course, that's probably because I live in a small town shithole, and we're like, ten years behind the times. I guess hepsterism hasn't really caught on as the cool thing around here yet.

>>2938001
>>2938018

Thank you!

I don't need to identify myself by some of the media I choose the consume.

I might find video games fascinating (as well as various aspects of its industry) but I'll never call myself a gamer.

Even worse, might start calling others 'hardcore' gamers and yet others 'casual' gamers or whatever other retarded shit they come up with.

I'm not enough of an ass to go on rants about it to my friends though.

Every human needs a "tribe", it seems the majority of people are unaware of this, at least abstractly. With this in mind it should be obvious that you are not limited to one subculture and you can mix various elements of each scene so you appeal to a wider group of people.

At work you could act preppy in order to gain respect and intimidate people without seeming incompetent as a thug would. At college you could mix hipster and prep so you appeal to both abercrombie & fitch garb'd individuals and "rebels". When you are out with your friends you could meld hipster and an element of thug so strangers see you as "street" whilst you maintain conformity with yout hipster friends and the social freedom allowed by being a hipster.

>>2938060

a cybergoth is someone who's dress style has a little bit of goth influence, but looks more space-tech and futuristic. Gas masks, welding goggles, pvc clothing, latex (liquid or not).

Just google it for more info / pics.

>>2938060
Pretend you're an average guy in Blade Runner. There ya go.

>>2937997 I was this guy. I used to hang out with these guys, actually.

This is a "better" picture of what cybergoths more accurately look like.

>>2938095
One of the differences between neanderthals and humans that archaeologists have noted is that humans were the only ones to adorn themselves with trinkets. The need to create an identity using manufactured goods is an innate human need. Why deny yourself satiation?

>>2938132
Worse than guidos.

>>2938145

Truth be told. They're just less roided up and in rages.

fuck off and be yourself... sheesh

>>2938098
but ain't overcoming that needs a sign of maturity?

Identifying yourself with a group is more of a social requirement these days than an actual need, or at least not as important as it was millenniums ago when we lived in actual tribes and the ones excluded from a group starved to death if they weren't eaten by a predator.

>>2938145

I will give them, however, that they don't all look like tanned carbon copies. They definitely aren't all sporting flare out haircuts.

Maybe elements of the way they dress but not looking exactly alike in the way that guidos do. There's a greater level of fashionable flexibility.

>>2937825

It's funny how all of the pictures are horrible representations of the word underneath.

Shows how out of touch you are.

OPs pic is rather inacurrate.

>>2938053
True. My friends always demand we hang out with this one hipster kid and all he does is make shit up, he's just so stupid he makes shit up about stuff I know or current events he doesn't really know about, so he gets fucking embarrassed all the time.

>>2937825

This is the best subculture you can join.

>>2938165
which "misrepresented" subculture do you belong to?

>>2938228
Real subcultures are people related by a hobby that is not mainstream. Playing wargames, collecting comics, even reading books (thing are sad nowadays) make you part of a subculture. Not wearing ridiculous costumes like if you wanted to join a silly fashion show.

>>2938228
Neo-post-punk-werewolves

easiest subculture to join? angry loner.

I don't know what I am.

If anything it's close to prep though.

You're part of a subculture.

Hi there, fellow robot. <3

convince everyone in that subculture youre somehow cooler than they are. they will love you.
ive done it and it works wonders.
problem is, you have to be slightly cool to begin with...

How to rave:

Purchase the following;
neon sunglasses (thrift store)
colored skinny jeans (thrift store)
multi-colored high top sneakers
printed hoodie (could be expensive, ice creamz, bathing apes etc.. you can find just as good ones at thrift stores)
bright tee (thrift store!)
metallic leggings (costume store / thrift store)
funky hairdo (don't wash your hair for three days, add baby powder, soaks up all grease and makes it easy to mess up and have it stay that way, plus no gel, gel sucks when you start sweating)

Then go to the dollar store and buy metallic/neon beads, glowsticks, glow in the dark w/e else.

Find a rave.

Buy E.

Dance.

Fuck bitches on E.

Repeat.

>>2939062
So anon is just abusing of our trust... I'm hurt.

i don't really belong to a subculture. although, if one HAD to classify me into one of them, it would probably be skater.

Not that faggoty skater that wears skinny jeans/tiedye shirts/ wolf tshirts.

Wow, fashion wise I appear to be a hipster. You learn something new everyday.

>>2939086
Apart from that god awful hair I mean.

i guess i'm a hipster/preppy hybrid
no matter how hard i try to be unique i'll always end up under some stupid subculture's label

Do like me:
i am a bully at school so i get girls.
i am a nerd at home so i can play videgames and have nerd friends.....
easy!

>>2939102
Wear a top hat. It won't help but I find it defuses most issues. "We have to bre-..Wait...What the fuck is with the hat?" "I'm gonna k-...Who are you? Abe Lincoln?" "Hey give me bac-...Nice hat" and so on.

>>2939111
this way is pretty effective.
u have respect i school and outside.
u can stay with hot girls. and when u are home you can play videogames like a pro and have geek friends.
that is pretty awesome!

>>2939069
the chicks with a fan and the separated "sleeves" @ trousers and shirts are awesome.

Prepster reporting in.

>>2939111
The fact you have to be a bully to get girls says a lot about you.

Me, I'm just pretty; I could be sitting there playing D&D (Not that I ever have) and still have women wanting me. Here's the kicker; I don't give a shit about relationships! I could have nearly anyone but I want no one.

>>2939111
That's pretty much what I did in highschool

shit was cash and I got so much tang

>>2939069
What the fuck? he looks like a complete faggot.

People who rave where I live are attractive preps.

I'm a narcissist seeking other narcissists to dominate.

>>2939215
you know, it's how to try to fit in a subculture when you have no cash, fagging it all up.
I always go to raves normal clothed (that is, prep-like), not like some kind of a trash that has $20 for his shit

>>2937853
I don't get along with anybody, I live in a town of rednecks and thugs and from what I hear, it's like that everywhere. I don't want to take such a risk, especially since hating everyone in my town has become such a drain on my social skills. I don't know if I can even converse anymore.

I hate people who can't be comfortable unless they're huddled into large groups smoking weed or drinking. This happened to all but one of my friends and it's putting stress on that friendship too because he's starting to be that way too.

The only thing I miss about childhood and teenage years is being able to go to your friend's house by yourself without a clique gimmick and watch movies. Now, in order to watch movies with my newly stonerized friends, there has to be a god damned party of 6-12 and at least 6 joints, otherwise they won't get out of bed.

NOT ENOUGH METAL IN THIS THREAD!

become a metalhead. u can shouse from many kinds of metal.
start with sum nice (rowrow) powermetal and hardrock.
if u like qick and funny dancemusic -> go scandinavian folkmetal
evil, sad but ready to fight, love forest -> blackmetal or doommetal
gurofag / want to shock ur parents -> deathmetal/goremetal
and so on
grow some hair, meet people, listen to new bands, get some wristbands ---> stay trve

>>2939294
Don't forget to never shower.

>lil wayne
>thug

lol

>>2939274
for advertising themselves as laid back, stoners sure get defensive when you criticize them.

Subcultures are for fags, dress like real man, that means wear a suit.

>>2939294
I used to think like that.
Then I listened to electro house.

You should try it sometimes.

>>2939294
Has not listened to metal.

HOW IS DEATH METAL MORE SHOCKING TO YOUR FUCKING FAMILY THAN BLACK METAL? ARE YOU RETARDED? HAVE YOU EVER HEARD BLACK METAL? HAVE YOU EVER HEARD DEATH METAL? Jesus fuck you're a retard.

Wait, you're probably 15 aren't you? That would explain the stupidity and retardness.

don't die, thread. i'll be back for you later.

Why the fuck would you want to be another unoriginal hipster fag? If you absolutely need to be apart of some "sub culture", try making your own. At least you'll be original.

>>2937825
just wear jeans and a t shirt like me. you can join the subculture of i dont give a shit i am comfy in these clothes....

>>2939344
you are a smartfag. i never affirmed to listen to metal

Raves are fun. People are usually relaxed and the music is nice change to the usual club shit. The only problem is that I need to drink lots of alcohol (I'd do more drugs if they were more easily accessible/not full of shit) to keep me going the whole night.

Remember that there are different kind of electronic music styles. Some people are turned off because they think everything is either tekno or hardtrance.

just dress in what looks good on you. For most people they actually look best in preppy clothes but choose to dress all faggy.
