What Subculture Do You Associate With?

by **Vashtanaraada** » Sun Feb 22, 2015 3:18 pm

Hey people, just a short and swift thread that I've always wanted to post.
So, post what subculture you think you belong to, and if you know, what faction that you may be within that?

For example, I am a member of the Heavy Metal Subculture, primarily classifying myself as either a thrasher or traditional heavy metaller. (Think Motorhead, Iron Maiden etc.)

Also of note, be careful not to get subcultures and broad social groups confused.

Bronydom (if that counts) and greaser (rockabilly).

I certainly keep the two apart. My love for doo wop culture and muscle cars and imitating Fonzie would probably place me under that category but I have yet to see a James Dean movie.

There's quite a few if fandoms count. If not, I'm a part of geek culture certainly.

Gamer, Metalhead (sort of), Military Brat, Aspie, and R.O.C. and while I wouldn't say I'm otaku or nerd I lean in those directions

Little bit punk, little bit nerdy, little bit trve kvlt. I'm not sure if I qualify as an otaku, but I certainly have strong interests in that direction.

Metalhead, Whovian, "new atheist", NSer, nerddom

A cutesy nerdy punk. Which is totally a thing now.

I'm not sure if I'm in one, since I tend to be in a few but not deep into them, to the point that you'd might as well just categorize me as "twisted."

Slacker mostly, which at this point and age is sad in many ways. I didn't even manage a conversion to 'aging hipster', just plain ol' 90s era Slacker.

I'm in the Hipster Culture, I guess. There was a funny story about How I sort of became a hipster, and at first, I was kinda pissed, but now I just kind of deal with it... I guess...Oh yeah, I am a nerd to! Yay

Bronydom, Aspie World, maybe Geek/Nerd Planet...

And if you count the fact that I am part of a fandom that has most likely died out years ago, the Smurfdom.

Jock, musical enthusiast, metal head, things of that nature. I never identified with one specific sub culture.

by **Britanania** » Mon Feb 23, 2015 3:31 pm

Whovian, mostly. Brony around circles that accept that. I don't really fit in with one group because my sense of style and manner are more alike to the 1940s than they are the twenty-teens.

The alcoholic.

I am a punk, Which makes me a poser. I am a homestuck, which makes me trash. I have been a casual gamer for the last fifteen years which makes me one of the L33test n00bs. And I have a strange if not outright obsessive fascination with a variety of subjects so that makes me a nerd. Also if drug culture is a subculture they have done more to make me feel like my belonging is unconditional than any other culture, seriously drug users can be some of the nicest people.

Nerd, somewhat metalhead, somewhat Illuminati.

I don't associate with subcultures. Subcultures associate with me.

by **Anollasia** » Mon Feb 23, 2015 7:46 pm

I'm kind of in the middle. A little of bit of everything.

Ironic Alabama fan smugness.

EDIT: Related, college football, at least as far as a subculture I'm compelled to talk about enough about on NS.

I don't think of myself as belonging to a subculture, though I do tend to hang out with table-top roleplayers and board gamers. Perhaps that counts.

by **Terrad** » Sat Feb 28, 2015 5:26 am

Autie subculture.

If you don't include "Autie" as a normal culture.

by **Scepez** » Sat Feb 28, 2015 5:33 am

I'm more or less the "I hate everything popular" subculture, if such exists.

by **United Russian Soviet States** » Sat Feb 28, 2015 11:54 am

I associate with the Frozen subculture somewhat.

by **Partybus** » Sat Feb 28, 2015 12:44 pm

I am Hippy (although the 80's were my 60's) hear me roar.

Hipster?
