I found this list on a news website under the comments section and thought some of these were downright hilarious. It's a bit long, but check it out anyway.

21. You're under 20 years old and claim to like "extreme music."
22. You think the cops probably want to steal your pot.

25. You love Incubus and don't know that there was once a Florida thrash metal band by the same name.

A tad repetitive (can't they find anyone better or more relevant to flog than Slipknot?) but methinks you've nailed that. Now take care of the punk version of mallcore and everyone here SHOULD be lining up to have your babies.

Well yeah, I don't agree with all of it. But a lot of them were dead on.

This one kind of pissed me off though:

108. You think Tool is talented because they sound different from other mallcore bands

Saw it once before, didn't think it was all TOO funny, but kind of amusing. Some points are true. Rips on Machine Head too much, and considering they're a good band...bleh.

I don't see many of the Tool breed of mallcore around here... Maybe that's not an east coast thing?

Quite amusing, though.

117. You think people who don't like mallcore can't take "hard music."
72. You dress in a gothic way, listen to stuff such as Marilyn Manson and Korn but have the nerve to call yourself a non-conformist.

fucking word on both accounts, especially the latter.
i'd say most of the key points are dead on. i have but a minor discrepancy or two:

93. You've hit a "gravity bong."

hey now, whether i have or have not 'hit a gravity bong' should not really be a factor on whether or not i'm eligable for being hardocore..

75. You claim you don't like boy bands or rappers but you hang around with most of their fans.

meh, just because my friends might now listen to the music i do.. i think that one is a little silly. I'm not going limit potential friends by music alone. As much as i love music, it's not really the deciding factor on most major issues in my life..

having a diverse base group of friends, i beleive, is actually beneficial. it can give you many different perspectives on life, an important skill if you ask me.

i've only used one twice, and i hear it tends to waste the weed a bit...

Gavin, yes, the waterfall is pretty groovey.

Bottle tokes rock if you know how to get the hash to tobacco ratio just right.l

The best thing, when the mall goths follow me around the Chapters when I'm trying to enjoy the theological writings of CS Lewis and other writers. One of them was painted up with inverted crosses and was sporting an oh so Satanic Three Day's Grace T-Shirt and reffered to GG Allin as a fake punk.
