Thinking you're a punk would be type of conformist thought that would automatically disqualify you from being a punk.

Or would it?

oh fucking wonderful. Now reality is starting to invert and collapse onto itself.
Thanks Gary.

Best consult the punk rule book.

Punk is the ideologic and musical opposite to counter punk

I think you've nailed what i find funny about the whole thing.

In musical terms it should be indefinable, but it grew into a self limiting animal. The humans did that, and thats what i find funny in a peoples front of judea kinda way.

Punk is defined as the set of things that are not definable.

The guy heamorraging rep points for mentioning the beatles obviously, the rest of them are conforming.

Yup for sure. Going to the forbidden country to play music by people of colour. His voice was great on those ones.

John Lennon's wife used to beat him up. That's what drove him to suicide.

AIR SUPPLY - I'm All Out Love was the best call.

I called myself Sugar Plum Fairy on another forum because with all the noise grinders on there it was the most rebellious thing I could come up with.

At the end of the day punks end up being Libertarians, and tell everyone they stay up as late as they want.

(anarcho) libertarians? (more emphasis on personal freedom than anarchism).

the Americans have bollocksed up this word.

I actually find this all quite interesting.

In and around my local, there's loads of younglings who would call themselves punks. I say in and around because a lot of them drink cans around the corner and then come into the pub to watch free live punk music. Which I don't think is punk.

There's loads of olders too, who I seem to gravitate more to (maybe I'm getting old). They certainly all have had more punkish lives than any of the younglings. The olders may not look like punks now, but the drinks they pay for at the bar pay for everything else. I'd like it if the younglings bought at least one pint. Then they'd at least have a glass that they could use to pour their cans into, and then think no one has noticed. Amateurs. Amateur Punks.

A while ago I was working with a (when he was young) very punky boss, and there was a punky looking youngling doing punky looking things working next to us. My boss went "I bet you know so-and-so person who is about your age that we know". Young man was impressed.
"Yeah I do actually, how did you know that?"
"Well you're wearing the uniform"
