I'm sure the members won't mind this, and if they do, I am absolutely certain that Steph won't, seeing as how she's in on this.

(Please excuse any blatant hypocracy)
Okay. So there's this prevalent attitude lately, on livejournal and beyond, that there is some sort of special set of requirements for being "uncool". Because "geek" is the new "cool". So, the whole concept of being geeky, uncool, dorky, whatever is to have deviated from the social norm in a (generally speaking) undesirable manner, right? If being geeky is the new ideal, however, then those of us who don't fit the mold (don't know any/enough obscure emo bands, never learned how to knit) suddenly become, in effect, the uncool.
Countless times I've heard some scenester elitist talk about how they were into a band or a hairstyle or an author before it was cool to be into it, berating the general population for buying in as soon as whatever concept happens to be of the moment hits the mass media, at which point said scenesters will automatically discard it for something more obscure and ultimately hip. This type of indie rock Pete mentality (that's right, obscure online comic strip reference, look at me go) ultimately derails any sense of individuality or personal taste, instead seeking out personal expression through sheer novelty and the exclusion of others. I don't give a fuck if you were wearing stripey tights under fishnets before it was "cool" to wear stripey tights under fishnets. Fuck the scene. Fuck lame poseur attitudes. Fuck image.

I know I said the first twelve, but I got impatient. We can start voting now. For now, when someone applies they need 5 'yes' votes to be accepted and 5 'no' votes to be rejected. This will change as we get more members.
