on 1/4/2007 I had no idea that being a 'real' punk made you illiterate too. In case you failed to notice, this e-how is called 'How to create a punk rocker COSTUME'. COSTUME. No one is trying to BE a punk, it's just a damn costume. Do wiccans call 'witches' at Halloween wannabes? No. Because they realise it is all a bit of fun. If you really can't understand that then I'm surprised you even managed to type your own ridiculous comments. Get a life. Collectively.

on 11/22/2005 To be punk, the first tip is to be angry and tough. The second tip is to get plaid pants and sew patches, zippers and studs on them. Punk is about expressing your individuality and making everything you own "more your own." Be creative in what you make. You don't want to copy other people's ideas. The last tip is to do your hair. If you want to spike your hair with liberty spikes and you have long hair, use a mixture of gel, glue and gelatin (that's what I use). When it's all up, finish it with hair spray. If you want to dye your hair a bright blue or green, I suggest you peroxide your hair before you do it.

on 11/22/2005 Alright punk is my life. I go to every show I can afford to go to (which means mostly just the local ones) and am proud to contribute to the scene with my own band. I dont really like the idea of a bunch of morons dressing up 'punk' but if you're gonna do it... at least do it right. First of all PUNK = POOR and screew all the rich "punks" who will start crying when I say that... Punk started out as, and will always be, a working class movement. That said... go buy a cheap band shirt from some local band, or just ware a white tank top or something. Get a leather jacket... don't spend a whole bunch of money on it... just go to a thrift store and buy one for 10-15 bucks... make sure its beat up already... I've spent many a night on the streets sleeping in my jacket and it gets banged up... I wouldn't recomend putting more than one or two patches on preferable on the arms or back... a couple pins on the laple... please dont stud your jacket... a studded jacket is the life work of many a punk... we have to buy them a handfull at a time and we take the to put each in, if you want to avoid insult... DONT STUD. throw on a pair of tight jeans (bondage pants are for rich kids, unless of course they're DIY but that takes ALOT of time and skill) As for hair... it doesn't really matter, but to keep up the image eather shave your head and get a hawk (6 to 12 inches) or if you're not that gutsy do liberty spikes (I've done mine up to 16 inches and I've seen longer) us Knox geletin its cheep and holds forever... you can find it in any grocery store next to the Jello. Alright now go out and try to fool me.

on 11/22/2005 well being a fireman is a job, being a punker is a way of life. and it hurts me too when people dress up like punkers for halloween. being a punker is a way of life and a way of feeling and believing. so no matter what you say it is offensive.
