Weirdest subcultures?

[Persuadertron]

Not sure if related..ok probably not, but I saw some picture of druidic people who worship Gadget from the cartoon chip n dales rescue rangers. Anyone see that picture too or photoshop?

Either way, I think of it and laugh.

The LARPing/D&D subculture is creepy as shit.

Ganguro girls are pretty weird.

I think hardcore ganguro with the "blackface" type like pictured have fallen by the wayside.Now there are so many sub-subcultures of gyaru that it's hard to tell them apart,or what type of gyaru they are. The bleached to the point of being dead hair,overtanned skin and bad clothes are still there,but now I think they mainly focus on shit like big ass fake nails,than on kabuki style makeup.

Apparently these chicks are often seen as highly desirable in Japan,but only while they're in their early 20s.Most of the either grow out of it,or start to look even worse as all the tanning dries their skin out. Most of them are airheads,with nothing else in life really going for them,either.

LARPing is weird, but regular D&D is just a game.

Middle class/humble beginnings, professionally educated (usually highly educated) country hoppers/adventurers with seemingly no plan except that they like to collect vast numbers of experiences. Worked and went to school in more than one country, married to someone of a different country. Predisposition for being slightly whacky and causing trouble, indifferent to calling any place home. Uncomfortable with the idea of "being comfortable".

There has to be a clinical name for these freaks (Doughbelly, I'm looking at YOU for some help here).

Turns out there's a name for my tribe of birth: Third Culture Kid.

I prefer the D&D term "Adventurer" myself.

Hipsters aren't weird, their avoidance of mainstream culture makes them predictable and just this generation's equivalent of beatniks and hippies. Every generation has kids struggling to find their identity and be different then ironically become part of a whole group that tries to do that and end up being the same again.

Unlike Hipsters of today who seem to love living in parts of Brooklyn, the Beatniks of the 50's did contribute some amazing literally work to the social fabric of the US in my eyes.

William S. Burroughs is my favorite writer and he was a beatnik. The man helped to pioneer the cut up writing style and his first novel Junkie is a wonderful read

Most of these hipsters are still in their early twenties and under, give them time and perhaps a few of them will actually make some kind of contribution to society. They may produce some art work that are ridiculous or odd to people older than them, but the generation after them may appreciate.

The only thing I dislike of the hipster thing is people who aren't hipsters but does all the superficial things to blend in. But then there are posers everywhere...
