quote:

we've all heard about cyberpunk and cipherpunk, but here's something new:

textpunk.

That's right. Textpunk

Newspaper articles, BBSs (like this one), IRC, ASCII art, Kopipe, program source code, Novels, View HTML source, Google search engine, Mathematics, Hieroglyphics, The Rosetta Stone, Gutenberg Bible...

A textpunk doesn't sit there waiting for information to be slowly fed to him drip at a time by the gogglebox. A textpunk is thirsty for knowledge and 100% focused - they read old school hacker textfile zines. They don't waste their time with lame imageboarders: instead they're doing crazy abstract shitposting on /prog/ with thoughts and concepts twisted up so with many levels of irony that it becomes an art form.

Posting this again.

Killed a Girl in 96: Jun 15, 2001; DON'T STOP CAN'T STOP

There was a really good thread around 2008 about people living in a Crust Punk house. It was gross and beautiful, like most punk things.

resting mitch face: Apr 9, 2005; 5) I hear you.

In the mid-late 90s I worked at a shithole club (the Milestone in Charlotte, NC). A notable punk thing I saw was a guy getting pepper-sprayed in the face so he went to the bathroom and rinsed his face with literal poo poo-water from a stopped up toilet. His name was Lazarus. He later left a message on my (now) husband's voicemail about how we were all bad influences and he was moving on with his life and "gently caress the AGP."

One of my friends bought his jacket from Wilson's leathers in the mall and spent a day running over it in his truck so it looked worn. He now lives in one of those hippie communes in Asheville. It's cool. Most of those people have jobs and families now (myself included). They may not be aesthetically punk but deep down they're cooler than you'll ever be. Even if they drove over a leather jacket from the mall.

Some punks were indeed well-to-do, but they'd jump in a dumpster outside the pharmacy for a rig just like the poor ones. That is the reason why punks were cool, because they'd rather get hepatitis or HIV than live in this bullshit society. It also explains partly why punk is dead.

Gutter Phoenix: Jul 23, 2013; I preferred your last avatar, so I put it back. My apologies to the pedo who purchased your last one (it's always projection).

I just finished watching the new episode of Bar Rescue, which was about some lovely punk bar in Long Beach. The owner was some spoiled dude bro and self-proclaimed "punk rocker" who refused to "sell out" by making any changes to his failing bar, so the show just walked out on him and didn't fix anything. It was hilarious.

I love punk music, but most of the people I've ever met who've referred to themselves as punks have been entitled, self-righteous, trust-fund pricks. I played a lot of punk shows in Berkeley/ SF during the mid-to-late 90s and almost every show was full of those kinds of people. Maybe it was just the time and place, but I doubt it.

God I can only imagine the nasty rear end poo poo that loudmouth prick would've installed (then pulled out the second the cameras were done rolling) and the godawful signature drink some mixologist friend of his would've designed for it. That show is the worst and I hope every bar featured in it closes down (spoiler: a good amount do).

Something weird is happen... I stopped playing it years ago but clicked the bookmark for it the other day... at the login screen, the username field had a few names pop up on autocomplete and "Mumpy Puffins" was one of them. *shrug* I don't know what is going on. Somebody is eating my cookies or something.
