That will be NEVER!! LOL :D

I don’t follow any kind of category, stereotype, group, music or whatever “Fools follow” … I just do my thing!

I never get why people like to put themselves in these stupid categories, I guess they are scared to stand up and be themselves!

But what if "themselves" are a prep, goth or a banger?

I'm just regular lol

Im naturally like 85% traditional "Prep". Im a cheerleader, hang out with the popular kids, get good grades, date a varsity basketball player, wear a lot of American Eagle, listen to Justin Timberlake and Ashlee Simpson, talk about makeup, boys, hair and celebrities.

The other 15% is punk/emo-kid. I LOVE Sublime, Dashboard Confessional, and Jack Johnson. I wish I could pull off wearing a plaid skirt with hooker boots. Im a loner at times.


One thing I hate is Goth kids who think that they are original in some way. Goth is not original if you shop at Hot Topic.

And Good Charloote sucks. But one of my goth friends loved them before they came out with their shitty pop songs so she's okay. She's only cool because she dressed all in black back in the 6th grade days when people really thought she was a vampire.

I could go on with this subject for hours.

Well thats up to them ... pretty lame though if you can catogorise your entire personality and life in one word, but I don't really mind what people want to see themselves as!

Ps. I am English ... What the hell are "preps and bangers"?:D

Preppy you know lol...loafers, aligator shirts, blazers..i don't know lol. Bangers are head bangers, heavy metal lol. This is what they were both called when i was younger, i'm not to up on things now a days.:(

How about "bangers & mash?

http://www.teamspirit.org.uk/images/bangers.jpg

I don't think England has them ... People only wear blazers if its part of a school uniform or they are really old men!

... LOL I know what bangers and mash is though Newb, don't ever really remember eating it though!

lol, funny stuff.

Umm, ya wanna help me out here?

What the hell is "Bangers & Mash?"

Particularly the bangers part of it.

...
 

Sausages and mashed potatoes I think.

Re: ...
 

Oh, ok...I never heard of sausages referred to as bangers.

im gonna call sausages bangeers from now on

* 8 large baking potatoes, peeled and quartered
* 2 teaspoons butter, divided
* 1/2 cup milk, or as needed
* salt and pepper to taste
* 1 1/2 pounds beef sausage
* 1/2 cup diced onion
* 1 (.75 ounce) package dry brown gravy mix
* 1 cup water, or as needed

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place potatoes in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain, and mash with 1 teaspoon of butter, and enough milk to reach your desired creaminess. Continue mashing, or beat with an electric mixer, until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until heated through. Remove from pan, and set aside. Add remaining teaspoon of butter to the skillet, and fry the onions over medium heat until tender. Mix gravy mix and water as directed on the package, and add to the skillet with the onions. Simmer, stirring constantly, to form a thick gravy.
3. Pour half of the gravy into a square casserole dish so that is coats the bottom. Place sausages in a layer over the gravy (you can butterfly the sausages if you wish). Pour remaining gravy over them, then top with mashed potatoes.
4. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until potatoes are evenly brown.

Thanks a lot, Newb...Now I'm hungry...



Well...Paybacks are a bitch, huh?...lol

Hmm...A song stuck in your head for a recipe-induced craving...


Yeah...I guess that's fair:)

Re: Re: ...
 

This may help-

"Why are English breakfast sausages called bangers?

I didn't know, either, so I looked it up. Apparently it's because of their tendency to explode during cooking if they're not properly prepared."

Re: Re: Re: ...
 

Well, if that's their reasoning...then I can pretty much call ANYTHING I attempt to cook a "banger."

Re: Re: Re: Re: ...
 

LOL!!!!!!!!

Shit, that was funny!

One thing I hate is Goth kids who think that they are original in some way. Goth is not original if you shop at Hot Topic.


Yea no shit, Goth outerwear for all the rich kids who want to pretend that they have problems. I never knew what the fuck 'Hot Topic' was until I saw somebody mention it here and went to their website. A little pricey if you ask me, no thanks I will continue to shop at the thrift store and army surplus.

Here is something that drives me fucking nuts, before I had kids I had a 79 HD lowrider, no Jesse James special, just a beat up old chopper.

I went to Bikeweek in Daytona one year and couldnt believe the amount of morons running around on brand new bikes with leather chaps and everything else leather. Also every piece of leather clothing had HD emblems on it. Now I dont know if anyone on here rides, but HD apparel is not fucking cheap.

Me with my Wrangler jeans, cheap work boots, and one off biker shirt, I sometimes felt like I didnt fit in even with that crowd. Everyone trying to be the outlaw biker on the weekend and then going back to their cushy deskjob come mon. morning.

Thats why I say Enigma, just dont fit any category.

then i too am an enigma

never fit in in a group in HS. got along with certain people from each group, try and put em together and it never worked lol

:) and fuck hot topic! the last pair of jeans i bought was $18, belt was $4. FUCK IT!

I guess I'm goth >.>;;. Called that more than anything else. Don't really hang with much of the "goth" crowd though. Lol, their no better than the sterotype "prep" clique...at least at my school...>.>;;. Besides, as soon as they found out I don't like to drink or smoke cigarettes I was sooooo uncool. I'm a complete closet geek though, shh, gotta keep that on the down low.

hey there ....

i was really keeping my views on the fashion = music level ..
There is an established 'hip-hop' look that has changed and evolved as much as the lingo.
The gangsta thing in your example is more of a racial stereotype.

I dont think its cool to catagorize people in a way that is demeaning but it is a pretty clear indication of what that persons influences are ..musically.

I certainly wasnt equating my views with that of some old fart that sees someone dressed 'punk' and figures them for some squeegie kid..who'd b & e their house at the 1st chance.

I usually assume they are in bands .. to take that much trouble with the obviously premeditated fashion statement.
(the more outrageous looks pretty much guarantee that the person isnt into a mainstream line of business.).

I was once myself called a yuppie by my dads old girlfriend ...
(because i had more than one VCR !!!) I just laughed :)

I work in IT .. i'm not a nerd but people used to use that label for the field before everyone and their brother owned a computer.

Again .. i think my initial post was pretty clear that i view the 'pigeonholing' as nothing more than a recognition of the attempt to identify on a musical basis.

I cant honestly think of any identifiable youth fashion that isnt directly inspired from music ...

there may well be, i just dont know them.....

You are define. in a class all your own ;)

The Few, The Proud, The SMARTASS!!!

Re: Categorize Yourself
 

I don't fit in to much of anything. Not because I'm different or any bullshit reason like that. I don't like piercings enough to be punk, I don't know what the hell Emo is, I could be goth but I don't write shitty poetry and call people conformists, I'd be a nerd/geek, except I don't get good enough grades (laziness), I quit wrestling so I'm not a jock, I don't like dancing of any kind or large groups of people so I'm not a Raver. I'd be a druggy/alcoholic, except I don't have money or access to drugs and I don't like the taste of alcohol.

So, I'm not really enough of anything to be anything. Is there a "Sarcastic asshole and closet pedophile" category?

*whistle* That was quick

Just call me Quick Draw!!

the next name will probably be The STD

I'm sure That I will be the target for awhile!! LOL!!

Oh no....poor you....he's SOOOOO hurtful...:rolleyes:

bye

OH NO YOU WHERE NOT DOING ANY THING WRONG!!!! WhatEver!!

I already had Sam.The.Egg and Sam_The_Egg
