    The Millenials laughing at Gen Z are the same Millenials who mocked emo/scene kids back then.

    The use of the word aesthetic as a verb in the last several years blows my mind.

    Anyhow, yeah, we dress different when we’re kids. I don’t think too many people are shocked by this.

      To be fair: The scene was much smaller back then and many emo kids were basically scorned and beaten for the emo and scene aesthetic.

        Yup… It was the main reason I stopped wearing make up and dressing like that. The bullying became unbearable.

        Would be fun to try it again now, though… But I’m 30 so it’ll probably look dumb lol

          Yeah the bullying was my main reason as well. I mean you could still rock that aesthetic to a show, but the most I feel comfortable to do nowadays is black nail polish, lol. I could get away with more on stage probably, but I won’t feel comfortable like that now to be honest. The anxiety and bad experiences cut too deep I guess.

      I recently came across a blogpost explaining something I was researching, and the comments beneath were exactly like this. Then I looked up from when it was: May 2006.

      The internet is a time machine.
