The Rejects
The ScenesThese scenesters are usually very music-savvy and loyal to a few specific genres typically hardcore, metal, indie, retro, 80's new wave, classic rock, etc. to name a few, of which they dress to exemplify. Scenesters take a lot of pride in their overall image, and often appreciate shock value. Oftentimes they are thrifty, employing their abilities as bargian-hunters and do-it-yourself gurus to do something unique with their style. Large vintage sunglasses, retro patterns, tight jeans, classic metal/band tees, plastic jewelry, and heavy eye makeup are just some of the incorperations into scene style for either sex. This style and showmanship is at its height during shows (concerts), where often scene kids will meet their friends and size up strangers who visit their turf. There indeed is competition among scenesters...sometimes friendly, sometimes not. Shows are in fact not just concerts, but often a means of socialization for those on the scene. Those people who partake in scene lifestyle often choose to date/socialize only with those like them, which can cause bitterness or rejection to outsiders.
The music scene is often associated with other areas that scenesters are interested in, which is likely, art, photography, creative writing, poetry, tattoos & piercings, civil rights, animal rights, etc. Many scene kids have strong beliefs about these things and consider those who do not to be "posers." They feel that their scene style is not only a fashion statement, but an all-encompassing lifestyle. The scene is dividing amongst itself, due to purists who feel the scene is about music only, and those who have taken the scene fashion to be almost, if not equally, as important as the music itself. Some of the fashionable scenesters stick to their musical roots, but often due to the aforementioned trickle-down effect, there are people joining the scene who are not interested in the music, but are only in it for the attention. Thus, the scene will continue to divide. Whether they will admit it or not, kids interested in this lifestyle of excitement, concerts, body modification, fashion, and overall alluringly unusual aesthetics will continually be labeled as "scene." They chose an alternative path because they wanted to find acceptance elsewhere.

The PunksFar from being the violent mobs that the media often portrays, the ideological culture of Punks hold some very worthy beliefs such as anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-homophobia, vegetarianism and environmental protection. Being a punk is all about being yourself, liking what you like, doing what you do and not having to live upto someone elses expectations, only your own. There is no dress code, hair colour or rules to be punk, since punk is about being true to yourself. You are a punk rocker if you listen to punk music. It doesn’t matter what you dress like. Punks by definition, both above and social don’t want to be cool. They want to be themselves and rebel against anything they feel is oppressing them.

The GothsGoths then to like the darker side of things. They usually listen to death metal and goth music, such as Dismember and Bauhaus (Marilyn Manson is not goth. He's just weird). Real goths are not depressing and suicidal like the posers you see at Hot Topic. Goths are fun to be around and have a satyrical sense of humor, able to laugh at both themselves and other people. They don't worship Satan and aren't evil despite what some ignorant people might say. Goths don't all dress alike either. They like to create their own unique style. Goths don't envy the popular people. They are what they are because it makes them happy. Goths would rather stay who they are and be among the so called "freaks" than be like everyone else and be popular.

The EmosAsk a room full of fifty self-identifying Emos to define "Emo" and you'll probably get twenty completely different answers. Being emo is not about self harm or self-loathing. Emo is short for emotional hardcore and is a sub-genre of hardcore punk that began in the 1980s. Bands like Texas is the Reason, Thursday, Sunny Day Real Estate and Cap'n Jazz are all emo bands. If you also have Lady Gaga, Johnny Cash, and Cannibal Ox on your iPod, that doesn't make you any less emo. A real "emo" is someone who is passionate and knowledgeable about a diversity of music and proud of their taste in it. In general, the emo subculture values the arts. Painting, making music, writing, and expressing yourself creatively are all important ways to participate in the emo subculture. Emo pride themselves on self-exploration, intelligence, and feeling.

The LonersThere are two types of loners at Beverly Hills High. The 'loser' loner and the 'cool' loner. The cool loner, are the loners who do their own thing, they don't really care what others think, rejects most people yet is looked up to and follows their own lead. Then you've got the 'real' loser loner. These are the type of people who have crazy social anxiety along with poor social skills in general, zero confidence and exhibit envious traits. They're the ones who never get their crush, the money or the friends. The dumb person who goes unnoticed. The ones who feel invisible around the opposite sex (or same-sex if they're attracted to the same-sex). The people who nobody wants to spend time with. Known as 'the boring guy' or that 'friendless' person, the invisible woman. They act out to get any form of attention. They aren't lone wolves, they're dependent insecure people who are usally better friends with the teachers and tend to really cling to people who show them any form of attention.
