I wish I was this handsome and cool when I was that age. NO THIS DOESN'T COUNT.
Haha, if it makes you feel any better, that was probably the one time in ten years I had a hair day that good. Thanks though.

I was entering my edgelord phase, but then one day a friend stops by and we decide to go visit this other guy....who proceeds to show us his sweet collection of katanas that had cobra head hilts. I snapped out of my phase as they marvelled over the craftsmanship of his recently acquired edgelord weapon stash. I followed up the visit by selling out and getting a job.
I was real into Linkin Park. A little Dashboard here and there as well. Outside of that, I didn't get too far into the edge as most of it I found insufferable. Emo, Screamo, Bleemo, and Whatever-else-mo that came out in the 90s and early 2000s was straight garbage.
This is still a great concept album start to finish.
...Fuck.

I don't think I ever was edgy.
There was a point in my life where I was kind of boring though.

I am currently a very boring person.

At 28 I've still got MSI, Linkin Park, and Evanescense on my mp3 player. I only listen to them a few times a year because *gasp* my musical preferences have changed and expanded. There's literally nothing strange about people's opinions or preferences for things changing.
Pulling "you aren't/weren't a true fan, I'm way more real than you!" cards is really annoying. But maybe it helps you feel good about yourself or something. Eat me.

I remember I went through that phase in high school where I thought I was so unique for not listening to radio bands or anything mainstream. I was listening to nothing but metal and poser goth bands.
Was also super into Tim Burton films and Victoria Frances art.

To be very clear: I do not and never liked Linkin Park. Not even when I was 15.
But I agree with astroturfing's general sentiment.
That people who grow are fake?

That's definitely not how I read it. Just that there's no need to shit on the stuff that helped you grow and expand in the first place.

Naruto and Linkin Park was not a good combo for me in my late middle school days

It kicked ass and was exciting at the time. But yeah, I've grown alot since then.
The topic of this thread just led me down a rabbit hole of looking at comments I made on my old youtube account.
It's the most shameful embarassing vomit of right wing beliefs I've seen in ages. I'm reading some of it now and it's almost unbelievable how terrible I used to be.
