I have to ask: bongos or ukelele?

(Deleted the other comment because I am paranoid about someone I work with recognizing me because of the specificity).
I think you need to find an Australian version of this meme: what are the subcultures there?

Then I was an indie kid. Which meant being into britpop (suede, pulp, blur, radiohead, etc) and wearing one-star sneakers with tights and little dresses to nightclubs. I liked the indie crowd. They didn't drink to excess, they were intelligent... they were somewhat maudlin. It was all good. That was my dominant subculture for my uni days and I have deep fondness for it still, though it has died a DEATH.
Then rave culture had it's time. That too has died. I was on the edges of that but never went crazy as a raver. No fluoro or angel wings for me! But I did have platform sneakers.
Subcultures big in Aus at the moment: hip-hop (no idea why!), emo (for the little ones), surfers, bogans (um... they wear tight acid wash denim jeans with moccasins and listen to ACDC and breed young?), wogs (Greek/Italian second-generation-ers), punk (small revival at the moment). We don't call people 'preppies' here, but I guess there's something like that. In my school, we called them 'trendites' but there's no real established name for them. We've got rednecks too, sadly. Some overlap with bogans there. And also there's a lot of Asian subcultures here--I haven't really included them.

Icons are pretty, for sure. (I find myself mesmerized by my own icons, lately, and also checking out the sv icon communities. Pretty soon I'll be paying for extra icons space....)
That Kara and Lee one is cute, but I think I like "You're going down, Smallville" better.

there's a scene in a film i just watched, L.I.E. (rather disturbing movie), in which the kid seduces an older man by gorgeously quoting whitman. could've been a cliche, but it wasn't. i belong to the Church of Poetry, btw. and now i'll shut up. (the waitress must've given me regular instead of decaf at breakfast, sorry!)
