What is scene?

Urban dictionary describes scene as the following:
SCENE
typical "scene" girl: -choppy hair -usually black -septum ring -has a myspace with pictures of her from crazy angles with a TUFF face on because shes so hardxcore -goes to local shows all the time -belongs to a livejournal community called "cuntxcore" or "gungunbangbang" or "murderscene". because anything involving guns, or bang, or murder, or glamour, electric, shock, lust, or cunt, is cool in her book -often says things like "SUP NIGZ" or "KTHXBAI" or "I HATE YOU KDIE" or "IM COOLER THAN YOU K" or "SUP IM RAD" on their myspace profile -loves dinosaurs and robots and little girl bows and headbands because its just the way things are in the scene. dont ask them why all of them happen to find all of these things suddenly attractive, because they dont know themselves, its just what TOTALLY SCENExCORE people do. usually theyre just obnoxious bitches who put on this "scener than thou" attitude and hate everyone else, kthxbai lol.
i am so scene, with my dinosaur shirt and my polka dot headband and my short choppy black hair and my cigarettes and my obnoxious attitude <3 kiss my ass kthxbai see you at the hardcore show tomorrow

TO BE HONEST this creates a negative picture of scenesters and is overall just bitching about scene girls, although some of the stuff is right. Dinosaurs, bows and guns, you gotta love em if you're scene.
I happen to like this definition more:
The new thing for 15-20 y/o kids on myspace. (Face it being scene ISN'T original)

Scene Personality:

Usually only goes to shows to "hardxcore" dance and talk shit about non-scene kids, or about the band.
HATES anyone not "scene"
Has a strange, almost leet-ish vocabulary. (AKA: LYEK OMFG I WENT TO THIS SHOW &&OMFG NI99A IT WAS HELLA TIGHTT.)

Introduction

Hey there! My name is Jessie, I'm sixteen and I live in the UK.
A couple of years back me and my friend sat down and began writing a book called 'How To Be Scene For Dummies', it was a fun thing to write and do, and seeing as blogs are a great way to get information around we're going to start a blog version!
It's mostly just for fun and we don't take much of what we say seriously, so don't get offended if you're the biggest scene queen out there and we don't mention you, or we say what your doing is wrong, because we're not professionals.
We're just two teenagers with a blog.
My best friend is called Jodie and she's fifteen and also lives in the UK, she'll be writing on this blog from time to time as well.
This is the introduction over and done with so ... watch out for the next post!
Peace out x
