2. a song from Van Halen's self-titled debut album that describes such a person. Check out Eddie Van Halen's really boss guitar work on that track.

Puppy Punk

Cripple Punk

(also known as cpunk) A movement that is exclusively by the physically disabled for the physically disabled, started on tumblr. It's about rejecting pity, inspiration porn, & all other forms of ableism. It ejects the “good cripple” mythos. Cripple Punk is here for the bitter cripple, the uninspirational cripple, the smoking cripple, the drinking cripple, the addict cripple, the cripple who hasn’t “tried everything”. Cripple Punk fights internalized ableism & fully supports those struggling with it. It respects intersections of race, culture, gender, sexual/romantic orientation, size, intersex status, mental illness/neuroatypical status, survivor status, etc. Cripple Punk does not pander to the able bodied.
"rules":
-cripple punk is not conditional on things like mobility aids & “functioning levels”
-always listen to those w/ different physical disabilities & different intersections than yourself. do not speak over them
-disabled people do not need to personally identify w/ the words “cripple” or “punk” individually to be a part of cripple punk
-able bodied people wishing to spread the message may only ever amplify the voices of the disabled
-able bodied people may never use uncensored slurs themselves but never censor our language
-able bodied people must always tag things like reblogs with “i’m able bodied”

-physically disabled people wanting to be a part of the movement who are uncomfortable using the slur may refer to it as “cpunk”
I finally was comfortable with my disability after I found out about Cripple Punk! Now I'm not as nervous using my cane in public! I can use it to annoy ableists!

College Punk

An 18-25 year old (typically male) who calls themselves a "punk" because they own 10 or 12 of the more popular punk albums on vinyl and sport a Descendents t-shirt on the days they're not putting on their Starbucks uniform to go to work.

They usually have a handful of friends who are more or less the same and sometimes they'll go to shows and stand in the back and look bored. They eschew the fashion aspect of the culture and tell people it's because punk isn't a fashion statement but it's mostly because they know they couldn't pull the look off and are too afraid to try.

They're very fond of posting photos of their Black Flag and Minor Threat albums on Reddit and waxing philosophical about "what punk means" and how much they hate nazi skins despite never encountering one in their lives. They also claim to hate the movie SLC Punk but secretly they all own a copy that they watch on a regular basis.

They are, without a doubt, the ultimate posers and deep down most of them know it which is why they call anyone with a studded jacket or a hawk a "fashion punk" in order to compensate for their own lameness. Once they reach their mid to late twenties they'll box up their vinyl, stop going to shows and basically become just like every other khakis wearing, latte sipping, middle class douchebag.
A: Check out this photo of me with Henry Rollins! See how hardcore I am! I am so not a poser (college punk).

B: Yeah, man, let's go to a show tonight!

A: No thanks, my parents haven't sent my weekly allowance check yet and I have to be at Starbucks early tomorrow.

punk

Punk is not about a certain hair colour, style, or music, although music does take a large part in most punks lives.
Punk is about liking what you like, being yourself, saying what you think and FUCK ALL THE REST.
You don't need a two foot high red mohawk to be a punk, although that is wicked cool.
You don't need sleeves, a backpiece, or any tattoos at all to be punk.
You don't need a Misfits, Casualties, Sex Pistols or any band like that jacket to be punk.
You don't need anything to be punk except for awareness, self respect, respect for others and an open mind.

PUNK IS NOT DEAD.
I don't care if you wear drainpipes or not, you're a punk cos you're not some dumbass prat who's a fucking loser poser who needs to get his shit straight!

Sucker for punishment

Someone who just can't get enough.
An incredibly high threshold for either or both physical and emotional pain, coupled with great stubborness (or determination, as they call it) makes someone a sucker for punishment.

A sucker for punishment Is strongly self reliant and independant and take it apon themselves, and no-one else to solve their problems. Their relentless determination and unbreakable spirit means they never back down, never give up, they are absolutely determined to keep going despite what pain it may be causing them, and what obstacles stand in their way. The person is desperate to get things done by themselves, they usually reject help until they literally can't carry on anymore.

To others their efforts may not seem worth it, but for them the victory alone is worth it,never mind the prize, they gain great satisfaction from achieving their goals but failure from resorting to someone elses' help.

Their relentless determination is usually a good a thing, such people rarely fail, but is also often a bad thing.
If they ever can't succeed for whatever reason, they will just try and try and try and try until their apparently never-ending strength has been spent, this is very painful and exhausting to both them and their friends who they commonly reject the aid of.
1:"Damn, that guy's fell off like hundred times, he's bleeding and everything!"
2:"Such a sucker for punishment, when will he learn?"
