An oxymoron, said to be non-existant by "hardcore punks." A easier to handle version of the genre punk.

Get the pop punkmug. A very good music genre or subgenre. Instrumentals sound like a watered down punk, vocals sound somewhat like pop. People who listen to this do NOT shop at Hot Topic as assumed by many. People who listen who listen to this dress either white ghetto, preppy, sporty, or just jeans and a shirt. Sadly the famous Pop Punkers try to look punk :(
This music is not listened to by weird, dressed in all black, rejected, suicidal FREAKS. Although those freaks often tend to make fun of and bash Pop-Punk, all I have to say to them is get a life and stop slitting your wrists. The only reason Pop-Punkers "sellout" to MTV is because they arent afraid to show their faces on mtv, because unlike real punks they are not freaks.

Examples of really awesome Pop-Punk bands: blink-182, Sum 41
pretty good Pop-Punk bands: yellowcard, simple plan, good charlotte, new found glory
btw Millencolin (skatepunk) and Green Day (punk) and offspring (punk) are really awesome too.

Get the pop punkmug. Pop: fads that are popular or mainstream, including music.
Punk: an movement of people and fads that go against what is popular and mainstream.
Pop-punk: stupid not-tallented bands like good charlotte and blink. they sound punky, but are corprate sell outs and therefore CANNOT by definition be punk at all. The entire point of punk is to be reafreshingly defferent from the mainstream of pop. So you can't mix them.

Get the pop punkmug. A person whose lifestyle causes them to be dirty and downright unsavory, often emitting an obnoxious gas from their orifaces. Definately someone you dont want to bring to a family function.

Get the crust punkmug. punk chicks usually wear black, hot pink and purple they wear really tight clothes so they usually have extremely hott bodies. their hair is either black with colors or they have hair like avril lavigne. punk chicks are commonly known to be friends with other punks or emo girls and boys. and one thing to remember is that punks chicks arent the same as emo girls, they may listen to they same musik but they arent as emotional and punk chicks are happy most of the time unlike emo girls
