Hot Topic

A store that sells a few good things, and a lot of crappy things. I'll go there to buy a bracelet or a pair of shoes, maybe a band shirt. I don't think that wearing Hot Topic clothes makes you different, because, as your first grade teacher probably told you, your clothes don't make you "different". I also don't understand why some people think that wearing Hot Topic pants makes them better than everyone else.
Hot Topic kid: z0mg you suck!

Me: erm...why?

Hot Topic kid: because, your pants are from American Eagle, they're so normal and conformist!

Me: So?

Hot Topic kid: MY pants are from Hot Topic. That means I'm better 'cause I'm an individual!

Me: 0_o

Hot Topic

A store that is found at malls. They have random accessories, a bunch of band t-shirts, pants, funny shirts, make up, underwear, hair coloring and cool shoes. Basically every thing a normal store would have. Many people think others shop here to try to be rebellious. Some losers do that, but others actually like what they sell and they shop there. Many parents are afraid of this store and think the people that are inside worship the devil. That's usually false.
"Let's go to Hot Topic."
"You faggot, shopping there and buying the same stuff everyone else buys from there is not being rebellious. Go die you queer."
"I'm not trying to rebel to anything, I seriously like the stuff they sell there, dumbass."

Hot Topic

A nationwide chain store that cannily markets pre-packaged "individuality" to droves of teenagers and young people who really want to be just like everybody else. A big hit with fans of Avril, Evanessence, etc.
Today's Hot Topic: The irony inherant in teens who buy their entire look from a nationwide chain store in order "to be different".

the genious that invented it prolly made a lot of money- however, he made me emberassed to listen to slipknot.

He also killed the punk-goth scene and slowly bringing the hXc scene down as well.

baggy pants- 50 dollars
slipknot shirt- 16 dollars
choker- 15 dollars
bracelets- 20 dollars
socks- 12.99

looking like a complete idiot and putting an end to the gothic culture. priceless

Hot Topic

A store found in malls around the U.S where people can buy retro-looking clothes and music tees. Alot of people say it is a store for poseurs, but it is actually just a store that some poseurs shop at. Most of the morons that say that shit shop there themselves. Lay off.
Hot Topic sells some decent clothing.

Hot Topic

A place that preppy "teeny" rich kids shop to steal fashion statements from a rocker image that exhisted long before they were born.
Didn't they use to make fun of us for wearing leather, spikes, and black about 5 years ago? My life is now being sold in the mall.

The pierce monkey at Hot Topic kept flirting with me so I got my skate-board-punk-ass out of there.
