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".

Hot Topic

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.

watch in 3 years, the 12 year olds are gonna start wearing tight pants and hxc band shirts. their already selling Remembering Never shirts!
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 cool store that is often judged as being a place for posers and people paradoxically trying to be unique. Actually, it has some pretty good merchandise.
I was being stupid and shallow for judging Hot Topic. I shop there not because I want to be unique, but because I actually like the stuff.

Off-topic

Hot Topic Logic

The reasoning that clothing brands reflect the personality or intelligence of the wearer.
Person #1: "Look at preppy guy wearing Abercrombie! God, I would never want to look like all THOSE people!

Person #2: "Yeah, let's go to hottopic and buy some baggy black pants and studded belts to really stand out!"

Abercrombi wearer: *Jams out to Napalm Death on his way to the bar to get some fine ass*

Oi, it's just a store. Not only for posers. I found a cool Ramones t-shirt there.
Person1: Hey do you like hot topic?
Person2: Ew no, they only sell emo band stuff there, and other stupid worthless crap.
Person1: You ignorant fool, since when are bands like the Ramones emo?
