Hot Topic is a clothing store just like Hollister or any of the other stores in the mall. Some people think that it is where people go there because it gives them "cred" in whatever little social group the buyer has been labeled in. I personally have been labeled in several groups which none of them are true to who I am. It is true that the prices can be a little outrageous at times but those who really like the clothes are going to be willing to pay for their favorite clothing. Hot Topic has all kinds of stuff and also stuff for everyone, even if you are in a specific clik.
I go to Hot Topic when I have time and a few dollars. There stuff is of high quality and last for a while.

Kaleigh and Kaili went to Hot Topic and came back with a t-shirt and a car refresher that smells like teen spirit.

A store that internet-socialites (aka posers and emofags) feel the need to defend shopping at. It makes them feel good about themselves.

Get the Hot topic mug.
A store for punk, goth, emo ect people that overprices clothes, but also has a great selection of belts, belt buckles, plugs, patches and more cool stuff at reasonable prices.
"Dude? why are you going to hot top, the clothes are so expensive?"
"Because i want to buy a new Belt buckle and some plugs."
