A term I coined personally during my time playing Call of Duty: Black Ops. (Aka: Christmas Kids.)
This is a derogatory term used to express hatred towards split-screeners during online multi-player. As most COD gamers are aware, split-screeners are usually horrible and do more harm than good in any game type.
The meaning behind "Welfare Kids" is that the majority of split-screeners (some, not all) cannot afford their own PS3 or XBOX, so therefore in order to enjoy the COD experience, they play on their friend's console in split-screen. Its highly ironic though in some situations that the second player does better than the first player.
I, personally, have yet to play a round in TDM (etc) where a Welfare Kid has been on top at the end of a match. (One exception, college buddies of mine in FL were playing in the others dorm room and were split-screen playing, in which case they both did considerably well since they usually kick @$$ solo.)

Get the 2000s kid mug.Just another person in the world, Normaly can see the world for what it really is. Sometimes likes to listen to music with more meaning then most other music types. Does not like to be noticed or care what you think. Can't stand the wanna-be emo kids who focus on how they look.

Get the emo kid mug.Rejected from society, the young emo kid struggles to find himself by means of going home every night and write depressing poems while he listen to bands like secondhand serenade and taking back sunday and making love to his razorblade and fawning over a girl he will never get due to his outcast status.

Get the Emo kid mug.Scene kids are kids that believe they are listening to music and creating a style that has never been done before.
Scene had another name 25 years ago. That name was called New Wave and it wasn't considered cool to be part of the scene, it was considered freakish.
This was at a time when wearing a label
that was unique at such a time, could be acceptable as an alternative to mainstream culture.
Scene is a confused genre, because the kids that mainly call themselves scene
change the rules for what scene is and isn't daily. This tells everyone else that scenesters are posers and they are not sure of what they are doing, along with giving no reference to the ungerground anti-fashions that originally gave their subconscience the idea that they stole.
The best way to be scene, is to NOT be scene! Stop coming up with boring labels to fit in or shock people.
It's 2008, and the glam meets drag look was original when David Bowie, Divine, Boy George, Pete Burns and Robert Smith had done it during a time when these types were just trying to create something new along with b eing themselves, thus it was not accepted so greatly until future times.
That was true scene!
If you must have a label, then you are insecure and if you aren't going to give old school new romantic, punk, and wavers
any credit for ripping off their look, then you must be banished into complete ignorant bliss.

Get the Scene Kid mug.a group starterd in lynchburg VA that grew into a larger uprising. like the shik kids, kandi kids, etc.
Chem kids are named as a result of all the chemicals they put into their bodies, because they are constantly smoking anything they can get their hands on, drinking, and getting as high as posible. (although this is the general attitude and not an actual creedo.)
Chem kids have nothing to do with MCR
the chem kid look can vary from scene/emo to skater to clasic 80's punk. they love music but their taste varies form person to person like everyones.
they tend to get in fights constantly and make it apoint to give the finger to any cop they see. more or less they are an athiest/agnostic group of anarchists. in a good way. with street names (and/or myspace names) having to do with drugs, anarchy, death, or a general philosophy of life. like Meth-ane, Aesthetic, Nepenthe, Faust, Crayola, Zombie, or Feral

Get the Chemical Kids mug.Scene kids are described as 'happy emos'. They (scene guys) normally have a fluffy emo fringe died black or bleached blonde or brown such as teh guitarist from teh band Tonight Is Goodbye. They listen to scene music which is bands liek Hadouken and NEVER lsiten to mainstream bands or bands that non scene kids have heard of. Scene guys are obsessive about stars. Stars on tees, hoodies, hats, belts etc. THey wear brands like Drop Dead, Paint The Stars, Atticus, Robolove etc. with skinny jeans if any colour. Scene girls wear and are exactly teh same.
They are coool. And there are many posers. Oh and Scene guys will pull other scene guys to impress scene girls. Oh and if a scene band touches teh charts the scene kids never listen to it again.
