abercrombie with a punk-pouser twist
by raine June 29, 2003
mkayy, well i don't know why the fuck everyone says it's for posers, because if you like what you wear, your not a fucking poser. it's just a store people. okay, maybe it has colorful skinny jeans and studded belts and a shitload of band t's. but A.E. or Hollister or Abercrombie is filled with destroted jeans, thin shirts, leather belts, and hundred-dollar perfumes. get over yourselves.
you shop at Hollister when you want destroyed jeans.
i shop at Hot Topic when i want skinny jeans.
done.

Hot Topic is a MUSIC store that some people confuse for a 'poser palace.' Newsflash, its not. If you like it, great. Yes, Hot Topic is based on music. Some people think that people go there to be different, other than shopping at 'preppy' stores, like Hollister, A&F, AE, etc... And some people DO want to be different. But the only thing that is crazy is people think 'low, life-less emos' go there to get a whole lot of dark, creepy, black clothes to look scary and dark and creepy, and blahblahblah...PEOPLE! IT'S STORE! a MUSIC store that just happens to sell other stuff than music. It's not a place where posers hang out. It's not a place where people go to live out their 'lifeless-ness.' And its most definitely not a scary store. If you like the store, great. If you hate the store, I'm sorry, just find a different store. Don't hate, its not fun.
emo: ima go to Hot Topic to go get some more radtastic clothes.
prep: ew, they wear black? That is so fetch!
poser: wow..now EVERYBODY is going to get that stuff! I might as well go get it too!
emo: wtf? i might as well be preppy..

A good, although pricey store (but still a bargain bin compared to Abercrombie & Fitch and with better made clothing) that has been given a bad reputation ever since that poser Avril Lavigne (shudders) became popular.

Hot topic is a store that sells so called "punk", "emo", and "goth" clothes. It is owned by the same company as Abercrombie and Fitch, a store with the opposite style (preppy). Both stores are very over priced. Poseurs are obsessed with the store. Real punks probably don't waste their money and rip their clothes themselves.
