non-conformist

non-conformists do whatever they want, because they can, and they don't care. they like what's in style, what's out of style, and what will never be in style, all because they don't really care about what anyone else thinks. often confused with wannabe non-conformists, who refuse to like anything in style and are conforming to a different set of rules, as opposed to a real non-conformist who doesn't really notice that he or she is not conforming.
everyone thinks non-conformists are just conforming to being a non-conformist.
but we don't care... because that's just your conformed thinking speaking.
wannabe non-conformist: you think you're a non-conformist? you're so emo for wearing black nail polish. so you're not a non-conformist because you think you're emo. ew.

non-conformist: i like wearing black nail polish, but i also dance around in my underwear singing toxic by britney spears. half of my clothes are "emo", but the other half are hot pink. i do whatever i want and i don't care.

wannabe non-conformist: uhmm you're such a poser and a wannabe.

non-conformist: no, it's your conformed thinking that has drawn that conclusion.

wannabe non-conformist: i was jay kay i actually like all that stuff too.

usually, i don't shop at hollister, but if i see a shirt that i like i'll buy it, because being a non-conformist doesn't mean you aren't allowed to shop at typically preppy stores.

wannabe non-conformist

somebody who hates something everyone else likes, just because they think it makes them different or non-conformist. often emo or punk kids think they are non-conformist because they dress different than everyone else, but when in reality they are just conforming to their perception of non-conformity. real conformists do not care whether something is popular or not, they just wear it because they like it.
"Wannabe non-conformist- I went into Hot Topic today and saw this prep walk in wearing a pink polo shirt. What a conformist!

Me- No dipshit, they came in because they like the store. They are true non-conformists."


"Wannabe non-conformist- I am so pissed! I found Less Than Jake years ago and they're getting famous so now I can't listen to them, or else I'm just another damn conformist.

Non-conformist- I found them years ago too, but I'm still going to listen to them because I like their music."

non-conformist

There are two defintions of 'non-comformist':
1. A bigot who decides since everyone else like '______' that hey'll be different and hate it. See wannabe non-conformist.
2. A person who doesn't care what anyone else thinks and like what they choose to like, popular or not popular.
Both defintions are considered a weirdo.
1. Everyones wearing watches. I hate watches now.
2. I like watches! In fact, I wear three!

non-conformist

While sometimes hypocritical - it does vary.
You can't generalize on this definition.
there are the hypocrites and those who really truly believe in non-comformity.
hypocritical NC : god, everyone likes modest mouse now ! I liked them 1stt and like so i muss hate them now !

NC : I don't like all that punk rock shit and I won't pretend I do. Sure, you can like it if you want but i'm not going to pretend I do like it.

non-conformity

Not conforming. Usually done in large groups therefore it isn't really non-conformity, it is conformity. Kinda' like anarchy.
Conforming kid: 'Lets do this thing that everyone else that we talk to does.'
Non-conforming kid: 'Lets go do this thing that only other non-corming kids do.'

Make since? I'm not ranting about kids that conform or try not to conform, but I'm just saying non-conformity can never be established.. EVER!
