The Mainstream

A machination of the corporate world. Designed to target a creative outlet and turn it into a business model, target market, key demographic, etcetera.

How the mainstream operates:

1. The mainstream is established...
2. An alternative is established to the mainstream...
3. The mainstream targets the alternative...
4. The alternative becomes the mainstream...

And therefore the alternative loses its identity, having become absorbed by the very system it was established to rally against. Mainstream for the masses...

Anti - Mainstream

Someone who is anti - mainstream has a strong dislike of trendy things and people. Many subcultures have preached about being anti - mainstream, most notably punk and heavy metal. Death metal, Black metal, and a few lesser known subgenres of punk rock remain the longest standing anti - mainstream subcultures while others have either become popular (I.e punk) or merged into other more popular subcultures(I.e classic metal and thrash metal). While music subcultures have the biggest anti - mainstream message other subcultures based around religion (I.e LaVeyan Satanism), politics(i.e non partisans), and even literature have emerged. Most trendy things start out anti - mainstream and become popular usually after a slight change in image (I.e in the 1920's united states when white people began playing jazz it became acceptable).

Punk was the first major anti - mainstream subculture, shortly followed by heavy metal and hip - hop.

Taj Mahstall

Any handicap stall equipped with its own personal sink in addition to the toilet. Will also generally contain a working latch, coat hook, graffiti-free walls, a jump seat for a child or little friend to hang with you, baby change table that can be handy for doing paperwork on, bars for you to rest your head on for a nap, and a toilet paper dispenser with a wide flat top; perfect for stowing your cell phone. Great for relaxing, getting texts out, and of course, comfortable potty business.
