Get the Grungers mug.possibly the most calm chilled out cool people you will ever come across,
they take life in its stride, they don't worry about stuff. The dress for a grunger is genrally about comfort, not about how it looks, also the grunger look is very practical, you can spend an entire weekend in it; unlike emo, you don't need to worry about anything.
May I also mention the terrific qualitiy of music that grungers listen to,
it rocks.
Grunger is used as a derivative insult by chavs towards anyone that is even slightly alternative, the chavs in my school are very fond of this particular 'put down'

Get the grunger mug.A term used to describe a sub-genre of rock music that has been inspired by original grunge music.
Sadly, many fans of original grunge dislike post-grunge music since they feel that post-grunge bands have "watered down" their music and made it "radio friendly" or basically in a way sold out to mainstream music. Unfortunately this is somewhat true. Just as with any genre of music, there are bands that are willing to give up their unique musical style and creativity that gives their music it's power just to make it in the music industry. However, this does not apply to all post-grunge bands.
A lot of the post-grunge sound is simply an evolution in music. Just as grunge was inspired from rock music such as punk and metal, post-grunge is an inspiration of grunge music and another genre such as metal, heavy metal, soft rock, blues, etc.......which ever the band would like to use to express themselves.
As long as the band is putting their heart & soul into their music, there is nothing wrong with a post-grunge style. Post-grunge bands deserve equal respect. Not every person will have the same taste in music.

Grunger 1: Uggghhh......I don't like post-grunge music. It sounds watered down and mainstream.....like they sold out to the music industry. It's kinda insulting to grunge music.
Grunger 2: Yeah a lot of bands have.....but not all. Some are just incorporating another style of music with good old grunge. Doesn't mean they're compromising the creativity and emotion they put in their music. They're just playing their music in a way that they feel expresses them best. Candlebox, Bush, and Seether are a few of my favorite post-grunge bands.
Grunger 1: Hmmm......yeah I think you've got a point there. I'm just not really fond of that particular sound I guess.
