counter-bandwagoning

To reject popular culture, music, and ideas for attention, and the purpose of fitting in with non-conformists. Counter-bandwagoners often spend time in your face talking loudly about how "different" they are, and bashing popular musicians/celebrities. They usually don't know what they're talking about. Since non-conformists seem to make up half of the teenage population nowadays, in a way, counter-bandwagoners are actually conforming to socially acceptable ideas. Or at least they pretend to.

(In reality these people probably don't care about pop culture at all. And that's fine, but if you really don't give a shit, then act like you don't give a shit. Being true to yourself is a lot less annoying and makes you a lot more likeable to others.)

1.)Jessica: "FUCK MACKELMORE! I can't stand his annoying-ass music. he fucking sucks! I bet he doesnt even write his own stuff!"

Brandon: "Ugh, stop counter-bandwagoning. Some of his songs are pretty good, actually. He seems like a pretty nice dude. And yes, he does."
(good guy Brandon)

2.) Miley Cyrus is a good example of a counter-bandwagoner.

Bandwagonist

A bandwagonist is someone who mindlessly goes along with an action or idea, without any real reason other than other people are doing it.

A prime example of Bandwagonists are Facebook politicans around the time of an election. They don't know why they hate David Cameron, they just do because the other people's statuses say so, and feel the urge to post similar statuses to be involved.
