"Yeah he's getting kind of conformish since he met Ashley..."

corrosion of conformity

Raleigh's finest.
Don't give that "They're from New Orleans" shit.

I saw corrosion of conformity open up for Black Sabbath in 97 in Toronoto with Pantera, best show I ever saw.

Conformity

The tendency for all human beings to atttempt to belong to a group of people, by any means necessary, in order to feel secure and wanted. Conformity is displayed particularly well by weak-minded individuals who fear loneliness, and when alone feel too afraid to stand up for themselves. Conformity is allowing anything other than your own true desires to influence your decision making. Conformity is what separates the true individuals, who are oppressed and hated, from everybody else.

Followers of fashion

Conformist

Anyone who sides with or borrows the customs, rules, or styles of another group to be recognized. This branches out to the most mainstream popular groups, to the lowest underground groups. There is a 92% chance that the person reading this is, or is somewhat, a conformist. The other 8% most likely will continue to be original until some jackass says "Ur friggin awesum!!!1" and makes all his/her friends believe that what the individual is doing is cool to some extent, and in no time flat the fad that was just created becomes so annoying an 'anti' group is formed against it, in which now there are 2 more groups people will once again conform to and the cycle will repeat until an old idea (retro) is brought back. The retro fad halts the cycle for sometime, and when it leaves the cycle starts again

Individual: Hey watch this! (shows friend original idea)

Conformist: OMG!! thats soooo kewl!!! let me show everyone!!!!

Individual: aw shit, here we go again.

The Law of Conformity

The Law of Comformity states that the more people attempt not to conform to certain stereotypes and shared identities, the more they actually do conform to those stereotypes and identities.

Many teenagers become goths in an attempt to stand out as individuals, or else as a means of expressing what they feel is their "true self." However, in adopting the mannerisms, attire and musical tastes of the goth community, teenage goths ultimately end up conforming.
