pseudoscene 

A pseudoscene person happens to be someone who dearly wishes that he or she could fit into the description which is that of a scenester. But while said person wishes that they could be scene, he or she seems to fail miserably and becomes a disgrace to him or herself and the people around him or herself. Most pseudoscenesters are characterized by "really cool" black and bleached blonde hair, tight Diesel or Seven jeans for both the guys and girls, black Converse All Stars, favorite band tote bag, something along the lines of a Pretty Girls Make Graves shirt, various facial piercings (optional), heavy eye makeup, etc. These people just seem to think that they are "really cool" becuase they are so "scene" when, in all actuality, they are frowned upon by the numerous musical cliques of the world.
All the indie kids agree: "She is just so pseudoscene that it hurts my feelings."

pseudoscience 

A branch of science without an existing subject.

People engaged in either branch of pseudoscience claim it to be science, either from delusion, ignorance or greed (or all of it). Pseudoscience is invoked in explanations for paranormal phenomenons but not limited to.

Pseudoscience fails to fulfill the definition of science, e.g falsifiability, inconsistance and contradiction of existing knowledge, inabillity to make presumption based on observations or just making a testable hypothesis to an observed phenomenon.

The pseudoscience problem is a logical and pragmatic problem that understands the category of "pseudoscience" as a vague and bad category for analisys, since it can have a confuse using and even having inconsistent using majority of times, such as the neoatheist and materialist use of the term "pseudoscience" that might refer to everything that is not scientific and even to religious, spiritual, occult, supernatural, philosophical, cultural, social, political and economical themes.
"The pseudoscience problem shows how pseudoscience concept might be really inconsistent and problematic sometimes, mainly when used by neoatheists and materialists... We might need get into a new classification for scientific and non-scientific categories and even, maybe, counter neoatheism and materialism inside science, for avoid problems such as the pseudoscience problem."

"The pseudoscience problem is a good way to understand why we should be pragmatic and relativist inside scientific and non-scientific issues, mainly if it is about evidences, since we have evidences of all kinds, not just scientific evidences, it is even useful for show the cult to scientific/objective evidences might be countered inside science and the formulation of new ways to search for evidences and even adopt epistemological anarchism for openly scientific and non-scientific themes, since the scientific method might have its own problems such as pseudoscience concept."
