Literally the epitome of the mid-to-late 2000s. A style and subculture that was/is highly criticized but now brings back memories of a more simpler time. And tbh, I would rather have scene kids than today's tiktok kids, which are 10x worse.
You know when someone is truly a scene kid when they're still rocking the scene look today, which technically makes them non-conformists now.

A very socially desirable trait to have, especially on the internet or in a ghetto. However, the importance of integrity is often way too overemphasized in places such as an elementary school. It would be great if elementary school principles could stop over-preaching the importance of integrity because no kid really gives a shit until around high school. How about upholding some other equally desirable values such as conscientiousness or impartiality.
Literally every elementary/middle school principle during an assembly: I N T E G R I T Y
Me: Integrity deez nuts!!! gOtEm

You people have it all wrong! The lesser-known definition/concept of ideology (favored by Gramsci, Althusser, Foucault, Hall etc.) is less about a "visible set of beliefs" and more about the internalization of how one perceives and interacts with their reality. Though somewhat indirectly related, it generally has nothing to do with politics and economic policies.
Ideology is everything under the hood, everything you take for granted without consciously realizing it. Therefore, it would be safe to say that language is an ideology, since it follows a set of grammatical rules that we have to take for granted in order to communicate.
It would also be safe to say that love is an ideology, as loving someone does not take any conscious reasoning. Love is so deep-seated in us that we treat love as an unstoppable force, and not as simply as chemical fluctuations in the brain and body.
Really, anything could be seen as an ideology if we start deconstructing the very foundations of reality.

Me, an intellectual: Man... thinking back, university were the good days, really learned a lot there.
Typical hate-mongering political zealot: Yeah... good days when you were indoctrinated with leftist ideology garbage!
Me, an intellectual: Heh, ideology. You keep using that word, I don't think it means what you think it means.

Someone: Why are there so many stupid people in the world?? Like seriously, anyone below an IQ of 50 honestly should just die.
Me: Well to be fair, they are human beings after all, and all human beings should be treated with respect. It's not like they did something wrong.

1) A person who has almost never heard a swear word in their entire life
2) A person who—over the span of their lifetime—has kept their ears relatively healthy from excessive loud noisy environments. An ear virgin rarely goes out in loud public spaces such as a shopping mall or a nightclub. Because of this, their sense of hearing is generally more acute and more sensitive in their older years compared to the average person in the same age demographic.

1) When I dropped the F bomb in front of Cindy, she was absolutely devastated because she was still an ear virgin
2) People who grew up and lived in the countryside, away from all the noise and traffic, tend to be ear virgins.

The beloved 3.5mm audio port that Apple unjustifiably removed from the iPhone in 2016 which caused a whole domino effect to happen. Eight years later, and most flagships or even mid-range phones lack this basic port. Apple and other manufacturers fabricate lies such as "waterproofing" to fool the masses into believing it was justified.
Economic and financial gains such as cost-cutting and driving sales for bluetooth earbuds are the main motives for the removal.

Literally nobody:
Apple: "Let's all remove this essential port that billions of people use because we love cost-cutting!"
Interesting fact: LG was the only smartphone brand to have kept the headphone jack on all their phones until their demise in 2021
