Get the brunettesmug. The term: Short for independent rock. In terms of music it would be independent of major labels/mainstream stuff.
History: grew out from 60s garage, 70s punk, and 80s post punk it started in the mid 80s as alternative/college radio music. Once nirvana hit big the alternative genre split: the popular side was just alternative(Smashing Pumpkins, Hole, No Doubt, etc.) and the other half that wasn't mainstream(by choice or not) became indie rock(Pavement, Sebadoh, Built To Spill, etc).
Some bands have signed to major labels but are still considered indie(Modest Mouse, etc.). Go figure.
Sound: In the begining indie sounded like alternative(because it was) but it grew more experimental and weird. In Britain indie has more of a typical sound like Radiohead, Muse, etc. rather than a definition based on 'the scene.'
The scene: if you really think all indie kids do is try to be cooler than other people then... well.. you're mostly right. The main point is, don't take the scene and the whole hipster attitude seriously. No one does. And if you do, well, then I'm cooler than you.

Get the stummymug. Berton had this basic guitar and drum riff lying around for a long time," he said, "even before the Knack got together. He played it for me, and I really liked it. I said we would do it someday, but I didn't know how we could use it at the time. Then, at the same time the Knack started, I met a little girl named Sharona, whom I fell in love with. When I would think about Sharona, Berton's riff came to mind. So Berton and I got together and worked out a structure and a melody and the words. The result was 'My Sharona'."

Get the squirrelingmug. I dont really know why there is so much talk about these damn braclets...I really dont think that people are actually fucking because someone broke there "black braclet...well at least I didn't." Come on people get over it. My 4 year old sister has a pink one that i gave her. I really dont think that someone is going ot brake it and expect her do do something with them "and if they do I will kill them." The first one that I ever had was a black one and my dad saw it he told me that "he knew what it meant and he really didnt want me to waer it." I didnt even know what it meant "whatever." Whoever made up the "snap" game I would like to thank you because everytime some stupid horney little boy brakes my braclets...I get the chance to beat the hell out of him and tell him that he better buy me a new one or I will beat the hell out of him again. They're just braclets...I dont think that people are actually doing what they mean and if they are then they are prolly just horney and enjoy the attention. It is a "fad" it will pass and something else will take its place and then they will be trying to ban that from every school too.
