So you’ve been checking out the local emo scene, and think your ready to take over the local scene. Don’t worry, your not alone.

And your never going to do it without the 10 must haves for the up and coming scene kid:

1. Directions to the nearest thrift stores

Fuck abercrombie, fuck pac sun. Your going to a thrift store to get almost everything you wear from now on. That is, if you really want to be scene.

2. Snake Bites

Snake bites are sick! They look awesome and are totally scene. If after seeing this, you have the sudden urge to go outside and get bit by a snake, your not ready to take over the scene.

3. Skinny Jeans

You want to call yourself scene? I hope you have at very least one good pair of skinny jeans. Dickeys work. OR you can learn how to make your own skinny jeans.

4. PETA Membership

Scene much? Well let’s see your PETA membership card. Why do you need one? Uh. Cruelty to animals is sad. It’s mean. Damn. You’ll either join PETA or straight up go vegan. Or if your really scene, say screw the animals, they don’t know what suffering is until they spend a day in your shoes. Right?

5. Flair

Okay. I have to admit, I’m watching Office Space right now. (If you have never seen it, go watch it now!) If you want to be scene, you need “flair”. Bracelets, buttons, studded belts, scarfs, all that stuff. You can get some idea’s on Emo Bucket’s galleries, so I won’t bother mentioning all the cool accessories you could go buy.

6. Icons

What would the world, or any myspace profile, be without emo icons. Your right. It would suck. Every up coming scene kid needs some emo icons to plaster on their profiles, as their avatars, in their sigs, anywhere and everywhere.

7. The (5) Things Every Scene Kids Need

Ohh… What are the 5 things ever scene kid needs? I guess you missed our previous post. You need to go read it… now.. Come on, It’s Right Here.

8. (8) Really Emo Games

I can’t think of a better way to waste my free time than playing some really emo games. Wondering what 8 of the most emo games might be? Check them out.

9. Tattoos

Expressing yourself has never been easier. Just save $100, find a reputable tattoo shop in your area, and set up an appointment for an hour of self harm. It’s like cutting yourself thousands of times in one sitting.

10. A Digital Camera

Myspace mirror shots. Showing the world how scene you are. You need a digital camera. Old school looking cameras are best for mirror shots, or extremely new trendy cams. Whichever. If you don’t own a digital camera, and won’t own one for awhile, you need to make some digital-camera-having-friends with the quickness.
