dumb question

[xatalantax]

Ok, you know how on various snotty LJ rating communities people are always attacking each other for being too "scene" or criticizing how someone looks because they're "just another boring scene girl"? Or maybe you don't know, if you never browse the rating communities as I do on snowed-in weekends when I should really be working instead. Anyway, my question is ... what scene? They talk like there's just one. Which one? General trendy indie electro-emo kids? As far as I can tell that's what it means, since they seem to be referring to girls with teased spiky black hair, lots of makeup, and little shirts with stripes or 80s themes of some kind. I am clueless.
