shitpostcore? cringeculturecore? memecore??? idfk: those sans wife and girlfriend youtube channels, going on flockmod with friends, joke mary sue ocs, terrible graphic design, weird bootleg toys, vinesauce joel's windows destruction series, jacksfilms (especially the whole emoji movie arc? classic), slightly unnerving stock clip-art, those weird ass disney princess flash games """for kids""", ms paint, filthyfrank, leafyishere, the MLG/illuminati meme era, making serious looking fan-art or fanfic for weird and obscure pieces of media, and never making it clear whether you're mocking this stuff or genuinely enjoying yourself, to the point where even you don't know if you're trolling or not

i also love scene and webcore but i think ya'll have covered that pretty well so am just gonna throw a few specific pieces of childhood memorabilia into the mix

doodlebob and the magic pencil, meloetta: melody of discord, old kirby pmvs reuploaded from niconicodouga, the scratch 1.4 offline editor, and syobon action/cat mario

emo: walking around a high school in 2007 wearing ripped jeans and a my chem shirt, wearing headphones and blasting panic! at the disco thru a black iPod covered in skull stickers, rolling your eyes at every teacher who tells you to take off your black and purple striped beanie, the smell of (black) roses

goblincore: the smell of rain in the forest, wet grass, mushrooms and stumps, the sound of frogs

pastel goth: light purple skulls, pastel red blood, pentagram made of candy

cryptid hunter: old 90s cam quarters, yellow-ish stained maps of the world covered in newspaper articles, a walkman, brown flannel

scene: getting glitter slime stuck in your hair, spending $20 on monster and drinking it all in under 10 minutes, and opossums screaming

emo: messed up eyeliner, frog army in the basement, walking around hot topic for an hour but not buying anything, and shiny boots

weirdcore: barbie heads glued to a doorframe, a piggybank filled with safety pins, the way pencil erasers taste, and spelling simple words wrong

kidcore: making kandi for a plushie, inch the inchworm just existing, a bunch of mlp figures glued together into one big alicorn, and collecting stickers

emo/grunge (idk what to call it): drinking monsters, blasting mcr and arctic monkeys, dark eyeliner/makeup, staying out late at train stations w ur best friend, ripped jeans, fishnet/fingerless gloves, layered chain necklaces and bracelets, hot topic, converse, combat boots

fairygrunge: crystals, mushrooms, frogs, cats, dark forests, moss, long skirts like this, evil eyes, shirts like this, these necklaces layered with chains, fingerless gloves, evil eyes, dark green brown and cream colours, boots

weirdcore/dreamcore: liminal spaces, eyes with wings, empty grass fields, blue skies with limited clouds

i have more but i don’t feel like listing them

these r just my perception on em n what ive seen come from em sry if i offend anybody

goblincore - walking around by the river looking for bugs n cool rocks, ur friends yelling at u to stop eating grass, staying up all night sewing the cool buttons u found today onto a beanie covered in just buttons, napping in a tree, ugly baggy sweaters n muddy boots

folk punk - lottas banjos, trumpets, n awful vocals but in a good way, sleeping on the roof of an old cvs w ur best friend, running around on train tracks as the sun sets, plain black coffee, rolling down hills w ur partner, getting covered in dirt, train hopping across the states, chunky boots, overalls covered in patches n mud, love for animals

crust punk/gutter punk - running away n going homeless w ur best friend, piercing yourself w a safety pin, banging ur head against a wall, baggy crust pants n battle vests that smell awful, having to drench everything in cologne, being high most the time, jokingly bashing urself n ur close friends, collecting different types of knives, skateboarding down a super steep hill n almost bashing ur head in, hanging around in the woods surrounding a cemetery, running away from the cops, exploring abandoned buildings, laughing at dumb shit, sniffing sharpies n glue, an iq of basically 0, almost getting killed on the daily, pissing on trump signs, tagging the places u most often go to w dumb shit, loud aggressive screaming, being as scary as possible when in reality u would do the best u could to help ppl
