Ask a Juggalo some questions.

[SnootyEnglishman]

I read something about this Juggalo and ICP thingy in the Sunday Times supplement, which is
about as mainstream as you can get. There was some nonsense about them being secretly Christians, which was apparently the fact that rendered them worthy of an article. Was that true? Or some sort of self promotional thing?

To be honest, the whole thing made me glad to be too old to get involved in the music sub-culture game anymore. Fun when you are 16 or whatever though!

Actually yes they do have religious sub-themes within their music hell each of the 6 Joker's card had a kind of allegory to them. Which if you didn't pick up on that the whole way then listen to the song "Thy Unveiling" and it explains everything.

Why do you want me to ask you a question so you can answer it?

If you have a question about ICP and Juggalo's feel free to ask.

That doesn't answer my question, though. I asked why, not what should I ask.

 

[SnootyEnglishman]

Is there an ICP song that manages not to swear?

No and why would you have a problem with that?

Cause answering questions is fun.

Ever heard of Vampiro?

Ever heard of Vampiro?

Yes i have.

Because I like words that aren't sweary.

Being a Juggalo defines us as standing out from the norm and mainstream.

This is gonna get me reported but sod it, this rant has been brewing for some time.

Being a "Juggalo" is just liking a band, it is not a sufficient criteria to develop a goddamn identity around, if you take it that seriously please apply palm to face as the inanity of that is mind boggling.

I mean its like back in secondary school when the emos used to get all poetic about their energy drink of choice.

By all means enjoy the band but please got some perspective on the matter.

Don't you find it at all ironic that in trying to be underground and avoid the mainstream you opt to follow a band which is by all accounts well known, well recognised and in many ways mainstream.

Moreover do you not find it a mite hypocritical that you (in this thread at least) seem to dislike the mainstream when you yourself are nothing but the product of a blatant manipulation attempt by individuals who have convinced you that by emulating them you are unique and that doing it in shuffling step with thousands of others you avoid being part of the culture that you so hate, despite it being the exact opposite; a complete and obvious trap for people like you to be sucked straight into another culture which is just as mainstream and uninspiring as the one you rail against?

Or is it just me?

My point exactly.

(Or it would have been if Id been able to actually put my grievance into words).

EDIT= And another thing, one Im sure someone else has mentioned how does liking a band give you such a sufficiently different cultural identity that it warrants this type of thread?
I mean they're normally reserved for different religions or moral stances.
I mean with this why not a tonne of other topics like-

"Ask someone with brown eyes a few questions!"
"Ask a someone who is 3 inches shorter then the national average what his views on life the universe and everything is, due to this enormous difference in height giving him a vastly different perspective on the big issues in all our lives!"

Makes me think if is should make a "Ask a tanned slut some questions" thread.

Do you really view yourself as a slut? I don't know you so I couldn't say yes or no but that doesn't seem like a very good self-description :\

 

[JayDig]

For a moment, I thought you'd typed "Jigallo", English slang for a male prostitute.

That would have made the thread weird....creepy and weird and yet worryingly compelling.

I clicked for the candid confessions of a male prostitute... and was very disappointed

 

[Greni]

Why are we here? What's life all about? Is God really real, or is there some doubt?

 

[Vandenberg1]

Yes as the topic name implies i am indeed a fan of Insane Clown Posse, so i know of all the hate that will come towards me. However if anyone does have a decent question to ask i implore you to do so.

Since i know a majority of the hate-filled questions will be about Magnets and how they work i will explain that very thing.

Magnets work by producing a magnetic field which is invisible to the naked eye but can attract magnetic materials such as iron. We got the term from Greece where magnet was short for the term "Stone of Magnesia" a region where Lodestones, a naturally magnetic stone, were known to be found. That's just a summary for i don't think i need to write a whole paragraph on that.

Now with that out of the way...BRING IT ON HATERS!!!

Why won't you fucking die? *To Band*

ok..ok... seriously.. I don't care for rap.. I don't care for bad rap, I don't care enough to hate ICP.. I hate THE FANS.. My friend Rachel got beat up by a little-dickless Juggalo for saying crap about them laughily on FACEBOOK... FACEBOOK...

And why are most ICP females disgusting?

 

[DEAD34345]

OHH!!! "Juggalo", Jugallo!

Christ, what a random name for a fan of a band (or whatever the "Insane Clown Posse" is). Well, I can move along now I guess. No Jiggalos here. Actually this has worried me slightly, did I honestly want to see a thread where people ask a male prostitute questions? Bleh.

whoop whoop MMFCL man, hey are you looking forward to the new album in March? what're your thoughts on their post-Wraith work? personally I've been down since Carnival of Carnage and don't see that changing anytime soon.

And to everyone that's had to deal with the minority of jerks that give our family (as well as all fandoms) a bad name, apologies from someone who embraces the true spirit of their message..

and in keeping with that message (yes i know it's a cover but i like their version better XD)

What is a Juggalo?

Seriously, I have no idea what this means, let alone hate you for whatever it implies.

That would have made the thread weird....creepy and weird and yet worryingly compelling.

I came here specifically because that's what I thought it said! I was a little dissapointed. Does that make me a bad person?

Why define yourself in a certain way just because you like a certain thing?

I mean halo fans dont get called "haloers" and have a thing were they all walk around in master chief cosplay, so why do fans of a second rate rap band do it?

In fact why do Bronies get called Bronies? It makes no sense and just strikes me as the pits of anorak behaviour.

Urgh, mostly because people are generally, by their very nature, scared of anything different. We like to put things in little groups so we can categorise them and make ourselves feel better about it.

Call the MLP fanbase "Bronies" and instantly you have a way to refer to and direct your hate at, an entire group! How convenient.

But on the flip side you can also use these terms to show pride in something you like. More often than not, these names are made by the people within the groups themselves anyway. I happen to be a brony and a furry. It doesn't necessarily define who I am nor tell you everything about me, but it lets you know the sort of things I like and that I'm not afraid to admit that.

But remember kids, all people who use the internet are social outcasts! Being part of a group makes you feel accepted!

Either way you look at it, labels like this are just stupid and they only make prejudice just that little easier to achieve.

OT: Clowns terrify me, I shouldn't have even come here...

 

[JaceArveduin]

Any idea if Sweet Tooth has any relevance to them? I know Twisted Metal came out after them.

 

[Something Amyss]

What "Brony" and "Juggalo" have in common is they're both from the community itself, self-described epithets that were then picked up on by people who saw the community as a bunch of twits.

This is one of the reasons that, even when I listened to ICP frequently, I would never calll myself a "Juggalo." The connotation is completely negative to virtually everyone, and my fellow "fans" came off as massive idiots.

not even really prejudice, it's experience.

 

[Zyst]

For the most part, an uneducated, pathetic excuse for a human being who listens to the group ICP who are bold enough to actually consider themselves musicians. People you see wearing "hatchet-man" accesories. They should not be allowed to reproduce, because that is too cruel to future generations. ICP isn't rap, it isn't metal, it isn't rap/metal, and it isn't horrorpop. There is only one way to properly categorize ICP; unnecessarily and unartfully offensive and obnoxious noise.
That juggalo is stupid enough to think that ICP is music.

What do you think of this? (Definition from http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=juggalo)
