My 14-year-old isn't especially slangy, but occasionally she asks me if I've heard some term or other, and I invariably haven't. Most recently, it was "Scene," which is apparently some sort of fashion aesthetic.
"Scene" was around when I was in middle and high school around 10 years ago.
They were like the preppy goth kids, who listened to Avril Lavigne and such.
Edit: there's also a Hollywood Undead song that has the lines "wake up, shave beard, grab beer, put on some scene gear"
I'm 47 years old. I have never even heard of Hollywood Undead.
Cool. I was 27 in that case. Why would you expect me to be out there discovering new bands when I was trying to get my career off the ground?
And yet you decided it was unreasonable for me to have not heard of this band.
And there is no way you are my age and "Scene" was a thing when you were in high school. That's just bullshit. This says that it started in the early 2000s:

Damn you went into this thread pissed off, didn't you? You replied to the wrong person. I'm the one who said scene was a thing 10 years ago when I was in high school and middle school.
Chill and fully read the comments (username and all) before replying.
What exactly makes you think I’m angry? Is it my tone of voice?
I mean this with complete sincerity: Lucky you.
And Harry don't mind if he don't make the scene. He's got a daytime job, he's doing all right.
Avril Lavigne? Of Lavigne and Shirley? ;)
Holywood Undead has some rizz skibidy, no cap frfr
Scene fashion is weirdly making a comeback lately, too.
‘Scene’ kids were the Hot Topic emo kids when I was a teenager 20ish years ago. As someone who was into 2nd wave emo, it always made me die a little that ‘Scene’ is what most people think of when they hear ‘emo’.
