How many of you...

[BassPlayer95]

Thanks so much for the info guys. Not that it'll change my mom's mind, but I found it very interesting.

[xImNotEdgex]

i have three jobs actually and ive worked at one of them since i was 14 and im 19
i smoke cigarettes and drink an occasional beer
i listen to alot of different types of music, some of its heavy and some of its shit you've probably heard on the radio

you cant stereotype someone for the way they dress
just because i have my ears stretched to 3/4ths and going up and have tats and my septum pierced does not mean i worship the devil
i can hold down a job better than your mom.
and i bet if your mom would actually have a conversation with some one like me she wouldnt have a problem with the way we look
ive changed alot of peoples minds about me
i come off rough around the edges but really im a respectful young man who doesnt worship satan or smoke crack...

I work in childcare and have for many years. I have never had trouble finding a job.
I have taken child development. Currently am on my way to a degree in accounting.
I have never even tried drugs.Its inexcusable in the childcare field and I would not jeopardize my future for it.
I volunteer as a lighting director so I basically run lighting and design lighting for concerts and shows. I listen to all kinds of music. mainly punk and hard rock.
My mom hates my music too but since I am an adult and don't live with her, its my decision. I had to wait to move out till I did a lot of what I wanted to do. My parents respect me for that, and no longer nag me about my "alternative" lifestyle.

3. Not really smoker or drinker but I have done and don't mind them

1. How many of you have a stable job or have qualifications for a job (The economy sucks.)
I don't have a job right now, but I've had some in the past where they didn't mind my lobes.

2. How many of you graduated highschool, or higher levels of education?
I'm going into my junior year. My high school doesn't care about body jewellery or tattoos.

3. Do you use drugs/whatever?
Weed on a semi-regular basis. Shrooms a couple times. Gonna do X at the end of the month for an electronic-music festival. I have a high alcohol intolerancy/allergy so I don't drink anymore and I smoke socially because now I don't really have enough money to always buy packs.

4. Do you listen to what my mom refers to as "devil worshipping" music? AKA, heavy metal.
Sometimes I listen to the really old and popular ones like Led Zeppelin and Iron Maiden.

Tell your mom that the closest thing to "devil music" I listen to is 1970's girl-rock like Heart, The Runaways, and Suzi Quatro.

P.S.: Your mom and mine sound like they should be best friends.
