Were you an emo/goth/geek/mean girl at school?

14yo DD is into Billy Eilish and other miserable music, but was mystified when I described her as an emo. She knows what goths and means girls are though. I was trying to remember which tribe I was in as a teenager. Probably a bit geeky.

What was your tribe?

How is everyone so sure what group/set/mould they were in, yet I can't give mine a name 😁

Geek who then became more popular in yr 10/11 and then turned indie at uni 😅

I'm from the Midlands and was a Greebo. In our area though it was basically an umbrella term for anyone alt. So it covered punks, goths, skaters, grunge, metal heads, the mad thing is the Internet wasn't a thing yet but we all somehow managed to organically mesh together regardless of genre, aesthetic or school and everyone knew everyone within a 25mile radius because we all went to the same rock night on a Friday night to drink cider in the car park, see bands and try and pull.
