The Quincy Punk: Difference between revisions

Hence, the Quincy Punk. The Quincy Punk looks for all the world like a stereotypical punk -- mohawk in all the colors of the Kool-Aid rainbow, studded leather jacket, and very uncomfortable piercings. The music he listens to is distorted and raw, like hardcore on PCP, and [[Did Not Do the Research|often doesn't much resemble actual punk rock]]. He's an anarchist, but it's more about [[Bomb-Throwing Anarchists|setting fire to a police station]] than [[Useful Notes/Political Ideologies|any sort of rational opinion on Kropotkin's]] ''[[Useful Notes/Political Ideologies|Mutual Aid]]''. Oh. And he hates you. The Quincy Punk is most often used as [[White Gang-Bangers|a stock mugger, thug, or street gang member]] for superheroes or other urban vigilantes to kick the crap out of, allowing for an intimidating image in an urban setting while avoiding the [[Unfortunate Implications]] of [[Batman]] beating the crap out of more racially-oriented street criminals.

For actual information on Punk rock, see [[Useful Notes/Punk|Punk]] or the [[Punk Rock]] page. Nothing to do with [[John Quincy Adams|the president]], unless some tell-all biography reveals his youthful radicalism.
