Reply to comment by MyHeadbeDirty in DVD made in CT/Wallingford/New Haven in early 2000's with 3 segments: "Stone Soup" "Fighter Z" and another one by Ambartenen

A sub genre of the punk scene that’s been around since the 80’s where on top of all the normal punk/counterculture stuff, they also do not bathe. Like for months at a time.

Ahh, you mean Stanks? In the 90’s and 2000’s, when you’d go to the Tune Inn, that’s what we’d always call them. They were usually dicks. If they didn’t like the band playing, they’d go in the crowd and face the audience, not the band.

Never heard that term, but yeah, that sounds like a crusty move!

It was 20+ plus years ago. Shit, almost 30 years ago. Thanks for making me feel old! 😂😂😂

It must’ve been super regional. I’ve been embedded in punk scenes my entire life (33 YO) and never heard it, and even google brings up nothing. I LOVE hearing shit like this.
