Haha that's awesome, but I just hope that the rest of them get over the rap phase and get into other types of music like you did. I don't see that happening though, because I still see people my age listening to rap and trying to be thugs

masses of people will not listen to trance, it's that simple. Trance is underground music and rap is mainstream. I for one like it much better this way. At least when a open-minded person DOES hear some of your trance they will appreciate it instead of people listening to trance cuz it's cool and crazystupidfresh

Well, the whole "trying to be thugs" phase will vanish the second they get outta highschool. As far as the music, ive always been a fan of hiphop, and always will be....im just more selective with what i listen to, and dont appretiate a lot of the commercial shit i once did. As you know, a very small percentage of the population enjoy the music that we do, and personally i prefer it. It gives us our own identity and community (TA).

Just do what I did. I pulled up to the local burger place near our school today blasting Henrik B - Avalon ( a REALLY hard techno song) (this car had a sub, so you could hear it from pretty far away), and some grade 9 punk says "hahahah stupid gino with his gay raver beats" some what quietly to his friends, but loud enough to for me to hear (I was walking by him when I said this). So I plowed through his crowd of friends, went right in front of his face, and said "sorry did the four foot tall grade 9 want to start something with the stupid gay gino ravers?"
That shut him up quick..
Yea yea I know, immature high school stories, but you can't let the little kids get the better of you, or they''ll start trying to start more and more with you later on.

What would have pissed me off is the disrespect between the grade 9s and the grade 12s in your story.
I'm sorry but in highschool the younger kids should not be saying boo to the older kids. That's the circle of life. Once they are grade 12s then they can play whatever music they want but if you are a grade 9, shut the fuck up. In the highschools in my town, this would never fly. I don't know how the politics in Toronto highschools work but its an understandable non-negotiable rule everywhere else.

EXACTLY! It was the lack of respect for grade 12s as well as the music that pissed me off. I don't know where these kids are getting the nerve to say this to people over a foot taller than them
