I completely misread that and thought Belle & Sebastian were selling their own juice, then I clicked on it and thought what has Built To Spill done now? Then I thought, wait, why hasn't anyone mentioned Insane Clown Posse on this thread before?

Did the original tweeter write “B * S” in an effort to avoid detection, but all those stans found & swarmed him anyway?

Fucking fan subcultures, how do they work? (See what I did there?)

pomenitul, Saturday, 27 April 2019 21:53 (seven years ago)

In case you didn't catch that, I was alluding to a song by Insane Clown Posse, who are particularly well known for having their own fan subculture.

And of course in Spain you have Banda de Payasos Dementes and their hardcore fans 'Los Malabaristolós'

mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Tuesday, 11 June 2019 13:40 (six years ago)

Autechre's fans are essentially an autistic subculture. Oh, and don't forget The Grateful Dead!

I'll see myself out

Silver Jews

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 12 June 2019 21:37 (six years ago)

Maybe a stretch but after learning they exist, people that still stan Sublime in 2019 must be considered an (admittedly, extremely tiny) subgenre, no?

Also, astounded that Juggalos haven't been mentioned yet.

soaring skrrrtpeggios (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Thursday, 13 June 2019 18:07 (six years ago)

Subculture is what I obviously meant, thanks phone.

soaring skrrrtpeggios (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Thursday, 13 June 2019 18:08 (six years ago)

wait how has no one mentioned ICP & Juggalos yet??????? They are the only true example left, besides Phish Phans I guess. but Juggalos are the only true subculture, Phish Phans and Deadheads going to see Bob & co. are more integrated into mainstream society.

flappy bird, Thursday, 13 June 2019 18:10 (six years ago)

ha was just coming here to post about the gatherings of the juggalos

hollow your fart (m bison), Thursday, 13 June 2019 18:45 (six years ago)

ICP has a subculture of fans. They are known as Jugheads.

Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Thursday, 13 June 2019 18:52 (six years ago)

Huh, Silver Jews?

All those middle aged men drinking white wine in the sun.

kraudive, Friday, 14 June 2019 18:45 (six years ago)

Also. ICP. C'mon.

kraudive, Friday, 14 June 2019 18:46 (six years ago)

there's one really obvious one that I can't believe everyone missed - Parrotheads

frogbs, Friday, 14 June 2019 18:52 (six years ago)

They are not dressing as parrots they are dressing as clowns c'mon man

cwkiii, Saturday, 15 June 2019 01:22 (six years ago)

why don't lambchop fans all dress like sheep?

Insane Clown Posse

Anti-Cop Ponceortium (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 20:26 (five years ago)

Crazy to think that this thread was started EXACTLY two years and one day ago and no one has mentioned Insane Clown Posse yet.

pomenitul, Wednesday, 5 August 2020 20:27 (five years ago)

fucked up, they are v popular

methinks dababy doth bop shit too much (m bison), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 20:30 (five years ago)

they've also got the juggalos

frogbs, Wednesday, 5 August 2020 20:32 (five years ago)

Do juggalos know about Insane Clown Posse? I could seem them being fans.

jmm, Wednesday, 5 August 2020 20:34 (five years ago)

they are both "down with the clown" (fans of krusty the klown)

methinks dababy doth bop shit too much (m bison), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 20:37 (five years ago)

you're also forgetting the fans of Jimmy Buffett. They're called Juggalos iirc.

Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 20:52 (five years ago)

*thinks about it for the first time, 0.2 seconds later becomes furious that Jimmy Buffett fans are not called Buffalos*

Steppin' RZA (sic), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 21:42 (five years ago)

what was the name of that group that did "Magnetcles"?

XVI Pedicabo eam (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 22:05 (five years ago)

I know they're not exactly favorites around here, but you gotta recognize Insane Clown Posse and their fans who call themselves "Juggalos"

Thicc Nhat Wanh (rip van wanko), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 22:11 (five years ago)

I actually like them a lot. Please don't FP me.

pomenitul, Wednesday, 5 August 2020 22:12 (five years ago)

FP? Faygo please?

Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 22:31 (five years ago)

Carcass fans should be called Jugulars

doorstep jetski (dog latin), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 22:49 (five years ago)

Iirc fans of the Dave Matthews Band call themselves the Insane Clown Posse. Just a weird coincidence.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 5 August 2020 23:05 (five years ago)

I call them frat boys, boom, roasted

Thicc Nhat Wanh (rip van wanko), Wednesday, 5 August 2020 23:10 (five years ago)

“Insane Clown Pose” is my favorite Soundgarden song

can't believe nobody has thought of ICP!

come on u sleepin'

Neanderthal, Saturday, 5 September 2020 02:19 (five years ago)

hey, just seeing this thread was bumped -- have Juggalos been mentioned? I saw a meme about them the other day and they definitely appear to be a subculture -- I think the meme involved Juggalos vs. Neo-nazis?
