UP THE PUNX - what is it?

Inside joke in the hcr, punk and, through some sort of internet voodoo magic, snickering indiekid communities. A way of pointing out that something or someone is flying the punk flag a bit too high.

Can also be used to point out that a punk has gotten old and gone corporate.

Punx: "Did you see American Hardcore yet?"
Hcr: "Yeah, Keith Morris sure was upping the punx with those dreads"
Snickering indiekid: "Heh." *blogs it*

What does "UP THE PUNX" mean?

To make something considerably more "punk rock". Or, in contrast, to point fun at the lengths some will go to portray their punk rock attitude. A joke in punk rock, about punk rock.

"Oh, hey I like all the studs on your new leather jacket. It goes really well with your Casulties back-patch. Oh, yeah I'm sure they were really kick-ass at warped tour, up the punx...idiot."
