What is sTeAmPuNk?A group of 40 something virgins that seriously need to get over themselves - They ponce around with cogs, plastic guns and "rocket powered" roller skates, desperately craving the tiniest morsel of attention from anybody who will even catch them in the corner of their (non-mechanical) eye. It would be SLIGHTLY impressive (but still ridiculously pointless) if their clockwork gadgets ACTUALLY did something. But, alas, all they are managing to achieve is a BAD rip-off of the bad guys from the 'Wild Wild West' movie...on behalf of Kenneth Branagh: "CRINGE". Why don't they put their pretentious, role play, egocentric (and obviously jobless) days into doing something constructive? If they are going to continue to manufacture corrigated cardboard machine outfits, at least, MAKE SURE THEY FUNCTION!!! Wearing monacles, top-hats, badly tailored suits, penny whistles sprayed silver, pocket watches and faux rocket-packs - labelling themselves as "STEAM PUNKS" DOES NOT MAKE THEM INDIVIDUAL (Although the steam and punks are yet to be seen, unless badly accessorised Victorian Geography teacher encapsulates that description?) They have established themselves as the latest brigade of complete and utter self-indulgent tools to disgrace the music scene and need to get a grip. Person 1: "Oh my God! They think they're out of that Will Smith movie...what utter states!!!" sTeAmPuNk - meme gifsTeAmPuNk - videoSTeAmPuNk - what is it?(credited directly from Glenn Hetrick from Face Off 8x13) So many Steampunk shows feel like society has completely fallen apart and is trying to rebuild.

STeAmPuNk - what does it mean?A delayed afterbirth of all the lame subcultures spawned in the 1990's, because everything has to evolve into a trend and everyone needs to feel they can wholeheartedly ascribe to something. "I was kicked from the Steampunk kickball team because my metallic accoutrements were more silver-colored than bronze." STeAmPuNk - meaningA former goth who suddenly discovered the color brown.

STeAmPuNk - definitionA lifestyle choice, wherein the participants embrace deliberate anachronism and quasi-anachronism as seen in steampunk fiction. Often characterized by modifying one's electronic gadgets to make them look a century out-of-date.

STeAmPuNk - slangDirectly from Wikipedia: Abney Park (album cover artwork) shows members dressed in steampunk outfits of the time. Also the Golden Compass book series by Philip Pullman, describes the use and interest of steampunk subculture. Also look at H. G. Wells's The Time Machine. STeAmPuNkA type of subculture that mixes the clothing styles of past generations (such as the Victorian era) with modern conveniences, creating inventions that look as if they could have been created generations ago. For instance, a gameboy would be powered by steam and contain clockwork parts rather than silicon and electrical wiring. This "mad-scientist" culture is based on works by such authors as Jules Verne and H.G. Wells. Related to the Punk subculture by the "Do-It-Yourself" attitude, though many steampunks will buy ready made materials and customize them. The entire subculture is based on mostly on aesthetics, though functionality is highly prized as well. Person 1: "I love those goggles! They're so steampunk; where did you get them?"
