Yeah, I'm guessing you're seeing the same people I was talking about. I don't associate with those people, and consider them to generally be trend chasing teenagers/early-twenty-somethings who are either a few years from aging out of metal or will probably be pumping gas for the rest of their lives. If they had heard ICP before they heard Job for a Cowboy they probably would have been juggalos.
