Hot Topic is not Steampunk!

Yes, the title of this entry is a nod to MC Lars' "Hot Topic is not Punk Rock".

If you haven't already heard, take a look here: Steampunk at Hot Topic.

Now, I don't really have a problem with this as it will only make acquiring SP related items easier once the fad fades and dies. The only thing that irks me a bit is the fact that every mall goth and scene kid will be wearing goggles, neon colored vests and shutter shades. Hell, there may even be a few bands with a single vocalist and keyboardist rapping over half-assed emo-tronic beats. They could even dub themselves "Steamcrunk".

Perhaps I should copyright that name so I can get some royalties when the bands start getting popular.
