Here's your question and answer of the week from the Punknews Formspring:
Q: Do the editors identify themselves as "punks," or do they simply have punkish attributes?
A: I can't say for all the editors. I think we all display varying degrees of what people might consider "punk". For example, I know Adam and myself (Rich) have not piercings or tattoos. Then you have editors like Justin and Brittany with gauges and Chris Moran with all his crazy tattoos and Aubin who's some sort of spy for a covert agency looking to over throw all government ever, even in the past (or so I believe).
Personally, I like the music. I don't know if I'd be identified as "punk" and stopped self-identifying as such years ago to avoid the constant confrontations/confusion. It was 50/50 "Oi, you're not punx, I live in teh dumpster and spend all day fucking the man!" vs. "You're Punk? But where's your mowhawk? Are you gonna beat me up?" I still try to live by many of the values I believed in when I was punk, but I don't do anything to really label myself as such.
