    I remember one time in college, there were these military people handing out flyers to everyone who walked past them. Except me. I had my hair spiked up as always, one of my band shirts, my fingerless skeleton gloves, and my battle vest. I walked past them twice because they occupied that same hallway all day, they didn't bother me once. I guess they didn't think I was army material. Ya know what? They weren't wrong.

    I'm really sorry to hear the story about the baptism, it's a completely out of line thing for the priest to do. Even if he may have disapproved of your interests or was one of the people who thought metal music was satanic (and chances are it was judged purely on appearance), there is no reason to judge someone so harshly as to exclude them from a ceremony like that.
    As a Christian, he should have seen it as an opportunity to involve someone and make them feel welcome in the Church community, possibly opening the mind towards religion just a little bit then, and instead due to his own prejudice, he likely shut that door even more.
    It's a huge shame and a huge disrespect overall.

    The community college I work at has some posers. One wore a Blind Guardian shirt, and another wore an Iron Maiden shirt - I complimented them for wearing the shirt to support the bands... and both said they got the shirt because "it looked cool" and had never heard their songs. That was excruciatingly awkward.

    Not even metal related, but I was almost not let into the DMV to get my new license because the security guard wanted me to name all the members of The Smashing Pumpkins before letting me in. I was wearing their merch, and I have bad anxiety so if you catch me off guard - I probably wouldn’t even remember my own name if you asked suddenly lol. Needless, to say I couldn’t get any words out and then he looked at me funny and said I shouldn’t be allowed to own my shirt and let me in. Big yikes moment lol

    Your story about the baptism reminds me of my own somewhat awkward metalhead moment. I had recently made my first battle vest and wore it anywhere in public any chance I got. One day I was visiting my parents and they asked me to pick up my younger brother from his cross country practice. While I was there I ran into the reverend from my parents' church, since his son was also on the team. I had stopped attending church as a teen, and was a college student at the time, so the reverend hadn't seen me in a while and we caught up.
    The entire time I was wearing my battle vest, which had several band logos with pentagrams. I just hoped he didn't see the patch on my back that said "Satan" (with the T as an inverted cross) as I left. Although I was obviously not religious at the time, I didn't have any personal beef with Christianity, not that my outfit made it obvious.
    Ironically I am now converting to Catholicism and have made a few adjustments to that vest. At least Catholic priests don't marry or have kids so I don't need to worry about running into my priest picking his kids up from practice anymore lol

    @LaurenStellerSeaEagle 6 месяцев назад +5

    I'm new here(thx algorithm!). Liked and subscribed!
    I had a friend from Barbados, her second cousin was married to a Haitian. Unfortunately, the marriage did not work out and all of the family from Barbados were afraid that the in-laws were going to curse them. They take that shit seriously it was some real family drama!
    Your Godfather Situation at the house sounds like the most Metal episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" ever!
    Personal experiences...One of my most favorite shirts that I own is a pink Mayhem "Deathcrush" shirt(If you know, you know!!!). I have to be careful where I wear it because my mother is Christian and most of my beloved co-workers are as well. I'm in my 40's and still have to remind myself not to wear "offensive clothing"! What's that all about?!
    I have worn all black since high school and I grew up in a rural town. One day in a mathematics class, some blockhead jock-types asked me why I wear all black. Without missing a beat, I said "I'm Amish.". They say "Why don't you go to Amish school then?". I reply, "How many Amish schools do you think are around here? Name one.". For the rest of the semester I could hear them behind me talking about "The Amish Girl".
    Final one. My Metal friends and I go to a 24 hour restaurant called Steak & Shake after my ex and his friends had played a show. They were a Powerviolence inspired band. Our server, a very sweet Southern lady, says "You people must be in a band.". To which they reply "Actually, we are.". Sweet lady says "Do you play music like AC/DC?". This kid who was hanging out with us blurts out, "Have you heard of Anal Cunt? They sound like that.". Everyone except for that kid did a facepalm.

    I got one story. It was almost awkward.
    I was walking to the library one day, cause it's within walking distance. I came across this one vehicle where this guy had a bunch of Black Metal band logos plastered all over the back of his window. He noticed me staring at the back of his car reading all the bands he had. He asked me what the fuck I was doing, and I told him I was just reading all the bands. I complimented him on it and he was relieved that I wasn't some religious nutjob.

    I used to have a silver necklace w/ a pentagon star on it (upside up) and this older guy asked me if it was a Jewish symbol. I told him no and he told me I'd better take it off. It wasn't a pentagram like you have behind you in that it was up side up and no circle around it which is not associated w/ evil as far as I knew/know. I found it was more a symbol of power or magic (I didn't look any further than that afterwards or since). That threw me off initially, but the guy probably meant well. Just know what you're talking about before saying something like that.

    The fact that most people both in and out of the community that are into holistic medicine, astrology, ghosts, magic, religion, conspiracy theories (and I mean those types are into it all not just one) also think I'm like them just because I'm a metal head. Yeah I like horror and dark things but I'm an atheist. Most of times I just smile and nod. I'm also really shy to connect to a fellow metal head that I see in the wild. So I just awkwardly look at them and their shirts while I try to play it cool but also try to make them see me, my battle vest or my phone playlist as we pass by.

    Don’t worry about the Metalhead haters. It happens! You should see how some people treat Metalheads in Greece. Some people in Greece believe that if you are a Heavy Metal music or Rock music fan you are a satanist or a punk.

    I don't normally have any awkward moments like this but, I did encounter a Christian person at the park this past fall when I was walking past him and his dog and I was wearing my leather jacket, skull necklace, leather skull gloves, studded belt, silver biker chain, and my Old Man's Child shirt, and as I crossed a bridge to get past him he asked me "do you know where you're going after you die?" and of course I said "well that depends" (because I'm agnostic and I even told him that) and that lead to a bit of an awkward conversation with him showing me christian videos on RUclips involving the supposed "meaning" of YHWH (in which YHWH doesn't mean what he was showing me at all, YHWH is the exact opposite of holy, (but of course I didn't say that to him out of respect for his beliefs)). But yeah, that's my awkward experience.

    Or being told by my toxic great aunt that metal is a gateway to other "unnatural, immoral practices"
