More like trashy.

That's where I saw them and I thought the seats seemed perfectly normal. Which is to say, not good but not unusually bad.

Everybody else there was sitting, so no, not most people do.

I was there, too, and I saw those guys. They were like the only young people in the vicinity and were so rude too the people around them. I was very glad that they were over to the left of me and not in front of me. There was zero reason to be standing in that section.

Could also be a posture problem.

I saw the Smashing Pumpkins a few years ago here in Seattle. The show was fantastic, but that's not the point.

There were a handful (a very small handful) of young guys who were in the audience, standing up the whole time despite being in the seated section, where there's really no benefit to standing up because you can't see any better.

They were the only ones standing. The people behind and around them would ask them to sit down, and they would act like everybody else was the problem. And then on Reddit, I saw people complaining as though the older fans were the problem for wanting to sit in the sitting section as opposed to the standing section, despite the fact that most of the attendees were in their '30s-40s or older.

No. In the '90s, maybe. But we're getting old now and you need to sit down. Those guys ruined the show for those people who had probably looked forward to seeing Smashing Pumpkins in concert for the last couple decades. Why ruin it for somebody else?

Now, if I went to some random punk show, I would expect to not be sitting. You have to consider where and when you are.

And, the cities being dense urban areas, they tend to have about as large a population as the rural, red areas. Their votes just count less because land is more important in the US than people are and gerrymandering is so popular and effective.

It would require our ability to feed ourselves, house ourselves, and get medical care not being 100% dependent upon employment.

That is so not true. Do you really never see someone being an asshole randomly?

Not in Georgia.

I know, but as you say, it's not standard.
