>>28450616 (OP)A stancefag is an attention whore, but one without merit. He's the kind of kid who didn't get attention, but wasn't good enough at anything to get positive attention, so he acted out to get negative attention instead of being ignored. The problem kid in your class that slowed the teacher down by being an asshole, the kid that pissed his dad off on purpose to get some attention out of him instead of totally ignored. He is doing something that he knows other people think is stupid and cringe, because it's the only way he knows how to get the recognition he craves. Notice that the stancefag carefully cultivates in image of not caring what others think, while doing things that are specifically designed to get noticed. He doesn't actually like doing the stuff he does, he craves the attention it gets him, even if it is nearly universal derision. The cars are collateral damage to them. Notice that you'll never see a stancefag with any sort of talent, they always either pay someone else to do the work, or do extremely shitty work themselves. Even when they gain experience and money, they can't help but fuck it up because they don't take anything seriously. A recent example of this is stanceworks mike welding an intercooler for his time attack project up out of stupidly thin aluminum and being surprised when ripped open, then hanging a turbo way the fuck off of the engine with a thin wall adapter pipe which broke off at a track day because no shit retard. The stancefag is mediocre in every single way, and can't stand that, so he must stand out, even if it's by being a tryhard cringe faggot.
