Crust punks have trust funds and think being smelly and disgusting scumbags is some sort of statement.

Hippies are just smelly because they're lazy, though. When they're energetic they smell like patchouli, which is actually worse than body odor.

It's dumb to accept customers who are a pain and barely have any money.

Cuban revolutionary bar..?
This is starting to sound weirdly familiar...
This had better be an odd coincidence because if I find out we were local...
We used to a get a lot of crust punks, particularly of the Trust Punk variety, hanging around at an indoor alt market, which still has a few stalls there that seem to be meant for these and the dirty hippy crowd, plus one of the inner-city parks was rife with them of a weekend. I kept my distance, though, so no interesting stories for you I'm afraid, and they all seem to have moved on. Must have been about when they close the doc. martin store...

Yea it's the theme of the place, Pictures of Che up all over the wall's, communist iconography all over the place the staff have name tag's saying "Hi I'm Comrade Bob" etc the sort of place Phil would love because it's all image and owned by a major UK chain.

... Okay, might sound like a strange question... Is this place primarily a cocktail bar/restaurant that serves killer pulled pork and turns into a nightclub of an evening? And actually has a membership/discount card?

Hippies also tend to be peaceful earth-health-types, while crustpunks are belligerent and self-destructive.

No, belligerent and self-destructive (and destructive to property) describes hippies pretty well actually.

I guess I'm thinking of the apolitical types. The ones who get involved in things like Occupy, on the other hand, fit that bill.

I was friendlier than I care to admit with crusties growing up, mostly just because I couldn't get into bars and wanted to get drunk. Definitely a strange, strange subculture. Some are genuine gutter trash who belong in prison, some are hopelessly deluded rich kids chasing a naive sense of adventure, some are just batshit insane manchildren like ADF. Only common thread is they're all mostly pretty terrible people who are outside society for good reason. The few "good ones" I've met have sort of grown out of it and are very jaded about the lifestyle. One good hearted, but tragically stupid fucking kid in his early 20s got a shitty tattoo on his face that just said "Scumfuck" in a 13 year olds handwriting. Possibly the most annoying thing about them (and that is no small statement) is their utter delusion about the rest of the world. Most of them act like they're genuinely unaware that there are people who earn money without panhandling and spend money on things other than liquor and drugs. The notion of getting a job or having a job is confusing to them. It's incredibly embarrassing when they say shit like "homebums" (actual homeless people) or "housepunks" within earshot of normal people.

Hey! I was a crusty in the late 80s.
The economy was in the shit and nobody was going to give an under 20 a job when they could get a family guy to do the work for the same money (pre minimum wage) so the only way to leave home, which I was desperate to do, was squat and/or jump in a converted bus or van.
We drank Newkie Broon or Snakebite cos they hadnt started importing lager yet, had great sex with admittedly hairy women and invented the UK rave scene in the process.

Forget Alex Delarge. Crustpunks make me yearn for Soviet-style police brutality

In my experience crusties have all acted like they're so progressive and transgressive, but when you get two of them together they're all the cattiest, cliquiest, most holier-than-thou little bitches. A lot of heroin and rape too.

I used to have friends that had other friends who were crust punks. During a party I opened up one of my antibiotic pills and laid a pile of it on the coffee table, within 5 minutes some chick went over and railed it.

Do you actually have to intend to be a crust punk to be a crust punk? Or are you one if you're just a punk and for whatever reason, you're wearing a shitty overcoat covered in someone else's puke and you're strung out on downers and cheap vodka?
