SY always felt like an anti-scene scene.. sure SK were darlings of music magazines BUT here in LA the shows didn't feel like a scenster band until 2005 and yes, at the reunion show.

Yeah, but that's a misconception. We all know we genuinely love the music we love. We probably all have gone through phases of following a herd in one way or another, but if other folks think we still do that, it's only because that behavior is so second nature to them that they think it must apply to everyone.
I don't see it as an insult. When I say we all have a little hipster in us, I just mean we all share a love of underground music and indie culture (to varying degrees). That's all.
