* In the "Smells Like Teen Spirit" music video, the cheerleaders wear red "A"s on their shirts. Cobain originally got the idea for the song from his friend [[Music/BikiniKill Kathleen Hanna]], during a discussion of anarchy and rock. The "A" could stand for anarchy, or be an allusion to ''Literature/TheScarletLetter'', which is about a girl who's alienated for her actions. Punk rock and grunge music was considered the ultimate edgy and alienating music a person could listen to, and the culture it established intentionally drove itself away from the mainstream.
* Another example from "Smells Like Teen Spirit": A common stereotype among troubled teenagers is that they all get bad grades in school. "Teen Spirit" is played in the key of F minor.
