No like in general like what would be a sin to do while being a proggie. I'm just doing this for the heck of it. For example it's a sin to stop and leave in the middle of an epic

Oh... emm, let's see:

Being thrilled by a simple three-chord song.
If you hear something "strange" go 'OMG!".

Those are two, and yes, it's just satire or pointing out something like a stereotype that is not actually good.

Finding yourself singing the hook to Alejandro by Lady Gaga at work could be one.  Though I change the lyrics to make fun of my lazy coworker.  "Don't wanna work.  Don't wanna work.  Fernando."

What I'm getting at is to put what some wrong things to do in prog like skipping a long song etc.

1) Giving five stars to a clone of a 70's major band;
2) Asking what was the first prog album;
3) Complaining about raspy or growling vocals;
4) Prefering Rush or Kansas to Yes or Pink Floyd (Goddamn it, pledge allegiance to the Union Jack for once in your life, it's allowed in the community!)
5) Misusing the tag "Avant-Garde";
6) Talking about Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber or Kanye West, even if it's for saying bad things about them (why don't you get a job instead?)
7) Thinking you're all alone in your school to listen to prog-rock and wanting to "convert" your friends.

Being such an elitist that you have to suggest every single band you enjoy listening to for PA so that everything that you enjoy is officially classified as Prog.
