the 'people' who rule us figured out that by making our wares 'popular' they can degrade and/or destroy us. there are plenty of kids out there who have no idea what goth is or it's history.. i met a 19yr old the other day who told me he was a goth, he was wearing some clothes he claimed were goth (*shakes head*) and after some idiotic chit-chat he proceeded to educate me about what goth music he likes "uhh yeah i like my dad's aerosmith records and hollywood undead and limp bizkit, yeah bra theyz all pretty cool goth bands" then he asked me what i was so i decided to educate him.. i had some pictures and books and music and films and a wardrobe of clothes with which to educate him so it all went pretty well, then i tied him up and took some photos and then ####ed him in the ass for an hour because he was also the rent boy i had bought that particular night. i hate.. --Previous Message-- : Howdy Everyone, : : Before I get to my question, let me provide : some background info on myself. : : I don't really think of myself as goth, more : like a darkwaver ... but it's only a term. : In some cases I'm stereotypical in my goth : lifestyle and outlook - Love The : Cruxshadows, black, am pagan (many many : years), love me some SaladFingers, etc.... : In others, I'm not - can't stand cats, don't : really go to goth clubs, etc... : : By all accounts, I'm a geriatric goth : (eldergoth) ..
