Do you know what happens when you leave a fish too long in an elevator?!
Here's a clue: fish is biodegradable...
1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
I'm currently in art school, so I spend much of my time drawing, painting and being preoccupied about how broke I'm going to be once I graduate (and how broke I am now)
2. Where are you from?
Originally from San Francisco, currently located in fabulous, frigid Pittsburgh
3. Who is your favorite author?
I'm not really sure; I don't read that much fiction. Maybe Dostoyevsky, though I've haven't really read that many of his books, to be honest
4. What are your favorite films?
My favorite since I was about 8 has always been Labyrinth. It's pretty cheesetastic, but it was my first introduction to David Bowie, so I continue to have a soft spot for it.
5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
"Into My Arms" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
6. At your funeral?
"Hope There's Someone" by Anthony and the Johnsons
7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
In bed, in the arms of someone nice...
8. What kind of casket would you want?
One of those colorful Ghanaian coffins that are carved to look like a favorite object from the deceased's life. I guess I would get one shaped like an ipod or paintbrush, or maybe a cup of coffee.
9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
Black v-neck dress, red stockings, charm necklace and faux-leopard coat
10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
Not having to worry about money, or about whether or not I'm making a good impression
11. What's your favorite band?
I could never pick one. Some favorites include The Birthday Party, Bauhaus/Tones on Tail, Einsturzende Neubauten, Adam and the Ants, Sex Gang Children, T. Rex, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Joy Division, The Velvet Underground, Ausgang, and Richard Hell and the Voidoids. Oh, and David Bowie, of course, but he's just one person.
12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
Currently in college, majoring in visual art and anthropology
13. Why did you join?
I found this site a while ago, and I keep finding myself looking on the forums, so I figure it couldn't hurt to just give in and join
14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
Female (I wish more guys would wear dresses and/or leopard coats)

I adore you and wish to kidnap you, in a purely platonic way :P
Welcome to the boards, this is one of the most interesting intros in a while. Damn near everything about it interests and/or entertains me.

This has become the question I'm most interested in.
I've found a correlation between the answer to this question and how nice a person is.
Most cool people answer something like this; something in the range of "why not?"
Meanwhile the annoying ones that get their information on goth from MTV and myspace quizzes and want to become a part of our "millennial culture" and shit answer something like "I wanted to meet people that are like me"

lol, I actually read the dress and coat thing and thought: "Oh, it's a girl. No, no wait, it could be a guy...nope, it's a girl. Ah well, you never know."

Surely you like T. Rex? Your username states it... that would make two people on the entire board.
