I mostly gave up my Goth look a while ago. I may don the trenchcoat and a Bauhaus shirt with black jeans eventually, but for the most part I've moved on from that. It doesn't demean my goffickness, it just means that there's more to me than one part of a subculture. If you back yourself into a rut of the same things, life gets dull. Variety is the spice of life, and life should be vindaloo.

Me? I'm not the one that made a whole long paragraph saying nothing. You still didn't justify yourself.
This is you:
You - They're all a bunch of hedonists for looking at us weird.
Me - Dude! Do you even know what hedonism means?
You - Shut up! You're just jealous that I'm better than you!
By the way, why the fuck do you care if I call you a he or a she? What is so important about gender identification? Believe it or not, something as simple as that is a hint of the sexist undertones of our societal indoctrination. And that's not just throwing big words around saying nothing. This is something real and relevant.

I think you should get a new pair of glasses, or get a dictionary.
I said: XENOPHOBIA, Which has nothing to do with hedonism.
What is your fucking problem!???

Violent Beauty, it would behoove you to not get into an argument with Jillian. She will just pwnticate you. :-/
Actually, I take that back. Go ahead, continue flaming ol' Jill.

No, he's not a mook. He can use big words and know what they actually mean.

I didn't say that. I just said that he accidentally associated xenophobia with hedonism.

Idiot.
It's called reductio ad absurdum, except that I barely stretched it.
What I did is use your logic only with a different word so that you can see just how stupid what you said was. You obviously don't know what xenophobia is, so using that word will amount to nothing. I simply substituted xenophobia with a word I assumed you knew to point out how what you said made no sense.
Get it?

Oh, right, yeah, I'll agree with you there, in part. It's more he substituted xenophobia for hedonism. Maybe he got his words mixed up as he was typing.

Xenophobia is a fear or contempt of that which is foreign or unknown, especially of strangers or foreign people.[1] It comes from the Greek words ξένος (xenos), meaning "foreigner," "stranger," and φόβος (phobos), meaning "fear." The term is typically used to describe fear or dislike of foreigners or in general of people different from oneself.
I hope this will settle all Misunderstandings.

Technically, depending on context, Xenophobia was the right word to use. It's a fear of something foreign or unknown, not just people that are foreign, a certain way of being or acting or a subculture, so the word was applicable in this instant.
Not that ViOL3nT BEuaTy123's theorem holds any more weight now.
EDIT: Yeah, ViOL3nT BEuaTy123 beat me to it.

No it's not. It owes me five bucks, and always goes to the toilet when the cheque arrives at the restaurant.

Yes it does! Because if they don't eat, they try to eat each other, and it makes it really very difficult to sleep with "Now nom nom OW! Nom nom nom OW! Nom nom nom OW!" in yr ear all night.
