Personally the only widespread dislike that I have seen is that of preps (pretty much goes back to people deciding to become gawf because they don't fit in to normal society) and those who seem proud of their own ignorance.

Way to remain cool, avoid judgement and name calling.

(Maybe I'm not in the Goth culture, yet I've witinessed enough.)

Oh please you keep spouting crap as if you are the gothiest goth who ever lived and you clearly have no idea what you are talking about, most of the time you are just perpetuating stereotypes and you have been doing so for the past three years.

Duane · 05-11-2009, 08:51 PM

How long has Catch been here?

Saya · 05-11-2009, 09:22 PM

Too long.

Duane · 05-11-2009, 09:51 PM

Didn't Tekajo say something about her being around before he was here?

Saya · 05-11-2009, 09:52 PM

Yeah, she was here as Bex before, I think the actual name was bexxle, if thats the case she's been here since 2003.

Duane · 05-11-2009, 09:55 PM

6 years of wear and tear... sheesh.

Solumina · 05-12-2009, 12:56 AM

Well she was Bex and then after being banned for a while she came back as Catch, only it wasn't so much that she came back as she started over since she forgot that she had ever had an account here, everyone found out when she posted a picture of herself.

I know who the Angels are but who are the Twins?

It's rare to find female knuckle draggers, but you take the cake, toots.

It's better being, as you put it, a "knuckle dragger" than someone who picks pointless fights with people on internet forums.

Starting arguments on internet forums is like racing in the special olympics; even if you win, you're still retarded.

...and bragging about acts of violence online is lame beyond any creative or humorous analogy anyone can conceive and is based on 2 false assumptions:

#1: We share your admiration of violence and therefore respect you more when you brag about violent acts.
#2: We believe you actually committed these acts.

Both of these are false assumptions.

However, I agree with you that it's fucking stupid. We had something similar in Mexico with everyone ganging up on emos to the point where there were days they would go to malls and beat the shit out of people with bangs.
People are idiots.

I agree with you, Jillian.
In Denmark, you get bullied severely if you are goth/emo/alternative/different and often beat up, too. People usually yell at me only, as I appearently look too tough for them to dare say it to my face :P
And as anyone who knows me would say, I'm not dangerous.
They even call me a big teddy, however I might feel about that :P

...and that pathetic attempt at wit was inspired by 3 false assumptions:
#1: That I admire violence.
#2: That your contradicting me (about something I obviously know more about than you, since I SAID IT) is going to make me feel bad about myself/make you seem smarter than me/affect me in any way, other than amuse me with your ignorance.
#3: That everyone else in the world agrees with you.

All of these are false assumptions.
And un-justified generalizations.

The Fight: What does it mean and where does it come from? An Essay: Homosapien. A man. He is alone in the universe. A punker. Still a man. He is alone in the universe, but he connects. How? They hit each other. No clearer way to evaluate whether or not you're alive. Now. Complications. A reason to fight. Somebody different. Difference creates dispute. Dispute is a reason to fight. Now, to fight is a reason to feel pain. Life is pain. So to fight with reason is to be alive with reason. Final analysis: To fight, a reason to live. Problems and Contradictions: I am an anarchist. I believe that there should be no rules, only chaos. Fighting appears to be chaos. And when we slam in the pit a show it is. But when we fight for a reason, like rednecks, there's a system, we fight for what we stand for, chaos. Fighting is a structure, fighting is to establish power, power is government and government is not anarchy. Government is war and war is fighting. The circle goes like this: our redneck skirmishes are cheap perversions of conventional warfare. War implies extreme government because wars are fought to enforce rules or ideals, even freedom. But other people ideals forced on someone else, even if it is something like freedom, is still a rule; not anarchy. This contradiction was becoming clear to me in the fall of '85. Even as early as my first party, "Why did I love to fight?" I framed it, but still, I don't understand it. It goes against my beliefs as a true anarchist. But there it was. Competition, fighting, capitalism, government, THE SYSTEM. That's what we did. It's what we always did. Rednecks kicked the shit out of punks, punks kicked the shit out of mods, mods kicked the shit out of skinheads, skinheads took out the heavy metal guys, and the heavy metal guys beat the living shit out of new wavers and the new wavers did nothing. What was the point? Final summation? None.

You are a terrible arguer. None of that makes sense; you were just hoping anything you said might stick.

So why are you competing?

the-nihilist · 05-12-2009, 03:38 PM

Because it makes you feel like a cowboy! Yeeeehaaaaw!

Porcelain · 05-12-2009, 05:29 PM

Lol.
you're all fatalist losers. Grow the fuck up.

Godslayer Jillian · 05-12-2009, 05:45 PM

Do you know what fatalist means?

And you're an insufferable dumb beeyitch!

In the immortal words of one of my favorite members, I can never get enough of this, "HO SIT DOWN!"

Godslayer Jillian · 05-12-2009, 08:00 PM

No, seriously, does she fucking know what 'fatalist' means?

KontanKarite · 05-12-2009, 08:04 PM

Of course she doesn't. She's a damned fool, Jillian.

She's trifflin'.

Porcelain · 05-13-2009, 12:32 AM

Why would I say it if I didn't know the meaning of it?
Unlike lame gothic noobs, I don't just say big words to sound smarter.
I know I'm intelligent, so I don't have to prove it to ignoramuses.

Sir Canvas Corpsey · 05-13-2009, 12:59 AM

Just leave while you're behind, the longer you stay, the stupider you look.

Then why are we "fatalist losers"?

I mean, I have done nothing to seem as if I'm 'fatalist'

You, on the other hand, repeated the lame cliché of 'internet=special Olympics' which implies that nothing matters in the end.
Isn't that the perfect example of 'fatalistic' attitude?
