I may have been misled!!!
 
I thought the whole concept of gothiness was to get tortured and die a horrible death like being burned or something

You've got a lot to learn...

Even doing a standard Wiki search would help you...>.>

Here let me enlighten you..

Music

Basics...I suppose.

Vincent Van Goth 02-11-2008 10:42 AM

I dont want my head patted, I want to be a goth and get tortured and die

A few links that may assist you, good sir:

http://www.scathe.demon.co.uk/fastgoth.htm

http://www.goth.net/goth.html

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goth_subculture

Along with these, I suggest the book What is Goth? by Voltaire. I personally found the book the most excellent resource.

To add to this, goth is NOT:

-- People who cut themselves or think about suicide all the time.

-- People who are chronically depressed.

-- Satan worshippers or involved in Wicca. [There are some, but they are a vast minority.]

-- Lovers of Marylin Manson. [Manson has his own subculture, and it really has very little to do with Goth proper.]

-- Lovers of Linkin Park, or other pop-rap bands.

IMO, this site was much more useful to me for information than this one, imho.

No. No. I think this is a troll.

Oh, we can torture you if you really want, but you don't have to be goth to be a suicidal masochist, dearie. ;)

Miss Cogs: I fear that you are right, but just in case, I feel it necessary to at least -try- and educate. Fatal flaw in me, I suppose.

tickingstitch 02-11-2008 10:47 AM

Yup. Im just going to pat his head.

Vincent Van Goth 02-11-2008 10:48 AM

eeeeeeeeeeeeek has anyone ever told you that you're punk. I was punky but I didn't want to die then

Maybe I should just put myself in a coma

No, I think you should allow me to do that for you, m'dear.

I promise this will hurt you more than it hurts me. *evil grin*

Please don't educate the troll

Heh. Well, at least someone's gotta do it. xD

Dearie, your text is terribly difficult to read in that color; might I suggest a brighter color for it?

Second, I didn't say that there were NO Wiccan Goths, only that it is not the major religion. There -are- some, but I believe most are prone to be atheist or agnostic.

Or Catholic. XD [Kidding.]

I think she just meant that not all goths practice Wicca as it is a common mishap for people people to believe that.

Christ, Tam, would you stop linking to every bit of informational splurge about Goth that's ever been posted on the Internet? It's painfully evident that Vincent and his incestuous lovemates don't give a damn.

Firstly, I think they are all the same person, but that's just my theory.

Secondly, at least I can say I tried.

Thirdly, I have them on ignore so I don't have to watch their incessant rambling any more.

But, nothing can be done about the links I've already posted, now can we?

Tha Duckman 02-11-2008 05:19 PM

They're all different people.

StoneCold 02-12-2008 04:31 AM

They (we) are, indeed all different people.

And I think you'll find that their (our) 'incessant rambling' is a fuck sight more amusing and entertaining than the boring, inane, self satisfied crud which seems to be the norm here.

And 'incestuous lovemates'? Ha. Why would that be of any interest to you?

I concur.....

No, no. Being goth is about whining, complaining and slitting your wrists every other Tuesday.
