Found this when googleing something in art. Lol. why do people write stuff like this? I didn't think it was possible for people to have less of a life than I do but this proved me wrong.

So then the 80's = glitter goth? If so they missed pumps worn with lacey bobby socks.

That describes my college roommate back then. And has anyone told Madonna?!

I read some of the other goth-related articles. They are not 100% off, but still somewhat stereotypical. I do not like the "glitter goth", its too girly for my taste.

Those wikihow things are hilarous! That sounds more like a guide on how to look retro and cheesy than glitter goth...

The people writing in WikiHow are often the ones who are most in need of help.

Reading the steps on "How to start a trench coat club" reminded me of Rachel Ray describing how to make a Cobb Salad.

From the article on how to be Goth (link at the bottom):

"Seriously work on expanding your mind... Read (This is optional though)."

My sides hurt
