Wearing Black Does Make You Goth...

...I'm sorry but this has to be said.

There are a lot of fat, ugly, boring fucktards who think that, because they are too frigid to wear black clothes everyday and adorn themselves with cool hair that they can be considered "Goth" with those who do...

I'm sorry, but you're not goth and never will be.

Seriously... Goth is more than fashion (I'll agree with that)... but if it is a lifestyle and a world view, surely an individual would wear something to reflect this.

So-called individuals who are too timid to reflect themselves via their appearance are so utterly worthless at parties; so utterly introverted that they are not worth anyones time or effort. For as start, these so-called "goth without the clothes" individuals will NEVER be seen in clubs... nor at organised goth weekends... it's as though they only exist on the internet.

So they must be closet goths... not to be taken seriously in the slightest.

On the whole the only people who put forward this stupid argument always exist exclusively on the internet. And they are almost always certainly fat, ugly and boring fuctkards. It's as if the goth movement gives these worthless cretins some hope of joining a subculture that will not "judge" them.

You think Goths don't judge? HA - Goths are the bitchiest, most judgemental pricks on the face of the earth.

Since when did Goth become a subculture for fat, ugly boring fucktards?

I resent that. I'm not fat.

I don't think its a world view or lifestyle either. Its just a fanclub for goth music.

No, I'm just aware that dark thinking, wearing black and being woeful doesn't make one goth if you aren't a fan of goth music. Its like saying you're punk when you don't listen to punk music. The music is first, everything else is trimming.

The fact that you felt the urge to respod, regardless of how idiotic you found the thread.

The fact remains - Goth is more than just a musical lifestyle. It transcends beyond musical boundries (and judging from most of your musical tastes, are quite ungoth).

Don't even try and counter this - I was wearing black before any of you, and before it was goth.

I was never a Fugazi fan, sir, and I'll have you know I am not mentally disabled. I don't know exactly what a stick of fuck looks like but I somehow don't think I'm that either.

You think calling me Sir will give you the air of the pretentious victorian oh-so-goth flare you aspire to express in your sordid little response?

And don't try and be clever with my posts; you're a semi literate who hasn't even finished school yet.

Case dismissed.

So were priests. They wore black way before any of us, so they must've been so goth that they... administered the host? Wait... what?

I'm not sure how I feel about the idea that the person who allows 'goth' to describe only his or her taste in music is more the unthinking philistine than the person who grounds his or her lifestyle and worldview in wearing black and being mopey.

I graduated high school years ago if thats what you're implying, although granted I'm not finished my degree yet. And you have "sir" in your name, so I don't think it was out of place.

And you are the pretentious one who thinks wearing black somehow makes you special, especially since you've been doing it before it was goth, yet somehow wearing black makes you goth, so you were always goth, even before goth came?

Oh here he goes Ladies and Gentlemen; off to fight the "good fight"... to defend his internet integrity for the amusement of like-minded morons who might actually take into consideration the sordid and overtly stupid comparisons he may muster.

You thought about this subect for a whole five minutes and think you've come to some interesting conclusions?

I don't give a toss for your internet assembled philosophies on the subject.

Then why make a post assaulting what you think to be an affront to your "goth" sensibilities?

What is this trashy excuse of an argument? Are you seriously trying to turn the argument aroud in the vian hope you will "catch me out", turning the subject around to an issue you are well versed in?

I stand before you with 4,000 years of academic history behind me to back up my arguments... and frankly I don't think you've lived a life worthy of my attention.

Actually, I was hoping for an honest answer to my question.
