Talking Goth Olympics

Okay. If we had goth olympics:

1) The rings would have to be black.
2) The games would be held on Halloween, of course.
3) The events would have exotic titles like: 500 meter cemetery dash, and for emos the 250 yard emotional breakdown.
4) Iif I ever get off Kontan's ignore list, he could help compose the anthem.

Okay, so help me out here.

Sir CC. We won't go there. Let's just say I opened up a can of worms, unintentionally, of course, and if I'm not being ignored, at least I'm being pouted at -- which, being a great-aunt, etc., I'm actually quite used to.

However, that is not the purpose of this post. Kontan, et al, I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings, but I still stick to my convictions. At the least, respect me for that and we can agree to disagree.

That being said, yes you can help with the anthem, and I don't see why goths should not have our own olympics. So, what would we do there?

Goths do have their own Olympics. It's who can make more drama at the club, who can dance the most odd and keep it acceptable, who can take off the most clothes without showing nipple or vagina, and who can insult more "friends" in four hours.

Hey, you forgot "who can smoke the most cloves in a row without choking" and "who can drink the most absinthe before passing out or seeing flying elephants"... lol.

I think you may well be on to something here. The most conceited, back-biting, and fashion-savvy members of the world's many goth scenes convene at a club previously agreed upon, and a panel of judges evaluates each competitor's performance throughout the night.
Someone get in touch with LadyLucretia, she could be our Michael Phelps.

I'm sorry, Kontan. I thought I was on your ignore list. If not, then, in the immortal words of Paul Simon, paraprasing 'Cecelia': "Jubilaaation, [he] love me again, I fall on the floor and I laughing"... Okay maybe that's going overboard. So, just ignore me.

You also need to include the, "Who can think of the most obscure deathrock band", category.

Change the shot put objective from distance thrown to who can hit the human target with points being determined by how likely it is to kill the person.
Change the javelin objective to how many bodies can the javelin penetrate with bonus points for each body the javelin goes all the way through.
Keep fencing as is though change the outfits, and give them real swords.
bring back dueling
hmm how else could we make it deadlier?

Renatus, we could put folks in a round room, issue them Ak-47's and then tell them to go play in the corner.

And yes, Duane, you can help compose the anthem. But, Kontan has first dibs.

Maybe it would be more for a metal head olympics, in which one would say "Its a man's sport, with a bullet called life", and everyone would discuss SOADs merits during commentary.
