I <3 Being Black
For those who are unfamiliar, the title's a parody of the pretentious facebook group, geared towards black people. I can make that joke, because I'm black.
At any rate, I joined mostly because google led me to a post about jazz. That's my thing. I'm a jazz guy, trying to revive it with a darker sound. Somewhere between Brad Mehldau's covers of Radiohead and Yasushi Ishii's songs Logs Naki World and Alucard's Theme, with a dash of Oogie Boogie (to add a little spice).
My style tries to mix the more conventional cargo bondage pants with classier shirts. I'm more of the conservative goth. I'm more likely to wear a black suit than fishnet shirts, and tight pants aren't my thing. The only "tie" I wear is an actual noose, though. I detest ties, and that's how I perceive them.
Other than that, I'm your typical Edgar Allen Poe fan, who enjoys characters criminally insane, or borderline psychotic, or dead. One of my favorite artists is Luis Royo, and I like walking around at night in all black. Yes, I like anime, yes I play RPGs, yes I had a crush on Wednesday Addams, no I don't like Twilight, and yes, I will hurt you for even thinking the word "emo" around me.
Oh, I guess you might also be interested in the fact that I am a huge rock and metal fan.

I honestly feel like I should find a new message board to waste my time on.

Nah, it goes beyond and below it. We know exactly what 'goth' is so we do not take it seriously at all.
We're just very misanthropic. Like you; you oscillate between being alright and being bad.
Jazz? Brad Mehldau? Awesome!
Cargo pants what? Anime what?

Ahh. That makes sense, then.
I see by your sig that vindicated's a racist, so now I know to ignore anything s/he posts.
I didn't know what they were called until I looked them up. They're the baggy pants with lots of pockets. It's a wierd name, and I'm sure there's some popular label that makes them, but since I don't shop very often, I don't know it. Anime is cartoons for people that don't want to watch 3D dogs dancing for half an hour. Like anything else, it's got good stuff and terrible stuff that ends up on Saturday morning cartoons.
I'm fucking chatty today...

She's not particularly racist anymore. I'm just too lazy to change my signature and every now and then I like that we're reminded of those commentaries.

I could reread this thread over and over.
As an added note, I joined the I <3 Being Black group on Facebook ages ago.

Hellsing, Baccano, Cowboy Bebop, FLCL, all of Miyazaki's movies, except Howl's Moving Castle, Berserk, Cat Soup, Perfect Blue, Paprika, and Hajime no Ippo.
Pineapple, don't you love the thin facade of black unity covering the shameless merchandising? I posted a photo of me in my "goth gear". I don't think anyone got the pun.

I'm going after you, Mindless1. Like some wizard, I'm going to turn your existence into my own joke. I will entertain the tee total shit out of this forum by making you even funnier. It wont be hard. All you need is a little... push.
