It's what the ceiling cat becomes when it falls through the hole. Isn't it obvious?

A state of mind in which you enter a perpetual nightmare, only to realise that instead of being terriried, you see things more clearly.

"Gothic" is a sub-culture based around music and fashion.

I always thought of it as appreciating the inherent 'beauty' for lack of a better word, of things that aren't always necessarily 'beautiful'.

Sure music and fashion can be a part of it. But once you turn off the iPod and get naked, is it still possible to be a goth? Or does it only exist while you're in uniform?

It exists when you're not in uniform because it's a set of musical and aesthetic choices. When you turn off the iPox* and get naked, you still like the music and you still like the clothes.

Well I am glad one doesn't become terriered because I would rather be chihuahua'd:

*shudder* I hate those things. I would rather be "terriried" than chihuahuaed >.<. They make me feel ill.

Well, LaBelleDame, I suppose either beats being 'pugged', especially if the little beggars steal your wallet.

O.O Holy shit. That's a very... enthusiastic... dog.

It actually reminds me of a sheltie that used to be on my paper route. It would sit there on the porch, alert and watching you, as you were approaching the driveway and bark a bit, as one might expect any dog to do.
As soon as you got in range of its leash, it would leap at you and try to tear off your kneecaps, snarling all the while like some demon from the Ninth Circle of Hell.
