Is this site crawling in emos like vampirefreaks?
Hey. I joined this site to learn about goths and not be ignorant towards your subculture. I love subculture, mainly cause subculture is awesome but also cause pop culture sucks dick.
I'm kinda in to gothic like music, but its cooler.
P.S.I also have an important question, Is this site crawling in emos like vampirefreaks? that website was painful to use.

Run, while you can mate.
You just wrote some thoughtless comments there.
I'd reccomend re-reading what you just wrote and try to either answer it yourself or re-write it in a more... cultured way.
It doesn't say much about your wisdom or intelligence to write a comment like "pop culture sucks dick".
If you're into Gothic music, fantastic. Share, compare and discuss.

No, but if you haven't read a book in a while, this place will be painful to use.

I think it's right. I want to learn about goths so i came here. Pop culture is filled with obnoxious morons in love with talentless rap. Books are good.

Smashing, what are some of your favourite Authors? Gimme something provocative to read. I'm in need of a good read.
Despite the amount of bland music that is quite common in the pop-culture, I don't automatically slam rap. There are some thought-provoking artists out there whose work is a damn sight more creative or powerful than some so-called 'goth' music.
You wanna learn something about Goths?

A sub-culture based mainly around music. We are not suicidal, we are not depressed. We just don't like you.
2. Am I Goth?
If you seriously have to ask this question, then no. Do a little research into the music, the fashion, the scene. If it clicks, then you might be onto something.
3. Why do goths wear black?
It's the color of our souls, dearie. Or something. We just like black, okay?
4. Are you into kinky stuff?
What would compell you to ask a question like that to someone you don't know? Not all of us are into bondage or S&M.
And, NO, just because we wear chokers, it does not mean we like to be choked! Keep your sickness to yourself, perv.
5. Hallowe'en's over/not until October!
Not, exactly a question, but we don't care. Hallowe'en is everyday. Re:Ministry ~ Everyday is Hallowe'en
6. Do you do a lot of drugs?
Well, I can only speak for myself, but no. And I haven't met a helluva lot of people in the scene that are addicts. We go out, we party, we wake up to the consequences just like everybody else. Unless you don't sleep, in which case you're lying, poseur.
7. Are you a freak?
No, a freak is someone who is okay with being a corporate drone, getting paid less than they're worth and has no idea what the hell is going on with te rest of the world.
8. Who is Siouxsie/Peter Murphy/Andrew Eldritch/etc?
Good Gods! If you consider yourself part of the sub-culture and don't know who these people are, thou art a POSEUR!
If you haven't done your research, we're not going to let you cheat off of our paper! There are things like google, limewire and wikipedia for a reason. USE THEM!
9. Are you snobs?
No, we simply refuse to associate(or be kind to) idiots. This is not to be confused with mentally disabled people. We all know(or have known), and love, at least one mentally challenged person. And no, your 'retard' jokes are not funny, you are an idiot.
10. Am I in, yet?
You don't 'get in', you get educated! If you know what you're talking about and can carry on a decent conversation, you don't need to ask this question.
11. Has anyone ever told you that you look just like that chick from NCIS?
Fuck You
12. Do you worship the devil?
Only on Mondays. The rest of the week's mine!
13. How do you hide money from a Hippy?
Put in under the soap!

Need any more help? This is probably one of the more conclusive webpages I have found that might answer your question.
http://global/gothic.com/boards/view...?t=222&start=0
remove the slash between global and gothic and that link will be correct.

Well i'm not sure what your into but Matthew Reliey does great adventure stories. Clive Cussler also writes good adventure stroies about 'Dirk Pitt' [fictional character]. One of my fav is Jeff Lindsay who writes dexter the lovable serial killer. My favoutie writer is frank miller who did the Sin City comics.

You sure? I think I read something about being disrespectful to other users being grounds for having your account frozen. Besides, he doesn't seem stupid. Just curious about us goths. We are pretty interesting.

lol. Not all goths are.
Bannings don't come about simply by being rude to others, this place would be very empty.
Side note: Sanguine, Tim Danzig just might be this guy's real name. Why you gonna fault him?

Wow. Ok, bud, if you want to know what Goth is all about, refer to my sig.
Pop culture doesn't 'suck' completely; there are a -few- decent artists out there. [I've been known to appreciate a Britney Spears song now and again.] As for rap, yeah a lot of it sucks, but I generally enjoy the stuff endorsed by Adult Swim; it seems slightly more intelligent than most rap. ^__^

Don't forget the old school rap/hip-hop from the 80's and early 70's.

@Mr. Filth,@tekajo,@Albert Mond, @HumanePain: no to most cause i don't know where to find them.
@Sanguine Heart: Ok Danzig ain't my last name and i'm shocked and amazed at the fact people know would Glenn Danzig is. Also just because you are floating on your cloud of self-righteous projecting an Aura of grace, Tact, and intelligence doesn't mean you act like you got a stick up ur ass when somebody say something you disagree with.
@Everyone else: thanks for the welcome.
