Shopping!
There aren't many good stores near my house that have goth-ish merchandise and my DIY skills suck so if anyone has tips/shopping advice/etc. that would be lovely!

Mmm....ow...a classic post...
Have you heard about HotTopic?, well, I DONT recomend it. And don´t pay attention to what your friends say. HotTopic is getting emo, retarded, and it´s r-e-a-l-l-y expensive. You can find better things at a local thrift store, for real.
Go to big malls, or warehouses. Sears, Marshalls, whatever. There are plenty of good goth clothing, but you need to be aware and be really selective. But once you get used to it, you´ll love it. And you´ll be more original than those quamtun goths who have all their momy´s money, and buy a bunch of clothing from "oh so goth" stores...they end up looking more like poseurs...
However, that´s just my opinion, and it has work for me since ever. =). It´s up to you.

It's kind of like the Diet Coke of Goth. Just one calorie, not enough.

Often a larval stage for indie kids trying to make the transition to gothic butterflyhood so unless they get in your way it's decidedly unkind to rip their heads off.

Yes, call him a piece of shit because it's obvious that he wrote the goth handbook.
How about you being a piece of shit for the futile attempt at screaming? Or the lack of sense in posts? Or the hollowness in the same?

Mmm...let´s make a whole post about animal crackers please xD...i remember I liked the monkey the best....o,o...
Well, Quantum goth it´s just another calification for babygoths...(?). Just teenagers guys that are new in the culture and stuff...so they try to impress no matter what, with all that black new cothing...
Jeans are the most fucking comfy thing in life. Specially the old ones...so soft...I wear then too. And that doesn´t makes me feel less goth.

This is stupid. Everyone wairs jeans. That IS NOT what the guide was trying to say. This is hopefully the only time I'll have to say it, but you're all being morons.
I've been here long enough to be a bitch 
:P
Thanks for the definition by the way 
Anyone wanna link me to the guide?

It's true that you can get good things at regular stores, I just got these 2 really cheap corsets on sale at our regular mall.

You didnt realize that? I did, and I thought you were doing that on purpose...
but yeah..
I wear jeans most of the time. :O
if I didnt have any, I'd only wear like 2 pants in total. Wooo! Then eventually they'll start to tear and I'll be left with pants that you can see my undies and knees in! :O

Well I can!
There's no better place to say it than in the form of an inadvertent brag!
And I'm rapidly losing weight, so I can't buy that many pairs of pants at a time. :P

Again, talk to YO MAMMA, the appearance freak.
Maybe she could make healthier meals.
Or smaller portions.
Or let you stay after school to use the fitness center.
And I'm doing it because puberty is fun.

While I'm glad that the poo is finally at peace, your reaction was just a little bit ridiculous. Why would you get so offended?
