CemeteryAngel
Hello Everybody. I am new on here and I would like to introduce myself, so,
I'll start small. I am CemeteryAngel. I am an 18 year old female from Sevierville, TN.
I am 5'0, 106 lbs. I was born in Berlin, Germany, then later moved to Great Falls, MT, then to Tennessee. Tennessee is my hellhole. I hate it here, so I try to find lots of activities to keep me busy and keep me from dwelling on how much I hate Tennessee.
People of history that I admire:
Communist/socialist Karl Marx
My favorite songs:
Speed Of Pain- Marilyn Manson
Wings Of A Butterfly- H.I.M.
StarFuckers- NIN
Hallowed Be Thy Name- Cradle Of Filth
Vortex- Megadeth
My favorite quote:
"The production of many useful things results in many useless people."
- Karl Marx
I'm anti-government and I'm pro-life. Any questions?
Here is a little poem I wrote and would like to share.
"Hate me because I look different,
So I hate you because you are all the same,
And who are you to judge 'me',
And tell me my style is lame?
Have you taken a look at yourself lately,
Have you realised your selfishness and greed,
You think you are better because of your clothes,
We all bleed the same blood you bleed..
So what really makes you better,
Compare yourself to me,
And when we look into the mirror,
It doesn't matter whats on the outside that we see.."
I wrote that when I was 13 years old and ridiculed by preppy bitches.
i just ignored them until they put their hands on me, then I went off.
I write alot of poetry, mostly really dark stuff, so I'll be posting some on here when you all get to know me better.

Sincerely I don't like the poem. And we disagree much in musical taste, apparently.
I don't understand how can one be anti-government and admires someone that didn't like the government, but only because he wanted another kind of government.
Other than that there's still not much I know about you, so I can't say I don't like you or I do.

I don't like him much. He was very naive in his view of people. And I hate ideologies.
But I am not here to tell people whom to admire and whom not to since good and bad are relative.

I absolutely love this song. This and also "No time to cry" and "Three autumns and a widow". I actualy greatly admire Cradle of Filth, but those are the best.
For some reason I became all excited when I saw that someone wrote that song name as one of their favorites......strange. Okay, I'll calm down now.
So anyways, welcome and we will see what kind of creature you are.

Well, Godslayer Jillian, what kind of music do you like? Maybe you could introduce me to names of bands I've never heard of, and I could listen to some of their music and pick out what I like out of it. It never hurts to try something new, right?
I know you all were probably a bit surprised when you read my post.
I know I'm way different than any of you as far as thought and likes/dislikes. I'm just unique and I'll never change for anyone. I don't care if I'm accepted or not, thats why I don't fit in anywhere else.
I came hear thinking maybe I'd fit in better, but I guess I'm just destined to not fit in. I've always been the oddball nomatter where I am. So, if I'm the oddball here too, it won't bother me.
Also, Don't Look Behind You, I like 'Her Ghost In The Fog',
by Cradle Of Filth

If you go around waving your "uniquness" and "oddball"-ness around like a banner then you really will not fit in anywhere.
An identity that consists only of "I am different" is a very sad identity in my oppinion.

You admire a communist, but yet you claim to be anti-government?
And to set it all off, you're Pro Life? From my studies of communism, they're anything but "Pro Life." You need to know more about the ideas that you claim to follow.
I'm not going to judge you based off your musical tastes, to each their own. As for the poem, well, it's like hundreds of others that I've read. Too blunt to gain my favor.
I like poetry, while reading it, that requires excessive thought. We have a few of those poets that lurk around here.
Good poetry can mean anything you interpret it to be, that's what makes it enjoyable.

Just don't cry me a river. I said I don't agree with you, not I don't like you. It's too soon and you sound reasonable for me not to like you.
Anyways, in music I just prefer gothic clichés like Siouxsie, The Cure, and Bauhaus. I don't particularly like loud music except for some exceptional songs.

Hmmm...
Your avatar is adorable.
I like the Marx quote, but I'm not really into Marx...
Well, you obviously read if you have an inkling of who Karl Marx is... what kind of books? Who are some of your favorite authors?

Good for you, sweetie... But be careful what you assume. We are a remarkably diverse group of people. Most of us are "way different" from one another as far as general philosophies and opinions.
Basically, don't judge us and we won't judge you.

welcome.
megadeth are a spoof of maiden...in a really weird way. but i like them. i also enjoy COF, mainly because its fun to play. Manson is a touchy topic here...so its best to tread lightly!
i'd have to agree that you seem quite emo...and i cant stomach that, at the moment...
on to my next point: there are questions in a sticky on the index page of this topic...use them as guidelines. answering them gives people a bit of information about yourself, and sometimes reminds you of things that you would've forgotten to say.
i cant say i dont like you...so dont take offense.
and my opinion isnt really that important, anyway.

Actually, I think she gave a wonderfully complete intro without the questions... I guess I thought they were just sort of guidelines so that there weren't a ton of people who said, "Hey, my name's so-and-so, I'm 17, and I live in such-and-such. If you want to know more, ask."
If the questions are requirements, I guess I wasn't aware of that and I've just put my foot in my mouth.

i just think that if everyone uses the questions then better questions can be asked...and it becomes far more constructive...
just an opinion
