I want to be a Goth

[Big Papa Goat]

I wish I was a Goth so I'd be cool. I'd like to become one, but I don't want to spend money on all those expensive Hot Topic clothes. Also, I don't know of any Hot Topic locations near my abode. Can anyone help me? I'm adrift in a sea of pain, alone.... :goth...
:tear :(

[Cap'n Crunch]

You can make a kilt out of flannel jackets. :lol

[Dixie]

to be goth you must be gay first off. secondly you must renounce all you hold dear in pledge of eternal misery and total wimpdom. secondly you simply MUST at all times act like you're about to kill yourself (but don't do it). and you can always order hot topic crap online if you're that hard up.

[The Retro Kat]

HEY ASSHOLE, KILTS ARE NOT FOR GOTHS, KILTS DO NOT DEFINE A GOTH!

You haven't been to my school lately. All of the goths wear kilts and wierd fucking french hats.

I'm already totally wimpdom-ified and wallowing in eternal wisdom. I guess I'm gonna have to work on the gay part though.... *Looks at the dildo he just bought, and shudders* Its gonna be hard. Pun intended. As for acting like killing myself, I've already started. I've also taken to kilts and berets! Its a great look for me. :)

KILTS ARE NOT GOTHIC!

Well your clothes don't have to be from hot topic. http://drs.yahoo.com/S=96062883/K=cradle+of+filth/v=2/l=IVI/*-[img/] . And just because you drees like a gothic it doesnt make you a gothic you have to have a certain personality to be a gothic, and it doesn't actually count unless thats how you really act. If you care about what other people think than don't become gothic because when i go places people always say things like"It's not holloween yet". A good example of a gothic is Marilyn Manson you have to be a freak too. Like carving pintagrams on your body, stapping your self, self mutilatoin like that. When you become gothic people will call you a poser if you don't worship the devil, councilers wiil bug you, most people you hung out with before will stop being your friend, and people will have big conversatoins about you every time you walk by because of the way you look. It's great fun.

And that girl is not such a good example for a goth because they still look like a normal person, most people wouldn't talk about them that much.

[Big Papa Goat]

Marilyn :love Will you be my Goth Mentor?

[Marilyn]

Are you being sarcastic?

[Big Papa Goat]

To be honest... only partially.

[Marilyn]

So you are being sarcastic....

[Big Papa Goat]

Partially.

There is no way this cannot be a joke. Goths are required to be masochistic and use cliched imagery, goths who don't worship the devil (which devil is that, anyway?) are posers, and people have big conversations about goths every time they walk by? Personally, I just laugh and think "what an idiot" whenever a goth walks by, there's no way I would stop whatever I was doing at the time and start talking about the idiot goth.

EDIT: Name-Chamera
Age:13
Who do you hate most on the board?:My self

If he/she/it isn't someone's character, I was wrong about the above post being a joke...it's just painfully retarded instead.

Oh, and you spelled camera wrong. :rolleyes

[Big Papa Goat]

Why do you hate our people Perndog? What did we ever do to you? I'm going to masturbate to gory horror movies for a few hours now. It may not be goth, but its something that I enjoy doing when my life is taking a turn for the worse. As it usually does since I am, you know, adrift, in a sea of... uh lonliness and sorrow, ya, thats it. :tear :goth :wank

EDIT: I hope Marilyn returns to guide me on my journey to the end of night.


I made myself :) with that reference. Prize to anyone who can guess what it was!

[Marilyn]

That's because my name isn't camera, It's chamera(sounded out as Sha-mear-a). I really don't get what qouting me frrom that other post had to do with anything. And if you arn't gothic who are you to say what makes you a poser and what doesn't? And they don't talk about the fact that I'm gothic they talk about the way my make up looks. And it's mostly just the people who I considered my friends. besides I just became gothic in like jun or July, so i havn't became a satanist yet.

[Perndog]

:lol :lol :lol :lol The little "goth" is being serious! This makes my day.

I apologize, I don't know anything about the gothic world, having lived around goths for seven more years than you've existed and having been one myself as a teenager. I bow to your superior knowledge as arbiter of that which is goth. Oh woe, if only they hadn't cast me out for failing to perform the ritual act of hanging by my testicles in service to the Dark Lord! If only I had more ardently slashed my forearms with a razor blade in the bathroom and filled my school notebooks with more hellish inscriptions, I would now still be a member of that unholy alliance! :goth

Oh and...This is Satanism (http://www.personalsatan.com/lttd/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Number=166290&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1), not to be confused with devil worship. Very few goths are satanists, and even fewer over the age of 15 are devil worshipers. At least I think so - I really don't know anything about goths, remember.

[Marilyn]

well not all gothics are all the same. you don't make any sence. I never said any one filled their school paper with satanic things, I don't even have school papers. And i just said that the people I once considered as friends say I'm a poser since I'm not a Satanist. And i'm not little. Besides you were never goth when it was the Golden Age of Grotesque.

[Perndog]

The Golden Age of Grotesque? Meaning the Marilyn Manson album that came out about four months ago? No, I guess I never was a goth in the last four months, so I certainly was right in believing that you are the keeper of the true goth secrets and nothing I ever experienced could have prepared me for this great Golden Age. Would that I had waited until after junior high to succumb to my inner darkness, then I would be able to become gothic under the great idol of Manson and be blessed with his newest release.

[Marilyn]

But in the song he's explaining what The Golden age of Grotesque is.

[Perndog]

(psst...I know the lyrics...he's saying it's right now)

[EverythingWillSuck]

TO BE A GOTH YOU MUST SAY YOU'RE THE BIGGEST INVADER ZIM FAN EVER

EVEN IF YOU STARTED WATCHING IT RIGHT WHEN IT GOT CANCELLEDA :/

I'm more goth than any of you will ever be. I cut things, parts, take that

[Big Papa Goat]

That chick with the tongue thing is sooooo hot. I hope I can get chicks like that when I'm a tr00 goth.

P.S I'm so happy my thread has a second page! Is it ok to be happy about that as a new initiate to the Gothic culture?

[BaronVonBoner]

Is that really a chick? I thought it was at first, but then I wasn't sure.

EDIT: Ok, I'm pretty sure now she is a female. I don't know why I would think she wasn't. :/

[Perndog]

Yeah, because the Rolling Stones are really goth, and super goths all wear Rolling Stones shirts. :rolleyes

Oh, and that girl can't be goth because she's young and not fat, and that doesn't fit into my theory that all young gothic girls are fat.

Oh boy, a gothness expert. :blah
Hey gothy, how about giving us all history lesson on how the goth scene originated and how it grew out of punk rock. Tell us how the term goth came to mean what it does today, and how it was coined.
I'll bet you can't do it. I'll bet you don't really know anything at all.

[Perndog]

I doubt Marilyn is still around to continue this thread.

And you're right Kat, I don't know where the joke came from; I've only been around for just over a month. Oh well.

This is one fucked up joke.If I listen to MM and paint myself like a fucking retard and wear black can i be goth too??? >: Idiot kids.

GOTH: Germanic people who invaded the Roman Empire in the early centuries of the Christian era.

Now the word is associated with fucking cry babies.. What happened?

[Perndog]

The Gothic period of history was somewhere in the late Middle Ages - knights, castles, superstitions about dragons and vampires and all that. That's where goths originally got their imagery from, and then it kind of spiraled downhill with more pop-culture, pagan, and Satanic influences. It's associated with cry-babies because those are the kind of people who it appeals to; anyone can become a goth and have sort of a sense of belonging and a justification for being an outcast everywhere else, so whiners who are universally disliked can become goths and either feel better about their sorry asses or be proud of their misery.

[Big Papa Goat]

Goths were also a group of people originating from the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. The Visigoths went west, and participated in the conquest of Rome, while the Ostrogoths went east, possibly doing things I don't know anything about. This occurred in the early stages of the millenium, or perhaps before Christ.

Goths are a people who dress like they feel and are the ultimate difference in people today. We are original. We are sad. We are artists. We're not understood. We are cutting between the vagina and the anus and making vaganus's as we speak. NO ONE UNDERSTANDS! I hope you all die.

[MK IV]

Hmm didnt todays Goth's dress sense and look origionate from the new romantic scene , with all the ruffles and *old style* gothic clothing and MEN wearing makeup , and the advent of electronic music as it progressed and evolved , and then from that the industrial scene came about , and the music got *darker* and the cloth's blacker and the face whiter due to some bizzare connection and obsession with death I have yet to understand .

And then the 90's came around and we got such classic tracks as "Black number one" >:

Goths were also a group of people originating from the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. The Visigoths went west, and participated in the conquest of Rome, while the Ostrogoths went east, possibly doing things I don't know anything about. This occurred in the early stages of the millenium, or perhaps before Christ.

You came the closes.

The Goth trives arrived in Germany when they begged the Romans for help. Invaders from the east had pushed them out of their native land. The Romans gave the land to the Goths, and then started taxing them to slavery. Goth mercenary fighters fought for, and against the Huns. The largest threat of Roman power of that time. After Attila was assasinated, and the Huns scattered, the Gothic tribes started fighting back. They pushed the Huns back east, and carved up their own Kingdoms.

Visigoth/Ostrogoth are the names for the most powerful Tribe that brought together many smaller tribes into a united tribe.
The Visigoth tribe, under the Warking Alaric, sacked Rome, but the united tribes fell apart upon his death.
The Ostrogoths rose up from the ashes of the Visigoths, and sacked Rome again.

Anglo-Saxxons where also of Goth decent, and where shipped to England as mecernary fighters, and where left there. The Franks, are another Gothic Tribe, situated in Franch.

A while after, Christinaity completed the collapse of Rome, and the faith came to the Germanic Gothic tribes. Who embraced it, and did away with their Norse beliefs.
