Again I am at a loss as to what a "fake goth" is. I do not see how someone
can be goth at heart. Goth is a stereotype. Its a way of dressing. Its
people still trapped in the aftermath of teen angst, or art fags, or people
who just think it looks pretty (im sure there are more). Goth is not a
state of mind. Being goth does not make you a unique and individual
snowflake. So why is it bad (as stated in "Back in Black?") that this style
of dress is popular. Last year is was animal prints, this year its all
black.
For example, I became "goth" when i got compliments on wearing black quite
often, when i saw some other goths and went ´wow, that looks really pretty.
i want to be pretty like that´. is there something shameful about that? So
if i dont listen to bauhaus, get sad over my dying rat, or come up with
catchy titles like "jesus in the life of a cigarette" im a fake or a
newbie? You guys here act more like the ravers ive met than most goths i
know...
Get your self some goddamn glow sticks and talk about plur somewhere
else....
Thats my shmeng........

I´m confused. When did anyone attack you or say you were a "fake goth"? Did
a lot of people in the shmeng community do this to you? It seems like you
are acting like the entire website of people attacked you as a gestalt,
hence why you bashed us all. I ask this because it seems you are being
offensive in order to be defensive from someone else´s action.
As for what “goth” is, no one here really cares. Goth is like being awake.
So what, there is nothing special about it. However I am still confused on
where you get the gall to approach people here at random, without
justifiable cause and fling shmeng. No one called you a fake or newbie, so
why did you attack bettie_x about a personal issue? That was a shitty thing
to do.
People come to this website to express their distaste for people or events
creating shit in their lives. Instead of respecting that, you have come to
this site and created more unwelcome, unwanted shit. Hence why I personally
feel why you are not welcome here. This has nothing to do with your
clothing or your opinions, it has to do with your shitty personality, total
disregard for other’s feelings, the way you approach things, and your
thoughtless actions.
If I may, I would like to direct you to the post by Devin, called "The New
Laws" it is under the "This website" topic. I hope in this situation Devin
will enforce these laws. This is not for me to enforce for I do not own
this site, nor do I decide if you stay or not. But you should know that
this is not your website as well, and it is a privilege to be here, so try
being nice.
And Fuck You.

I´m not entirely sure what your damage here is, Sin. Did someone call you a
"nay-so-goth" goth? I didn´t catch it. Anyway, there is forum after forum
dedicated to the age old question "What is goth?" (The guy in the saffron
robes said that goth is a bowl of cherries. I didn´t get it either.), and
I´ll be chuggered if I know what it is. That is why I ordinarily just keep
clear of these debates rather than throw my ignorance on the table and
shine a spotlight on it. I am not a goth (nor am I an "I-am-not-a-goth"
goth... work that out and get back to me), I wouldn´t know a Bauhaus if it
came up and bit me, I think I saw a raver once but it might have been a
fire hydrant... anyway, my point is:
Stick your shiny goth label on your lapel and get over yourself. If
somebody questions your gothitude, that is somebody else´s problem. If you
disagree with the shiny labels that everyone is putting on everyone else,
make a little note of it and move on... it does not warrant undermining
somebody else´s pain (the cheap shot at Bettie over her pet was absolutely
uncalled for... unless you are suggesting that only "real" goths can
express sorrow or sympathy in which case you are neither goth nor poseur,
simply a garden variety jackass). I don´t care who is goth and who is not,
nor do I care who thinks I might be or not. If you think I am a poser,
poseur, or poster, I will sleep just the same. I would really like to
suggest that you do as well. I am, I was, I will be
just this guy, you know?

ENOUGH!!!!!
I am tired of hearing you “doomcookies” rabble on about what is goth or
not. What gives you ANY god damn right to attack another person OR judge
them? Especially one who did NOT say anything to personally assault you?
Without ANY justification you took a big fucking, inappropriate cheep shot.
If only there were less ignorant pompous bastards like yourself in this
world...
Now, I don’t listen to Bauhaus, I can’t even spell their name correctly
half the time. Yes, I do listen to Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Type o
Negative, Cradle of Filth etc, so am I a fraud for listening to music I
enjoy? What exactly DOES that have to do with me? People here mentioned
those names before but they were in a jest. So what am I? Please, grant me
the right to BASK in your infinite wisdom!
Fucking idiot, you haven’t even talked to me once and you already decide to
label me. Gothic raver. There are many people who dress “goffic” and go to
raves. Does that make them a “goffic raver?”
“Goth is a stereotype. Its a way of dressing. Its people still trapped in
the aftermath of teen angst, or art fags, or people who just think it looks
pretty (im sure there are more). Goth is not a state of mind.”
“You guys here act more like the ravers ive met than most goths i
know...”
Ok, you just contradicted yourself. You just said that goth is a
stereotype. You’ve stated that goth is a style for “art fags” and it is not
real. Then you’ve stated that you know real “goths.” From what I just read,
there are no “real goths.”
So, what is a “raver” then? What state of mind makes a raver? PLEASE
illuminate us all with your wise and all knowing mudslinging!
Also, even if there are “art fags” here (or anywhere) doesn’t mean that you
have any god damn right to insult their choice of personal lifestyle.
Moving on:
Back in Black, if you read between the lines, was taken as a JOKE. It had a
humorous underlining threwout the whole thread. Maybe you sense of humor is
dry in that area, next time try to open your eyes alittle more.
This entire site has a humorous tone to it. People here do not take
themselves as serious as you do. This is a forum which people come to
express feelings, thoughts or hold a intelligent causal conversation.
“Get your self some goddamn glow sticks and talk about plur somewhere
else....”
I doubt everyone will leave this place just because of your decree. Next
time when you decide to be a asshole, please think before you type.
Also you owe you know who a apology for that “shmeng sling.”
Ummm...Im in the Navy...so in the winter time we wear winter blues (which
are really black, but its the military..go fig) so when everyone on this
base in the winter is wearing that...does that mean they are goth...heh..i
think not...thinking your a goth is one thing, acting the part another.
I am ME. Nothing more, nothing less.
And so by attacking this community...you are also attacking some fo the
people that arent goths.
So suck it up you teeny weeeny fuck nut. :evil: :grin:
____________________ "Roses are Red, Violets are Blue. I'm a schizophrenic, and so am I".
I love trolls, they are crunchy and go well with mustard.
I am sorry that the goth person that you tried to date wouldnt fuck you.
these things happen to all of us (yes even i have been turned down before).
Maybe you should try your luck with other black clad freaks and see if they
will fuck you. If that doesnt work try some other fashion group.
If you want to bitch about "fake" goths, please go troll a goth site. there
are lots out there and you are bound to get a response from something that
claims to be goth.
As for making fun of bettie about the death of her rats, what can i say
other than I can track you info and tell your parents. You IP has been
logged and reported.

oh and Im not as dumb as you think; i do remember you and your periodic
attempts to troll this site. I remember the last one where you claimed to
be the only real goth and the bit where you asked for advice to be a better
goth.
and you are still an addle-brained wanna-be hick. so get over it, wear your
plaid shirts with pride and stop pretending that you have an opinion or
worth.

Just to join the Sin bashing (whiplash), Sin, what exactly is going on? Are
you crying out for attention? Are you really as bitter and angry as you
seem? Do you really think there is something to be gained by flinging
shmeng? I had forgotten just how much of a troll you were until Callei
reminded me of your past posts in the forums. Your three whole comments on
articles have ben poorly thought out or trivial at best, and as far as I
can tell...you´re wasting my oxygen thinking about ways to piss us off.
If you want a teensy bit of advice, don´t attack people in pain. Even if
they are still too wrung out to fight back; most of them have friends. Now
this may not be true of you. If you are anything like this in the flesh I
suspect the only ´friends´ you have are back-stabbing, untrustworthy,
catty...well, let´s just say you are probably a clone of them. The whole
WIG (What is Goth) issue has not and will never be settled. It´s a mental
excercise we love to indulge in because the whole idea of "goth" is harder
to define than some of the other super-social paradyms under which we might
fall. However I will say that claiming Goth is just a stereotype (and
somehow therefore is not a valid self-definition) is something to which
you are uniquely unqualified to do. Not because I think you are not goth,
but because you have proven you are not thinking. Stop wasting our time,
stop insulting us and our friends, stop using air that could be fueling a
perfectly nice grass fire in your home town; and stop pretending that you
have spent enough time thinking to have a name.

What crawled up your ass and died? Or is it not dead yet?
Where do you come off deciding what goth is or isn´t? Did somebody say that
their black was blacker than your black? Are your tender feelings hurt?
Fuck off.
To be fair, I´m new here, and I still haven´t seen everything on this site.
But nowhere, absolutely nowhere, did I see such a rude, bitter,
self-serving, random attack on people. Nor have I seen personal attacks.
What´s your gripe with bettie_x? Are you jealous because she can string
together sentences that don´t fucking contradict themselves?
You know what, go sit in front of your mirror, and try, try, try to make
yourself pretty. Really. Because if this little writing is any reflection
of your personality, you´re going to need some small thing to fall back
on.
Of course, what do I know? I´m probably still suffering from some sort of
left-over teenage agnst.

I wanted to comment about how passionately I don´t give a shit about this
forum, but I realized I was too tired and had an early morning.

It´s quite amusing to read DarkMistress´ last Story after having read Sin´s
ramble...
I can´t help but feel sorry for Sin. It must be horrible to feel compelled
to read evrything on a webiste that obviously has no meaning to him/her.
Maybe it is a little like being tied up in front of a TV-set with only
Married With Children re-runs.
Sin: I hope they loosen your cuffs soon, nobody should be put through
that.

Boy, everyone beat me to it...
Sin, coming on here and stating your opinions is one thing. Many people do
that, and it´s not a big deal. Personal attacks to someone you KNOW is
griving and in pain is entirely different, though. It shows what a small,
mean, NASTY creature you are. You aren´t even worthy of a time-out. I
suggest complete banishment in your case...

Awwww shucks... heh.
And I agree, banning him is the best option.
Now, I did it once, I´ll do it again.
*hands everyone but sin a perdy black flower*
Hey, guys, go check out the pictures she´s posted in the members file.
Sort of throws out the idea that you can be attractive AND intelligent,
doesn´t it?
Oh, and on "goth is a stereotype" bit as well.
Then why post your fucking picture on "am I goth or not"? This whole thing
reeks of sour grapes. Bad, sour grapes you can´t even make good booze out
of. And immaturity.
Sin, it´s not my fault you´re a fucking feelingless bitch. You´re not a
troll, you´re a bored, lifeless, egotistical, pretentious, self obsessed,
snotty, rude and hypocritical snatch. Go ahead bitch, press the issue of
my dying animals a little harder. I´m soooo gawwwth I looove the
paaaaaaain of being told that a treasured member of my family, and then
another just a month later, are going to fucking DIE. I FUCKING LOVE IT.
I FUCKING LOVE BURYING MY PETS I FUCKING LOVE WATCHING THEM SUFFER I
FUCKING LOVE HAVING THEM PUT TO SLEEP I FUCKING LOVE IT. FOR THIS EVER
SPECIAL AND HAPPILY AWAITED EVENT I´M GOING TO SMOKE A WHOLE MOTHERFUCKING
PACK OF CLOVES, DYE MY ROOTS BLACKER THAN ANY BLACK YOU OWN AND
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP BY THE FUCKING RIVER BANK I HAVE TO BURRY THEM AT IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT SO I WON´T GET CAUGHT BECAUSE I HAVE NOWHERE TO BURRY
THEM AND I DON´T SIMPLY THROW A TREASURED LIFE IN THE FUCKING GARBAGE CAN.
:-x
Push it, princess.
I fucking dare you.
What the fuck is your problem? What the fuck is wrong with you? Does your
mommy not understand you :cry:? Did your daddy not let you get that little
black bigwheel you weeped a week long to have and slit your wrists over
:cry:? Did one of your friends steal your pack of cloves and your last
bottle of absinthe :cry:and sent your precious little black panties up your
ass?
You´re so positively precious I just want to puke.
You lack character, plain and simple. The only thing worse about you is
that you are a goddamned hypocrite. HALF the WIG threads that ever
appeared here were submitted by YOU. YOU. YOU so uninterested and "tired"
with GAWTH. You the almighty leading authority on the hearts and minds of
others. A day inside your head must be like the scene in being john
malkavic....every word you hear is your own name, and everyone looks like
you because you´re so goddamned special and intellectual and a fucking
enlighted "snowflake".
Hence the snowflake remark stop stealing my fucking lines...but then again
it makes it all the funnier because it reminds everyone how pathetic and
uninspiring you´ve always been.
And I don´t wanna hear any of this art fag shit from you, little miss
"scald them with prose". When you have no valid argument or anything of
value to say you resort to half baked mocking "poetry" posts that rival the
angstiest scribblings of any other mundane, boring teenager caught in their
own web of drama and self loathing. Go on, bust out your spiral notebook
of lamentations and wit and scorn...it´ll be FUN! Good times, girl, good
times!
And as for the jesus bit, I´d find an eternity in a room with my garbage
cleaning holy roller a HELL of a lot more enticing than spending any amount
of time listening to your useless patter and overwrung bullshit. But then
again, come to think of it, five minutes alone with you in a locked room
would be a PLEASURE.
I don´t want a fucking apology. Should you all of a sudden feel the need
don´t fucking bother (and I"m not holding my breath either...I know you
think you can do no wrong and you´re just another "misunderstood" soul in
the "abyss"). You can take that, all your bullshit and all your pretense
and shove it up your ass with whatever else crawled up there to die.
If you wanna email me and fucking deal with this personally instead of with
this passive agressive typical female bullshit(yes, darling snowflake,
you´re TYPICAL) then do it, and I´ll REALLY let you know what I fucking
think.
:evil:
Go fuck yourself.
:evil:
No I mean it. Fuck yourself.
:evil:
For really.
