I hate goth elitists.
"I'm sooo goth, I was getting my eyebrow pieced when i was NINE and before anyone KNEW you could pierce an eyebrow!!!"
"Oh yeah?? Well *I'M* so goth that I was going to REALLY GOTH CLUBS and making my own clothes when I was ELEVEN!!!"
"OH YEAH!! WELL STUPID KIDS WHO HANG OUT AT THE MALL AND LISTEN TO MARILYN MANSON DON'T KNOW WHAT GOTH IS!!!"
"OH YEAH!?!? WELL JUST WEARING BLACK DOESN'T MEAN YOUR GOTH, IT MEANS YOU'RE UNORIGINAL!! I'M WEARING PINK NOW!! IT'S THE NEW BLACK!!"
Listen you unoriginal bastards in your pissing contest of NOTHING.
You can listen to Marilyn Manson and still be goth.
You can listen to the fucking DIXIE CHICKS and still be goth.
You can wear other colors and STILL BE GOTH.
Being goth isn't just about cutting your wrists, drawing on terrible eyeliner or taking pictures in cemeteries.
It's about feeling the music, fitting into that groove, seeing something a lil' different and going "ooh.. Yes.. I *like* that"...
If you sit there and listen to hoodrat music 24/7 and dress like a Mansonite, call yourself goth and have NO CLUE who Peter Murphy is, YES, you can be and most likely are, a poser.
Just because someone scenes out later in life than *you* doesn't mean that they need to be fucking HAZED or something by you since you are "gothier than thou".
Just because you're pretentious, it doesn't make you a goth. It makes you an ASSHOLE.
