i wear bracers and collars up my right arm and wear black boots and crap.. while playing.. but the thing is you have to understand hot topic doesnt make you a goth or punk at all..

when i wear the leather and stuff im also wearing old navy underwear underneath laugh.gif but also pants from various other storres and whta not...

you are goth if you wear make up too.. and well ddr+make up = smearing..

i am not considered anything because i fit into every category there is...

but i prefer to be based as a gamer/ punk because though i dont hav emuch of a caring heart alot of times, and i like belts on my arm E10.gif
you tell em the controls to a game i promise ill be kicking your buttocks within an hour... which is why i love ddr and itg, because it takes longer to have enough strength balance and control to be better...

so yeah hotpic doesnt make you goth, most hot topic poopy makes you a poser, if your truly badass then MAKE your own stuff.. like i do alot.
go ahead buy shoes though (those are hard to make)

XD

Bull. Walk a mile in my shoes. To be honest, I want as little attention as possible. And I'm fairly certain I'm not crazy. Ever heard of "expressing oneself"?


Please... SHUT UP. Why do you whiny little goth kids always act so tortured? Do you honestly think that you are the only person in the universe that has had a few bad things happen in your life? Holy crap, just shut up. "Goths" are idiots, and no, that doesn't mean that they are not book smart, it just means that they will fail at life if put in a realistic and sterotypical society. You are socially inept and tend to stick together because you are, in a way, retarded. Once again, not book smart retarded, you are retarded at living up to the "normal" standards of everyday life. If you are so stupid that you want to call yourself "gothic", then you need to do some serious thinking on wether or not you should continue breathing. You will never contribute to society... ever. So stop standing up for yourself. biggrin.gif


I present two questions to you: A.) How many points did the guy get for this thing and B.) Do you think it was more or less than his IQ? I wouldn't bet either way, too close to call. Where in that does it say bad things happened to him? Where does he says he's tortured? That's your assumptions, not his opinions. Always remember: when you make an assumption, you make an buttocks out of you and mption. And let's look at the dictionary definition of "retarded:" "Slow or limited in intellectual or emotional development." And you're saying that they're retarded, not at intellectual or emotional development, but at living up to the standards of normal life. Yep, Id's say most goths are slow or limited at living up to the standards of normal life. I consider myself proud to be slow to live up to standards, expectations, and status quo's. I put in every effort to ignore them entirely. If that scares you, deal with it. I'll be over here having fun.

Him saying "walk a mile in my shoes..." That pretty much sums up the "oh boohoo look at me"/"tortured soul"/"life is pain"/"write poetry in a corner while crying" thing. Okay, so I am being a little excessive there... why? Because I can be. Your choices don't scare me, laugh.gif if anything, they make me ALMOST feel bad for you. Hey, don't get me wrong, I'm all for "having fun", but not everybody's definition of fun is the same. If you want to spend all day at the arcade playing DDR, go ahead, you probably have nothing better to do on that day. If you want to listen to $hitty music, try to be a part of something that doesn't matter and be shunned from society, okay, fine. Call yourself "goth" and don't talk to anybody because chances are you will ruin there day just by breathing. By the way, by trying to make it seem like I didn't know the definition of retarded, you actually just proved not only that I did, but you proved the point that I was making as well E9.gif Way to go. It doesn't matter wether or not you are proud of being retarded, my point was simply that you .are retarded. E1.gif See, I win again, no assumptions were ever made here, except the one where you assumed that I assumed. Once again, my point is proved. E4.gif

"Walk a mile in my shoes" just means "try to see my point of view." Something you don't seem willing to do. Not "I'm pained." Just saying you don't conform to society's standards doesn't mean you do useless things--quite the contrary. Let's look at some great nonconformers through history, in no particular order:
Jesus (either as the Son of God or just as a nice guy depending on your religion)
Martin Luther
Aristotle
Thomas Jefferson
Einstein
Martin Luther King, Jr
Your opinion of goth music I can't argue with; you're entitled to it. Trying to break out of the norm is quite possibly the most important thing one can possibly do. The only society I'm being shunned from is the one of people like you, and frankly I'm obviously not missing much. Oh, and I was agreeing with your definition of retarded, I was simply saying that being retarded at some things is good, just as excelling (the opposite) at some things is bad. You wouldn't say "I excel at stupidity." I think that covers anything.

What I don't understand is why people catagorize other people like they're spices in a spice rack. Anyways, I think that anyone who calls themself "Goth" is just trying to be something they're not. If other people call you "Goth" because you wear all black, let them, it's their opion, the freedom of speech is still in effect unfortunately. Most people that call themselves "Goths" don't know anything about the Gothic culture and therefore are blind idiots in my eyes.

You stole my insult and my points about being proud of who you are, but yay...Goths are not whiny, they are (in 95% of the cases(I use that term loosely)) quiet outcasts who are unaccepted because of the way they act, dress (which I still think is awesome style), and think. I'm (as I've said) a very hyperactive person, but can control it. If you talk to a "goth" and get to know them, they are nice people with interesting views on politics, life (I swear, if anyone says that those points are "life sucks" I'll pm them until they crack), and philosophical terms, they just need to be understood.

Okay, look: I am feeling quite ill right now, (fever maybe?) so I can't think of anything good to say. By him wanting us to see his point of view, he is signifying that something out of the ordinary has happened to him, otherwise it would be pointless to see things through his eyes because they would be exactly like everybody else's. I don't even have to assume, it's just fact: Whiny little goth kids always have had things either too hard or too easy to be a "normal person" and they want to stand out. He went through some kind of trouble, so yeah, I'm still right. STOP TRYING TO STAND UP FOR YOURSELF WHEN YOU ARE CLEARLY WRONG. And who in the hell excells at stupidity anyway? Stupid people aren't good at being stupid, they suck at life (usually) and they don't need to live. Also, don't give me that noncomformist crap, the only reason people like the ones you mentioned had to try to change society was because society was f'd up and stupid to begin with. It is people like me who represent Jesus (I'm an athiest by the way), Martin Luther King jr. , einstien, etc. We need to rid the world of people like you. Sure, I know a certain group of religious people who set society back, but you are making them afraid to change even more. "goths" help no one.

Thank you kind sir for suming this whole thing up

I can't even do that, I don't like the idea of people who are wrong constantly thinking that they are always right. Sometimes it just bugs the hell out of me.

Let me get this straight: you're saying he must be claiming to have had hardships because if he wasn't tormented in some way, he wouldn't have a different point of view? Are you actually trying to say that everyone would have the exact same point of view if bad things hadn't happened to them? I'm not even going to bother arguing with that. Its error is patently and pathetically obvious.

Some have it too hard, some have it too easy, and some have it just right but decide that they're not satisfied with being the same. Obviously you are. Anyone in their right minds wants to stand out.

Y'know, you're right. Let's just kill the stupid people. They're only bogging us down anyway. I'll write up a statement. We can call it "A Modest Proposal." (look it up)

...and society is a shining beacon of happiness and joy now? have you looked around lately? Society is still f'ed up and stupid. Just because a person wasn't born with the extraordinary gifts needed to incite a great change like those people did, doesn't mean they're not allowed to try and go against the flow. I'm completely sure any of the people I named would be disgusted with you right now--honestly, you're claiming MLK would stand against people's right to be different? Give me a break. And wow, people being different scares those who don't want people to be different, who'd a thunk it? They can be afraid of change or not as they please. That doesn't make it right and it doesn't make them any more powerful. On the contrary, the more people are different, the less power conservatives will have, which is kind of the point.

Please... SHUT UP.

Not now that you've called me out.

Ya know, there are people that cannot help but take things way harder than you ever will, like, for example, breaking up with your boyfriend/girlfriend. I'm one of those people that is destroyed after a relationship. I mean, seriously destroyed. It's a bad thing, and happens to many, but I take it harder than everyone else, probably because I'm more human than most people will ever be.

Quote:
Holy crap, just shut up.

You flame me, and I'm gonna come back at you.

Quote:
"Goths" are idiots, and no, that doesn't mean that they are not book smart, it just means that they will fail at life if put in a realistic and sterotypical society.

Actually, my aunt and uncle are both ex-goths, more punk now that they've matured, and are quite successful. Uncle is a Sergeant in the Army, and Aunt is a great mother. That is pretty much what the Average American family is - a working father, and a stay-at-home mother. On those grounds, they seem successful.

If you are a goth, and do not succeed, its your own damn fault for spending all your time at school doodling pentagrams on your notebook. This is the "realistic" truth. You're being part of that "stereotypical society" you mentioned.

Quote:
You are socially inept and tend to stick together because you are, in a way, retarded. Once again, not book smart retarded, you are retarded at living up to the "normal" standards of everyday life.

Hey, we eat, sleep, work, and do everything else you do to try to make a life for ourselves. And if we were socially inept, why would we stick together? Being shunned and being socially inept are two TOTALLY different things.

Quote:
If you are so stupid that you want to call yourself "gothic", then you need to do some serious thinking on wether or not you should continue breathing.

If you are so stupid as to call me, and others, out on stupid stereotypes you heard from your mother, then you need to do some serious thinking before you flame someone who's probably much smarter than you (ie myself).

Quote:
You will never contribute to society... ever. So stop standing up for yourself. biggrin.gif

The way you said that with the colon-D smiley almost made me puke. You act as though flaming someone's very existance is just something you do every day. IMO, that is an act generally associated with assholes, who don't contribute to society. And who says I will never contribute? I annually participate in JOTA, which involves letting Boy Scouts send stuff on my Ham radio. Thats a pretty big contribution, especially when viewed as a whole - it is a world-wide event that people really like. As far as I am concerned, this is a MAJOR contribution, even if it is just applying to a few kids who just want a badge. Therefore, I am closer to winning at life than you.

As for standing up for myself, I'm not going to stop. Even if I am wrong (which I'm not), immoral, ect, I will still stand up for who I am and what I believe in.

I won't even dip into the flames Backbeat responded to, since he pwned you.

BTW, Backbeat rocks. <3

That has actually summed up the point of EVERYTHING up to now. Thanks backbeat.

Please tell me thats a joke. A realistic and stereotypical society, there is nothing REALISTIC about the way human society operates at all, its ridiculously petty, worries about things it doesnt have it, and puts restrictions on people who think differently than the masses. All in all society is a joke in itself.
Stereotypical society is however.



If society werent so screwed up, and useless I might add, you wouldnt even have outcasts, or people who tend to stray away from it. You have such groups of people because they realize that society is actually a cluster****. Everyday I lose more hope in humanity when they do some ridiculous crap. They actually cry about the word "Slut" in a harry potter book when there are far far more important things to worry about (not to mention that kids nowadays actually hear that type of language in the 3rd grade.)

Am I what you would consider a "Goth" as you put it? No, absolutely not, but I have enough sense to actually look around and see that society is not some shining ray of hope that we should all flock to, some of their morals and what they think is right is bound to conflict with a great deal of people including me, and there are more people that share views like mine than you obviously see.

Bull. Walk a mile in my shoes. To be honest, I want as little attention as possible. And I'm fairly certain I'm not crazy. Ever heard of "expressing oneself"?

Well sure, but nobody cares, so theres no point, unless you trick yourself into thinking that you matter. (hell, the same applies to me)

Please... SHUT UP.

Not now that you've called me out.

Okay, whatever, I'm still having fun.

Why do you whiny little goth kids always act so tortured? Do you honestly think that you are the only person in the universe that has had a few bad things happen in your life?

Ya know, there are people that cannot help but take things way harder than you ever will, like, for example, breaking up with your boyfriend/girlfriend. I'm one of those people that is destroyed after a relationship. I mean, seriously destroyed. It's a bad thing, and happens to many, but I take it harder than everyone else, probably because I'm more human than most people will ever be.

Wow, what a loser, I'm sorry that you are a pu$$y and can't handle things that everyone else deals with already. Wait, no I'm not. That doesnt make you more human, if anything, it makes you less human, and a giant cry baby. Get over it. Also, Just stop having relationships, if you are going to complain and be miserable anyway.

Okay, goths are shunned as a group, or form into one later, and you can only communicate with your own kind, you aren't even people anymore. You are losers who can't socialize with many others OUTSIDE OF YOUR GROUP.

Thats a pretty big contribution, especially when viewed as a whole - it is a world-wide event that people really like. As far as I am concerned, this is a MAJOR contribution, even if it is just applying to a few kids who just want a badge. Therefore, I am closer to winning at life than you.

No you're not, laugh.gif That's conforming, remember? You have to wear make up all of the time and contribute to charities that nobody likes. You have to be different if you are "in your right mind"... Moron.

Oh, and by the way, I've read "A Modest Proposal", and my goodness did I enjoy it. It's good to hear something that would work, even though society would never allow it. E1.gif

Okay, look: I am feeling quite ill right now, (fever maybe?) so I can't think of anything good to say. By him wanting us to see his point of view, he is signifying that something out of the ordinary has happened to him, otherwise it would be pointless to see things through his eyes because they would be exactly like everybody else's.

Let me get this straight: you're saying he must be claiming to have had hardships because if he wasn't tormented in some way, he wouldn't have a different point of view? Are you actually trying to say that everyone would have the exact same point of view if bad things hadn't happened to them? I'm not even going to bother arguing with that. Its error is patently and pathetically obvious.


something out of the ordinary
something out of the ordinary
something out of the ordinary

Ugh, will you people pay attention for once?
He is goth, so it is always something bad...
He has had severely different life experiences, if he didnt, he wouldn't be that different, now would he? Argh... I'm so tired, I'm not even sure if that made sense or not. (and goodness don't post about this if i didn't make sense, I can't help it right now...too much Nyquil)

so yeah hotpic doesnt make you goth, most hot topic poopy makes you a poser, if your truly badass then MAKE your own stuff.. like i do alot.


Yes Hot Topic doesn't make you goth. Goth must be seared into one's soul. Goth is not sold in stores or taught in schools...one must become goth out of the mystic nature forces.

Saigo...you're hardcore. You're not a goth clearly, so you're a hardcore nothing. You've labeled yourself as someone who cannot be labeled. And that's hardcore.

I think the argument is that goth kids (whether they except themselves as goths or not) perpertuate a stereotype. They act as if they are dark, tortured mysterious souls which is why they wear all black and stay pale. Most people wouldn't associate that with a poppy dancing Japanese game.

But of course, no goth will ever admit to being goth. After all, nothing can truly make you goth. Hot topic is nothing. And goths are exactly the same as everyone else anyways. They just want to fit in. So goth is everything and nothing.

But I think it's a bunch of bullshit.
