I am personally a goth, and find this entire list offensive. Not to mention I’m a Christian. Being goth is simply appreciate the darker things in life. The above list is for MALL goths.
you need to lighten up, as it seems you adopted the parts of goth-dom and christian-dom that are devoid of a sense of humor. this list is hilarious… and yes, i do quantify myself as goth, though not so goth that i shit cobwebs. perhaps by your standards that makes me not goth at all. perhaps i should just bow to your obvious gothy superiority. ok, i can’t even type that with a straight face…
These are funny. I relate to some, but used to relate to about 90% of them. Hahaha. That’s awesome!
I don’t consider myself goth. I used to.
