Are goths the same as emo's? Are these the people that go on killing sprees in American schools? If they are then i don't like them much. :frown:
What happened to Teddy Boys?

Re: Goths
 

I think an emo is what you become when you find goths too cheerful and hate their colourful clothes.

Harmless people living their lives and not hurting anyone. Everyone has always (more so since the late 50s) believed themselves to be individual but never are. Punks were the worse. They firumly believed they were their own person and immediately dressed exactly the same as their mates.

Kids are kids and until they damage themselves or others, I don't see that anyone has a right to dictate to them.

Off soap box now. I seem to be very serious tonight. Bit scary :lol:

Not quite them, probably more along the lines of Cradle of Filth and Marilyn Manson.

Re: Goths
 

Its the Emos that amuse me - my daughter is going through a wanna be grebo/gothy phase - were calling her elmo for short at the mo...she says shes not an emo cos she doesnt slash her wrists!!:blink:
black clothes, black hair, black nails - she looks yuk but the boys are 'hot' for her - shes grounded btw!

Re: Goths
 

I was a full blown goth for quite a few years in my teens. I'm an accountant now, please dont hold either against me :o

Still like Marilyn Manson tho!

Re: Goths
 

AN ACCOUNTANT...PHEWIE THATS SOME KIND OF ADMISSION....:rofl:

Re: Goths
 

Wow!

You know ? - i'm only thirty odd and I really don't get it. I'm soo worried that i've like totally lost it man (not sure I ever really had it actually)

What's it gonna be like in 10 years time wen my kids are teenagers? - I think i'll just give up now and start watching Richard and Judy and take up Lace making - Resistance is futile - I just dont get it :blink::blink::blink:

Re: Goths

Re: Goths
 

Sorry, my mistake ;)

Re: Goths
 

I was terribly disapointed in my kids they weren't outrageous and didn't rebel at all!

perhaps it was because they knew i wouldn't care:confused:

Re: Goths
 

When you qualify you work out what you are going to tell people when they ask what you do. Some mumble it really quickly and hope it doesn't get noticed, some choose to lie, and claim to be an undertaker instead.

There was talk for a while about setting up Accountants Anonymous where beancounters could openly admit to others what they do for a living with no embarrassment, but we were too ashamed to say it even to each other....

Re: Goths
