I printed this article out, and showed it to a couple of my friends, and a few classes. Even a few teachers.

They all laughed like mad, and thought it was WAY out there =P

Yeah, I'm suspecting it was just that. When I found this, it was in a goth magazine article on their website, with the url of the school as the source. Looking at the school's webpage, it's entirely possible that it was posted there before, but was either too old or controversial that it was removed.

One never knows...

You know, I'm not quite sure. I google'd the list and found it on multiple "goth" sites for their humor sections. All of them referenced the same source, though in checking the source I couldn't find it. Hmmm....

I wouldn't be surprised if it was made up, but then again I wouldn't be surprised if it weren't. Coming from a devout Catholic upbringing, I've seen and heard people say such things about goths and even at a very young age thought the Catholics were on something when they formed their rules to follow.

The part that really gets me is the "Assosciates with people who look or speak eccentrically."

...
1. One that deviates markedly from an established norm, especially a person of odd or unconventional behavior.
...

Umm... so... If you talk to a goth... you are a goth...
...
...
...
So... if you aren't one of us... you're one of them... and if one of them touches you, then you're infected...

Am I reading too much into this?

Hell, according to this thread people that are "hip hopper" teenage males are goth... my mother is considered goth by this... what the fuck?!

And since the list is so long I figure that it will list what doesn't apply to me since it's shorter:

- Takes drugs (caffiene excluded)
- Is excessively awake during the night
- Misbehaves at school (skipping class doesn't count)
- Misbehaves at home (technically I don't)
- Eats goth-related foods. Count Dracula cereal is an example of this (first off, it's Count Chocula idiots! I hate marshmallow cereals)
- Dances to music in a provacative or sexual manner (nope, but there go those hip hoppers)
- Wears pins, stickers, or anything else that contains these various phrases: "I'm so gothic, I'm dead," "woe is me," "I'm a goth" (I'm sorry, those sound stupid)
- Claims to be a goth (rarely, I prefer to say I'm quasi-goth if I have to label myself as anything.

O_o

You know what it sound like... One of the Jerry Seinfeld's joke. There was Elaine's boyfriend who say that Elaine was going to hell because of her "evil deed" and he want to go to heaven since he was nothing but "too caring, helpful and want to save everyone" and well...

The priest went like: "Well, with the story you told me... Both of you would most likely to go to hell." Then Elaine and the priest was like pretending to be demon, haunting Elaine's boyfriend...

Most 'goth' friends of mine, are big time readers and writers. Honestly.

I'm not one myself, and never wanted to be nor will be, I'm just your typical 'nerd' who wears videogame T-Shirts in High School and has no life [general view by the masses]. Hoho yeah.

As Pockets said, being goth really has nothing to do with being a Satan-worshipper. It's just a subculture in our society that likes to wear black, be depressed, be into all the parts of life that invoke depression (death, vampires, angst, etc) and usually partake in being as controversial as possible in doing the least amount of everything, because it's trendy to act as though life were pointless and dark and whatnot. No offense to anyone who considers themselves goths out there. Heh, I can rip on punks if you like... metalheads, maybe?

I dunno, I don't really go for the being goth, though many are cool, it's just not for me.

It sounds to me like you answered your own question there, Pockets. Read closely.

Actually, Gothicness is the worship of Satan. I am not a Goth myself, but it annoys me when people act "Gothic" (which has become a pop trend for little boys and girls world wide! *ching!*) when they aren't really. You know who I'm talking about. The girls who dress in all black but actually is a normal person inside. They sacrifice their identities to conform with the fashions of "Gothicness". Crazy people and their stupid conformist ways.

Bah. Pity on the foo who tinks otherwise, right pal?

Mr. T: *Grin*


Mr. T: *Ching!*


Actually being Gothic has nothing at all to do with worshipping satan. Only Satanists worship satan. Goth is more a style of dress. I've known some gothic people that aren't all depressed and mopey and tortured souls and all that that were actually really cool people.

Goth is today very commercial even though a lot of "goths" claim to hate commercial stuff. It's really become a trend a lot to be goth a lot like being bi-sexual or fashionable or whatever.

I would be considered quasi-goth as Elara has been known to say because I like o wear black a lot and I have a tendency at times to gravitate towards the slightly morbid or macabre. There are also some clothes I've seen your a-typical "goth" wear that I would absolutely LOVE to own. But that's just me.

Now onto this list.

... WTF!?!?!?!?!?!?

What are these people smoking and where can I find them so I can take away their crack supply? This is just the most insanely huge load of bull shit that I have ever seen in my entire 21 years.

--Associates with other people that dress, act or speak eccentrically.

So what if my friends might be a little odd? The hell does that have to do with ME?=/

--Complains of boredom.

You try living with an overprotective mother in a trailer park filled with old people and not getting bored. =/

--Watches cable television or any other corrupted media sources.

*impossibly loud laughter* I'm done. No, wait, it's resurfaced. *more impossibly loud laughter*

--Frequently wears black clothing.

Huh. Now, I know it's already been said, but... don't nuns usually wear black?

--Expresses an interest in sex.
--Masturbates.

Alright, I've a challenge for anyone that's interested. Go find ten teenagers that don't fall under one of these two. I'd give you money if you could, but I'm a selfish little bastard.

--Plays videos games that contains violence or role-playing nature.

The only words to describe my reaction aren't even words. "..." fits nicely.

Jesus... Christ... What's kinda religious is this? I mean... I never camplain when I was totally bore (and guess what, I can't get bore too easy!) and I like the night because it felt comfortable during the night... And who care if I overslept most of the time!? I alway oversleep because my brain get so damn tired every now and then.

And hey! I spent alot of time alone and do you see me speaking through evil spirits? All I did was meditate and speak with my own spirit and... Well, they got a point but the demon spirit have a good heart through. My souls is just dark but my heart is light...

And I tend to eat fast because I got a huge stomach... what's wrong with that? Are they saying that being overweighted is a major problem!? And T.V? WHAT THE FLUX? I like t.v. and if there was a religious channel on and we all watch it, would they even fricking ban it!? And Video game!? HOW CAN THAT BE GOTHIC-LIKE!? If they even made a fricking religious game where the person banished all evil thing to hell with a press of one button, would they STILL fricking ban it!?

God, this religious crap is just so wrong... I think my demon spirit want to punish them for saying something stupid... And still protect people's lives... (Yep, my "evil" spirit hate criminal and want to protect innocent, so in a way, I just want to make the world a better place...)

This make me sick... Who do they think they are? The 12 Law of Jesus? (No offense, Jesus and God... I think these people need to stop placing restrict on people's life and stop telling the world is gothic. Please, forgive me...)

Did you know that Sponge Bob will turn your children Gay? OMFG, let's try to take him off the air!

I'll admit SpongeBob is stupid, but I find it entertaining.

I found an article on MSN news a while ago, but i can't find it now. here's one article.

Wow... according to the list I'm the paragon of goth, except for the dancing thing.

And Cairoi you are right, its annoying that there are all these people that are poser goth.

I mean me I'm sorta the punk/goth person but I'm not a poser. Why does the catholic church hate me?

Wow, I never noticed how upset the Catholic church was at us gamers. I thought Jesus was my Homeboy.

Anyhoo, that supports my Nun Ninja theory even better. At my little brother's First Communion last weekend, this guy stood up and attempted to take pictures, and when I looked back about 30 seconds later, he was gone and the people around him didn't notice.

I TELL YOU, NUNS ARE THE SITH AND THE THE "POPE" IS REALLY THE EMPO-*Nuns silence me with flying ruler shuriken*
