I was more referring to the types of Goths that are whiny and cry about how they're unique/"DON'T JUDGE ME =(". I suppose I noticed that when the majority of goths and emo's I've spoken to have appeared to have this annoying whiny thing about them where they want to talk about how unfair or how sucky life is. Although to be fair, in this country, there are no goths over about age 18, and the ones we do have are usually idiots who drink too much, or talk like they're wise and dark. That just annoys and embarrasses me. Those types of kids aren't taken seriously over here. If you saw a goth covered in black ripped clothing, corsets and skirts over here, chances are, they'd be laughed at within five minutes of leaving the house. I'm not cruel to them, but I probably would snicker because it's rare sight over here. I just try to lump stereotypes together these days because I find that for the past few years, they mean a lot less to me. Although it doesn't stop me from genrelisting all my music, just because I'm boring and have nothing to do most of the time. I dislike kids of these days as well. I have been lucky enough to spot some pretty intelligent kids out of the masses of stupid ones, but it's a rare finding.
Hmm... I have to stand up for what Sheena said in the vampire thread. I think the main thing you're missing is that goths in the UK and goths in the US are different things. Here (Massachusetts), goth is a general term applied to people who wear dark clothes and dislike most pop culture. That's it. Anything else added to it is a matter of personal preference for each individual "goth." In my day, we were all just called "freaks" anyway. There was no goth, scene/seen, or emo. You were either a prep or a freak. Freak included nerds, metal heads, misfits, et cetera. We all had somewhat different tastes in music, dress, games, et cetera. Our only truly uniting factor was not being accepted by the majority of the people in our school. Honestly, I'm not even sure what the hell an emo or scene/seen kid really is. After my time. All I know is that I don't like kids these days, haha.
I never got a chance to thank you for wishing me well. So, uh, thanks. =) The hand's much better now.
I like you. Good luck with the hand. My entire right arm is disfigured from an accident when I was younger and the healing process sucked so I guess I know where you're coming from. Take care!
