    Well usually a parent is only worried about their child being a goth through their teenage years I would assume. And so basically if someone was going through puberty and starting to get interested in sex and was also interested in Van Helsing, that he should be in a medical facility.

    LOL, this was pretty funny.  In case no one noticed, this and any other articles related to St. Mary's Church are complete and total satire.  A similar article featuring WoW was on the boards here not too long ago.  Do a search on the WoW boards if interested... too lazy to find the link myself =P

    -suicidal and/or depressed.
    -Cuts, burns or partakes in any other method of self-mutilation.(This is a
    Satanic ritual that uses pain to detract from the light of God and His love.
    Please seek immediate attention for this at your local mental health
    center.)
    -Sleeps too excessively or too little.
    -Demands an unusual amount of privacy.
    -Watches cable television or any other corrupted media
    sources. (Ask your local church for proper programs that your child may
    watch.)
    -Plays videos games that contains violence or role-playing nature.
    -Uses the internet excessively and frequently makes time for the computer.

    guess I'm gothic then...?

    lol, that is such bs!

    and the one that hurt me most

    Lets think about society today, at one end of the Spectrum we have Goths and Emo's.  And at the other end we have Chavs....MY GOD!

    To be honest both are pretty sh*ty options i'm just glad i'm neither image

    Having a ''perfect'' teen that is serious, well educated, polite, doing everything perfectly is usually a LOT worser then having a goth teen.

     

    Goth teen is simply enjoying life and expressing some emotions.  A teen that suppress emotions and behave exactly like his parents want is something you should be quite worry about.  Suppressed emotions are not good.  I dont mean the teen cant be a good teen, but there is a line between been a good teen who happen to do a few mistakes here and there and been a perfect teen that never do anything wrong.

    Supressing emotions is what you call civility...Without it. There'd be no law or order.

    And this may be a false generalization, but any goth based people I've come into contact with, in fact seem to hate life.

    Your generalization is generally true. Goth people aren't "expressing emoations", they just hate life and want to pretend to be "different". Goths enjoying life is kinda the opposite of their philosophy.

    On a different note, 20 dollars this topic becomes a "cut myself/goth/mental problems" topic.

    -Eats goth-related foods. Count Dracula cereal is an example of this.

    So basically, a kid who is bi, masturbates, is interested in sex, likes Count Dracula cereal, and likes computers; is a goth.

    "Eats Goth-related foods. Count Dracula cereal is an example of this."

    ::::03:: lol. Yes, I'm truly frightened by someone who consumes Count Dracula Cereal.

    "Expresses an interest in sex."

    I guess 99% of teens are Goths then and worship Satan?

    "violently shakes head to music."

    Ok...

    "Is homosexual and/or bisexual."

    Ah, yes... The thriving gay gothic community...

    "Pursues dangerous cult religions. Such include: ... Philosophy..."

    Guess we should go burn down all of the colleges then... (hang the English teachers!)

    I dunno... You sure this is legitimate? Some of these just sound really... lame. ("Claims to be a Goth."?) Apparently I'm a Goth too:

    • Wears band and/or rock t-shirts.
    • Sleeps too excessively or too little.
    • Demands an unusual amount of privacy. (what does unusual mean anyways?)
    • Insists on spending time with friends while unaccompanied by an adult.
    • Uses the internet excessively and frequently makes time for the computer.
    • Violently shakes head to music.
    • Pursues dangerous cult religions: Philosophy

    Anyways...

    As someone previously said.

    It's a satire!

    I can't believe some of you people think this is serious...

  • burningattaburningatta Member Posts: 194

    dude who hell doesnt shake they're head to music that awsome. and anyone who sleeps too much is not goth. i mean this whole thing is just some church to agin, think things they're way. just like they all do. and thats what religion is.

  • VampirVampir Member Posts: 4,239

    wow actually only 4 of those fit me.

    video games and cuts self(used to), but i cant think of any others.

    but my motivation for cutting myself was basically to see how tough i was i did it with friends and we made a sort of competition out of it(this was my stupid youth)

    well i guess i did drink.

    but thats only 3.

    a thing they should have added is something like pyromania.

    so im not a goth.....

    but i guess gamblin cant be allt oo healthy.

    they also should have added fighting but all the goths i know cant fight and are total pussys.

    god if they added fighting ive actually been stabbed in the back with a knife before, so i would take the cake on that one.

    We didnt meant the same goths folks!  I myself would never even dress gothlike except for an afternoon or some party, but all goth folks I meet enjoy life a lot.  But that may be because...we dont even live in the same city or community.  Maybe the frenchie part of the local community spoiled our goth kids!  image  Party time!  image

    Murt, bragging about your depression on a videogame website is leading me to believe that you are not depressed.
