I always thought the goth kids were the coolest in school.
I was in school during the emo times, so you either had that or trenchcoat creeps who liked Marilyn Manson too much. I got to feel cooler cause I was punk as fuck (still am, just no one cares now).
I just wore black because I was overweight and was sad all the time. I became defacto goth but I didn't really mean to
I hung out with the goths but I couldn't be arsed to do any of the styling. They were just very into Tim Burton, menthol cigarettes and HIM in my experience.
Wait, people still gatekeep being goth? Thought that stopped about 25 years ago.
I'm here to keep it going. Real goth is first wave and Eastern European synthwave. Thems the breaks.
Goths only have the luxury of chairs but for a handful of evenings per year.
Tbh I think the depictions on the right are still cute especially the one with glasses and the nondescript bottle of hooch
You think it’d be “goths a few times a week” and “goths the rest of the week” but that look takes time.
My local goth/alt community is riddled with sex pests, rapists, and collaborators thereof. There are some decent people trying to build an alternate power structure, but the big money events are still the old crew
Is a shame. I like some of the aesthetics and have met some comrades in it. Also, one of the events had stripper nuns with flamethrowers who looked like they were having a good time
