Yea.. I am new to the community, Mike my buddy runs it. So do I enjoy the goth scene? Yes I do, however I'm not goth, I ain't gonna lie. I've just always found the look and attitude of the gothic people to be interesting. And it's always good to broaden your horizons. And just like a goth would.. I fuckin' hate the little fake goth kids that think they are so dark and mysterious just cuz they slap on some bondage pants and throw on "The voices in my head don't like you" t-shirt with some black lipstick.. my high school was full of them. (Ya happy mike, I joined =) now I'm cool!)
