Okay all you goths and gothetts (I love that opening) here is the current up to date absolute definition of "goth" or being "goth".
Lycshiftz Wrote:Gothic: Design of architecture. Later formed a religion based around it. If youve seen the movie the Order. (bad example but still) Its the same religion.
Gothic also means a dark area or something dark. *thus creating goths to wear black*
Goth: People running around claiming to be sick of life. Who only listen to music created by goths and are not open for discussion on lots of things.
Gothic (Refered to in the articles on the links): People who cry that they are alive and think they are vampires. These are the people id like to see go shoot themselves.
Its simple. You vote yes if you agree and have no qualms with this definition, as stated above, of being "goth" or vote no if you have a qualm with the definition, as stated above, of being "goth".<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->

*shrugs* I'll be happy either way. It all stems from the fact I hate unsubstaniated statements or definitions. Nothing personal really.

I've noticed you've made it if you don't agree with one thing, then you pick no?
Well, goths make me sick. They walk around whining about how life sucks all the time, when half of them don't have anything wrong with them
And there is a few who do walk around saying "Life sucks" and those sort of statements, and then you say something about them being a goth, and they say "its just a fashion" or something like that.
But anyways theres this one goth girl in one of my classes and I swear shes trying to curse me. She always walks around talking to herself, flames coming out of her eyes.
Plus there has been threads like this before, are you people obsessed with the view that others have on you?

lol Why would I take it personally? I never claimed to be goth... I just dont like people who take it upon themselves to insult things they dont understand. Didnt have anything against you. Let along I prolly still didnt have anything against Pantallica.
I just felt like clearing a few things up.

Now how can people say it has nothing to do with a religion or something like that, when Lycshftz title is "If your 555 then I'm 666." Now if any of you know from this little book I call "the bible", 666 is the sign of "the beast" which means Satan.
And Lycshiftz you say your not gothic, but look at your signature and avatar. They're dark and all that. Plus at the bottom of it, it says "Writing our own death".
Pantallica has linked here before, but this is another thread for it, so I'm going to too.

GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE Today, the word Gothic primarily describes a style of European architecture which flourished from the twelfth through the sixteenth centuries, though the word seems originally to have referred to any non-classical (Greek or Roman) architecture. Gothic architecture used pointed arches and vaults, flying buttresses, narrow spires, stained glass windows, intricate traceries, and varied details; its upward movement was meant to suggest heavenward aspiration. The words Goth and Gothic also described the Germanic tribes (e.g., Goths, Visigoths, Ostrogoths) which sacked Rome and also ravaged the rest of Europe in the third, fourth, and fifth centuries. From this source, the words came also to mean barbarian, barbarous, and barbaric. By the eighteenth century in England, Gothic had become synonymous with the Middle Ages, a period which was in disfavor because it was perceived as chaotic, unenlightened, and superstitious. Renaissance critics erroneously believed that Gothic architecture was created by the Germanic tribes and regarded it as ugly and barbaric. This erroneous attribution continued through the eighteenth century. As a result of an upshot of interest in the Middle Ages, Gothic architecture experienced a revival in the late eighteenth century; Horace Walpole rebuilt Strawberry Hill as a medieval castle and William Beckford spent a fortune on his medieval, elaborate imitation, Fonthill Abbey. The revival flourished in the nineteenth century and Gothic buildings were constructed throughougt England.
Dun dun DUHH!! B!tch has your solution every time. I agree. Yes. "goths" can be whiny. But i dont let clothes in way of personality. Ok. If someones a ****head someones a ****head. Doesn't matter what they ****ing look like. Conclusion = Goths have nothing to do with ****heads.

I guess I could being I told you I was, and I see no problem with doing that if I agree with the opinions. Pantallica didn't make those up, and nobody flamed him about it. Also, I think they had the right definition going on in the renaissance.
Death, your absolutely right, all the kids should wait until their like 14 to become gothic, like you.

Ghosts2003, how come you base being gothic with a signature, avatar, title, or username? Just cause somebodys internet username is a certain thing, relating to death, darkness, doesn't mean that the person is gothic. I'll just click "Yes" and walk away.

I'm not a "goth" by any means. I've been called a goth by idiots on the street. I don't consider my self a part of any "group" such as goths punks or skaters. And that flame wasn't realy needed.

It was in the back right corner. It was a picture of an angel statue. Hard to miss really. I think he has changed his sig since that time though.
