definitely the same category. I've seen Goth folk wearing those types of boots with their Captain Jack Sparrow frilly shirts, and zipper skinny pants.Originally posted by MOSFET View PostNot quite in the same category.
I've also seen ravers wearing those boots, with their over sized Jnco jeans, candy necklaces, glowsticks, and sweet Paul Okenfold t-shirts.

They are related though, they are both equally retarded. Granted, juggalos tend to be inner city shitbags or wanna be inner city shitbags.Originally posted by MOSFET View PostThe two are simply not related.Originally posted by racrguyWhat's your beef with NPR, because their listeners are typically more informed than others?Originally posted by racrguyVoting is a constitutional right, overthrowing the government isn't.

Goths are flighty, and either live in fantasy worlds as often as they can break from reality, putting on this mopey, depressed thing their entire lives or, eventually, generally becoming responsible, contributory members to modern society because they realized withdrawal and rejection of societal norms is folly. Several (not all) are actually very intelligent but deal with the realities of life in unusual ways. Does that make them retarded? Well, yeah I suppose so. Veterans, patriots, and like-minded people to even yourself regarding the direction the country is and has been headed (as evidenced by your contributions to DFWM) also happen to describe themselves as "goth" because they still like the music, or the scene still suits them.
And then there are the shitbag, douche goths that everyone hates. Mincing words, more often than not, they are misattributed emos, rivetheads, or something entirely unto themselves. It's often hard to say because the entire goth/industrial/EBM/techno scene is very incestuous, with many subgenres between them. Goth is just the buzzword we all know.
I agree with your assessment of Juggalos entirely, however.
I suppose it's moot to discuss in the face of apparent bias, but the goth scene is pretty well dead now, honestly. Especially in the DFW area where it never really took off to begin with. What is ascribed as goth now is not goth as it was. By the time the media and everyone else became aware of the label en masse, the scene had evolved beyond its origins: an evolution of 70s punk rock and counterculture.Originally posted by Cooter View Poststupid douchebags who classify their selves with names like "jugalos" or "goths"
Goths used to deny being goth on principal, and the more one denied being goth, the more one was considered goth. Anyone who described themselves as goth, was not. It seems dumb, but the rejection of labels was part of the deal. I suppose goth is largely an umbrella term for an amalgamated waste-bin of people who cannot find some other niche to fit into, or flat rejected. Those that desire to have a label of their own end up taking this admittedly stupid term, else it is applied onto them by others. There are plenty of whiney bitches wearing their "oh-woe-is-me" on their black sleeves. I wish they'd just off themselves as much as anyone else.
The negative stereotypes are why I generally do not discuss my affiliations openly. I like the music and I've met enough really cool, decent, well-grounded people in the scene that I have a favorable opinion of at least some of the people behind the stigma of weird clothing and bad attitudes.Men have become the tools of their tools.

Pics? Does she attempt to shield herself with magic when the dragon's porridge gun goes off?Originally posted by ceyko View PostWell that sucks seeing a dude in those. Sometimes the wife dresses like a warlock (role playing) and has boots like that.
