Except when you get to the point where you kill someone elses dog, just to "belong"...Aylaine said:If it allows them to feel like they belong, and accepted, then I don't really see a problem with it. Sure it will come with problems of it's OWN, but at least those people have a place where they can feel that sense of belonging. A lot of teenagers really need that, and I'd accept finding it in most places nowadays with how varied people can be in their interests and activities.Nurb said:

Demz bloody nobz aint knowz nothin about our [color= green]WAAAAAAAGH!!![/color]C-Demo said:
I was there, man, in school when goth first started really spreading in the early 90's, and everything recently "non-conformist" kind of spun off of goth and grunge (proto-emo). But Whatever you saysoilent said:Nurb said:emo is goth without the committment... similar music interests, same clothes, just less white and black make-up.soilent said:
and they shop at the same store:
...
Goth is about as different from emo as jocks are, and no, they DONT shop at the same stores, real goths loathe hot topic, along with anyone who isnt a complete poser asshole, the emo kids and the scene kids are the only ones who go there, and they only do it because others do, Goths share NO musical interest with emos and if you actually cared to read into this before spouting random words, you might know that.
Goth = The Cure/The Smiths/Sisters of Mercy
Emo = My Chemical Romance/Panic at the Disco/newer green day
go listen and tell me they are even CLOSE to being similar.
EDIT:
PRO-TIP: You didnt hear this from me, if someone says they are goth, or someone else calls them goth, THEY ARE NOT GOTH. Being goth is about avoiding labels, and I only assigned the goth label to the above bands to prove a point, so dont try to get me on that one. Emo is about being emotionally open and pesimistic, goth is about not being anything but yourself.

I not be trollin (I can troll far better than that post), all the people I know who were/are furries either have or claim to be emos or goths, so I'm just assuming its the same thing, and I did sort of jump to a conclusion calling them furries, I just find it odd thats all.tehpiemaker said:
