Proper Goth? White pasty face, shite dancers, sunken cheekbones, long hair at the back, receding at the front and a unhealthy fascination with The Fields of the Nephilim. | |

| Re: Goths 'more likely to self-harm'
theres been similar studies before as my stupid psd teacher when i was in 4th year (like 5 years ago) read one and decided that i was "goth" i must be a self harmer and pulled up my sleeves in front of the whole class to prove that she was right. all she saw was bracelets. i told her this before hand and she didnt listen to me. she then decided i must cut elsewhere and she would get to the bottom of it. she got in a lot of trouble for that as she denied it, but a class of 30 saw her do it and althought the majority of them disliked me they disliked her alot more. Then took early retirement. funny that.

The 'receding at the front' bit just comes with age. | |

There ought to be a test on statistical significance that you're required to pass before they let you become a journalist.
