How To Be Goth

Wear all black. In fact, if you have anything of any other color, throw it out. Unless its red. The color of blood is soooo cool with black.

Cover yourself in white makeup and black eyeliner will make your look a vampire. Make sure you draw lots of stupid little designs coming from the corner of your eye. Its better if it only comes from one eye, and make sure you scribble the design halfway across your face.

Listen to Marilyn Manson. A man who wears an asexual rubber suit is so hot.

Be a loner. Don’t talk or hang out with anyone except other goths.

Write poetry constantly, and make sure its all about the world and how shitty it is. Write poems about how much pain you feel, and how miserable you are all the time.

If you’re a girl, wear the absolutely sluttiest boots and shortest skirts you can find. Fishnet stockings are always a plus. If you’re a guy, wear tight black vinyl pants. Sometimes its cool to wear platforms too, but that’s on special occasions.

Wear an inverted cross or a pentagram at all times, and make sure it’s in a very visible spot. You don’t want anyone to forget how much you hate God for making you live in this horrible world.

Whatever you do, make sure you stick out like a sore thumb. Be as weird as possible. The point of goth is being "different". If you don’t appear to be dressed up like it’s Halloween, you’re not doing it right!
