    Blooteh goths and ppl who wear balck to be "original" along with all their other balck clothed friends. I mean wtf? wat are u all so angry about and why do u all have to congregate outside the central bank and take over Temple Bar

    I know its just a phase but its stupid. The really irritating thing is it reminds me of america, especially when they talk in american accents :mad:

    there, I've Had my rant :P

    seriously though there is NO NEED FOR ALL THE BLACKNESS!!!!!


    (note to self, azezil will post on this thread, nearly definitely. Possibly with one of his goth girls pics :rolleyes: )

    i wear black a lot, and i dont do it to be original or anything, i just feel comfortable in that particular colour. so whats the big ****ing deal, what coluor clothes do you wear, and does it really matter that much? :mad:

    I'm not a Goth myself but why does it bother you so much, and what makes you think someone who wears black is angry?? (Thats just a tad stupid) It may because of music they listen to or just maybe people like the colour black. It's really the least of Dubliners worries with all the complete scumbags hanging around all over the place. I believe the chances of Goth pulling a knife on you and demanding your phone and wallet are pretty slim.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,348 ✭✭✭Ryo Hazuki


    Would it matter if they all wore blue? I like blue, and wear blue stuff a lot.
    american accents

    Fake american accents? Thats news to me, but Im sure you did hear it. That would be quite annoying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,945 ✭✭✭D-Generate


    Anyone remember when Bubbles did a thread like this before. That was such a funny thread with all the goth mockin :D

    Also while typing this reply i found out that Bubbles is a censored word


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,152 ✭✭✭ozt9vdujny3srf


    heh i have no problem with ppl who wear black because they look good, my problem is with ppl who go round in black pierced angry swarms. The point is they are all contradicting themsleves and turning nto americans

    Im sorry But How are they affecting you? Is this causing you some psychological damage.... No? In a perfect world, you sir...... would mind your own business


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,680 ✭✭✭Tellox


    whats your problem?
    I wear black about 80% of the time, and im no goth, but one of my mates is, and he's fairly dead on.Its their choice to live this way, and I really doubt they care about internet rants about them. tbh, if its how they wanna look,its how they wanna look, and nobody has the right to stop them

    Just waiting for Angelwhore's standard "Definition of all things Goth" post...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,305 ✭✭✭The Clown Man


    I don't think it has to do with black clothing as such but I have to say that all the crusties that hang around templebar, sitting in doorways, skateboarding and eating the faces off thier respective black or red haired women tends to offend me. They all seem totally harmless but I don't like the attitude they have towards everyone else walking past. Not aggressive or anything, more condesending, like we are visitors to their turf.

    And then maybe I have picked them up wrong.

    It's not that I have anything against goths, I know a few myself who are bang on, but if I saw anyone I knew hanging around TB carrying on like some I see I would tell them to find a bench, find a park or find a room, and get the **** out of my neighbourhood! :p

    Yea but them upper-class twats aren't Goths, they're just... twats. Twats waiting for their mummies to pick them up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 605 ✭✭✭exiztone


    I think goths are different to those of Temple Bar.
    Just observing, I notice they all wear baggy clothes and band t-shirts of modern metal bands mostly.

    I like gothic music myself :) I'v found that guys who hang around there (don't get me wrong, I don't know them all) would listen to bands such as Deftones, Korn or System of a Down.

    They are no-where near goth music :)

    What the hell do you mean by that ? Comparing Gothics with Americans ??? I dont really see the relation there but Im sure you can explain it.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 18,986 Mod ✭✭✭✭Moonbeam


    doubht taken over is accurate in any way,maybe more so then in country towns but what do u expect with a population the size of Dublin?
    so what if there are people who dont the same as you,if you look at every group of friends whether they be goths,rockers,trendies etc they all dress the same,
    but I dont see u complaing bout the label wearing kiddies who all dress the same but then again they arent all wearing black are they?

    Dammit..thats one ugly looking goth Syx.

    If you can't tell the difference beetween a Goth, people who wear black, and those godamn Temple Bar kiddies...

    I have an easier way of dividing people.

    you're either

    a) A ****tard
    b) A not-****tard.

    I rest my case.

    I dont know much about goths or know any for that matter but afaik being a goth is something of a phase unfortunately being a scumbag is not a phase, i think scumbags are as logie suggested more of a problem than goths......

    Too true


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 660 ✭✭✭anthonymcg


    I ain't got nothing against nobody. Cept trinity students, uch, like vermin they are. Anyhow...

    I reckon we petition the city to get rid of the kiddies hanging round temple bar. Could be quite a good skit. Take a couple of industrial strength hoses and wash em right outta there. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,817 ✭✭✭✭po0k


    Or boots..... :)

    thats not a valid argument though iaf :P I have lots of good songs in my playlist but i also have aqua - barbie girl...can i argue based on your logic that aqua are as good as pearl jam?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,213 ✭✭✭✭therecklessone


    Yeah, get the Mayday Squad out...

    The kiddies that hang out at the Central Bank are not Goths, despite what they'd like to think themselves. Ten years ago they'd have worn flannel shirts, ripped jeans and converse shoes. Ten years previous to that it was biker jackets, stretchies and white boot runners.

    It is a phase, and they'll grow out of it quick enough, usually after they go to college and meet other people.

    Leave 'em alone, its called teenage years.

    And heres another honest statement from me, if it was late at night, with no one around, and I was driving along a road, and there was a Goth crossing it. I wouldn't slow down yet alone stop.

    bubbles = 100% correct!
    choke them on their own makeup!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 605 ✭✭✭exiztone


    How many goths does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

    One to unscrew the old lightbulb and drop it, and ten others to slit their wrists on the broken glass.

    =/


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,263 ✭✭✭Caesar_Bojangle


    I find some *goth women damn straight bangable tbh, another one of my sexual fetishes if you must, but in order to get with most you must be a goth yourself, which i aint. Needless to say i have not sampled too many goth women as a culmination of this.






    *not the fat ones

    Jesus lads, will you ever cop-on...

    Kids hanging around the central bank listening to korn and slipknot is absolutely nothing to do with Goth at all.

    And until you lads come up with pics of Carl McCoy and Andrew Eldritch having an amatuer skateboarding competition, STFU!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 658 ✭✭✭xx


    Okay Angel, you seem to know more than most of us here about goths, we'll defer to your knowledge. Give us the top-ten characteristics of a true goth as opposed to the dregs who hang around at the central bank. Your 60 seconds starts.....NOW!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,152 ✭✭✭ozt9vdujny3srf


    Ok maybe i went to much on the Black clothes thing, and hey, maybe they aren't "technically goths". I have no problem with the indvidual people, I no plenty of sound people who went through the phase and are out of it again.

    The point is its irritating and there are LOADS of them in town.

    Also, its just so bloody American, (and blooteh hell we don't want to end up like them :P)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    So I suppose by your definition Johnny Cash isn't "Technically Goth"...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,421 ✭✭✭Doodee


    o ffs, check the histry on the Rock/Metal boards for the Bovril Lavigne thread!

    Me and Ken have argued this out time and time again, if ur looking for a definition then thats the best place to go, some top quality ranting by both parties.

    now, as i was saying

    BATS! DEVIL CHILDREN! SMOKERS OF OLIVES WHEN THEY CANT FIND CLOVES :P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Oh ffs, Doodee...

    That was completely unrelated.

    Peeps, ignore doodee.

    These goth posts are ****. Whether these people are goths or not who gives a flying **** and who cares what colour they wear. They aren't harming anybody.

    I think you should be ranting more about them manky nike/adidas (and various other white coloured tracksuit producing brands) wearing scangers (which are far more numerous in Ireland than goths/moshers/poshers/rockers/greebs/etc).

    Scumbags/chavs/scangers/nackers/whiteys, whatever you want to call them, are the problem. They are all a bunch of moronic twats.

    The worst kind are the rich ones that pretend they are poor to be "cool". I ****ing hate wannabe scangers, we have lots of them 'round Salthill in Galway. Theres also loads of 'em in Templeoge/Rathfarnham areas of dublin, its almost 50/50 in population percentage in that part of Dublin with rockers and scangers now, scangers in the slight majorty.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,421 ✭✭✭Doodee


    dont ignore me, ignore ken, he is mr Ubb3r Twat!

    I mean ffs, i was pointing them your practical definitions as was requested.

    but more than likely you've changed that mind of yours in the ever expanding head.

    COw Donkey's!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    No you weren't pointing anything of my definitions out, Doodee... Especially seeing as on that thread we were discussing Black Metal. Not Goth. Which just goes to show that you know exactly 0.04% of what you talk about.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,396 ✭✭✭✭kaimera


    Also, its just so bloody American

    can you explain this or are you just sterotyping?
