Posted Apr 29, 2005 by Lord Job Boron. That's Lord Job Boron To You! This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 18 Shutting doors whilst forgetting your wearing a trench coat. People Finding somewhere to get Absinthe Therapists Difficult philosophy questions which you know what you mean and no-one else can understand what you're trying to say, making you look ineducated Rolling your own without spilling baccy everywhere School uniforms Life in general Trying to persuade your parents to let you paint your room black Loosing the argument and so covering it black paper only to find out ITS MORE DIFFICULT THAT IT LOOKS What do I listen to now? (U2 at the moment- you can't expect Bauhaus ALL the time) What good film isn't on the Horror channel (very occasionally theres a Bela Lugosi) Waking up at 7am Finding your way round in a dark room Compulsory PE Is eyeliner and nail varnish too much for school? Which one of my friends have overdosed now. Where am I gonna get the money for all my expensive clothes from now Random Burberry people at bus stops And all the other problems of life that everyone faces This may be the longest post I have ever posted.

This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 19 Oh and Liking Marilyn Manson and Cradle of Filth, simply because of the music and image and having other goths think less of you. I still like Bauhaus, Siouxie, Type O, SoM, The Cure (again not strictly gothic) and a ton of classical stuff as well as *somethings completly different* *SWISH!* And trying to work out what it says when its vs instead of Us and Y instead of Is and Is instead of Js like Vampyres are Ivst rockyng! Subject: goth problems... Posted May 2, 2005 by Jerms - a Brief flicker and then gone again. This is a reply to this Posting   Posting 20 "Shutting doors whilst forgetting your wearing a trench coat." - True; also sitting down in one and just about throwing yourself through the window trying to stand up again with your foot on the end of it. Very comical for anyone else, I guess. "People" - Yep. "Trying to persuade your parents to let you paint your room black. Losing the argument and so covering it in black paper only to find out IT'S MORE DIFFICULT THAN IT LOOKS" - Yeah why won't the damn stuff ever stay up?! "Waking up at 7am" - I would say alarm clocks in general. In fact, all mornings should be against the Geneva convention. "Which one of my friends have overdosed now." - Yep. Or, for variation, playing the game of "Which friend would be calling me at this bloody time of the morning? And are they still going to be alive by the time I get there?"
