In the last week, I've been shouted at in the street for being a 'dirty goth', 'a greebo' and a 'mosher' (metaller). Bizarrely, mostly I get this shit off emo kids, and only rarely from chavs (for anyone lucky enough to be unfamiliar with chavs, they are the ones in tracksuits and baseball caps, dripping in cheap jewellry and more often than not riding what looks like their grandmothers bike, I'm sure everyone has their own name for this breed of people). I dont mean to sound like a crybaby, but it didnt use to be like this!
PS. It always amuses me how little shit my punk friends get on the street. I guess its because everyone knows a goth doesnt want to roll about on the floor fighting... It really ruins your threads!
