Proud Father - My first visitation by Klaproth

Cool goth kiddies wearing all black

I saw a pair of really cute, must've been 16 year olds, dressed up in their cute little black numbers with their faces painted white and stuph. All I wanted to do was run over and hug them and squeez them into itty bitty pieces. They looked soooo sad and depressed. Don't you just have to love them. It is crazy how scared some people get of goths confusing them with satanists and other hairy cults.

I really think we require a hug-the-goth-next-to-you day. I'm sure that even though this might freak them out a bit it would do them a world of good.

PS: Most of my friends either are, or have been goths, it just amuses me that my kid sister is so scared of people wearing black...
