This entire thread.....the route that it has gone....is fucking rediculous. One person posted something that she thought was amusing and 'gothdom' has went into an uproar. i, personally, like ICP. i thought the article was uber amusing. The comments and reactions of people to this are not amusing. It's fucking stupid and childish. Grow the fuck up people.
I'm Jewish. I don't work out. If god had wanted us to bend over, she would have put diamonds on the floor.

This thread has ruled.
I learned something funny about ICP and what others think of them. I learned why the fans are so loyal and why they are into it. I don't like the music, the fashion or the majority of their fans, but I like people who express themselves and teach me new things. There is no reason to hate me for my opinion, I don't hate any of you for your opinions. Grown ups can disagree and debate and STILL be friends, its amazing.
Kudos to the admins for not locking it at the first site of disagreement. I think adults must learn to agree to disagree and move on with their lives. I have no problem with anyone on this thread and if they have a problem with me, oh well, their loss

Cause it's 'KnoxGOTHIC'
and i knew you were gonna say that so i allready had this rebuttle ready
not everyone on knoxgothic
is gothic
so when someone makes a comment about something
it may not allways be coming from gothdom
i think someone mentioned something earlier in this thread
about stereotyping
and that bit just takes the cake
i'd rather be your enemy than hear you call me friend

Well, shit. I think at least half of us will have to stop posting, now.
I find it very disturbing that anyone would be content with the notion that there is a "typical" way that someone would or should think based on the clothes they wear or the music they listen to or how black their souls are.
I was born a bastard - and then I just got worse.

I totally agree with you. I think this has been the only thread I've bothered to post on since before I went to Orlando.

I don't live in fear of them. If they happen, and I can't get away, then I suppose it's my time to go piss on the creator's lawnchair, then jump back into the kiddie pool. When Nature decides to rub one out, people die. This isn't a new thing.
Now, that doesn't mean I'm not going to attempt to get the fuck out of there, if I can. I've had a instance of being "chased" by tornados. Yes, Plural. And all because we were on a booze run.
I can tell you, though: the vodka I drank that night taste better than any other drink I've ever had.

I have to start this reply by saying that, when someone types a question and then includes a fuckload of question marks, I have a hard time taking the aforementioned question seriously.
However, I will, in this case, make a valiant attempt.
How did I feel on 9/11/2001? Happy, and disappointed. Happy, because an old friend of mine got married that day. Disappointed, because I got to see how much estrogen has leaked into the American psyche. Simply put, people became whiney, fucking bastards. I, for one, was mildly surprised that it'd taken so long, what with American society being so godfuckingdamned relaxed about such unimportant things as safety, caution, and the fact that just because we're statistically the most obese humans on the face of the earth, doesn't mean we're invulnerable to big, heavy, explosive-filled airplanes landing on our heads.
It's not like Tom Clancy hadn't already written a fictional story about such a thing happening. (I think it might have been titled Debt of Honor - I can't recall at the moment)
Anyone who was surprised by those events had never really let their imaginations run wild, and thought, "Holy fuck, it's possible someone could do that!" So yeah, I thought that people were being dumbasses when they were so shocked and appalled at the events that day. Hey, Hiroshima, it was not. At least it wasn't a nuke. In a way, though, I had to feel sorry for the shocked onlookers, because they obviously had spent a great deal of time hiding under the covers, and didn't have enough raw pessimism - what I often refer to as realism - in their diets.
C'mon, people. Take two big buildings, that had bomb attempts on them previously, and an army of angry militant middle-eastern psychos. Throw them together, and you have every stupid fuck in the country sticking an american flag on their vehicle.
I don't say all of this to belittle the victims of the attack. I say this to belittle those who take offense to seeing things as they actually are. I say this to belittle those who allowed it to happen. And, I say this because those same people are currently running this so-called democracy.

Iblis, I feel ya. Completely off the original topic but none the less valid. September 10th and before I was notorious for wearing a veitnam military issued all weather jacket with all of the origianal patches that was given to me by my uncle who was in the "conflict". For this I was ridiculed by some people. Like most of the time I let it roll off my back. September 11th rolls around, you know what happend? Every single fucktard buys a flag and the same people who were poking fun the day before were saying how cool it was to show support. I hadn't changed. I felt so angry at the fact that what was patrotic to me 2 days before wasn't good enough but 2 days later was the new trend. Being patriotic isn't a trend, it is a state of mind that we all should have. That is why I speak my mind more now than ever. I got tired of not being heard, even if I am wrong.
