I really see nothing but style to it these day...

I used to be Goth until i realized it is nothing but a style and has many negative effects on a person...

It's a lifestyIe man! Just like Hippies. Just happens to have similiar clothes 8)

Emo may be more of a fad than Goth though, they're never taken seriously, nor do they take themselves seriously either.

I agree, I used to be goth for 4 years........ its just a fad, people grow out of it.......its mostly 9th graders today that are getting into the whole goth thing...... I listen to all types of black underground metal but I dress nothing like it, theres no need to dress goth to show someone how much you like the music lol....they do it for attention

Goths have been around for hundreds of years, I am unsure about emos, but I don't think they are fads.

Quite literally.

Punned(Like pwned M I RITE!). Or is that not a pun? It felt punnish. Anyways, they're lame. Just because you're Bisexual and depressed doesn't mean you need to listen to angsty music, dress weird and cut yourself. I'm depressed(Or at least pessmistic) and Bisexual, yet I'm listening to Air Supply, and I wear loafers and am scarless, it's not that bad kiddies.

A HAWT style, might I add. Now, I'm not into cutting when it comes to chicks, but that get-up is nice. Oh, yeah. Who's with me?dreDREb13
It's okay, but the problem is when you associate being sad and stuff with it. Music, clothing, and emotion can be seperate things, so they don't understand.

Both "Goth" and "Emo" are definitely "fads" or rather phases. Most people grow out of it about half-way through high school. Anyone who still claims to be "Goth" or "Emo" after high school is just a messed up individual.

The "AND" operator was unnecessary, and was eliminated from your search.

Well Goth really as much of a fad than emo is becuase Goth has been around for longer where as emos started to mass populate about 4 years ago, at least where i live. Not sure why people are still going on like this about emos though. It was only a major thing 2 years ago where I live and everyone just forgot.

I wouldn't call the goths a fad, but, very few decendants remain.

The Goths (Gothic: gutans, Gutans) were East Germanic tribes who, in the 3rd and 4th centuries, harried the Roman Empire and later adopted Arianism (a form of Christianity). In the 5th and 6th centuries, divided as the Visigoths and the Ostrogoths, they established powerful successor-states of the Roman Empire in the Iberian peninsula and Italy, respectively.

The names Gutar (Gotlanders) and Goths are etymologically the same ethnonym. Related, but not the same is also the Scandinavian tribal name Geat. Goths and Gutar were *Gutaniz while Geat was originally Proto-Germanic *Gautoz (plural *Gautaz). *Gautoz and *Gutaniz are two ablaut grades of a Proto-Germanic word (*geutan) with the meaning "to pour" (modern Swedish gjuta, modern Dutch gieten, modern German gießen, Gothic giutan) while designating the tribes as "pourers of water", i.e. "men, people".[1]Gapt, the earliest Gothic hero, recorded by Jordanes, is generally regarded as a corruption of Gaut. Interestingly Old Norse records do not separate the Goths from the Gutar (Gotlanders) and both are called Gotar in Old West Norse. The Old East Norse term for both Goths and Gotlanders seems to have been Gutar (for instance in the Gutasaga and in the runic inscription of the Rökstone). However the Geats are clearly distinguished from the Goths/Gutar in both Old Norse and Old English literature. The second theory is the most plausible, because Gota means pouring of water and like all Indo-Europeans they always establish their settlements near the rivers.

True, but not everyone of those cutters hits a big one, it takes multiple attempts over a long period of time, assuming they don't want to kill themselves but only want to "relieve themselves" when they cut. Although, I don't think you can cut yourself for that long and not have an accident. Hmm, I'm gonna find out the accidental suicide rate of Emos....gimme a minute, it should be somewhere on wikipedia :|.

Yeah, I didn't read it either :cry:
But, I assume if I just said something about the queen of the goths being fed her sons in a pie in shakespeare's titus, no one would understand.
