I am 23 years old.
I am 172 centimeters tall. (2.54cm = 1", 30.48cm = 1')
I am younger than I look, and I have a photo on my webpage.
I am skinny.
In a crowd, you can see that I am North Caucasian.
Changeable physical characteristics (my body as a canvas)
My hair is buzzed very short; a "number 2" haircut.
It is currently coloured light (mouse) brown.
I sport a flat top.
I plainly display on my face a beard or sideburns.
I was once quoted saying about my makeup, "I don't wear makeup."
I have scars.
If you asked me about tattoos, I would say "I have no tattoos at all."
Attitude:
I'm a goth. I know who's what, why's who and what's why.
Most other goths think I'm "eccentric."
People think that the way I differ from everyone else is the way I think (some of the things that I say can appear really bizarre and wierd to people I meet).
I started being a goth in 1988.
Why did I get into the goth scene? I loved the babes and/or boys in the scene and I wanted one!
What kind of goth am I?
I am a DefeatistGoth:
"The whole world's against me. I can't get a boy/girlfriend... can't get a job... I wish those bloody bells would stop... why is it always _me_!" Like a sarkygoth, I have a chip on the shoulder, but my prefered way of coping is by moping around and blaming myself and everyone around me.
Sometimes I'm an EnnuiGoth.
Occassionally I'm a ShyGoth.
My moods are introverted, so there'll be times when I just have to be a recluse sometimes
Upon meeting me, you can see right away that I am an IndustrialGoth:
They cannot cope with the idea that they're Jeans'n'T-shirtGoths who just wear t-shirts with Industrial bands on them.
Sometimes I look like a Jeans'n'T-ShirtGoth.
Occasionally I look like a MilitaryGoth.
I look like a goth 24 hours a day.
Education, Career and all that daytime stuff
My primary occupation is in Factory work (putting things on things repetitively).
...Where I gained employment.
My secondary occupation is in Gardening.
...Where I gained employment.
My tertiary occupation is in Factory work.
...Where I gained employment.
I've been quoted as saying "I have good hand/eye coordination and I am usually good at video games, I'd prefer to work towards my goals rather than catch opportunities as they come to hand, in this world I think it's everyone for themselves! and rules are made to be broken!" Music, skills and preferences
I like music.
I can honestly say I enjoy listening to First Wave Gothic (1980s), Second Wave Gothic (1990s), First Wave Industrial (1960s-1970s), Second Wave Industrial (1980s), Third Wave Industrial (1990s), First Wave Punk (1970s), Second Wave Punk (1980s), Third Wave Punk (1990s), Thrash, and some other music style/s not listed.
I can play musical instruments, I write my own music, and I have recorded my music on tape as a Demo or personal home recording.
Opinionation
God? Atheism? I don't care about it either way.
I believe that I have an immortal soul, that lives on through Karma or some other soul rebirthing system.
I don't mind politics.
When someone make the mistake of asking me about economics, I replied "Governments should not give hand-outs to companies."
The last time someone made the mistake of asking me about human rights, I replied "I'm too much of nihilist to give a crap about the rights of other people."
Gender issues don't matter to me...
I don't really believe that the environment can be helped by the efforts of individuals.
My favoured form(s) of government (in no particular order):
Anarchy (where defined as the state of having no laws), and Communism (where defined by "from each according to their ability, to each according to their need").
Vampires (or, "down the hall, third door on the right")
I haven't made up my mind as to whether vampires are real
I think it's sort of embarassing that the vampires thing is included in Goth.Code 98 at all.
Can't we just pretend the scene is more mature than this?
What really annoys me about this gothy vampire crap is someone who claims to be a vampire in the traditional sense; cape, fangs, turns into a wolf or bat at will, etc, and an "energy vampire" who feeds off the energy and happiness of others.
The goth stereotype that really bugs me is where Goths are supposed to always wear black, Goths pretend to be vampires; The really sad ones try to be vampires, Goths are supposed to be into Satanism, Goths are supposely just attention-seeking whiners, and Goths are supposed to be pretentious gits.
Food and Drug Administration
Alcohol? I don't think it's my thing, really.
Droogs? I don't think it's my thing, really.
Regarding recreational drugs, I use nicotine products (cigarettes, a pipe, chewing tobacco, cigars, etc).
Fast food is yum! (eg, MacDonalds, Hungry Jacks/Burger King, KFC, etc).
The food that I do eat includes Food that contains preservatives, colourings, MSG, etc.
Technology
My computer inventory includes Windows 95/98.
My list of Internet info: I have a dialup PPP/SLIP account, I have shell account access, I write publically accessible HTML on my web page, I use Javascript on my webpage, You'll find me on Newsgroups that are scene-related, I write on lists distributed by email (eg, a listserv or majordomo service), I browse the web, I use BBS's in my local area, I am on IRC (Internet Relay Chat), and I am a regular on WWW-based forums and chat pages.
I got on the internet in Hallowe'en of 1991.
When asked if I was computer savvy, I replied "I often hack to find out, or kludge my way through, information about how to make ordinary programs, gadgets and household objects do things well beyond their intended use or specifications, and I can quickly learn how to operate equipment and software in my field of expertise."
Relationships
I am 100 percent heterosexual.
When asked about sex, I replied "I have done the deed ;-)."
I'm also into stuff that is none of your business, bud, unless I choose to tell you myself..
Right now I am single.
When I'm hawkish for a 'partner,' I avoid other goths at all costs.
My prefered type of relationship is monogamous.
Now you ask, am I available? Yes, I'm available, for a Primary relationship. The person I would be primarily attracted to is a ShyGoth: "Please don't look at me... oh, please..." *scuttles to the corner of the club* "I wish they wouldn't try to talk to me..." *pout* Unfortunately, I am dreadfully shy when it comes to conversing with other new goths that I encounter. Later, when I'm become more comfortable, I may come out of my shell... but, until then....
Sometimes I'll be attracted to a CorporateSlaveGoth.
Occassionally I'll be attracted to a DefeatistGoth.
Living Conditions
I live in a house.
One to three people sleep where I live (it may be not all of them pay rent).
I share my living space with my mother/step-mother, and father/step-father.
I live with 1 pets.
Location, or how you can hunt me down
I live 15 kilometres from the nearest city/town centre. (1km = 0.6214 miles)
My closest city/town is the capital city, my closest city/town is the biggest city in the state, and I live in the suburbs.
I am in Canada, in the toronto district.
