huh? I could think of some names to call those two but goth is not one of them.

In related news, who wants their kids to grow up goth?

Vampires?

Gwen and Gavin, you retard. didn't you read the headline? oh, right, you only wrote the motherf***er.

Well, if you force the kid to be goth at an early age, that means an earlier suicide which means money saved on school.

They have a cunning plan.

Given that kids tend to rebel in their teenage years, this one will probably end up some happy, well-adjusted, preppy-type that attends Fellowship of Christian Athletes meetings.

Dumbasses. Don't they know that by the time their kid grows up the new 'rebellious' color for teenagers will be Magenta?

I wouldn't mind goth kids.
However, they are doing it wrong.
The best way to get goth kids is to force them into sports and cheer leading, listen to country music, and insist the attend a Christian church of some kind.

Try and raise your kid in a black room to be goth and they will rebel and become neocon evangelical football playing conformists.

/as opposed to a cookie cutter goth non-conformist conformist.

I want to kill Gwen Stefani. This only assures me that my decision is sound.

This. It's called "rebellion", and every child does it.

Subby: "In related news, who wants their kids to grow up goth?"

I do... it'd drive the Ex bonkers, and I'd have someone to share all my Bauhaus and Joy Division CDs with.

Can't say I know who Gavin Rossdale is, but I've know who Gwen Stefani is since her days with No Doubt, and I've never known her to be goth.

Nowhere does subby imply she is goth. In fact, he assures us the parents won't and indeed cannot transfer goth genes.

So, given her so-called penchant for all things Japanese, her kid (boy or girl) is going to end up looking like this:

I see that one went way over your head. Does this happen often?

Which is probably what they really want, just they're too chicken to tell everyone.

These people would like to have a word with subby.

BTW, according to the NYT, steampunk is the new Goth. Not quite sure of that assessment, but the aesthetic is pretty cool.

I hope their kid turns into an Evangelical Christian

In future news, Gwen and Gavin are murdered by offspring for totally farking with child's mind.

Wow nothing says I'm fighting conformity than your parents painting your room black and pushing you into goth.

I await the day when my daughter outgrows pink stuff and turns to the dark side.

I bet Gavin is the most popular employee at the Walmart he works at.

Why do so many people think goth has some association with nonconformity? You know, south park is not the only means available for information on other subcultures.

My interpretation is that conformity is irrelevant. An intelligent goth will conform when society has made choices that are reasonable and aesthetically pleasing. Otherwise, he will not. There is no specific intent to conform or not. Or at least, there shouldn't be.

 
I'm Not from Here [TotalFark] 2008-06-12 10:58:21 AM  
Hmm. I saw Gwen Stefani in the headline, stopped reading and only came for the pics (of her - not freaky goth kids).

I leave disappointed.

 
wood 2008-06-12 02:07:42 PM  
if this picture doesn't say "goth" then I don't know what goth is.

Steampunk.

Word one on the list of words I could go the rest of my life never hearing again and be perfectly fine.

shouldn't they have their kid make his own fad instead of forcing him to conform to some already played out one?

Like, the diapers on my head fad...
Or Jesus on my man-thong fad...
Or

 
mehwe 2008-06-12 07:58:35 PM  
LOL,

I know most boys think she's hawt, but sometimes crazy cancels out the hawt.

Gwen Stefani is effin SCARY

I have a 6yr old. I don't care if she's goth, preppy, emo etc as long as she's being herself and not hurting anyone.

This is one of those, "Let's say silly things and get the press to print them," games that many celebrites play from time to time.
