Sheesh, goths

The persecution continues

"It could be dangerous for the couple and other passengers if a driver had to brake sharply while Miss Maltby was wearing the lead."

Eeek! "Clothes-lined!"

Already up

eh. he just needs to buy one of those vans with the dog grate in the back. problem solved.

Apologies for overgothing.

the daily mail readers comments are probably more liberal than they would be on the bbc have your say

"I hope they kill that little whore"

bit harsh. goths out, and that's as far as i'd go.

hahahahaha from that link:

Do you really need another £200 meal, porky George?
Millionaire singer George Michael appeared to be wearing his wealth on his girth as he left a London restaurant

The BBC's handy linked guide to goths is pretty awesome, especially when it gets to the "Mainstream Life Mundane" and "Pain and Death" sections.

xxxp OMG PLEASE MAY I SPEND THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON JUST READING ALL THOSE COMMENTS ?

"What idiots! What do they do when they go to work? Dress the same? Or don't they work? They would never get past a first stage interview dressed like this."

"More power to the driver! If thet can't behave in public then they should not be allowed to use public transport. Attention seekers both of them."

roffle @ "This couple sound pretty odd, but there is nothing wrong with being odd. and it certainly shouldn't prevent you using a bus."

That comment makes me proud to be British.

Also:

"This is absurd! She should have the collar on the lad."

"Would this driver do the same to a gang of 'hoodies'?"

"Note please that the plods threatened the couple with action when they tried to assert their right to use public transport. No doubt the Chief Constable of West Yorkshire will ponder this when young people decline to help his force at some future point."

That comment makes me proud to be British.

It is actually kind of great, isn't it?

"Would this driver do the same to a gang of 'hoodies'?"

These people look pleasant and fine.

"I hope they kill that little whore"

They need to moderate the BBC HYS a bit better.

Ravercrustygoths with spikes, chains, etc. armed with pitbulls make it onto Seattle buses (without paying) all the time.

Just saying', somewhere between Seattle and Bradford's metro, there needs to be a happy medium.

Not to mention the junkies, Jesus.

"Do your feet hurt? My feet sure do get numb from sitting on the bus all day, it's the only real drawback to sitting on the bus all day. Hey, what program are you in? Going to meeting? Oh, going to the Y? Does that Y have a pool?" and so on, unceasing until one of you GETS OFF THE BUS. God.

junkies are not goth. goths have no real problems.

The Daily Mail is a mad paper, who reads it (apart from us).

Madonna reveals her taut, smooth facial skin... shame about the Nora Batty legs

Fabulous at 45: Demi Moore strips off to pose in a skimpy white bikini

The day Carla Bruni opened the door to me topless

Menawhile back to the comments...

"The couple, who live on benefits in a council house and plan to start a family, have been friends for years."

Does this mean that they are unemployed, living in free housing and getting welfare benefits? If they start a family, will they get addition benefits? Sounds like a good deal to me!

Mike, you're completely welcome to come over and live on benefits in Bradford, I don't know Anaheim, California myself but I'm sure it's very similar... I'm sure you'd love it here, especially the "free housing" which is always the nicest apartments in the bestest parts of town.

better than working though, eh!

She'd get a few odd looks from me for wearing a vest top in January in Bradford, brrrrrrrr...

My wife has been walking me around the streets of Cardiff on a lead for ten years and we never have any problems. The old people love it and bus drivers too.

Come on, own up.

Remember on that "types of nerds" thread, when I said there were sex nerds, usually in a BDSMy way? This is what I was talking about

Come on, own up.

I know this dude, generated mild lols earlier today

"welfare" and "Anaheim" are two words that just don't work in the same sentence.

Hi her boyfriend makes her meals and cleans the house. It might be crazy but it works.

"Remember, you can capture, tame, and leash the wildflower soul of night's evil nymph, but you can't expect it to do housework"

Dishpan petals.

Nabisco, you're getting pretty seriously creepy on this thread.

maybe verging into TMI territory.

???

Are you mixing me up with Trayce or something?

I'm pretty sure I could pick you two apart in a line-up, so no.

I am just going to remain confused, then

<i>What a pair of plonkers!

dont mind ian he's been a bit off. that goth girl can be described as a "butter face."

i think she has a pretty face!

Are you mixing me up with Trayce or something?

Dude, what in the fucking fuck?

this is not worth getting upset over. let's just all look at the funny picture

His coat's kind of nice. Would be a bit hot in summer tho.

The whole Tracer/Trayce joke upthread...?

Metahumor is a dangerous thing in THE WRONG HANDS....

You sure? I assumed it was a tired goth dig (which coming from N was a bit suprising, hence my indignation. Also, fuck I'm sick of it. And in a foul mood).

goth digs are way less tired than being a goth.

Goff digs never get tired. If only you could say as much for the dye-jobs -- his is awful.

Aww, crap, Trayce -- that was not intended as a dig at all!

happy haters

All that needed to be said about this, really.

S'ok Nabisco :) I'm in a pretty down mood for entirely unrelated reasons so don't mind me.

lost your leash?

Daddy issues.

All that needed to be said about goth chicks, really.

many many xposts...

I don't think she is on the dole. Isn't she a student?

i think she is doing a GNVQ in fashion design

Didn't we have an Oldmisery posting here?

my correction, it was Miss Misery

And we in the US have this little treat.

she's pretty.

i'd liek to think if i got 7 million and a few hours head start i wouldn't be caught?

I have a feeling you can already see in her features the lipless, overplucked crone she's going to age into. That oughta take about five years.

In jail.

Why would anybody want to go on the run with their mom? Did they need someone to do their laundry?

Friends of Ms. Boyd and Mr. Dillon say they never drank alcohol, took drugs or smoked, preferring books, movies, music and role-playing games for entertainment.

SEE THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN PEOPLE DON'T DRINK ALCOHOL OR TAKE DRUGS!

BAN BOOKS MOVIES AND MUSIC

BAN MOMS!

BAN D&D

Those guys aren't goths.

why the fuck is "goth" part of the headline?

do you know of a non-goth who doesn't drink or take drugs steal $7 million

to be perfectly honest, and I hope this does not make me uncool, I DON'T KNOW ANYONE AT ALL LIKE THAT EVER

"Big Theft Ends in Shackles for a Young Hillbilly Couple"

Playing D&D and reading vampire novels doesn't make you a goth. This was probably some LARP fantasy that spiralled into reality - "I am a thief +5 intellect woo"

Playing D&D and reading vampire novels doesn't make you a goth.

otm, everybody knows that wearing a trenchcoat and shooting people makes you a goth. Or... wait, is that right?

Did they need someone to do their laundry?

Familial devotion means so little in this cruel world!

he didn't roll on his 10+ on his D12 :(((
