Perky Goths?

Like Wednesday Addams in the Addams Family Values movie stating "I'm not perky, but I want to be."

Oh I love those Addams Family movies!!

Hmmm. A culture that fuses Love and Death? I'm more aware of the death part (that's what gets hyped in the media) - the Love part is new to me. Love and Death are such core, critical issues in human existance that it's hard not to think of them in terms of belief systems or religion or philosophy.

It sounds like it's (being a Goth today) almost just a fashion style based on a very, very, very, retro theme.

This is fascinating; my normal tendancy would be to ask if Love is defined any differently than for non-Goths, if Death is seen as an end or a beginning, by "fusing" do you mean giving equal importance or are you saying there's some sort of relationship between Love and Death, and several other deep questions. However, it also sounds like maybe the ones I should ask those questions to are the Romantics. I suspect they're all dead now.

I'm gonna have to think about this for a little while.

Before they made me they broke the mold!
