Small Minds

THIS IS WHAT SOMEONE WROTE ABOUT MY SITE: "Sites like this scare the beep out of me. What is it about the goth scene that seems to attract this sort of must-promote-myself-to-death mentality? Really. I don't get it. Why even have a website when the whole focus seems to be putting up other people's link buttons? Oh, I know. So you can also put up links to Top Whatever Sites lists with names like Super Dark Angsty Elite of Bloody Tears and Mopey Velvet and have people vote for you, so you can be fully secure in your position as Black-Garbed Gothy Goddess of the Universe. Sheesh. Am working on Buffy fic. Post-Gift Buffy fic, at that. I suck".

For the first time,someone trashed my site. A journal site trough Livejournal linked my site and wrote about it. I was supposed to be a Goth, wannabe Dead Girl from one of those stupid American TV series called Buffed or Biffy. Fu*k all those American trash TV series, we don't want them over here! The funny thing is that this person's site is called My Dark Star, now I don't know if that's Goth or not? Anyway, those things are childish, I would never trough trash at anyone's site. I wasn't even like that when I was fifteen. If you don't like it, it's just better to leave. Everyone have a different taste, different opinion about things, the wrong thing however is to judge people you've never met and talked to. I guess these things happen to a lot of people that dare to cut away from the mainstream. So I have those link buttons on here, if you click them you will find a lot of different types of sites. There are three "scary" Goth links on here, two of them are to pages within the Gothic Rose site. I've always liked that site, because it didn't contain all that freaky pornography or other disturbing elements, it contains links to a lot of good artistic sites, that I visit a lot. I've found myself to like a lot of the artistic sides of the Gothic subculture, not the culture or necessarily the people...

I think it's a little funny that someone actually can find my site or myself scary, I find it amusing... Can you believe I've never even seen the Buffed TV series? I don't want to link the site that promoted me in a nasty way, It was just too scary in my opinion, I'm not even sure if I dare to go to bed now... Last but not least, I would like to write more about these issues, but right now I have to get some sleep. I wrote an entry some time ago, on the Goth subject.

Great minds discuss ideas;
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.
