goth
--The words Goth and Gothic have had many, largely unrelated meanings: the name of the Germanic Visigoth tribes that overthrew the Roman Empire. From this source arose the concept of a Goth as an uncivilized person, a barbarian. 4 --a style of architecture in Western Europe which was popular from the 12th to the 16th century. --a style of horror/mystery literature that is dark, eerie and gloomy. --Goth, as a modern movement, started as one component of the punk rock scene. As the latter faded, Goth survived by creating its own subculture. --The first use of the term Goth in its present meaning was on a British Broadcasting Commission (BBC) TV program. Anthony H. Wilson, manager of Joy Division described the band as Gothic compared with the pop mainstream. The name stuck. --Their use of black clothing was originally "something of a backlash to the colorful disco music of the seventies." 5 It also stuck. --The movement first became established in the Batcave, a nightclub in London, England, in the early 1980's. 3 --Spreading to the U.S., it first became popular in California. --Goth is featured in The Crow horror movies (1994, 1996). Other Gothic movies are the original Nosferatu, the color remake Nosferatu the Vampyre, and the Cabinet of Doctor Caligari. --Popular music bands are the Bauhaus, Siouxsie and the Banshees, the Sisters of Mercy, Dead Can Dance, and many others. ***Stereotypes: People have accused or described Goths as being: Depressed, Unusually bigoted, Violent, Suicidal, Involved in illegal drugs, Vampires or believe themselves to be vampires, Sado-masochists, Satanists, Musicians, painters, and other artists, Computer programmers (although there seem to be a lot of them) Wearers of black (some wear white and gunmetal), Dyers of their hair, Users of white makeup. 4
The Urban Dictionary Mug
Came out just as described! Had the full definition. Very pleased!
Perfect coffee cup for a hockey fan. Great conversation starter.
As always, these are well made mugs that stand up to most anything. And they make perfect gifts (in this case for dirty-minded members of a wedding party). I’m extremely pleased.
I liked the photo on your website and so I ordered the mug. You sent it right away, and it looks great!
It arrived three weeks after ordering but given the holiday rush and inability of shipping to keep on schedule arrived late but was perfect little gift from me to my wife for her morning coffee with her "nickname" on the mug.
Arrived on time. Great packaging. Communication with vendor was top-notch. High quality item.
Item came at appropriate time in good condition.
Just what I expected. Merchandise looked just like it did online. Showed my friends and even they loved the cup! Plan on ordering more merchandise from you guys. Thanks. KLDS
so happy you were able to put my unique word "Obergrossescheinehund" onto the new yellow mug. The yellow mug and black print make it easy for the words to be seen.
As always, a great gift.
Was very happy with the customer service team when I had a question. They responded to my email quickly. The mug looks really cool, makes me laugh every time I use it and high quality. I’m in love with it. Thanks!
Wanted to try these guys out to see if they delivered and how it'd go. Went great. Got two mugs within 7 days, unharmed, printed well. THANK YOU
Quick delivery, easy ordering, unique and special gift!
Quality and style are outstanding relative to price point.
The mug I ordered was exactly as described on the site. The shipping was fast as well. I will buy from these people again.
