Goth
You are NOT Goth Just Because You Wear Black You Are NOT Goth Just Because You Like Horror Movies You Are NOT Goth Just Because You Are Depressed You Are NOT Goth Just Because You Think It Looks Neat You Are NOT Goth Just Because You Listen To Metal (which isn't real goth music by the way) You Are NOT Goth Just Because You Like Blood You Are NOT Goth Because You "cut yourself" You Are NOT Goth Because You Wear Tripp Jeans You Are NOT Goth Because "love " Hot Topic A True Goth isn't defined by their look but by their music. I am going to try to put this into my own words as much as possible because I am tired of "trendy teens" Calling themselves goth and giving us a bad name. Lets start at the early goth first. The Gothic Romanticism. Gothic was a type of architecture as i;m sure most of you are well aware. The ruins of the Gothic architecture became to symbolize the inevitable decay and collapse of human creations. This is where Gothic Literature stemmed from. The writings were meant to produce the same feel of emotions as the Gothic architecture for lack of better word. Think of Edgar Allan Poe and how his writing mostly stood for the collapse of the human psyche. See where this ties together? This is where the Victorian Goth style also comes from. Now Fast forward a few hundred years to the most recent and well know revival of goth in the 70's. First Generation Goth- 1979-1985 this derived from post-punk with the most influential bands of this time being Siouxsie and the Banshees, Christian Death, Bauhaus, and sisters of mercy. These are just a few of the many bands where goth music has derived from. If the music doesn't have some kind of resemblance to this kind of music it is NOT goth. Metal is NOT goth. I love metal but please don't confuse it with goth. So all you COF fans out there..hate to tell you this but they aren't goth. They are Black Metal and Marilyn Manson? Nope. He is just EBM. Nothing more and nothing less. Now Second Generation goth- 1985-1995 By now the post-punk era was starting to give way to some newer music styles such as the blending of industrial with Gothic themes as seen in such bands like Skinny Puppy and Depeche Mode. Now Here We are. Third Generation 1995-present The Gothic aesthetic has become popular due to bands such as HIM, Marilyn Manson, Within Temptation, whose music is nowhere near being Gothic but because of their looks they have become associated with that genre much to the chagrin of true goths everywhere. Hot topic also helped to make this culture mainstream and breeding mall goths who probably have never even heard of Siouxsie Sioux. In order to be a "true goth" you have to love true Gothic music. And it should be a good majority of what you listen too. Liking one song by switchblade symphony and then listening to nothing but nightwish and within temptation won't make you a goth, no mater how much make-up or hair gel you are wearing. So please learn about a culture before you try to embrace it and end up embarrassing yourself and others. And try listening to some old school Goth/Punk Siouxise and the Banshees, and the Cure are always good start.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
Was purchased as a gift . Very well received . Easy ordering . Arrived earlier than predicted.excellent quality. Would recommend to friends and family and will definitely order again in the future.
The mug I ordered came in perfect shape In a box obviously designed for safe shipping. Quality is beautiful and is exactly as described. Thank you!
ABSOLUTE ART WORK!!!!! This is literally the best mug in the world. My entire family has one (wife, 2 daughters, and 3 sons). I would definitely recommend and place it as a mounoment.
Hilarious, I couldn't help but burst out loud in laughter.... !!!
It understands me. this mug has treated me better than any girl i've ever dated, and every bro i've chilled in the same bed with. we've been though thick and thin, but mostly thicc. i used to be depressed, but now this mug holds my existential fears so i dont need to carry them with me. i even wrote a song about my mug: mary had a little mug, e-i-e-i-o how i wonder what you are, floppy dongs near and far, cherri had a real thicc mug, e-i-e-i-despaci-to
Great mug, 100% recommend it for all family members! Best gift I’ve ever received!!!
It was so easy to order - and I could play with the syntax of the definition to get it just right. All of this was easy. And quite soon it arrived and is perfect.
Love it!! So true!!
I love 💕 mugs ☘️! These are so lovable. Thanks! I love the urban dictionary writers too.
The printing, the Word and it's definition -- were not quite what I expected. And the same word definition ordered on two different mugs, and yet each was described / defined differently.
Augustine would love the mis-spelling It should be Augustine's Laws. A great book - every engineer, programmer, project and programme manager should read. Based on experience of Defence and Space projects, and with lots of real data to support the tongue-in-cheek advice, it really has more value than all the System Engineering books I've never read. Can't wait to get a mug.
Sickm8 it was blooming gr8 for me GF. She bloody loved it. Onya!!!! ;)

very good product, i drink my coffee out of it every single morning. a tiny little itty bitty problem i have with it though, is that every time i drink anything except for coffee out of this mug it barrates me for having bad taste. makes me very sad, honestly. i didnt know cups could talk, but appearently i have been proven wrong. i would really appreciate it if you could start double checking if your cups are possesed by melicous spirts who like to insult you! except for that, great product!!
The workmanship of the product was excellent, and packaging for your delivery of this fragile item, a coffee mug, was appropriately safe. Nice job all around. Thank you.
It's the best mug in the history of mugs.
love it
excellent customer service. i gave the wrong address and they got it here quick.
This was easy to order although I wish the preview pics showed the next on both sides once you finish customizing. But I appreciated that if the text doesn't fit they email you and ask what you want it to say. Came out great and I can't wait to give it as a gift
it was frickin good mug i liked it it was good I have never thought of myself as someone who drinks from mugs. After I drank from this mug, I thought of myself as a mug-drinker. It was magical. My entire life changed. I didn't know what to do with myself anymore. How do you follow up a lifestyle change? I went on a long walk. About 67 miles. Once I got to the Walgreen's I realized I could've just drove. But I didn't. I'm no quitter. Not with this mug. This mug gives me power, perseverance. You want this mug. Trust me. You want this mug.
