I originally wrote this when my daughter was starting middle school. She has just graduated from middle school and is already “attending” high school (online course) even before the official year begins. So, time for a reprise:
- Goths embrace pain and suffering. Hurt my daughter and I will embrace yours.
- Tears are nothing to be ashamed of. Make my daughter cry and I will demonstrate this by making you cry.
- While black is always in fashion, pants hanging around your knees are not. If you insist on this fashion faux-pas I will use my staple gun to give you a nice set of piercings to hold up your trousers.
- I hang out in graveyards for fun. Think about it.
- Goths flirt with death all the time. Touch my daughter inappropriately and I will flirt with yours.
- I know every dark, secluded spot in the city where no one could hear someone scream in agony until their voice is gone.
- Black doesn’t show bloodstains.
- I have a fascination with psychopaths. Some of my best friends are psychopaths.
- Most of my best friends are psychopaths.
- Aw, hell, all of my best friends are psychopaths.
I never did that. I just sat, quietly sharpening my knives and smiling at them, Well, it was a kinda crazy smile.
