"Nirvana's Dead!"

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Nero wore a toga, not a trenchcoat!

He scandalized Rome by going to Greece to recite poetry and act in plays.

Nero as in Keanu Reeves in the Matrix films.
I don't think the bloke in question had a classical education.

But his name was not Nero. It was Neo.

Oooops! :oops: :oops: :oops: :innocent:

Proves

a) It's been a while since I saw the film.
b) Loud rock music is bad for your hearing!

or

That I'm paranoid and only thought he was shouting Neo/Nero at me.

I can see the resemblance to Neo. That's not a bad thing to be called either. :wink: I'd say it's rather flattering.

I can't think of a specifc insult (apart from the obvious like "goth" and "ooooh i love black" and "witch"), but the best reaction I've ever had was last Halloween when i was in the off licence. A young couple came in with a child who started screaming when he saw me and had to be taken outside by his father. His mother said "don't worry, she doesn't always look like that dear", the thing was I hadn't even dressed up for Halloween.......... :roll:

Strange thread. Never got called anything really - might have to do with the fact I'm 6ft2 and look out of place anyway.

Yeah, me too. But I've been around students most of my life so I probably don't look out of place. And the height definitely helps. :D

I recently moved from a big town to a tiny village where everybody knows everybody and the appearance of a new neighbour is quite a big event.
So I was hanging my newly washed Sisters T-shirt and some (black) underwear in the garden a few days ago, when a teenage neighbour saw me and said "WOW. You've got a pentagram on your t-shirt" and ran away. Then the next day as I was going down the road two kids whispered and giggled as they passed me.
And there's these coloured lenses I wear. And the homeless cats that come to my garden for food. And the (black) baby goat I picked as my pet. And the loud music with the weird howling vocals coming out of the car as I pull over by the shop. :lol: That, all added, plus the fact that I didn't go to the local church on Easter, resulted in a funny incident. 2 nights ago the old neglected shed near my house was on fire. It wasn't a huge fire, but big enough for the proper firefighter brigade to come with their equipment to put it out.
So, all the local residents gathered to watch the show and to talk about the possible causes. Everybody agreed that it must have been an arson, and amongst the voices I heard: "It must've been the new ones, apparently the music they listen to is called black metal and they worship Satan." :eek:
:urff:
Should I laugh or cry?
