suicide girls are goth? i thought they were emo. or, like, post-hardcore.

and, dudes, don't knock it before you try it -- i've never been, but
/apparently/ the goth cruise put on by the corpgoth folk
(gothcruise.com) is a blast; get a gaggle of drunken goths together in
a confined space, and suddenly all manner of craziness and smooching
abounds -- everyone feels like they have reason to talk to you because
you're in black. it's super friendly, i hear. a couple of boston folks
are tugging at me to go next year, although i think the crowd might be
too "old" (mid-twenties to mid-thirties) for me to get any hott goth
ack-shone, and i'd probably spend the whole time making a running
commentary on everyone else's age. i think the point of it, however,
is to be ridiculous, and i might just go if i can get a younger pal to
come along.
