A "Goth" is, loosely speaking, one who decides to separate from the mainstream culture for varying reasons (such as dissatisfaction with modern society, a will to be different, or just a liking to the styles whether it be music or visual or social).
Goths are not defined as someone who slashes their own wrists or sets fires to schools, that is what is called a masochist, vandal or sadist. A Goth, in modern society, is merely a lifestyle.
Although their image and demeanor consistently appears cold and reclusive, this is but a shell and Goths are more commonly found to be nicer than the 'average' stranger, due to their tendency to have intellectual/educated backgrounds, and artistic divulgences including the visual arts and musical talents.
A 'pure' Goth epitomizes beauty not in the way that you would say "wowzers she is A BEAUTY", but in the way that the ideal Goth strives for clear skin and pure complexion; the dark hair and garb serves to enhance the fair complexion of pure skin.
People carrying "Gothic" qualities does not relate whatsoever to their personality and/or attitudes towards other people, rather, their attitudes towards the many forms of art, community, and individuality.

As you can probably tell by now, I myself am a Goth. And a Christian (strange combination you say? *shrugs*). I don't cut myself, I don't swear, I don't think offensively of other people of all shapes and sizes (and colours et cetera) but I strive to be Me in a world where everyone and everything is just a copy of a copy of a copy..
There is freedom of speech, there is freedom of personality, and a natural Goth embraces the freedom of image.

Crack captured in paper form. Actually, the original collectible trading card game, originally released in 1993, still going strong today. Made by Richard Garfield, and published by Wizards of the Coast. Two or more players duel each other using various creatures, spells, and artifacts. The object is to bring each other players life total down to 0 in order to win. This can be accomplished in many ways. It's up to you to decide how to do it. Seeing how over 40 expansion sets have been released over the years, there are almost endless possibilities.
Often ridiculed/stereotyped by chads, along with D&D, Star Wars, and World of Warcraft as the epitome of geekdom. On the contrary, it is known to be played by anyone, and most gamers I've met don't fall into the stereotypes, and in fact, do have a life, have other interests, get laid, etc. Only people with no life like to make fun of people who play games like these. Irony at it's finest.
