mall goth

If all these kids are *fake* goth, what's *real* goth? Are they fake because they're young? Because they like bands that more than 3% of the population have heard of? Because they like to wear black?
Is it bad to experiment with styles and music, especially when you're a teenager? Who defines *true* and *fake* anyway?

Kid with Manson tshirt: I like Manson's music.

Adult with Manson tshirt: You're a poser, man. You don't know the true meaning of Manson. I am a true fan because I am over 17. You're a mall goth.
