"Dude, we stopped for gas in the Goth Triangle."
A person who dresses goth, but only in cool weather.
Person one: Hey, why's she dressed all preppy? I thought she was a goth.
Person two: Nah, she's just a winter goth.
A "Goth" girl, usually between the ages of 20-23. These girls call themselves Goth, but do not listen to the music, or even acknowledge that Goth is a music-based subculture. They are usually metalheads, and think that listening to black metal, slam, and deathcore will make them considered more "Goth" by their followers. They throw around the word "elitist" like crazy. They argue that normal people do not respect Goths, but they themselves do not respect and appreciate how the Goth subculture originated.
I had to explain who Peter Murphy was to an Instagram Goth once.
A glam goth is a person who combines current goth styles with high street fashion. They switch baggy bondage trousers for high waisted leather shorts, and ripped tops for black sequined tops. They may still wear goth boots, or simply high heels. There dominant colour is still black, but they add a little sparkle to it.
People like-Dita Von teese may come under glam goth
But glam goth mainly covers people such as the rotley crue.
Goth: She's not a goth
Glam: She's not glam
Goth: what is she?
Glam: i think they call them..glam goths?
Goth: pshh as if that can ever happen
Glam Goth: shut up, i've seen Marilyn Manson, cradle of filth and nightwish live
Goth: :O
Glam: Yep..glam goths can happen

An individual calling themself "goth"/"gothic" that ,in actuality, is not involved in the subculture.
They listen to overhyped nu-metal/emo bands that they like for the simple fact that they believe it will make them 'cool',or more 'gothic'.
Usually between the ages of 12-17, they have a very blatant fashion sense; commonly wearing baggy, black pants with chains draped from them, spiked wristbands/collars, beanies, and especially Slipknot, HIM, or Korn tees.
Their chief source of fashion is Hot Topic (owned by Abercrombie & Fitch)
Some will don a depressed visage, never smile or speak, and others will don a moody, angry tone.
None of these 'goths' are generally 'gothic' at all. None of these people understand the origins, roots, or influences of the subculture, nor would they likely to be interested in any of its true aspects.
"You're indefinitely not involved in the gothic subculture; you would appear to be a mall goth."
"My friend only listens to HIM and Slipknot, and pretends to be depressed all the time; he's a mall goth."

A particular group of people that only dress and act gothic when it's popular to do so. Hot Topic goes through certain "phases" in their merchandising. Sometimes they cater to the punk kids. Sometimes they cater to the emo kids. And sometimes they cater to the goth kids. But the goth kids I make reference to are not bona-fide goth kids. They are only goth kids when it's their turn at Hot Topic. But when their turn ends and Hot Topic turns emo once again (they never cater to the metalheads, Hot Topic metal is trash) they may in fact be normal kids. dressing in normal clothes and acting like normal kids act.
"I liked Nightmare Before Christmas a lot more before the pop goths at Hot Topic wore it out and ruined it."
