Goths do not become old farts. Goths become elder goths... This, contrary to the popular beliefs of the gothling, is a move up in the world... It's a well known fact, amongst the older, more experienced, types that gothique improves with age... mellows... ripens... becomes more and more rich and full bodied as the years pass. The darkness becomes more familiar... more pleasurable... eventually... you become a part of it and it a part of you. Goth begins to pervade your senses and your life. You lose the need to question... to pose... all the little silly things that consume the minds and lives of the young ones... the initiates. If you're lucky... you too will know the pleasures of growing old in darkness.
