I did pass on buying Gothic Beauty at Chicago Comics on Saturday
For the best, probably. There was a woman at the store staring at me when I was paying at the counter, which I'm going to chalk up to me buying Bitch rather than some other, more obvious reason.
This is before I walked out into the downpour. Again, for the best; using Wet Dread Fu in a comic store, probably not going to win me any fans among the staff and owners. Or innocent bystanders.
No, honest, Gothic Beauty Magazine. I don't have to make these things up. Hell, even when I do, I later find out that they actually exist anyway.
I had some point when I started this. . . oh, right, RazorBladeKisses:
Formed in February 2000, RazorBladeKisses is a self-styled Neo-Classical Goth band combining classical and baroque elements with heavier gothic metal and industrial influences, layered with strong visual imagery.
Think Ellis mentioned them at Die Puny Humans at some point, and I'm just going to blame credit him anyway. You can hear full samples, and buy songs for a shiny quarter apiece, at Mperia.
Yes, I bought A Death In the Dollhouse. Shut up.
Comments
Bit o' trivia: Mperia was invented by the same guy who made those banners for godless liberals you linked to a while back.
Me, actually.
Damning the man and fighting the power since 1978, baby.

Joshua, well, damn. Thanks for both of those.
You are, however, reinforcing my notion that I'm the least cool or interesting person on this site, and that I should just turn it over to the readers. . .
