Yeah, I must be a Neo-Nazi.

ASOD has more talent then any person named "Chingy", "50 Cent", "Ja Rule", and "Gay Z". What is sad is that Armenians are part of pop-culture, but in actuality think they are part of counter-culture. They have become a hand job of corperate America and they do not even realize it.

haha mouse i agree.. my stupid neighbor used to think he was a rockstar... him and his lil twitty friends would "try" to play some music, but all the achieved was giving me a huge headache... leave the rock for the rockers--i think we armenians try too hard at fitting in and being somethign we're not, thats why we adapt to other people's was waay too soon--

i mean i loev rock music too, i listen to it and enjoy it, but i dont dress up like a punk rocker and roam around LA and go dye y hair fuschia pink.... but anyway i dont want to be too critical, thats just my opinion- i know im armenian and i cant help the fact that i liek in the US and whether i liek it or not ive adapted dmany ways of american ilfe, but theres a limit to what you adapt to and what you see as a part of your identity and keep...

I don’t think that being a rock star or trying to be one, makes you any less of an Armenian. So what are Armenians supposed to do…hold back from everything, thinking, “oh, we’re Armenians, we can’t do that”..?

Why do we need to criticize other Armenians who are doing something, or anything, outside the imaginary box of being Armenian?

Whether it be being too ‘free’, being too ‘goth’ trying to be a rock star, porn star, pop star. These aren’t cultural; these have to do more with the person’s character, and interests. So it does not make them any less of an Armenian, and it does not make them any more pathetic, or less pathetic than someone of any other culture who has the same interests, or goals.


Stop labeling everything as cultural diminishment.




O.k, let's scratch the porn star part.

I am to guess you feel really noble and progressive for saying that, don't you?

Yes,I do...
Since all Armenians seem to be doing lately is criticizing other Armenians.


Shut up already.

Armo goths are a joke, well from what I see. I myself am a atheist and have been for a while. But im kind lost.. by goth do you mean the hot topic kids at the malls Really how anti-christ is it to shop at a mall.

I remember a few weeks before school ended I Cousin took a pic of me pissing on the bible and he showed it to the goth kids around here. They were pretty shocked and afaid of me, being goth is lame..stating that you hate someone and want to devote your life to it is nothing but a trend.

Well said..

As for the original question. I've seen a lot of goths but not to many of them being armo. And why the hell would someone dress in all black in the summer. Doesn't it get hot?

well the t-shirt companies arnt a fan of white shirt as i am

Actually, Goth and Satanic are two totally different things.. but the thing they do have in common is complete B.S.. I've known lots of Goth through out my life and even became part of that life style for a little while so no one call tell me xxxx about it being a sub-culture that I just don't understand.. it's bullxxxx, 100% no question about it. Being Goth is a way of being an unconformist? of not fitting in? of being anri-establishment? I dunno, what they wear seems more like a uniform to me than what the Army makes their people wear. All they're saying is "notice us, but don't get too close" and they've somehow built a whole "sub culture" around that... which is complete B.S.

Well that's just sad. Not the part about being an atheist... that's fine and your choice and there's nothing wrong with saying "You know, I don't think that invisible guy in the sky actually exists" but there's no honor or dignity in pissing on a bible no matter how you look at it or come at it with the freedom of expression angle. This is coming from a dripping wet liberal. There's nothing cool or statement-making about pissing on a bible, that's simply adolecent behavior towards a subject they don't like. Makes about as much sense as an abused kid writing his father's name on a piece of paper, only to tear that piece of paper in half, then get a new piece of paper and repeat it all over again, thinking he's getting some sort of aggression out, or saying "hey look, I don't listen to you anymore, neener, neener, neener!" I honestly thought we were past this post-marilyn manson bible bashing is cool syndrome. There are so many more, mature ways to show your beef with the holy scriptures.

And yes, even I admit I've been talking about this a little too long for claiming that it's just a stupid act. But seriously, it frustrates me to see people doing things like this and thinking "it's cool"... I'm all for offending people, as long as your making a point with it, but this kind of act is JUST for the sake of offending and some morbid self pleasure and not really teching anyone else about YOUR beliefs or WHY you think disrespecting the bible is right. Again, aren't we older than this yet?
