Yeah, you're not actually all that scary

posted Thursday, 14 May 2009
I was walking along the other day and a goth-ish teenage boy was behind me. He was loudly growling out death metal (or whatever) lyrics while listening to his Walkman (yes, a tape walkman). I'm sure I was meant to look behind me in shock and fear, oooo, but I managed to contain myself. As he walked past, he thrashed his head around to the music and his trenchcoat-thing covered in skulls billowed behind him. The effect was ruined, however, by the fact that every time he spasmed his head, he had to push his glasses back up on his nose.
