What is Mall Goth?
1.
People, generally between the ages of 13 and 17, that think they are uber cool because they shop exclusivly at Hot Topic. Run around the mall in black jnco's, band shirts, bad make-up, and even worse homemade peircings. Truely believe that they are goth as fuck. See also- "poser"
2.
These pricks hang outside of Hot Topic. Waiting for it to open so they can spend more of Mommy's and Daddy's money. They can be seen walking around the mall (obviously), looking down at the ground faking depression. sporting bad ICP make-up and wearing a Slipknot shirt. Laughing at Abercrombie, Cause obviously laughing and pointing at a clothing store is SOOO hardcore and rebellious. Age group for this abomination of a subculture is usually 12-15. Usually after 15 they grow up and realise how stupid they looked. But some people never grow up.

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."

One of the most digusting types of people that exist on this world. Their hair looks like it began dreading, and is dyed in various mix-matching colors.
They were eyeliner that is thincker than a racoon's black fur around their eyes. ERRRM, thats not attractive, sorry to break it to you.
Usually found around Hot Topic, they try things on, and wait for it to open every morning so they can talk about how harcore they are, and make fun of stores such as Abercrombie and Hollister California.
They associate themselves as being major fans of bands such as:
-Slipknot
-H.I.M
-or Insane Clown Posse (ICP)
Technically, they are a bunch of posers who come to their realization when they hit the age of 16. They look back to see how stupid they looked trying to actually look "HardCore"
Mall Goth Sarah: -Laughing- Abercrombie is go gay!!
Mall Goth Tim: I know! Lets hurry and ger to Hot Topic before it closes!
Current time, 2:00pm.
Hot Topic closes at 9:00pm
You do that Mall Goth Tim and Sarah..

some poser wanna bes that have interest in a store at a mall called "hot topic" due to the darkness of the lights and how the lights don't hurt their corneas(funny part of the eye). They do it because they say they want to be unique, these type of goths can be reconised by their:
1. Chains wrapped around certain parts of the body(usually the crotch and the breast)
2. Outrageous hairstyles, these include: mohawks longer than 7 inches, 75% of their hair shaven off(with the other 25% hanging on the one sideusually the front right side), extreme hair color(pink with black, red with black, etc.), or the whole head shaven in random areas of the head.
3. wear a lot of black, band t-shirts, levi's dipped in black dye, then having the sleeves torn off(they usually use knives, due to their weakness powered by their misery), Converse high tops with misc. patches, tears, and pins placed in certain parts of the shoe. write band names all over their backpacks, hands, and clothing...to be continued.
4. Like to wear black make-up and nail polish.
5. listen to junky music(not all of them are that bad though).
6. Pretend to commit suicide.
to be continued in volume two.
