Mar. 12th, 2005 05:00 pmI saw two goth kids while I was at the grocery.
Notable if only because I don't see very many in the 'burbs, and because they were so well turned out - vests and platform-buckled boots and careful coordination (such as it is, everything being black).
I almost stopped one of them to ask him where he got his boots, but ultimately refrained. I remembered that to anyone under 18 I surely appear to be mad old bat and my expressing interest in his footwear would have destroyed his sartorial self-confidence for life (or, at least, until college) :P
I'm the "grownup" now. That CRACKS me up!
