Hi Emmaleen. I would like to thank you for your support and your suggestions. At the moment I am really thinking of going weekly since I have found so many people who are worth to be a Goth Goose winner! The future will show! As long as we are not free from all these stupid Goth Geese of the net this site will stay and continue its work!

I saw your page, and I think it's hysterical, especially this month's goose. For
one thing, the goose neglects to mention that anyone can be an "ordained
minister of the Universal Life church". I know, because I am one too, and all it
involves is going to the Church's site, and submitting a form. Keep up the good work.

LOVE this page, Marcus: kudos to you for making an effort to cleanse the
world of stupid little kids (who, by the way, cannot spell at all, like Mr.
GRIEB!), who give (real?) goths a bad rap.
You'll always have a link on my page! :)

I bet you are a cool and nice person in real life and (luckily) you seem to belong to the "more serious" people of the net.
Yours,
I am very, very happy to have your support! Well, I am a very tolerant guy but these annoying goth geese are soooooooo stupid that I really had to do this page! *smile*
I have seen your page! Well done! :-) Thank you very much for linking me on your page!

Subject: Man, i like the page, cept for a couple'a things.
First off, i really like what you have done. I am a goth and I dont
like these so called "super-goths" that roam around thinking that theyre
just all that. And another thing are these little, as you put it,
"spooky kids", i mean, i get into wearing makeup, i just like to get
freaky and have a good time, but i dont take it all that seriously. And
im not always so down and depressed, as a matter of fact, im a happy
person, do you have to be suicidal to be gothic? I dont think so.
But, now is where i disagree with you a bit. You and some of the ppl
who wrote in were putting down bands such as NIN, Marilyn Manson, and
Type O Negative. I like these bands, they arent all i listen to, but i
like them. You or maybe some of your friends may think that this makes
me a lamer, but personally i dont give a rat's ass. I like the music,
if you dont, then thats your thing, but dont put ppl down because they
like it, that makes you almost as bad as the before mentioned "super-goths".
Overall though, i like your page, i really like your page, and if i
find any of these goth pages that look like a load of shit, ill send em
yer way bro.
a liker of your page,
bobby
Yours,
First of all I am glad to hear that you enjoy and support my page. Hm, to be honest I HATE this fucking Type O Shit because I think that the whole band consists of a bunch of lamers. Besides they do not really have their own style as they always change to the current modern stuff. But on the other side I LOVE Marilyn Manson which does not make me a spooky kid yet! :-) I don't hate people 'coz they like MM (if I did I would have to hate me, too) but I just hate their outfit and their annoying way to present themselves in the net. And I hate the shit they tell people on their page.

Hello,
Well now....I'm going to have to say I dislike your page. I'm sorry.
You see...if...as you say....goth is what you feel on the inside, and not
what is portrayed on the outside then should you not be respecting others?
You don't know what they feel inside. What you're doing is VERY cruel to
these kids. Obviously they have increadibly low self esteem already...why
destroy them complety by mocking them? I tell you they pay for it, at
shool, walking down the street and so forth. They don't need this from
you. Really, I think maturity would be the issue here. Remeber..it's not
your apearance....it's how you FEEL my dear hypocrite *smile* Maybe you
should start living by your motto...it's a very good one.
Louise
Yours very truly,
Well, I have to say that I like your e-mail a lot!!! As it seems you are a very sensible person and I am glad to see/read that you have tried to think about my goth goose page seriously since your letter is the most reasonable reaction to my site so far.
Uhm, I don't think that the people who are portrayed on my page have a very low self esteem because otherwise they would not have published themselves in the net. You need a good self esteem to run around like they do. I agree with you when you say that it is cruel to deride shy people and believe me, I would never do something like this in real life - at least not in the public - but in my opinion people need to stand critique and that is the aim of my humble page. And above all, most of my goth geese look really stupid! But that's okay... I have stated that I am a tolerant person and I tolerate these guys but this doesn't mean that I have to accept/respect them. They can be what they want to be and tell what they want to tell (the more stupid the better for me *smile*) but after all I can't really imagine that they have to fight a hard life as you express (school, on streets...)

I love you! This page is a testament to the surviving true goth "fuck

it up, we need it! Also, I read the e-mail that Emily sent you(posted on
the e-mail page) and I really must say that she needs to be sodomized
Vlad Tepes style(hee hee). A sense of humor, Emily... GO GET ONE- it is
the thing that separates posers from the real thing(serious and goth
just don't mix). Well, enough of me, you have a link on my page as
well, by the way.
Kisses,

Yours,
Yeah, Lillith! You are absolutely right! And as you can see your nomination is worth to be published as the September goth goose. *smile* These fucking "goffs" are without any kind of humour. They take themselves seriously like nothing else in this world and they think they are unattainable. Well, luckily not all goths... There exist some who are cool and can laugh at themselves and I guess you belong to this group of cool people.

Subject: A Rather Large FUCK YOU
Umm.
i *could* ridicule your rather noticible paunch, or perhaps your "goth
as all fuck" glasses. Maybe the i-just-woke-up-and-shit-am-i-ugly
pictures you sent me belong on the 'spooky kid of the week' page? Naww,
think you just belong on the BUTT UGLY NET GOTHS page instead.
In either case, gale is a dearie and a half, I love her to pieces and
if, you quite honestly, have nothing better to do than sit around and
demean other people when you, yourself, don't have a whole lot to work
with, go take a nice long walk off a very short pier. Or maybe get out
from behind that computer more than once a decade or so. Work off that
gut of yours and then maybe, just *maybe* you'll be able to reach a
level at which you can criticize someone else. but *until* then, realize
that you're wasting entirely too much oxygen trying to sustain what you
consider life.
Oh, and if you're going to use frames, learn how to write them properly.
Perhaps you should reconsider your apparent lack of web design skills
before putting such a poorly done site up? And *nevermind* the
grammatical errors that completely scream from your narcissistic and
incredibly over blown me.html.
Maybe its just that i'm horribly protective of my friends, maybe its
just that you don't know any better, maybe its just that you're that
pathetic and have nothing better to do, maybe you're really a great guy
who loves 'nice girls' (who doesn't?) but i don't really care to find
out.

Yours,
Wow, I really wondered how much time would have to pass to get a hate letter like this one! Unfortunately I have to tell you, my dearest Emily, that you cannot insult me because I don't feel anything for you and so it doesn't bother me at all. Well, trying to offend me because of my English is just a sign for your lameness and lack of arguments since you know that it is not my native language. When your German will be as well as my English is you can write back to me and try again. I am happy that you hate me because hate is a positive feeling and is able to change the world. I hope you will find out how to use and control it well. By the way, just a little hint: Sell your 14" monitor, buy a 17" model, change your resolution from 640*480 to 1024*768 and frames look better.
I really enjoyed reading your funny letter, keep up the good work, Emily!
