    i have heard rumours that the government are going to send out a survey for all the teens to fill in about what music they like and what clothes they where. then apparantly they will catorgorise people (e.g. townies, goths, etc) i think labelling is putting people down. it really bugs me that cos im kinda a goth im 'wierd' and 'not normal'. who has he right to say someone isnt normal cos of how they dress or what they wear... many of my friends thought i was wierd when they first met me but now they know me they respect me for who i am. people who judge others are twonks!!!!!!!!! really!!
    what are your opinions??

    LOL. The government are trying to classify teens in groups of "punks", "goths", "preps", "jocks", "townies", etc. That's the lamest thing I've ever heard.

    And you should really read the gothic thread. ;)

    I want to fill out the survey wrong so I get labeled as a 40-year-old Puerto Rican woman who's 78.3 pounds overweight and Gothic with preppy clothes and suicidal tendancies.

    Are you serious? Thats one of the stupidest things I ever heard. No doubt Bush brought up the idea. What will come out of that, I mean what's the point? They're gonna give free therapy to people? :p If they plan to do this so they know where to set up new Hot Topic stores I'm all for it but otherwise...

    Are you gullible? Yes.

    Come on, that's absolutely preposterous. You'd think the government has much more important things to do, such as attempting to rig themselves another election.

    Anyway, a twonk is a nicer way of saying twat =)

    anyway, this kinda stuff is covered in the gothic thread like Mark said.
