Something I find pretty entertaining about this lifestyle is all the negative attention people give you.
Even thought it's not really about that, it's still kind of funny to see the people stearing away young children and going: No, honey, we have to go THIS way.
*buy why momma, what's wrong
See, the little kids don't mind how we choose to look, can't people get it through their heads that just because of how we dress, doesn't mean we're bad people?

And it's not even how some of us dress.
It's how some of us act and understand things. In other words: our mindset.
My parents can get upset because they see something one way, then I do, and I'm using all this "negative logic" to do so. I'm like wtf. Now THINKING is bad too???

Well, Negative attention is never a good thing. But then, each person has her own definition of "Negative". Whereas mine includes large sticks and greasy hairdos.^^
Children staring? That passes for "recognition" and that's "Fun" ^^

Sometimes it annoys me or makes me pity the person behind it. Other times, usually when I'm in a bad mood, I do find it funny. But actually what I like better is the reverse. I work at L. L. Bean, and I am the only person on day shift that dresses this way, all my coworkers are generally in their 40s and up. So when I walk by them and smile, or hold a door open for them, or do anything nice, they give me the most puzzled looks. I like to think I've changed their bias a bit, that's always good. Helps people to be more tolerant.

Helps people to be more tolerant. Yea i love that too, I like to think that I made someone think twice the next time they see a person in a trenchcoat an combat boots. It's a good feeling - like maybe the next time they see a person like that - they'll think better of them and not look down on them so much, maybe even give them a smile - which in turn can truly - i've learned from my own expeirences - make someones day a lot better.

I find it amusing to take people out of their comfort zone of nice, Abercrombie and American Eagle and all that kinds of store clothes, and to show them that there ARE people out there who can be *gasp!* different!? =O
It only annoys me when people start asking me stupid questions, like, "Are you gonna suck my blood!?" and "Are you gonna cast a spell on me!?" rolleyes That just pisses me off to no end. But taking people out of their comfort zones and thrusting them into the light of a subculture is good, I think. Sometimes people need to be forcibly loosened up to other ways of life, or else they'll never do it on their own.
EDIT: of course what REALLY gets people is the random cosplay =D that I can see why I get looks. And I find it hilarious.

Yea my uncle will sit there and ask me stupid questions like:
Why black, why not green or orange?
It's like ... shutup an leave me alone.
Of course I can never say what I really wanna say because my mom is always standing right next to me an she likes her brother. Besides that, I probly get hit an grounded so I mean, I'll say it to myself. Gets annoying though having to do that for the past 12 million times. But hey, outta respect for the family name ... I suppose I'll behave
