no, wait I don't really know what Sparke Goth is.

original text:

Found this floating around the internet. I'd guess it's over 10 yrs old bc it mentions Emo, but I thought Sparkle Goth was a kinda newer thing?

And every fucking one of them is the kindest person once you get to know them.

I had to Google sparkle goth, and now I still don't know what it is.

Emo was more than ten years ago, ten years ago was 2016.

I'm not sure that Sparkle Goth was ever a thing to the same extent as the others though.

oooh you're right... I was in grad school when Emo was happening... I remember someone trying to start a conversation with me about goth vs emo and I was like: I'm trying to finish school, I don't have time for that kinda thing.... lel... I mean I thought MCR's second album was pretty awesome but that's about it....

Is "Sparkle Goth" the same as "Glitter Goth"? That's been a thing for a long time.

I think so 👍
