Do ya fit the bill?

[Lord Charlemain Richards]

This these would apply to everyone I know, well, everyone worth speaking with, most of whom aren't goth. These seem to have much more with being cultured than goth.
Nihilism involves skepticism to the point of questioning existance (something that usually happens at three in the morning), generally including yourself, whereas existentialism... oh, I knew it this morning... invovles the belief we are alone in the universe (unless I am mistaken) and has been used as a one-word agruement for athetism.  

[Veruniel]

According to this list, practically everyone with a PhD is gothic.  

[Disease of the Flesh]

This is one of the best I've ever seen. I got 16 out of 17. I don't fear mediocrity. I don't even care about it.  

[Rainbow Shrapnel]

I fit all of those...  

[Isobel Bellamy]

Hanvn't we had this around already?...hmmmm

I fit just about all of them, and I'm a self-confessed metal-head.....

Almost right: nihilism is the need to deny and rebuild everything because of the beleif that everything is wrong and must be built again form the ground up....
Existentialism is the questioning of everything around you.....The belief that all must be questioned.
Nihilism was first thought of as a form of atheism, but in realty is much more than that..........
