Explanation: 'Goth' is the name of a subculture/aesthetic which is sometimes fetishized in the modern day.

'Goth' is also the name of a group of Germanic tribes in Late Antiquity whose warriors ravaged the Roman Empire.

Be careful what you wish for!

I'd be scared too. Because one of us traveled through time for more than a thousand years.

Other than that, where do I sign up?

I identify with Rome, for I too want to be destroyed by goths.

Goth women can be scary sometimes. When they have those really thin eyebrows and shaved heads but sideburns.
