Why is it that emo, goth, or really anyone who dresses in lots of black and has dyed hair, lots of piercings and tattoos, etc. always stereotyped as standoffish, broody, or unpleasant to socialize with? The workers at hot topic, Spencer’s, and other people who fit the above description are honestly some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. They’re nicer and friendlier employees than a lot of employees I’ve seen at Walmart, McDonald’s, etc.
