There must be several of us Laurels on this list. But I got my Laurel so
long ago that they didn't give them specific names, so mine's generic.

I just MAKE STUFF.
Some, I wear (modern, 19thC, SCA, whenever). Some, I print (antique
printing press). Some, I read (bookbinding). Some, I wash with (soap).
Some, I eat (canning, jams/jellies).
Make more stuff. Good!
Just wear the right one, don't eat the soap, and wash up after eating

The running joke is Steampunk is what happens when goths discover brown.
Lots of grey in there too.

Nope.
It's another genre that may or may not appeal to goths - bit like emo.
But steampunk is verging on mainstream now, so isn't really what it was.

Seems that way, doesn't it? I actually saw a steampunk costume pattern at
Jo-Ann last time I was there.

My goth friends say no. It just seems that way. Many of them do enjoy
Steampunk, but Steampunk seems to appeal to those who were not goths as well. I
know I like some aspects of it, and I've never had an interest in the regular
goth scene. Seems the Lolita crowd likes it, too... from what I saw

I think a major difference is that Steampunk is more of an aesthetic
movement (decoration, clothing, accessories), while Goth is more of a
philosophy,
To some Steampunk is a philosophy; that of making things ones self.
Steampunk includes building steam engines, steam-powered motorcycles,

I remember when Goth had a DIY philosophy as well, Thanks Hot Topic! *eye

I asked my goth friend who says: Goth is not dead! Long live goth!
Not all goths are steampunks, not all steampunks are goths. But there

Still does. Goths and uh, I don't know how you call those who aren't
Goth but like spooky things, but... In any case, they have the MOST
interesting crafts sites and blogs! (knitting, sewing, decorating,
etc. --
From what I can see and in my laymans observation Steampunks appears to be
more in the COSPLAY space... costumes based on animation..
Goth evolved more as a sub-culture with no direction from animation, maybe
vampire movies had an influence (My daughter was a goth when she was
younger). Victorian
