Teen trends come and go. One day the kids are into Myspace and then it’s Snapchat. Pop punk fades into meme rap. But what’s the one thing teens will never stop loving and being exceptionally good at? Being Goth AF.
In a stunning move of Goth AF teendom, 17-year-old Megan Flaherty, who I’ve decided to adopt as my daughter immediately upon starting this post, rolled up to her Pennsauken High School prom in a wooden coffin. And the coffin was in a hearse. And she made her date and a friend slide her out of the hearse for a big reveal. I’m in awe. Someone cast her in a Hot Topic campaign before the mall chain shuts down entirely! Psyche! It never will shut down, because teens will be goth forever!
While I wish Flaherty was wearing a gown constructed of 300 lbs of black lace tulle complete with a veil, she does look nice in her blue gown. Almost like a normie who is keeping her darkness on the inside. Which is, somehow, even more goth. Go Megan!
