To be on the top friends list of the establishment that gives me a reason to live, is more than an honor, i thank you deeply, and as long as i live i will NEVER shame you.
It is truly an honor to have u accept my add, I live in the ghetto of Brooklyn N.Y., a place where people get killed everyday for nothing, and through it all i remain true to the Bat, im a Gothic Revolutionary, u can call me an "Urban Goth" or "Ghetto Goth" as far as i know im the only one there is. But anyway i just wanted to say that i respect Everything the Batcave stands for, without you all there would be no us. Much Respect to the Elders.
