Our follower Ashlee, writer of blog "A Mortal Doth Approach" which I suggest you follow, made a list of goth terms, words and saying which I found very interesting and funny too. I immediately thought about sharing with you, of course with Ashlee's permission :)
Baby Bat: A new or young Goth, and sometimes a Mall Goth.
Bleepy-Bleep: The sound that a Cyber Goth's music makes.
Daystar: A fun thing to call the sun.
Doom Cookie: See gloom cookie.
ElderGoth: Someone who's been around for a while.
Fat Bob: An unfortunate nickname of Robert Smiths.
GAF: Goth as fuck.
Gawfick, Gawfikk, Goffik, etc.: Fun, childish, humourous ways to write 'Goth'. Usually used sarcastically, to imitate Baby Bats/Mall Goths.
Gawsome: The Gothy-Goth way to say 'awesome'. From Goth Lyfe.
Gloom Cookie: A Mopey Goth, or just someone who's very into the doom 'n gloom aspect.
Goth Blocked: When a Goth or two or several prevent you from doing something, such as using the restroom or committing suicide.
Goth Card: An imaginary way of measuring Goth-ness. You get your card stamped for doing something like visiting Transylvania, and lose it by, say... wearing a Marilyn Manson shirt.
Goth in a Box: When you go buy a bunch of gawfik clothes from, say, Hot Topic, you have bought yourself a Goth in a Box kit.
Goth Lyfe: A show on YouTube, about these "goths". Very entertaining, and has some fun new vocabulary.
Goth on a Stick: A Goth in trouble. From Goth Lyfe.
Goth Points: An imaginary way to measure your Goth-ness. You gain points for doing something Uber-Gothy like reading Poe by candlelight while drinking wine and lose points for doing something decidedly un-Goth, like wearing a pink shirt.
Gothy-Goth: Very Goth.
Insta-Goth Kit: Also known as a Goth in a Box kit.
Mad Bob: Robert Smith of the Cure.
Mall Goth: One who listens to metal music, likes to shock, the source of their clothes is quite easy to discern (Hot Topic), and is typically seen in Tripp pants. Almost always a teen.
MopeyGoth: The opposite of a Perky Goth. They tend to be like gloom cookies, but not to a comical degree.
Mundane: A non-Goth; someone who is hard to find in a crowd of the general public.
Oontz-Oontz: The sound that Industrial, etc., music makes.
PerkyGoth: The opposite of a Mopey Goth. Just as annoying, but in a sugary, bright happy sunshine way. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Normal/Normie: See mundane.
Not-A-Goth: Someone who denies their obvious Goth-ness.
Oh my Goth!: The Gothy-Goth way of saying "Oh my God!"
Sexy Death Chicks, Sexy Deth Chix, etc: When a tourist goes to the club for the purpose of hooking up, they are said to be there for 'sexy death chicks'.
Spot the Crow: Looking for people with Crow makeup somewhere overrun with Mall Goths, like a Marilyn Manson concert.
Yah: The Gawfikk way to say "yeah". Taken from Goth Lyfe.
Bleepy-Bleep: The sound that a Cyber Goth's music makes.
