emo

a pathetic, sad "hip" millenium-brat word a watered down word of what used to in the 80s-90s be simply called a goth.

a way of making being "emotional" and "poetic" seem outrageously trendy also one who frequently goes to hot topic to buy ridiculously expensive clothes--and who wears shirts with bands and pop culture references they know nothing about--a usually upper middle class kid who wants everyone to know what a "misfit" they are

an emo is the equivalent of a yippie--which was back in the day a poser hippie

a multicolored sheep who thinks they go against the grain

emo:
"my life is so tragic, my mom won't get me a cell-phone i need to listen to sad music and contemplate the woe of my existent"

emo:
"i love tight pants and rainbow colors but inside i'm so dark and i've been through things you can't even contemplate like that one weekend when i couldn't go to the mall and hang with my equally troubled and complicated friends"

emo:
"my mommy didn't give me dessert so i gave my self a few small scratches on my wrist cause i'm so dark and sad and oppressed"

emo:
"everything's so sad and hard and no one understands me except the people at hot topic who facilitate my need to be a "rebel"
