Basically a bunch of kids trying to rebel against society by adopting a new 'rebellious' image in which they dress up in dark clothes, have long hair, slit their wrists and listen to crappy music such as Fallout Boy and Panic at the Disco. However, the problem is that this whole image was thought up of businessmen in the music industry who want to make money off naive teenagers, something which they have done rather successfully!
People seem to think that all emos are social outcasts. Not true, a number of them are actually popular kids who think that changing their image will make them more down-to-earth when in fact it turns them into a bigger prick!
They also think that anybody is a chav, even a person like me who listens to Canibus rap about the exact value of Pi (3.14592653589 for those who don't know...)
Sterotypical emo: "You're a chav!"
Me: "STFU! If you such a big rock music fan then name me one Jimi Hendrix song?"
Sterotypical emo: "Errrrrr...."
Me: "I'm Wating...How about Voodoo Chile?"
Sterotypical emo: "Isn't that some kind of country?"
