Most people who call themselves "emo" aren't even really emo. They are stupid teenagers, usually between the ages of 12 and 16. They listen to bands like "My Chemical Romance" and "Fallout Boy", which, in they're twisted minds, makes them cool.
They spend the day at school, causing drama, but at the same time act like they hate it. They're also very attention craved and will make up stories to get more of it.
You'll see a lot of "emo's" on myspace, posting pictures they took with their new $250 digital camera. They'll put the pictures in black and white, cover their face with their bangs, and even take the picture blurry to attempt to appear better looking. They'll also take pictures at ridiculous angles, sometimes revealing their chests, not so inconspicuously.
They tend to have screen names with a lot of "X's" in them like, xXxBrokenXheartxXx and XXcrystalxtearzxX.
They tend to hang out at fast food restraints such as Burger King and Mc. Donaldβs. BEWARE! Associating with an "emo" will only bring trouble, because, in fact they aren't really emo, but attention craved morons.

Many people have used the word "emo" as a bad thing. I read definitions from 5 people, all used this definition:
"Angry teenagers who dress in black and act miserable around others"
That, however, is not the definition of emo. That is in fact the definition of goth. The real definition, excluding all stereotypes and falsehoods, is:
People, ages 13 & up, who feel emotional. Thus, emo. Most emotions expressed are
1. Anger at the world
2. Saddness at a tragic event (death, near-death experience, ect.)
After some began to dress in black, it began the stereotype. Again, they are not to be confused with goths who are, as defined by ones I've met, mostly Wickens and dress in black and all that. Emo's are often angry at the world because many people can be idiots (that is slightly an inside joke, but not quite. So please don't reject this)
Another stereotype is that emos are miserable around people. This is completely untrue. I, actually being emo myself, am quite perky around people and am only angry when alone. Most emos are loners, that part is true, but only because of the aforementioned reasons.
Ironically, the reason I an writing this is the exact same reason I am emo. Far too many people make these mistakes, so I am hoping the world will read this and for once, understand what they're actually talking about.
The band Green Day is considered an "emo" band due to their tendency to write songs such as "American Idiot," which uses terms on how America is controlled by the media, and making many mistakes, making them angry.

A type of style that consists of hair (typically dyed black, dark brown, or bleach blonde) that covers the side of ones face, tight skinny jeans, body piercings or modifications, and eyeliner. Emo's follow bands such as Hawthrone Heights, Panic at the Disco, Paramore ect. Emo is not to be confused with depression as many emo's are not depressed and just like the style.
Look at that dude standing right there he's emo.

bad music. also equivalent to metal as demonstrated by the following equation:
Emo = Bad music
Metal = Bad music
Therefore, emo = metal, because they're both bad.
Gorthus: Man Bullet for my Valentine is sooooo good and Red Hot Chili Peppers suck!
Kevin: Stop dissin good music and saying emo music is good. Clown.

It's not people who cut themselves, or hate themselves and life. Not people who dress in skinny jeans with hair over their eye and band tee's. Emo came from emotive music and people began saying things like they cut themselves or all they do is cry, when that style became popular. Emo is really just a style of music that has meaning to it. Instead of things like 'Can't Be Tamed by Miley Cyrus' that has no depth, there is songs like 'Miserable At Best by Mayday Parade' that has depth. Basically, emo came about to label people who have a sensitive side.
Typical stereo type.
Person #1- That guy is wearing skinny jeans and isn't smiling, he must be emo.
Person #2- Yeah. He probably cuts himself every night.
*Person 1 and 2 start laughing*
