Emo is NOT cutting yourself
Emo is NOT goth
Emo is NOT metal
Emo is NOT punk, it's a DERIVATIVE, otherwise MCR's debut was punk since it sounded a lot like Rites of Spring
Emo was reinvented by Sunny day real estate, and had then an alternative rock/indie sound. Jimmy eat world had a pop punk sound. Dashboard Confessional had an indie sound. American football had an indie sound. Also, if emo must sound punk, then why is Sunny day real estate called emo?
Emo is NOT dead
If emo is Jimmy eat world and the get-up kids, then how is emo supposed to be ultra obscure and have only no more than 99 fans?
Emo is NOT jeans and a hair fringe
Emo is NOT all-black clothes, big black "shock-value" makeup worn by like Marilyn Manson or Alice Cooper
Emo is NOT depressive
Emo changed and was reinvented
Emo evolved into other music
Emo is simply alternative/punk influenced music with emotional lyrics.
Emo is NOT scene. (Scene is Breathe Carolina and Dot Dot Curve)

Emo

Someone who normally wears a lot of black, most times has heavy black eyeliner, and has a lot of misconceptions about them. The emos that most people think of are depressed people who keep to themselves and sit in their rooms all alone listening to MCR and cutting themselves. This is not true for all emo people. Many are tons of fun, smile a lot, and are extremely hyper one minute, and sad the next (sometimes, the second part is just cut out completely). Many people who are emo are actually ADD or ADHD.

Woah, she seems totally emo.
Yeah, but she's still fun.
O_o?
She's like, ADD or something.

emo

emo is not only a way of dressing its a way of living...
emo=emotional,and not afraid of expressing these emotions.
people who hate emos are just bitter and have no real reason for hating us at all.
there are so many stereotypes about emos that arent even true!

not all emos have an emo fringe!
not all emos are bisexual or gay!
not all emos slit their wrists!

people who stereotype are ignorant and they usualy have never even met any emos.

some things me and other emos i know wear:
*drainpipe jeans
*converses
*polka-dots
*stripes
*checks
*pumps
*band tshirts and hoodys
*studded belt

emos usually listen to 'emo/screamo' bands like lost prophets and from first to last.
people who say they hate emo music usually havent even heard any!
they just judge it because its 'emo' and they think everything 'emo' is crap.

i know what i'm talking about because i am emo and i have spoken to loads of people who say they hate emo and when i ask them if they know any emos the usual answer is 'no' and they have usually never even listened to any emo music at all they just decided to hate emos for no reason, just to be stupid, people who hate emos are usually preps/chavs/jocks/scallys and norms even some metalheads.

emo haters should get a life
and my opinion is that emo rules!!

emohater:eww i hate emos
me:why
emohater:coz you slit your wrists and pretend u hav problems and u listen to shit music
me:hav u ever even met an emo??
emohater:no but ive heard about u people
me:ok hav u ever listened to any emo music
emohater:no, why wud i? its all shit!
me:ur just ignorant
emohater:ur just a dumb emo

Emo

Emoism a sexually transmitted disease commonly found in angsty teens and preteens. This disease is characterized by poor taste in clothing, too tight pants, too small shirts, retarded scarves, and hair that needs to cover at least half the face. This disease is usually spread in suburbia but can also be found elsewhere. This disease is usually spread during the emo mating ritual(See Emo def #3).
Unfortunately this STD cannot be stopped by any known STD blocker (condom, abstinence, etc). Care should also be taken when their music is playing due to the high risk of brain damage and/or complete stupidity.

My life sucks, I want to cry. I am a whiney emo bitch

emo

People who cut themselfs because they hate their life or are sad. Being emo is a serious medical issue and shouldn't be joked about because people actually do cut themself when they're in a stage of depression. If you see cuts on someones wrists try to help them and if you're emo please seek attion because people love you.

Being emo makes you think a knife can relieve pain.
