Noun:
1. Some trendy catch all phrase that get elderly hardcore kids in a fucking rage when you mention it casually. What started out as a derogatory term has mistakenly for some been considered a non-coalition sociocultural movement started by kids who were "totally over hardcore". More correctly it has been used to hype up lazy bands that copy either American Football or Antioch Arrow (if they skram) note for note, refuse to rock out, and get that hype money for record labels like Topshelf, Vagrant (rest in piss), Deathwish or Bridge 9.
2. Pop-punk music where the singer is more sad than angry at the girl who wouldn't go to the prom with him.
Adj.
1. Totally acting like a bitch

for everyone else who hasn't read the history of emo, "For fans of: American Football. We also did a Neutral Milk Hotel cover on the b-side but we're not an emo band"

The Get Up Kids really aren't really that different from New Found Glory just subtract the hardcore kids playing "fun" music vibe and the gang vocals add keyboards and viola you have an emo band!

not all Emotional people cut themselfs or are sad all the time. there is not only "one" emotion, if there was then Emo would be called the word "sad" or "deppresies" emotions can be (happy, sad, angry) suprisingly 90% of Emos today are happy. so there really is no need to stereotype people because of the way they act. its probrably because there hurt inside. and they're deppresion is building up. and noone like a sad kid. (unless your an asshole) be kind to people!

mo was originally a nickname for "emotive hardcore" (type of music), but has evolved into meaning "emotional" because it was misinterpreted, since fans of this music were ususally known for being a bunch of depressed-self-harming-teens with too much free time. It's all stereotypical. But this is what it's known for now. An emo person (like I said stereotypical) would be very depressed, hate the world, including themselves and probably cry all the time. They've even stereotyped and emo style. Usually "emo" kids dress in skinny jeans, dark colors (but not all black), band tee shirts, and chucks. But, like I said about 5 or so times. IT'S ALL STEREOTYPICAL!!! And it did originally mean "emotive hardcore". (and if some one dresses like that it doesn't mean they're gonna go suicidal!)
an Emo thought "the world hates me im gonna cry and cut myself"
Someone who fakes depression for attention
"STOP FUCKING CRYING BITCH, WAA WAAA WAA. I DON'T WANNA HEAR IT YOU EMO KID"
