People identify emo as someone who is depressed and wears the color black alot.
Person 1: Omg he wearing all black he such a emo.
Person 2: I know right he definitely emo
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"

“Addison is entering her emo phase.”
“She isn’t in her emo phase, Addiston is the emo phase.”
"Being emo" can be assumed as wearing a black hoodie and ignoring all social interaction. And that might be true for some people. Being emo is not a bad thing, because you don't have to deal with bitches and fake friends
