Emo

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
1.
for the anal retentive hardcore kid, "Emo started in blah blah blah by blah blah blah... (go on and on for about another three or four paragraphs)... what people call emo isn't really emo! I'm going to go cry and be upset about the state of hardcore music cause Judge reunited."

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"

2.

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!

Adj.
1. If you wrote more than a paragraph about emo you're an emo bitch.

Emo

Funny people that are not satanic
Suicidal outcasts

They are some of the most chill people out there in my opinion

I can be myself around them and talk about Mcr and Fob non-stop and they wont even be irritated

Unlike some people emo's are okay with admitting that they are to confirming to a group

The real ones know that they are not "making a statement" or
"Trying to rebel against society"
Maybe they just thought that it would be nice to wear band merch with some black skinny jeans

Not all emo's are depressed

In fact some of the happiest people I've ever met were emo they were probably just faking it but they weren't going around writing poems and songs about it
What people think emos are:
OH MY GOD MY LIFE SUCKS
I HATE MYSELF
IM GONNA GO KILL MYSELF

What emos really are:
WHOOP WHOOP

BRENDON URIE REVINED MEE

OH MY GOD MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE IS GETTING BACK TOGETHER!!!! Hrudhdgdidvshx*faints*
