(WARNING)This is a list of experiences and encounters of emo kids that I have had. This isn’t a fact but a stereotype. But what is a stereotype but a basic description of someone or something. Again not all of these are a fact but hey you have to give things a label. If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck its an emo kid... j/k
Plus I am a Emo Kid so I can report about it. Straight from the horses mouth.

Yes I think we all know that there are many different types of Emo Kids just like every other label. Emo kids are not in a class all of there own. There will always be crossovers exceptions and tangential relations. My intent is to help categorize the effort.

How you can identity an Emo Kid:

1.) Different types of Music and Emo genres:

Emo is a broad title that covers a lot of different styles of emotionally-charged punk rock.

Screamo Kids (Bands like Hawthorne Heights, Sasoin, Rise Against, Senses Fail, Silverstein, Underoath, Atreyu, The Used) Along the lines of Postcore music.

Scene/Emo Kids (Bands like A Heartwell Ending) Similar to Scremo mostly local bands.

Pop-punk/Emo Kids (Bands like Anberlin, Armor for Sleep, Fall Out Boy, Good Charlotte, Story of the Year, Simple Plan, Yellowcard, Coheed & Cambria, Thursday)

Indie/Emo Kids (Bands like Motion City Soundtrack, Dashboard Confessional, The Early November, The Juliana Theory, Something Corporate, The Spill Canvas, Jimmy Eat World)

Gothic/Emo Kids....?(Avenged Sevenfold) More Gothic...

A photograph showing a person taking that actual picture of themselves, usually appearing to have a stern facial expression. It is taken actually holding the camera and pointing it at yourself rather than someone else taking the picture or using a self timer and a tripod. These types of photos are commonplace for myspace users.

me: "emos are dumb teenagers who think their life was horrible, and whine about how they are not understood."

a miserable piece of shit person who listens to shitty pop punk and cries them self to sleep because they should be shot to death with an unloaded gun

Someone who is depressed,temperamental,or just don't have any friends.Not ALL people like this are emo,but most are. Most people don't like emos because they're jealous of the privacy and style emos have.Emos,DON'T all cut their wrists,but I think some do....

Emo meaning emotional is a new craze across the young 'uns! emos can be spotted by a greasy fringe, skinny jeans, hoodies and a general grunting distain for those around them. Emo gangs try to act depressed and generally buy a copy of marilyn mansuns greatest hits. They pretend to know everything about punk and rock (even though most of them weren't born when kurt cobain died)they wear t-shirts saying 'kurt cobain died for us' which in short is a pretencious pile of wank that's spread across our society! Don't get me wrong I appreciate that everybody has problems, and i am by no means a chav... (they're all scum and should be shot!)... but come on people. We are british, we do not parade around showing our emotions and slitting our wrists and acting depressed. We as a nation are supposed to have the stiff upper lip and generally repressed attitude to our feelings!
