Stupid subculture centered around glorification of sadness/hopelessness with a strong emphasis on tight sweaters/hoodies, thick horn-frame black eyeglasses, mascara/eyeliner on men, among other wack and unfashionable choices. These people are not to be trusted since they're going to self-destruct when the sun goes down and they would rather slash their wrists over the lack of light than flick the fucking switch and be able to see (or in some extreme cases change the light bulb). If they're ever going to show courage and be optimistic, it's always too sentimental and will eventually invariably revert to boo-hoo woe is me woe is the world crying and dying.
Their name stems from "emotional", literally. Nothing wrong with emotions, but these people take it to the Nth degree and are generally unstable.

"Dear Diary,
We are emo, we are beautiful. Life is beautiful...but it makes me cry. Sometimes I get bored and apathetic, maybe I'll cut my wrists again to lament on my artistic struggle and search for an understanding of my endless emotions in this dark void we call life. I guess I'll go check and see if my younger sister's pants will fit me. Hopefully she won't notice, but who cares if she does? Who cares about anything? Nothing matters. I'm going to go cry some more."

All Henriks are emo! They keep it secret because they’re embarrassed over being emo. Use the hashtag “henrikisemo” in the caption of your posts on any social medias.
