one who listens to emo music and rejects pop culture. emo music is generally centered around depressing topics (ie. heartbreak, etc.) but is well understood by its listeners.
My buddy b-mar is most definitely an emo kid, although she calls me one too.

There are WAY many people complaining about emo kids.
Grow up. Please for the sake of this world.
Grow up. Any way yeah. Emo is not rimmed horn glasses, tight pants, and band Ts. It is not caring about what people say. It can be very hard but yes that is what it means! God you people stop posting that emo kids are annoying. Annoying emo kids are the poser kind. Here is my list of emo defiitions

Real Emo- Doesn't care. There are many reasons why they don't care any more. One reason could be that they are just to jaded from parent, freinds, random peeps from school ect. Some cut. Some don't It really maters on the person. They may wear black. They may not. The point is, is that emo people don't care if some one makes fun of them
Real Emo music- The Used, Underoth, From First to Last, and Afi. (that's all that I can name off the top of my head)

Posser Emo- May or may not cut. Uashully wears all black. Thinks they have a real reason to be depressed when they really don't. They tried to be goth but they failed at that and became emo.
Posser Emo music- Dashboard Confessionals, Good Charolate, and Simple Plan. (I am not saying these bands aren't good I'm just saying Posers ushually love them)
Semi-Emo - The mix of normal kid and real emo. They don't care what people think of them yet they tend to give in to people and get feelings hurt easily.
Semi-Emo music- see real emo. (sometimes semi emos music is softer)

All emos or bulimic/anerexic- hardly ever
All emos draw anemi-ushually tru but not always
All emos cut- False
All emos are bi/gay- Not Always
All emos wear black- ushually true but not always
Boy 1: Hey it's an emo kid!
Real emo: fag
Boy 2: you're the fag
Real emo: *looks at Boy 2 weird*
Boy 2: you gonna go cut yourself now?
Boy 1: Or are you gonna go draw us some anime?*laughs histaricaly*
Real emo: *flips off boy number 1&2 and walks away*

Boy 1: Hey it's an emo kid!
Emo Poser: *walks away to go cut*

Sitoution 2:
Girl 1: Ewww...two gay emo guys
Emo boy 1: We're not gay you idiot.
Emo boy 2: Hey wanna get some pizza
Emo boy 2: Yeah I'm starved

Girl 1: Girl 1: Ewww...two gay emo guys
Emo boy poser1: *starts crying*
Emo boy poser2: It's okay. let's just go back home and listen to Dashboard Confessional.
Emo boy poser1: *sniff* okay.

Cool. happy people. that listen to really awesome rock music. that is full of talent. sometimes sad. but only over things that typical teens are sad over. emo=emotive. originally emotive hardcore. which started in DC. emo kids. love local music and just being themselves. which is usually different than anyone they know. emo kids love to be original. and hate hypocritical people who don't know what emo even is. and think that emo kids are just sad.

EMO KIDS ARE IN EVERYONE. THEY ARE TRULY ORIGINAL. and their style can not be defined! it is always different. the clones you see. are not emo but wannabes. who are lost and need help and give emo a bad name.
Emo kid: The coolest most original person you know you lets people know what they think and feel. and stands up for what they believe in. whether it be god or satan. they'll back em to the end.

Real Emo Kid-
-Emotional person
-has appreciation for good music (that acutally means something and isnt talking about women and cars.)
-dont care what people think
-DOES shop at hottopic, but doesnt buy the clothes just because they thinks they are cool, but because they like them
-dress how they want
-do what they want, even if its corny
(thats just a sum)

Fake Emo Kid-
-calls themselves emo
-shops at hottopic excessivly and brags about it
-buts clothes they think are cool
-crys in public on purpose just so they get attention
-says their misunderstood and alone all the time
(watch out for these ones, they are pretty much the stupidest people out there)
real emo kid- "so what are you listening to?"
-
fake emo kid- "the red jumpsuit apparatus."
-
real emo kid- "really? oh i love them."
-
fake emo kid- "i just got their cd yesterday..."
-
real emo kid- "what song are you listening to?"
-
fake emo kid- "uh... i dont know, number 5."

an emo kid is a misfit misunderstood often depressed. these people see beauty in the world..mostly based on pain. these people reject non-emos mostly and deny there emo-ness. most of them cut...but only the fags show off. (these are attention whores NOT TRUE EMOS) real emos often wear whatever the fuck they feel like and dont care about anyones fuckin opinion.
prep: you scare me. why are you so sad?
emo kid: fuck you. (walks away)
prep: (stands still...shaking)

someone who doesnt exactly fit in. they probably dont even try. we dont all slit our wrists, and can be great people if you get to know an emo person. it could be called a way of lif or just whatever you define it as. they most likely want more alone time than others. Emo has a distinct style that others may call kinda gay, but they obviously know nothing about being emo. We listen to watever kinda music we want wether its cool or not. A true emo will where whatever they want wether its tight jeans or a pink and black striped scarf, it doesnt matter, a poser emo will try to where tight jeans and black and talk about how they LOVE to cut themselves. This is all that comes to mind so, yeah.
Emo Kid listening to his favorite music:_the lyrics of that song are deep and move me to an emotional level i have never felt before

person who is picked on because of their amazing emo clothing style, being in tune with their world and senses, and not being afraid of rejection by the popular people. they write to release, and are not afraid of their feelings.
