A flightless bird belonging to a bird group called 'Ratites.' It is second tallest (next to the ostrich.) And is native to Australia. They can be very aggressive if you get close. They are similar to an ostrich in a few ways and different to an ostrich in a few ways.

Emu is not a word for emo.
Me: Hey! I just saw an emu at the zoo.
Friend: Since when do emo kids go to the zoo and since when where they called 'emu'
Me: No, idiot, 'emu' is a flightless bird that is a relative to an ostrich. Learn things already!

A slang for "emo". Meaning: A rather "large" emo kid that sat on the "O" and broke it...then procided to cry about it.
Emu kid: Oh god, my life is horrible and I'm so fat. I think I'll listen to Hawthorn Heights and cut myself in a corner. I should just stop eating and starve myself. *stuffs doughnut in mouth while crying*

the name given to the act performed on a man's penis when it is soft, usually due to the intake of too much alcohol or narcotics resulting in a 'floppy willy' and the act carried out consists of the finger tips being placed together around the penis and moved up and down similar to the movement/appearance of an emu bird's head, neck & beak!!!

half of a comedy pair from the 70's, Rod Hull and Emu. Emu was actually a very large hand puppet; Rod's hand was the emu's head, and his "arm" was a fake, so it looked like he was carrying the large bird. Their routine was not too funny at first, until the emu began to respond to the bad jokes and puns Rod was saying. The emu would make strange faces, stick out his tongue, and mimic his handler, leading Rod to believe he was actually funny. Usually the act ended when the emu attacked Rod. This explanation will make no sense to people who haven't seen it (you young people) but those who came of age in the 70's and 80's Rod Hull and Emu rank with Monty Python and the original cast of Saturday Night Live.
I can't remember which shows they appeared on, but Rod Hull and Emu did all kinds of variety, skit comedy, and kids shows in the 70's.
