A store I don't really care for, but whenever I do go in, I'm always questioned if I want a damn Target card. We are becoming the target of annoyence.
Target Staff Member #1: Hey, want a chance for a target card?
Me: No, thanks.
Target Staff Member #2: Would you like to sign up for a target card?

Get the Rocko's Modern Life mug.I thought I'd give it a try...
What Emo Is And Some History.
Emo is short for emotive hardcore. It's a DIY music style (not a shitty fashion) that started in the 80's. Emo follows (but is not restricted to) the lines of hardcore. Hardcore is a subgenre of punk, therefore, so is emo. The first emo band is often credited to Rites Of Spring. They played with hardcore punk rock energy (as the members were previously involved with hardcore bands) and lots of emotion through their performance and with their audience. Their lyrics seem to have important views about life and a sense of deepness.
"Emo" As A Term.
The term "emo" was generated as an insult to people in the hardcore scene that liked these bands. An emo band's performance on stage (can include crying/moaning/etc. their lyrics and various other events) probably made them look "weaker" to the hardcore kids, which is (why I think) "emo" was directed as an insult.
What Screamo is.
Screamo has evolved from emo. This music style invloves more screaming and often has more melodic breakdowns. Screamo is still emo, therefore follows its guidelines.
What Emo Is Not.
Emo is not short for emotional. Emo is not a fashion. Emo is not "XxXxXxXOMMMFFGZZZZ IM LYKE, SO DEPRESSED!XxXxX!!!1!!111 IM GONNA SLIT MY WRISTZZZZZZZ...LOL..XxXxXxX" Emo was not mainstream (because it was DIY). Emo has nothing to do with being depressed, shitty metaphors, or suicide. Emo is not whiney, bullshit music sung by pubescent males that haven't dropped their balls yet.

Get the Real Emo mug.A virus is the human race. The human race is cutting down forests, melting polar ice caps, and destroying the world.
And that's why the hippies and tree huggers basically died out in the 70's because, once again, the human race is a virus and is destroying everything in it's path.

Get the Virus mug.Some sort of horrid "band". They exist to annoy the shit out of everyone. I'm thinking they're all gay and the lead singer only makes out with some chick in a video to cover up his gayness.
Girl at Maroon 5 Audition: What? You mean I have to make out with him!?!?!?
Director: Yeah, but I'll pay you 3000 bucks if you agree.
Girl at Maroon 5 Audition: Ahh, screw it. You'd have to pay me more than that! I'm outta here!
Director: Damn, lost another one! Alright, girl 23, you're ne...Wait, you're a guy!
"Girl" 23: I know, but he's so beautiful!
Director: Well, you're the last one, go ahead!
Director: Yeah, but I'll pay you 3000 bucks if you agree.

Get the maroon 5 mug.Where I live. It's not that bad and the weather can be really sucky and rainy, or really hot and dry. There's a bunch of drugheads in my area, I don't mind. Some times it can be really boring, but that's just cause my town is so small and I sit around doing nothing all day.
