Get the Emo mug.Okay well i myself am emo, & im tired of you stupid ass faggots talking shit about emo scene kids. Emo is short for EMOTiONAL!! Me yes im emotional, NO im not depressed all the time,I live a happy ass motherfucking life! & Idk what all this shit is about "OMG there so whiny & annoying & they complain about everything" Bcuz thats a fucking lie, Maybe if you stupid ass fucks didnt hate & abuse emo/scene kids SO much then maybe there wouldnt be anything to complain about! I mean we have feelings you dumbfuckss! Yes, Most emo/scene kids wear skinny jeans & band t-shirts, & converses. Wristbands, have piercings, colorful beast hair... Gauged ears..Most listen to screamo & rockk any type of musicc from them categories & Theres tons of them, But most people fall into the style not knowing what it is & then later find out, Not all emo's cut themselves, I do, But not 24/7 ,SO no we are not copycats, We make it origional in our own ways, I know i doo, SO dont fuckin call me a copycat! SO there thats my definition of EMO! So fuck off you fags & get a life you lil' faggot ass fuckers always misunderstand the term "Emo."

Get the Emo. mug.describes a kind of music that has miraculously branched into a subculture of people. an 'emo' kid has a lot of product in their hair, bracelets, jeans that are far too tight, a studded belt and an xs t-shirt featuring a band with a lot of eyeliner. they cut themselves and write bad lyrics with the blood. these people are so horrible, they get broken up with on a daily basis. fortunately this fuels their entire paradigm.
an 'emo' kid has long bangs.
this is to shield them from a cruel judgmental world that will never understand.

Get the 'emo' mug.Emo is ONLY an insult given by Punks directed towards the avid fans of Emotive Hardcore Punk & the genre itself. Emotive started in the mid/early 80's in the D.C. Hardcore scene. Emotive is essentially watered down Hardcore Punk. This type of music wasn't accepted in the scene, thus the term Emo was born.
2 of the most noted bands to take this form of Punk in a new direction, was Rites Of Spring & Embrace. Guy Picciotto, the lead singer of Rites Of Spring; most famous for his work in Fugazi, paved the way for what we now know as Emotive Hardcore Punk. Ian MacKaye, most famous for his Hardcore Punk band Minor Threat & the creation of Straight Edge; was also was a defining band.
Emotive in the '80's resembled it's parent genre, with more emotionally charged lyrics & a new tone. But in the '90's Emotive took a totally different feel.
Emotive in the '90's took a more Indie feel to their music. More commonly known as Post-Emo, it was bands like Cap'n Jazz, Jets To Brazil, Joan Of Arc, Sunny Day Real Estate, etc etc... Cap'n Jazz helped transform emo from a deeply underground Punk sub-genre, into a more widely accepted subset of Indie rock.
Emotive in the '90's also gave birth to what we now know as Screamo (Skramz). Screamo (Skramz) is somewhat of a misnomer. Though the genre often had screaming vocals, it wasn't the focus of the genre. Skramz is a more chaotic way of playing it's parent genre.

Get the Emo mug.Someone who normally wears a lot of black, most times has heavy black eyeliner, and has a lot of misconceptions about them. The emos that most people think of are depressed people who keep to themselves and sit in their rooms all alone listening to MCR and cutting themselves. This is not true for all emo people. Many are tons of fun, smile a lot, and are extremely hyper one minute, and sad the next (sometimes, the second part is just cut out completely). Many people who are emo are actually ADD or ADHD.

Get the Emo mug.Emoism a sexually transmitted disease commonly found in angsty teens and preteens. This disease is characterized by poor taste in clothing, too tight pants, too small shirts, retarded scarves, and hair that needs to cover at least half the face. This disease is usually spread in suburbia but can also be found elsewhere. This disease is usually spread during the emo mating ritual(See Emo def #3).
Unfortunately this STD cannot be stopped by any known STD blocker (condom, abstinence, etc). Care should also be taken when their music is playing due to the high risk of brain damage and/or complete stupidity.
