Noun:
1. An offensive gaming term used with a negative connotation by the apathetic gamer to accuse another gamer of caring.

2. Used to deflect agitation as a ruse.
Ex.1:

Gamer B, "Chill out man, smoke some weed, don't be such an emo fag."
Gamer A, "You are an idiot, and you are an unreliable lazy fuck."
Gamer B, "Whatever dude, go slash your wrists with an emo knife."

Ex.2:

Gamer A "Are we that petty that you have to steal my shit?"
Gamer B "Unfortunately, you didn't have claim when I killed it, A-SO-Sorry."
Gamer A "Whatever man, I don't care honestly. No need to get so emo over it."
Gamer B "...really? I get the kill and you call me emo?"

Emo

Emotive Hardcore is an offshoot from hardcore punk which formed in the late 80s and was played throughout the 90s. The term "emo" was coined to such bands like Rites of Spring and Embrace and other bands with a more melodic hardcore sound and expressive lyrics, although some later bands experimented with a softer indie alternative sound as well. You can also say it was a term to describe the "sound" of the DC area of the time. However, if you ask any of the members, they would highly disapprove of this term and most likely mock it.
Emo is not dying your hair black, piercing your lip, and it's certainly not cutting your wrist, that's just a trend. Emo is a music genre that started in the 90s and ended in the 90s.

Emo bands:
-Rites of Spring
-Embrace
-Fugazi
-Gray Matter
-Cap N' Jazz
-Jawbox

I see how many of you judge 'emos', and I'm sick of it. I mean, yes, some of them are just attention thirsty teenagers, but some are not.

"Emos" are people who would rather feel physical pain rather than emotional pain. I know it sounds stupid, but as a teenager, we all grow up differently and feel things in so many different ways. To one person, fumbling over a sentence for a moment is nothing, but to another...it could be something they think about all day, full of regret. I agree, that that is overly sensitive, but it's just they way some people are. There is no reason to hate on them.

Just let people be who they are and don't stereotype.
Emo is a state of mind, not a fasion statement.
