The EMO, a cross between an emu and a dodo, is a an awkward bird like creature near extinction found solely off the coast of Ireland.
Girl 1: Did you see that girl fall on America's Next Top Model last night?
Girl 2: I know! She's so clumsy, she should be on Ireland's Next Top Emo!!

Get the Emo mug.Well, there are two types of emo. There are the people who really appreciate the style, then there are the people who try to act emo to be cool or something. These people who pretend to be emo are called posers, and have now ruined the name of being emo, and a lot of other things. No, emo people are not depressed. Depressed people have nothing to do with being emo.
The difference between emo and poser:
Me: I didn't know you like Avril Lavigne! She's my favorite singer.
Poser: I kno! She's lyke totalli punk! I luv gyrlfrend!
Random stranger: Are you depressed or something?
REAL emo person: No... Why do I look like it?

Get the Emo mug.An emotional person who is melancholic about his/her life.
Sometimes it's because of being broken-hearted, depressed, pessimistic and also being so cynical.

Get the Emo mug.In the 1980s they were called "punk". Same thing as emo. Emo is not a new thing, but the word emo is new. If you know what "punks" were in the 80s and how they dressed and acted, well, that is what an emo is in 2011. Same thing different label.
If the punk kid in 1985 was sent forward in a time machine to the year 2011 they would call him an Emo.

Get the emo mug.I want to set the record straight of SO MANY PEOPLE being TERRIBLE to the stereotype of emo.
Emo does not mean you cut your self. It doesn't mean you wear skinny jeans, or tight shirts, or messed up shoes or greasy hair.
There are certain people in the world that don't care what others think of them too much, truly. They actually do like the color black, and while other people might not see their issues as important, somethings are backed with painful memories that are very important. just because their hair is black, or covers their face, doesn't mean they do it just for the sake of having it. A lot of people truly like the style.
A lot of emos ARE artistic, because most commonly being emo is when you're more in touch with yourself then other people your age. In fact, most of the people who are emo don't even classify themselves as emo becuase labels are not necessary.
If you cut yourself, it doesn't mean your emo, and if you don't it doesn't mean you aren't. The two things have nothing to do with each other!
Emo was originally short of emotional, in a musical genre sense. As it developed into a 'label', it means the same. A lot of emo people feel extreme emotions whether they be happy or sad.
I will admit there are emo posers, who cut themselves and dress for the sake of seeming badass, but some people seriously like the style!
Don't be mean about it, because what if I constantly stereoptyped and made fun of you? How would you feel?

Fake: Scratches wrists to make it look like they have scars, reads definitions on urban dictionary to find out how to be emo, goes around saying they're emo
Real: Dresses how they want, acts how they want, aren't influenced too easily, very in touch with who they are, a lot are very artistic and have real issues that are very important to them. or maybe the don't have issues, they're just a very in touch, artistic person

Get the Emo mug.Definitely a miss used word... in my expericance it takes an emo a little bit of time to open up in both feelings and apperance. Just because one is emo doesnt mean they harm themselves or others. Not all emos are quiet, actually a lot of us are loud and cheerful, and mainly cause we hid behind a face, but no all the time. Emos are really chill people and are the best at giving advice. We also have a great taste in music! ;) I feel like people make fun of emos for no reason, and that should change, I believe we should bring the emo era back and people will finally know how awesome it is!
"Yo bro look at the kid he is dressed like a freak!"
"bro chill he's just emo he's actually a really cool guy!"
