A group of people who think that because they have long hair, tight pants, and an attitude that they're better/sadder/more depressed that other people. Really aren't a different subculture, just teens who shop at Hot Topic and look despairingly at you.
David: I'm so emo. I'm dark and bad and apathetic.
Kayla: Grow up. Either go goth or let it go, David.

Get the emomug. A sub-genre of rock music closely related to punk.
Other sub-genre's similar or easily mistanken to be emo could be Post-Hardcore or Pop-Punk.
Emo (or "Emo Kids") also refers to people who listen to emo, (usually teenagers). The common stereotype with emo's are that they are deppressed, bisexual, fake, self loathing, dark, sensitive, and extremely associated with self harm. This is not always the case. Yes, some emo's are deppressed, but not all of them. Some are bisexual, others arent. etc, etc, etc... Those stereotypes can apply to other sub cultures, not just emo.
There is a large number of emo kids that arent like that. There are quite a lot of happy, confident emo's.

Get the emomug. the definition of temporary. Emo is the belief by adolescents that covering your face with dyed-black hair, wearing skin tight pants, a pink belt and a purple hoodie will help you fit in at school and make more friends.
Emo is a concept so ridiculous and immature to anyone no longer in high school that it inevitably fades away after graduation and the so-called emos take on normal adult lives.
Can anyone picture emo finance man on his way to work on wall street?
or emo grandpa at the nursing home?
or emo dad taking the kids out to a baseball game?
Does any emo reading this really think that he's going to dress and act that way for the rest of his life?

Little Suzy Bjorkman, age 5, visited grandpa emo at the nursing home last sunday. Still sporting dyed black hair covering half his face and talking with an extremely nasally voice he spent the entire sunday spurting out random blobs of nonsense which annoyed the mature nurses incredibly. This was a combination of alsheimers and a lifetime of being emo.
Come on, can any of you actually picture a grandpa emo doing that?

Get the emomug. 1: Emos are either crying, whinny, cutting punks that can't help to think they are useless, deprived of love, or heartless
2: Emos are skateboarding, emotive hardcore loving, metal slamming teens from 13-17 or keep going to be emo in adult yrs. Write lyrics that are meant to be loud and emotional or about something that happened to them
3: Emos can be hyper, colorful,emotive, laid back yet smiley people who also love the emo fashion and hardcore type of music like punk, indie rock, heavy metal, metal, emotive hardcore...they love ninjas, vampires, werewolves, zombies, faerie, coffins, Hot Topic, skulls, studded belts or jewelry, black, bright colors, red, blood, horror or morbid/macabre art, magik, ghosts, ghost lovers, bloody horror movies and books, wear their bangs in front of face, some dye hair black, alot of wild colors, keep their natural hair color not just dye another color beside black, they like sick minded things, anything to do with poetry, loud metal music, skateboarding, death topics, or paranormal or abnormal related.
4. EMOS are people coming from a emotive hardcore background that takes an emo person to further distance themselves. Emo was marked in the year of 1984 when the band Rites of Spring started to play in Washington, D.C. these songs gave heart-wrenches of woe which woe means sorry, lost, distance, grief or that someone was hurt real bad.Emotional Punk Music started in the e. 1900's that grew nationwide that teens grew hunger for songs with guitar solos that were loud and piano or keyboard riffs. Punk music is also positive showing that others can be hurt by words or things just done. Emos can show good messages too...not just about pain and suffering. Actually today about 73% of known emos are energetic, upbeat,happy,hyper, yet some may just smile all the time cause they just love the emo sense of style or emos that rarely smile but if you say something funny you could get a smile and a laugh. 18% of emos are sad, emotional, cutting, self-blamming teens but its not like they can't smile or laugh in awhile. "I have watched many plus I am emo too and trust me I've seen a group of 8 emos that never smiled until someone started to do stupid tricks and tickle them to death"
5: Emo girls tend to be very emotional but not sad way they can be very happy, they usually are energetic,hyper, heart-warming girls which most write poems of sad relationships, death, dead people, or plain unusual. Emo girls wear lots of skirts with plaid with red,black,or the insane bright colors that usually has some gothic or emo touch like a cartoon dead kitty or panda, love bright bold jewerly which includes lime green, flourescent orange, flourescent yellow, bright blue, or violet, hot pink. They wear leggings, harm bands or arm warmers, flat shoes with the cutsie skull or punk checkerboard look, tops that say goth angelic or it may have skulls and a poem that seems so sad on it but I love it, chains, chain pants, and the purse gotta be bold or black with some personal touch. Emo Girls tend to dye their hair black, black with blonde highlights, funky bright colors, or they go natural instinct.
6: Emo boys wear black chain pants, wool sweaters with the jail look, shirts with skulls,snakes,picture of demons, band names, black shoes or ruffed up skateboarder shoes etc.
7: Emos can or don't have to have peircings, they can also just wear other jewerly not totally on your body like some gothic cross with a skull on it. Yes the black rimmed glasses but depending on your glasses size you can't always get them big n thick rimmed. Studded wear is also huge, as well as HIM, Enties, Element, Fox, Greenday, AFI, Hello kitty (popular with girls), some love anime, Slipknot, The Stones, Led Zep, Pantera, The Used, Black Label Society, Twitzed, Immortal, FOB, Rob Zombie, maybe something insane with insane pyscho, insane clown, insane dead animal, My Chemical Romance, S.H.E., Social Collison, and many others.
6: Emos should love stores like Hot Topic, Dead Kitty, The-Black-Cat Closet, Medival Gothic, The Black Angel, and several others that contain emo,punk,gothic clothes
7: Emos are very close to goth types to or are also goth, some get to be friends with a gangsta type. Emos are great people.
