Get the Emo mug.Caused by a traumatic event or a series of traumatic events leading upto or during social interaction, causing blood clots in the wrist, suicidal tendancies, loss in fashion sense, need to express femanine side too often, a need to voice there emotions using other mediums such as art, music,poems (Which usually have no structure, and have no meaning or purpose) ,or other methods which include dropping into subtle conversation, and by conversing, they can drop hints of their emotional experiances. The blood clotting, explains why emo's find the need to extract of blood from around the wrist area, and find it quite natural to do this themselves, using their moms best kitchenware, *hint. dont eat with a knife at an emo's house, unless it has been steralised*
An example of subtle hint dropping is:
Guy number 1: "Hey John, you will never guess what, my goldfish died to day"
John: "O Thats to bad, kinda like how my will to live died last month...." *awkward silence*
Guy Number 1: "damn your so EMO!"
Guy number 1: "Hey John, you will never guess what, my goldfish died to day"
John: "O Thats to bad, kinda like how my will to live died last month...." *awkward silence*
Guy Number 1: "damn your so EMO!"

Get the Emo mug.A depressing music which gathers attention of would-be-goths and the hatred of wannabe skaters. To waste time to segregate people by their way of thinking. To say someone is Emo or say you are Emo is overall pointless. The reason people think that Emo is so bad is because television, though being entertaining, stops us from having feelings. And we make fun of people who do have feelings calling them "Over-Emotional" when we in fact are "Emotionless".
Hey Dude, that guy is Emo he must kiss guys and cut his wrists lets beat him up with our skateboards and suffocate him with our egos.

Get the emo mug.1. (musical genre) emo music rose form the Washington DC punk scene in the mid 80s. bands were noted for being lighter. Notable to today's definition, bands sang instead of the more aggressive punk branch that would become hard core. Due to its vague definition and use as an insult, many bands that are not self proclaimed emo bands are branded with this title.
2. (lifestyle) This is the more commonly known definition. Emos are often self pitting, and have a negative outlook on life. many emos are compared to "goths". The term is usually used for people who's "depression" is fake and only for attention.

Get the emo mug.The term Emo is now non existant. There was a time when if you wore womens clothes and acted as if you were on a period other people would laugh at you. Attention seekers saw this as a way to get attention and joined in wearing black and talking about how sensative they are and which films they cried at at the weekend. They also spend a lot of their time in town gathering like dirty vampires.
Naturally like sheep people have just followed the fashion and now most people are 'Emos' or they think they are.
At the start if you were an emo you were trying to be different and personally all I see is a bunch of zombies that look and dress the same.
Being an Emo is no longer how you are, it is just fashion.
