Get the emomug. emo is an abbreviation not for the word 'emotional' but 'emotive'. Emotive music is a sub-genre of rock popular among middle class teenagers with emotional difficulties. Normally the vocalist does not in fact sing, he/she whines instead. A lot of emo fans do in fact like other rock sub-genres, however these do not directly address their emotional difficulties. Being an emo fan is a bit like going to an alcoholics anonymous class-you just go to a gig, cry/worry etc, find another person in the same boat, tell them everything will be alright, they tell you everything will work out fine, you get reassured then you stop crying/worrying and the gig ends.
The names of emo bands more often than not say it all.

Me:Hey man have you heard that metallica are headlining download this year? That's fuckin awesome, I'm getting my ticket tonight.
Emo fan: Yeah I heard. I dunno, metallica are a bit too aggressive for me. Whenever I hear them I wonder whether I'll ever be emotionally strong enough to make that sort of music.
Me: Metallica have sold around 100 MILLION albums worldwide. That's more than the whole emo genre. Unlucky man.

Get the emomug. Emo=gay. Prove me wrong emos, prove me wrong. If you can't, or don't want to, go cut yourself. You know you want to, I hear emos find it fun. Remember kiddies, suicide is funny to a point, so grow up, get out of your sister's pants and grow some balls.
Dashboard Confessionals are openly gay. Emo bands are all openly gay. You're openly gay. If you don't think you're gay then; you may not be gay, but your boyfriend is.
