Get the EMOmug. Life is either what you make of it or what you do not make of it. IF you're happy going thru life sad and that's your thing, OK...BUT there is a lot more out there if your attitude is that "the glass is half full" - be positive. Just cause bad stuff happened to you, don't internalize it to the point where you cannot see the good stuff all around you. Personally, I find most emo's a downer who work hard at exuding bad vibes.
emo - Trying to exude no perceptible positive emotion, trying to be sad, and internalizing their feelings. Spending time writing in a journal, creating poetry, etc. Not trying to make a contribution to the world, only themselves (ie: vanity and self-centered behavior). Ask a question - "Where does this get me...where does this help me grow as an individual?"

Get the EMOmug. People who follow the emotional hardcore music scene. Emo is a shortening of emotional and in most cases refers to the style of music. Many people beleive that all emos cut themselves, this is not true. Yes, some emos cut themselves but so do some goths, punks and people who don't follow a particukar trend. Admittedly self harmers do seem drawn to the emo scene but this doesn't mean all emos self harm, most just dress and listen to music to try to seperate themselves from the herd.
Self harming is an act commited by people who either beleive they need punishment, find some releif from emotion through physical pain or suffer from low self esteem. I used to be emo, I cut myself once or twice but only as a response to the constant ridiculing I was subject to.

Get the Emomug. Here's a REAL, NON-STEREOTYPED definition of the word "Emo".
What is emo? Most people view emo as a type of person. Someone who cuts themselves, hates the world, and wears tight clothing. Others view emo as a genre of music including bands such as Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, and Panic! At the Disco. Most people use emo to describe what is really called scene.
What does the word emo mean? Most people believe emo is short for emotional, as in an emotional person or emotional music. Others believe it’s short for emotional hardcore.
Emo cannot mean emotional because then everything would be emo. Everything has emotions- all music, all people. Emo would become an all-encompassing, very vague, word that could be used to describe many things.
The term emo is short for emotive hardcore. It was first used by the members of Rites of Spring in a 1985 interview in Flipside Magazine. Emo is not popular, and there are no mainstream emo bands. You will not hear emo on the radio.
Hopefully this will set everybody straight. **Source!: www.emotivehardcore.com**

Get the Emomug. Emo is linked to a various number of things......
However most of these aren't true. Emo is not a hairstyle, a clothes style or even a youngster cutting themselves.
Emo is a lifstyle. Although some may cut themselves. More than likely they dont. Emo is a younger generation of not-so-understood teens that get noticed by dressing and actied differently. This has been around since the 80's but has not been recognized until the new millenium. We are not wanna be Japanease people and we are not pussies. Most of us are stronger than preps and jocks (emotionally of course). We don't like being targeted for who we are and certainly dont like being called obscene names such as earlier mentioned pussy.We want to be respected and left alone as you would want. We are not a style of music as many of you think. We are a society in ourselves, and if your nice we won't kick your ass and hook your intestines up to our car batteries and drag you behind our car!

A true emo is very moody. They are happy one minute and suicidal the next. We are very quiet around new people and dont get along with preps or chavs very well.
We have a very wide range of music tastes. Most people think we like bands like Bullet For My Valentine and My Chemical Romance(FYI MCR IS NOT EMO!!!,THEY ARE ALTERNATIVE!!!) But we can listen to different music like Fegie, Jeffree Star, and Tupac Shakur (Who was emo)
