Emo

It's not people who cut themselves, or hate themselves and life. Not people who dress in skinny jeans with hair over their eye and band tee's. Emo came from emotive music and people began saying things like they cut themselves or all they do is cry, when that style became popular. Emo is really just a style of music that has meaning to it. Instead of things like 'Can't Be Tamed by Miley Cyrus' that has no depth, there is songs like 'Miserable At Best by Mayday Parade' that has depth. Basically, emo came about to label people who have a sensitive side.
Typical stereo type.
Person #1- That guy is wearing skinny jeans and isn't smiling, he must be emo.
Person #2- Yeah. He probably cuts himself every night.
*Person 1 and 2 start laughing*

Emo is short for emotional, or emotionally hard-core. It is used to define either hard-core music, a hard-core style of clothing, and even lifestyles. The most common use of the term is to describe one who is clinically depressed, and possibly cuts themselves, writes depressing poetry, seems homosexual, wears eyeliner, usual attire is black,overreacts to small problems often and even writes suicide notes.

Emo

young person who is a fuckin' loser looking for an aceptible way to vent and induce negitive feelings, reactions, and behaviors for no apparent reason other than to gain attention.
Any person who may cut themselves for no other reason than to experience, as a way to release pain, a morbidy more plesurable rush in life....IE Cutting myself makes me feel: more complete, less of a loser, or is done as a form of self punishment. These sorry fucks are EMO. EMO is their name and they either may have infected vaginas or puss oozing dicks. MORE POWER TO YOU FAGGOTS.......OH, YOU HAVE NO POWER

emo

the people that you make fun of because you have nothing better to do.

the people that you think do things for attention, when really, you know nothing about them.

the people that have mood swings.. good or bad, they have them.

the people that no, you may not understand, but that's not always the case.

the people who may be scene, BUT THEY AREN'T THE SAME FUCKING THING.
if a person smiles a lot, but you notice cuts on their wrists & discomfort around certain people, they may be emo.

Emo

Puberty-ridden attention-starved teenagers. They call themselves non-conformists, yet all they do is follow trends. They cry alot and act like pussies (due to further attention deprivation) whenever in public. When not in public, they spend their time taking pictures of themselves in mirrors looking like bitches. Nobody really wants to see that anyway. They all wear tight clothes and excessive amounts of makeup (boys and girls) and write droll and mundane poems about their "horrible" life. You know, the life in which they have food, shelter, and rich parents that love them. That life. Pretty horrible, eh? I personally feel a strong urge to drop-kick them on sight due to the unbearable amount of faggotry they expell.
Emo: I hate my life! I think ill go cut myself so everyone will feel bad for me and ill get attention!
Emo's Parents: But son, all we did was buy you a car!
