emo

People who need to get a life and dont usually have any real problems. the style originates from music. the thing about emo people is that they have a problem with preps dressing the same and buying expensive clothes, when they do the same thing dressing in black and buying pants that r like 40 $ when the look extreamly ugly.

Emo

emos don't get depressed they get sangry its like angry and sad, but anyway they sit in the dark slitting their wrists because they think it'll help their supposed problems in life. like "oh my god i've got a pimple" is a normal reaction an emo goes "A PIMPLE! I HATE YOU!" and retreats to their rooms for the rest of the day to cry and moan about, the lies the government cover over and how everyone picks on them because they are different, but how are they different if all emos dress the same!

Emo

A subculture common to kids born post 1987 who want to identify as a 'punk' but have little knowledge of the origins of the word 'punk'. More than likely they grew up listening to other soft music like the Backstreet Boys and Christina Aguilera, but realised when they reached high school that this was no longer cool. So they start listening to bands like My Chemical Romance and Panic at the Disco or Jared Leto's band because they feel morose and suicidal and that their lives are not worth living. They then start dying their hair black and wearing 1990's punk clothing (skate shoes, heavy chain belts etc) usually consisting of black, red or white. They see themselves as being 'goths' because boys apply eye makeup reminiscent of Robert Smith from the Cure, but highly unlikely whether they actually know who this is. They believe they are being 'alternative' and 'edgy' however they are overwhelmingly conformist as they all look the same, dress the same and listen to extremely soft core, pansy, fluffy pop music disguised as 'punk'.
"My son is trying to look like Jared Leto, wearing makeup and listening to Fall Out Boy all the time, I think he's become an emo!"

emo

Emo is a person usually under 20 years old. They intentionally cut or hurt them selves to relieve emotional pain, and bring it onto their wrists or other body parts. They do this because there are probably big problems in their life; a loved one died/ left, bullying, family issues ect. Most emos do not tell you they are, or make it obvious. Therefor if they do they are probably saying it for attention.

The emo look; skinny jeans, tight sweaters, band shirts, converse shoes, side swept hair covering an eye, eyeliner, perhaps numerous peircings.

Music; soft rock or punk, screamo
Today i saw her wrists and she admitted she was emo.
