emo

basically means you listen to different punk bands, and (or) screamo, if thats what you like. It has nothing to do with cutting, but although some emo's include cutting because cutting is an emotional disorder where you feel relief in hurting yourself due to internal feelings, but caused externally. Most emos are very shy at first, but optimistic when you begin to get to know them, they are often judged because of what they wear. And to be honest, being emo is just a style. Just like preppy is a style, and grunge is a style.

Alot of people tend to think lead singer of the band BLACK VEIL BRIDES andy biersack is emo, but he isn't...he just dresses that way. He's also reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy sexy.

But the whole stereotype thing started with fucking myspace, so......

sally: Hey, are you emo all of a sudden or somethin'?

emo

Emo is a music style. Some describe it as teenagers who are always depressed and cut themselves. To call someone emo would be saying that they are music. To say, "Hey you emo kid" would be improper. The correct way to use emo in a sentence would be, "I'm into this emo music" Emo is none other than a style of music. To say otherwise would be rude. Using emo as an insult is stereotypical.

Nevershoutnever is one of the nations biggest emo sensations.

emo

A person who has a lot of emotion and likely cries over issues that most people would shrug off. A person who can also be angry at many aspects of their life. Being a true emo person has absolutely NOTHING to do with clothing style, hair style, the people they associate with, or how they talk. You are not an 'emo' or acting 'emo' if you think that being an 'emo' means wearing black, having some multi-coloured or crazy hairstyle, cutting, talking about death, or wearing tight clothes ECT. In other words, a true emo could be viewed as a person who is overly sensitive on the sadness/happiness spectrum.

"look at that dude crying over the movie 'Titanic'. He is a real emo."

emo

Emo. A sub culture of well off, white, middle class, suburbanite, teenage/twentysomethings, that don't have any real cause for stress in their lives. As this is seen as unacceptable in societies where self proclaimed victimization is seen as a cause and excuse for any possible act. Emo's hence resort to bemoaning their predicment (Otherwise known as emotional masterbation), when 95% of the worlds poulation would quite gladly kill them for what these little twats have handed to them. They also find/express their individuality by dressing and acting like all the other twats which call themselves emo.

Emo people who cut their wrist sideways when everybody knows you do it with the vain if you mean business.
