Emo

An extremely annoying label for kids who do nothing but sulk about their life for attention and sympathy. (:
"So, last night I got in a fight with my parents, and I had an EMO moment again. They like, took away my phone. Now I have no way of talking to my boyfriend! THEY JUST HATE ME! No one understands me! It's not fair! I cried myself to sleep and cut myself like, 3 times.. Maybe people will be nice to me once they see how fucked up my life is.."

Emo

Emo means 'emotional.'
It does NOT mean that the person cuts themself;
they might, but lets not jump to conclusions.

Emo is also a genre of music. Also, Punk.

For example:

-Hawthorn Heights
-Amber Pacific
-Cute Is What We Aim For
-My Chemical Romance
-Mayday Parade
-Taking Back Sunday
-Panic! At The Disco
-Paramore
etc.

Personallly, I like them all (:

** You are not emo if you call yourself emo. **

-People who take pictures of themselves and put 'emo' as the caption are called 'posers.'

-Posers are people who act emo to be cool

or to be in the social scene as emo,
they only want attention.

-Emo people do not complain about EVERYTHING and they are not LONERS.

-When people cut their wrists it normally happens as a teenager and it will not happen as an adult, the person usually grows up and realizes they shouldn't be hurting themselves because of someone else.
*Goes on myspace and updates status*
xHIxIMxEMOx: " Im such a depressed emo kid, im gonnnna go cut myself. :'( "

^^^ That is called a poser(:

They want attention. (and comments on their status because its sooo dramatic) hah

emo

people who hate themselves and whine too much about the little things. their hair covers most of their face and they try to be original eventhough they arent. they cut their wrists and call everyone who calls themselves emo "posers"
but overall they are really nice people, they just have issues.

Emo

"Emo IS a music genre that started in the 1980's called "Emocore". Some people like to dress in the "Emo" style. The society thinks about them as failures; that they are not strong enough to hide their emotions, they're sensitive, shy, introverted, and often quiet. The term 'emo' itself is used nowadays as an insult. Emocore is COMPARED (not is) with pop boy bands of 1990s. Critics cast the music as lacking any artistic merit and that the fashion is just a fashion used to drive girls attention. The ones who are emo not because they feel it, but because they like to be trendy are named 'posers'. A big percent of the current emo subculture is formed by posers. Emo subculture is acused that it is celebrating self-harm. in recent years the media has linked the Emo scene closely with issues of cutting and self-harm, but in reality there is no medical or cultural link that connects it to any one social group. Self-harming stems from some serious mental illnesses, namely borderline personality disorder, and is also carried out by people who are suffering, or who have suffered from significant trauma or emotional upset. Cutting is also usually linked to other psychological symptoms such as depression, social phobia and extreme anxiety. When you look at the medical reasons behind cutting and self-harming, it is impossible to suggest it affects any one group of individuals, and so claiming that somehow a fundamental part of the Emo culture is very misleading."

Random jerk (AKA medias doggie)- HAHA!! EMO FAG!!!

Poser emo- Oh my god! You are the reason I am so sad! You make me miserable and I am going to cut myself. (I do not judge you, you are human)

Real emo- *Flips off* go fuck yourself or come at me. I'll put your teeth to the curb and spit in your ignorant face, asshole.
