Get the emo mug.although you say that "emo" isn't a term that means "tight pants, sidebangs and diluted, meaningless metaphores" etc, surely if people commonly use the word "emo" to describe all that shit, then the word "emo" really does mean "tight pants, sidebangs and diluted, meaningless metaphores" because that is how it has come to be interpreted. That's called ETYMOLOGY, dumbass, and it's precisely what this site is designed for!
> He is sooo emo
* yeah. Eeeemooo...eeemooo!
Thus a person is labelled as "emo" and the word "emo" is used to describe that type of person. savvy?

Get the emo mug.an over-thought style with more haters then barrack obama. "emo" today contains people who cut themselves (cutters), people who are sad, people with choppy hair, and people who dress a certain way.
SHUT UP!!!
emo is basically a group of people who show their EMOtions in public. Despite popular beleif, they usually have a reason:
abuse
rape
heartbreak
and feeling trapped are common in my own friends.
ANOTHER type of emo is the music, although it doesn't sound good to most people, they are lyrics emos can relate to. because if you are very sad at the time,
"i HATE everything about you! WHY do i LOVE you?" (3 days grace)
sounds a hell of a lot better than
"there's a she-wolf in the closet" (shakira)
or even
"baby are you down, down, down, down down?" (jay sean)
its basically a point of view where most try to cheer themselves up, emos will try to forget when they were happy so when they're sad it doesn't seem so bad.

"what? you should know- you're emo too!"
"fuck off you're the reason people hate me poser!"

Get the emo mug.Emo is something that a lot of people hate and god knows why. There's nothing wrong with it and people need to grow up. Quit putting emo and gothic in the same category they are completely different. I think people should know everything about something if they are going to hate it, I mean what's the point in hating something you know nothing about? So get a life, get off emo's case and worry about something worth while, and if you continue to dwell on it, then go have a cry about it and become what you people assume to be emo.

Get the emo mug.a depressing poet philosopher and song writer, this group of often teenage people, sit round in circles and get drunk. when bored at home, we get depressed, and come up with grudges against people, but rather than hurting that person we hurt ourselves. we even have our own style of music, witch is always emotional and some say (me) origionates from the 80's style music.
the brief definition is emotional punk rocker.

Get the emo mug.Middle-class to rich white people, between the ages of 14 to 27 who listen to gay bands such as taking back sunday ans bullet for my valentine,in an attempt to express their individualism with something that everyone else does, who think that the whole worlds against them, even though nothing in their life justifies their emo-ness.
"The world hates me because I'm Emo!"
"Friends are only people who have not stabbed you in the back yet.Other Emo's understand."

Get the Emo mug.emo simply means "emotional".
Most people believe it is the type of clothing worn by people (usually teens). But in reality it is just a shortened word for emotional. People who wear "Hollister" and "Abercrombie" can be emo as well. The whole tight genes on guys and dyed hair is actually the scene.
