Someone that thinks they are Emo but aren't. They claim to like the same music and cut themselves although not all emos cut themsleves. So they usually end up dying their hair and going to Hot Topic and buying band shirts although they dont listen to them. They also act depressed.
Emo: Omg did you go to that Black Veil Brides on Sunday? It was totally Awesome! (talking to their Emo friends)
Emo Wannabe: Yea I went I really like the drummer, Charles!
Emo: Umm his name is Christian...
Emo Wannabe: Ohh Yea, I uhh forgot...

Those colourful silicone "cause" bracelets that you wear on your wrist. They interrupt the Emo cutting ritual.
Emo 1: "Dude. I was totally going to cut my wrists today, but my Livestrong bracelet got in the way."

Emo 2: "Dude! It's because you were wearing your Emo Seatbelt!"

usually black with random splurges of bright coloured highlights, (blonde streaks at the front), the "shag" cut, with the "emo sweep" at the front, so only one eye is visible for most parts, also cut short in the back, styled with spikes, and the "sweep" at the front.

A person who tries to fit in with the emo label just for attention or popularity (which doesn't make sense because emo people aren't supposed to be popular)

Anyway, here are some ways to spot an emo poser:

1. Act depressed 24/7, even when nothing is wrong in their lives
2. Cut themselves purposefully... and then show it to everyone
3. Must always adopt the complete emo look: dark dyed hair with sidebangs, very tight pants, an emo band t-shirt (like Hawthorne Heights) at least 3 items from Hot Topic, and of course, eyeliner
4. Has a rich family
5. Music lists ALWAYS include the following bands: My Chemical Romance, Hawthorne Heights, The Used, Simple Plan, Fall Out Boy, AFI, and more
6. Throws emo song lyrics around on their myspace/xanga/livejournal/etc., usually as their display name
7. On the above-mentioned sites, include pictures of themselves with the typical myspace angle (weird camera aim which barely allows for the viewer to see the person except for their hair, or at least one of their eyes)
8. Only talk to people who look just like themselves (and may get rejected if they see how much of a poser he/she is)
9. Are anorexic or have some other mental disorder, usually involving their self-image (because all emo posers think they're ugly)
10. Complain about their "hard lives" all the time

In short, emo posers are the reason that everyone hates emos. They're the ones who act like this, so people think that all emos do it too. In reality, true emo people act like themselves, and the only way that they are all alike is that they tend to have a primarily emotional personality. That's it. It has nothing to do with being depressed or mental disorders, or listening to all the same bands, unless you have a good reason for being depressed, did not force the mental disorder on yourself, or listen to the bands because you actually like them.

Though, in reality, I personally do not like most of the bands. They're not in my taste. I'm not gonna insult them though. Only the people who listen to them just because everyone else does, AKA the posers.
Emo poser: omg I'm SOOO depressed, becuz liek look at my ristz their soo bloody huh?!1

Emo: What the hell? You obviously did that on purpose.

Emo poser: Nono no wai I did not! I liek totally got sad and My Cemikul Romanze is mah fave band EVUR!! All mah otha frendz lizzen to them!

Emo: ... Ok, you know what? How about you just keep cutting? It'll be the solution to not only your problem but to ours too. Our reputation will finally be saved!

Emo poser: Oo yea! Good idea! Now Im gunna go take my super-expensiv nife and cut mah ristz while lizzenin to Hawforn Haytz!

Emo: Yea. Hurry up. You need to bleed more. Or, how about you let ME do it for you?

Most people stereotype emo people as edgy teens that hate everything,unsurprisingly that's not true most emo people are only people that are just emotional and express emotions through music,art ect.
True there are emo people that are the Cringy teens but let it be known that they are the minority of the emo community and that most of us are actually nice people that are just more in touch with our emotions then "normal people".
Some (not all) emo people actually are deppresed so be careful if you talk about that as a joke as some people might take offence.
Also don't be afraid to be emo as it actually can help you a lot to relieve stress and to all around feel better about yourself as a person,work with your emotions not against them because at the end of the day emotions is what makes us human.
Emo hater:Look at him he's so emo
