Fake Emo

<small><center>One who tries to be "emo" as it is the new 'hype' and everyone else seems to be 'emo' when really they are just as bad as you. You fake being emo, as you see real emos and think they look cool so decide to copy them when clearly you aren't emo. Fake emo's usually think that by listening to one type of "emo" or "punk" band and knowing one song they are classified as "emo". They also wear black clothes that are clearly from some posho shop. They also pretend to be super depressed and think that slitting your wrists makes you cool even if you aren't depressed.
<small><center> Fake Emo: Eyyy look at me! i'm super depressed, and i cry whenever i hear Simple Plan on the radio as they are sooo punk and their music is super depressing and emotional. the world is against me! blah blah blah! i wear black, im so fricking emo! yeah yeah! i cut my wrist with a fork! :) super emo aye?!
Random Kid From School: Yeah if your so emo, how come your school books are covered in "pussycat dolls" pictures and "hilary duff"
Fake Emo: i , ah , i ah, FUCK you! it isnt my book!

emo hobocore

"Emotional Hobocore" was created by Jeph Jacques of "Questionable Content" fame. In refrence to emo bands that have $90 haircuts, but have so many problems they simply have to put it into written form. Hobocore would be the pinnicle of the movement, as being a hobo would be one who has no job or money and is therefore sorrowful. Emo Hobocore will be the new pop punk.
"That kid is so Emo Hobocore"
"No, thats a real hobo, look, he's peeing on our dog"
