An absolute oxymoron as "emo" is a false music genre created from drab bits of other music subcultures into a completely unoriginal music/fashion statement, whose adherents pride themselves on contrived self-loathing, exaggerated negative emotion in general, and looking like other emos, while "punk" is a distinct musical subculture that is an angry and creative rejection of "normal" society and "fad culture" in general. Emo fools also disregard the fact that all music is emotional, and instead delude themselves into believeing that only negative emotions are important.
Many emos attempt to make a direct connection between punk rock and the flacid emo trend. While "emotional hardcore" punk rock did exist in the early 1980s, the word "emotional" is a term that refered to the entire emotional spectrum and has nothing to do with today's unoriginal, cookie-cutter, fashion/musical trend.
Saying someone is an emo punk is like saying an animal is a monkey-fish.

That guy thinks he is an emo punk, but he is just a self-deluded trend-follower with an emotenuce haircut, little-girl's pants, and an Exploited T-shirt.

The retarded, bastard step-cousin of punk. Sure it came from punk roots, but it goes against most punk morals and standards, such as courage and standing up for what you believe in, making the doppleganger to punk.

1) ANY PUNK EMO BITCH who takes the definitions on urban dictionary. com seriously. 2) Anyone that cuts themselves and cries into their scarf in july. 3) Anyone who thinks anyone else gives a shit about what emo really is or where the fuck it comes from. no one cares... seriously.
average dude: emo people are pussies who can't get laid and cry about it while wearing a scarf in a heat wave and listening to DASHBOARD on their iPod while driving their FAGIO scooters around.
EMO PUNK BITCH: actually... thats not what emo is at all. dashboard is actually a scremo old school post modern fagcore, not real emo, which actually came about in the early 90's when some punk rocker's girlfriend cut his balls off and left him for a metal head, so he decided to cry about it and write a song.... no one fucking cares you emo twat.

A person who in appearance seems to be emo (black hair, black clothes, skinny jeans, etc.) but listens to punk music and personality wise has more in common with a punk.
Emo: looks like all of their friends, listens to the music the radio tells them to listen to, whiny, wimpy
Punk Emo: tough attitude, anti-fascist, educated, original

stranger: hey emo kid, go cut yourself!
punk emo: fuck that, i'll cut you! (and they proceed to do so)

The horriblest of horrible genres in a failing mtv music community. When you hear one of the few bands that have found a way to achieve this style of utterly crappy ass bottom of the shit in the toilet scum of the earth 'music', you would have a good sense to bash your head into the radio/tv/satantalking and end the sound by either breaking the device, destroying your head, or a combination of the two. Either would be a million times better than listening to this crap.

A 14 year old who wears black cloths, makeup and newrocks; listens to crappy pop-punk bands; and can't wait to show you his latest bit of 'self harm'.
