EVERYTHING YOU HAVE READ ABOUT SCENE KIDS IS OUTDATED. It's all written in 05 through 07, and everything's changed. no more brutal and no more gross hair, etc.
NEW KIDS:
_wear plaid shirts, band shirts, v-necks
_skinny jeans, cute mini skirts
_flats, converse, vans
_dont normally tease their hair. the older ones (16+) do sometimes, but it's not huge or obnoxious.
_hair is dyed any color, brown and red are becoming popular
_coontails are not a necessity. some have them just for fun
_still go to shows but some just go in random public places and act stupid
_some have myspace names involving band names/songs (bring carly the horizon; hey jake, whats your name again?)
_ages 14 to 20+
_it's cool to be a photographer, site model, and band member (deathcore, screamo, and metalcore. anything else isn't scene. it's just normal)
NEW SCENE BANDS
_The Devil Wears Prada
_Bring Me the Horizon (obvz)
_Brokencyde
_Millionaires
_A Skylit Drive
_Sky Eats Airplane
_3oh!3
*anything crunk, or with a dude screaming incessantly. occassionally electronic or acoustic weasels its way in.
New scene kids dress kind of indie now. Some still look brutal but without the crazy hair. Piercings are still common, as is MySpace usage. Photoshopped pictures no longer look as overdone, depending on who the person is. No one worships scene queens. In fact, most of the new kids have no idea who they are. Gore, hello kitty and diamonds are not obsessions. The new thing to have on your profile is a random photography picture or a phrase proclaiming personal beliefs, or saying something along the lines of "I'M NOT EMO OR SCENE, IM JUST MYSELF".
THE POSEURS:
_look emo
_have bad dye jobs
_wear thick gross eyeliner
_pierce their lips crookedly and get them infected
_listen to emo music (MCR, etc)
_have pages loaded down with gloomy bear and stupid dinosaur/robot junk. "rawrrr" is a common phrase.
_myspace name involves an EMO BAND (my chemical katie; lorrie! at the disco) or its a brutal rip-off (sarah sinister, victoria vicious)
_ages 10-13 usually (some kids within those ages are legit though, dont discriminate against age, ya digg?)
My advice: don't read the entries for scene unless it's from 2008 or 2009. otherwise, you'll end up looking lstupid & everyone will ask what happened to your hair. but if you wish, go ahead and look completely br00tal and hXc. personally, i love that style. not everyone can pull it off though, including myself.
BOTTOM LINE: KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING BEFORE YOU CHANGE. obv.

Get the scene kids mug.by Japanese motherfucker September 10, 2015
Get the kid bengala mug.An emerging style coming from South Florida. It's like a cross between goth, hipster, raver, and ghetto. Usually seen wearing a lot of black, with vivid colours. They have a very broad taste in music but they listen to a lot of dubstep, rock, and a bit of rap.
They almost always self-identify with the shady name, so they probably have the word shady on their person.

Get the Shady kids mug.A euphemism meaning "one must handle carefully"
To treat someone with a different set of standards, different language, different expectations.
To soft-talk an individual, sparing them the gory details of reality.

Get the Kid Gloves mug.by the 163rd emo kid August 5, 2008
Get the emo kid mug.The 'American Badass'. Just from that you know he is the shit. From Early Mornin' Stoned Pimp to Cold and Empty everything he does is badass and sweet. He is also a huge pimp. He is prolly pimping your woman right now. Kid Rock is fresh.

Get the Kid Rock mug.an emo kid isn't someone who sits in the back of class crying all day about how horrible the world is.they also don't sit at home cutting their wrists either{some do but not everyone}we're not morbidly depressed or obsessed with hurting ourselves.we do actually have the capacity to be happy.emo means emotional.we're more in touch with our feelings than your average person.we don't hate the world but rather see it as beautiful but also see how humanity has destroyed it{deal with it}the general bulk of a true emo kid's life is typically music.we listen to whatever we feel like because we like it not because it's"the current cool song" you can't define a true emo kid,they define themselves.
That emo kid staring out of the window writing poetry on the bus is the only who'll ever understand.
