emo kid

An emo kid, is someone who listens to emo music and wears the emo style.

For boys the emo style is:
black, or multi-Colored hair, with side bangs
tight band t-shirts, or shirts with funny slogans
tight jeans
lip ring (usually)
eyeliner (sometimes)
studded belt, or a sparkly girly belt
converse all stars (hi-top or lo-top) checkered vans, or any other type of vans for that matter.
tons of braceletes, and wristbands

Emo Girl:
chin lengh or longer hair
black or white blonde hair
headbands in hair (usually in a bright color)
jeans
tight band t-shirts or brand name clothes
studded belts, sometimes girly belts
converse all stars (hi-top or low-top) checkered vans or any other type of vans
lip ring or septum piercing or nose ring (sometimes)
necklaces, big beads, chokers, bracelets, and wristbands.

Emo Kids usually dress in the style stated above and they listen to emo or screamo music. Examples of emo and screamo bands are:
dashboard confessional, taking back sunday, alexisonfire, juliana theory, silverstein, etc.

Please note:
Emo Kids aren't always depressed, they don't all have eating disorders, and emo does not mean you are a cutter.
'Normal' Kid: Hey! Look its Jill the stupid depressed emo girl!
Jill/Emo Girl: I AM NOT DEPRESSED!!
'Normal' Kid: Why do you listen to songs that say cut my wrists then you stupid cutter?
Jill/Emo Girl: I like the music...its the same as you listening to songs saying I shoot hoes...just because a song says something doesn't mean the person who listens to it copies it...so go away now.
'Normal' Kid: Okay then (mumbles under breath) stupid emo kids

emo bands

Bands that, much like emo kids themselves, all look and sound very similar. In fact, there may be pretty much no difference between Emo Band A and Emo Band B. That's how annoying it can get.

Emo bands may have a lot of potential, but sadly, it is all wasted because they try too hard to fit under one stereotype, just like the average emo kid.
Characteristics of emo bands:
1. The singer sounds just like Adam Lazzara
2. Some of the lyrics may be screamed
3. Poppy sound
4. Very simple guitar riffs
5. Two or more of the band members have "emo hair," and the singer is usually one of them
6. Don't forget eyeliner
7. Lyrics include the weirdest, most nonsensical-sounding metaphors ever, something along the lines of "My little period at the end of your sentence..."
8. Songs are about relationships or life in general - they are NEVER optimistic, though they may be upbeat
9. The band members will always deny the "emo" label, much like emo kids (once again)
10. Usually disappear after two or three albums, or with some cases, even one, but not before at least one of their songs becomes a radio hit

step 1: don't wash your hair for several days/weeks/years

step 2: dye you hair black and/or red (if your truly emo you could use your own blood)

step 3: get way too much gel and and completely fuck up the back of your head

step 4: arange your fringe so that you can only see out of your left eye (thus halving the ammount of misery you have to see in your stupid emo life)
voilla! you now have emo hair

emo 1: how deep is this cut?
emo 2: don't know, ive got no depth perception

emo boy

An emo boy is a male who has bought into the MTV fad of over sensitivity. Usually, the male is of college age and is going through "the motions". Hopefully, in time, the emo boy with grow out of his confusion and become a regular man.

It's a popular misconception that emo boys are more in touch with their emotions than non-emo males. It's generally a drama paradox, showing more emotion that one has.

An emo boy is usually seen wearing: Jet black hair, black clothing, thrift store clothing with misc. logos, Chuck Tailors (or similar), black army style caps, studded belt, tight pants

The emo male is usually well groomed and metrosexual.
Now I could make fun here but, we're all guilty of buying into things. Everyone is capable of following a fad. So, cheer up emo kid, it's only a growing stage of your life.

emo kid

Annoying adolescents and/or teenagers who insist they are "depressed" but in reality, just want attention. They usually tend to listen to music that involves skinny guys whining and "screaming" about things that supposedly have deep meaning. The drummers of these bands often try to look cool by using a double bass pedle (stop kidding yourselves, you suck). They tend to make fun of any other genre of rock music and only like bands (especially underground ones) until they become popular. Once they're popular "they suck".
They can't admit that they bought an article of clothing in hot topic b/c that would make them a "poseur". <Newsflash: you're a poseur if you shop there and THEN do not admit that you do.>
They also mosh like pussies. If you're going to go into a pit, fucking stop swinging and actually mosh or else you WILL get knocked the fuck down.
Simply put, they just need to stop crying and actually try to see all the great things that they DO have in their lives, instead of whining about that girl who dumped them in 7th grade.
All the little emo kids I hang out w/ are so annoying. All I ever hear them talk about is how great a new band is that no one has ever heard of.. by next week everyone will know all of that band's songs by heart and then no one will like them a week after that.
