A group of people who think that because they have long hair, tight pants, and an attitude that they're better/sadder/more depressed that other people. Really aren't a different subculture, just teens who shop at Hot Topic and look despairingly at you.
David: I'm so emo. I'm dark and bad and apathetic.
Kayla: Grow up. Either go goth or let it go, David.

A sub-genre of rock music closely related to punk.
Other sub-genre's similar or easily mistanken to be emo could be Post-Hardcore or Pop-Punk.
Emo (or "Emo Kids") also refers to people who listen to emo, (usually teenagers). The common stereotype with emo's are that they are deppressed, bisexual, fake, self loathing, dark, sensitive, and extremely associated with self harm. This is not always the case. Yes, some emo's are deppressed, but not all of them. Some are bisexual, others arent. etc, etc, etc... Those stereotypes can apply to other sub cultures, not just emo.
There is a large number of emo kids that arent like that. There are quite a lot of happy, confident emo's.

the definition of temporary. Emo is the belief by adolescents that covering your face with dyed-black hair, wearing skin tight pants, a pink belt and a purple hoodie will help you fit in at school and make more friends.
Emo is a concept so ridiculous and immature to anyone no longer in high school that it inevitably fades away after graduation and the so-called emos take on normal adult lives.
Can anyone picture emo finance man on his way to work on wall street?
or emo grandpa at the nursing home?
or emo dad taking the kids out to a baseball game?
Does any emo reading this really think that he's going to dress and act that way for the rest of his life?

Little Suzy Bjorkman, age 5, visited grandpa emo at the nursing home last sunday. Still sporting dyed black hair covering half his face and talking with an extremely nasally voice he spent the entire sunday spurting out random blobs of nonsense which annoyed the mature nurses incredibly. This was a combination of alsheimers and a lifetime of being emo.
Come on, can any of you actually picture a grandpa emo doing that?
