emo

Emo is a sensitive person who acts tough but is hurting inside. My chemical romance is goth not emo and emos cut themselves because they can't hurt and get rid of the problem causing them pain. The other definitions are retarded, take it from a real emo.
A person who dresses in black and cuts their wrist, they are hurting inside and have scars on their arms. Emo

emo

A subculture that borrows heavily from punk, goth and metal. Lacking the interest to actually delve any deeper than fashion and body language the subculture is shallow and empty of ideological substance, cultural history, and original creativity. Popular media and urban folklore attribute the name, "emo" to the word, "emotion" or "emotive." Both incorrect. In the 1980's when this subculture was emerging the response to the appearance and behavior was compared to the comedian, Emo Phillips. The reference caught on, unfortunately the definition never caught up. Punks were the originators of the "emo" reference, which was quickly accepted by goths, metal heads and all tribes hardcore. It is hard to accept that a bunch of punks would have selected the term, "emotional" or "emotive" to insult a group of softcore punks. The truth is that the idiotic humor practiced by the comedian and his idiotic appearance were the inspiration for the insult.
"Yo, that kid looks like emo phillips! Hey emo, I'm gonna kick your ass!" Circa 1980's

Emo

So obviously a lot of people don't know what the hell they are talking about, even the antagonist in this story, Chelsea, who thought she had hit the nail on the head. While she did list and site some ACTUAL emo bands, she also completely missed mentioning the one TRUE emotive hardcore band, who originally described their music in such a manner leading way to the entire, misrepresented and misinterpreted genre. That band would be Alkaline Trio. They truely "spear-headed" the genre. So Chelsea, you were close but you got your facts from the wrong source evidently. And for the most part, while undeniably humorous, the rest of you are retards. Good day.
Alkaline Trio founded emo, and they aren't proud of the associations made with it currently.
