Emo

Stupid subculture centered around glorification of sadness/hopelessness with a strong emphasis on tight sweaters/hoodies, thick horn-frame black eyeglasses, mascara/eyeliner on men, among other wack and unfashionable choices. These people are not to be trusted since they're going to self-destruct when the sun goes down and they would rather slash their wrists over the lack of light than flick the fucking switch and be able to see (or in some extreme cases change the light bulb). If they're ever going to show courage and be optimistic, it's always too sentimental and will eventually invariably revert to boo-hoo woe is me woe is the world crying and dying.

Their name stems from "emotional", literally. Nothing wrong with emotions, but these people take it to the Nth degree and are generally unstable.

"Dear Diary,

We are emo, we are beautiful. Life is beautiful...but it makes me cry. Sometimes I get bored and apathetic, maybe I'll cut my wrists again to lament on my artistic struggle and search for an understanding of my endless emotions in this dark void we call life. I guess I'll go check and see if my younger sister's pants will fit me. Hopefully she won't notice, but who cares if she does? Who cares about anything? Nothing matters. I'm going to go cry some more."

Saw this mew at the mall last week
Got the kind of look to make me freak
That long ass hair with the coolest scarf
And those goggles and socks I wanna snarf
He looks so sick like he was dyin'
If I said he wasn't hot, then I'd be lyin'
Please, handsome, just be you
Come on, fuck me, emo mew
Come on, fuck me, emo mew
Come on, fuck me, emo mew
Come on, fuck me, emo mew

Emo

A misunderstood person with a different personality then others, and is often made fun of for being emotional and for some, self harm.

Some are rather nice and are an emo because of their sexuality, some are emo because they like different music and like different clothing and just get called emo, and others are just people who think emo's are cool and will try to mimic them.

Look that emo has a pierce the veil shirt!!
