Interacting with an Emo

Emo Guy: Dude you listen to Emo music?

Emo Punk Guy: Yeah I do listen to Emocore

Emo Guy: What are your fav bands? Mines are My Chemical Romance, Pierce the Veil and Sleeping with Sirens

Emo Punk Guy: Cool I know those bands, but listen to bands such as Rites of Spring, Moss Icon and I Hate Myself, but I do listen to other types of Emocore

Emo Guy: Great!

Now interacting with a Punk

Punk Guy: Hey do you listen to punk rock?

Emo punk: Yeah I do

Punk Guy: Really? Just to be clear I don't mean Pop Punk

Emo Punk: Well I don't have a problem with Pop punk I think it's alright, but hell yeah I listen to Punk Rock such as The Sex Pistols, Ramones, The Clash, Bad Religion and Black Flag

Punk Guy: Wow, awesome I thought you were a poser, but guess not!

Get the Emo Punk mug.

Emo

Emos are usually teenagers who listen to bands such as My Chemical Romance (MCR) and Fall Out Boy (FOB). They are usually depressed and love depressing others with their daily bitching about how everything/everyone sucks. Most emos self harm.
You would find that the typical emo wears stripey or skull-patterned shirts with skinnies and converse. To match their horrific taste in clothing, their makeup is usually overdone and very dark.
Both female and male emos have a fringe covering one eye. All emo males are homosexual.

EXAMPLE 1
A: OMG! Do you like my new top?
B: Ew! That's so emo!

EXAMPLE 2
A: I hate my life!
B: Stop being such an emo!

Get the Emo mug.

Emo

There are two types of emos. One considers itself genuine and the other a poser. They are virtually indistinguishable and both are equally tiresome to anyone who has managed to mature past using "rawr" and making claw hands.

So and so dresses like me and likes the same music, but they're not a real emo. They just saw it on tv and thought it was cool.
