Emo

A genre of music that is slightly hard-core, maybe a small amount of screaming or shouting. Emo is not a type of person that wears dark clothes and dark make-up. Emo is also not a person that self-harms, or whom is depressed.

Emo is short for Emo-core which was a joke made by a band in the 1980's, which was then abbreviated to Emo. A girl killed herself and a writer for the Daily Mail said that the music was influential to her death and she was "Emo".

Correct:
Person 1: I love this song
Person 2: Yeah, it's in the Emo genre, right?

Wrong:
Person 1: Wow, what's with the dark make-up and stuff?
Person 2: She's such an Emo.

Emo skeleton

Dresses like a material girl but really has the fashion sense of a blind autistic-monkey; a set of clothes a blind person would cry at. Has the educational level of a 4 th grade sped kid with the same attention span. The earrings of a bad bitch, but the bigger the hoops the bigger the hoe- never turns in her work- also smells like mustard gas making want to throw up. Her voice is auditory assault on my ears making me bleed more than a murder victim. Long legs but slow as hell (in the head too). As thin as a stick as a stick on my walks contemplating my friendship with her. Made teachers want to retire. Hair like my grandmas ball of yarn.

Wow Isabella makes me want to drop out she must be an emo skeleton also a black pencil is brighter than her future!
