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."

Emo

A emo is a teenager, usually like 14 to 16 years old who is really emotional, listens to really crazy metal/rock music, likes dark, strange and & emotional and expressive things & dresses in black and has a hard time smiling.

There usually lonely and depressed (but not always) and keep a journal and write angsty poems that they plan on making into songs and they might be in a band.

They probably have weird niche taste, like the video game Undertale (& Deltarune to) and listen to My Chemical Romance a lot aggressively.

A accurate depiction of emos is Octavia in the webseries Helluva Boss. (Who is loved by many irl emos for being relatable)
Kid 1: "Hey who's that quite guy with the headphones on all the time blasting the Black Parade?"

Kid 2: "Oh that's just Kurt, he's emo."
