Emo

Emo is a music scene started in the mid '80s, as an offshoot of punk. Emo is, despite stereotypes, not all about cutting and suicide and crying. Emo is simply EMOtional. It's a music genre, and a state of mind.

People often hate on Emo because it's not "normal" or because it's cooler than them. These people are not cool. If someone insults you because you are a true emo, just ignore them or make a witty, intelligent comeback.

Emo is the feeling you get when:
- you hear the certain piano note
- you hear a heavy rain coming from north
- you spill down sugar

- you poke yourself in the eye with eyeliner
And many more.
