Get the Emomug. A derogatory label for someone who is sad. I'm writing this to clear some things up about this label.
1) A person who listens to bands such as My Chemical Romance or Black Veil Brides is NOT "emo"
2) A person who is depressed is NOT "emo"
3) A person who dresses a certain way is NOT "emo".
4) Everybody who seems to make fun of people just for feeling how they feel, or liking what they like, or dressing how they dress, can fuck themselves. You don't see me going around making fun of you for listening to Lil' Wayne or wearing Nikes and playing basketball, now do you? The people you define as "Emo" have never done anything to you, and therefore you should stop shoving your head up your ass. Making fun of someone for self-harming or telling them to kill themselves is unacceptable and disgusting. Think about what kind of human that makes you.
5) If people call you emo, or you're suicidal, know that I'm always here to talk. They're not any better than you and you don't deserve the shit you get. Stay strong, and don't let them get to you. Don't be ashamed for liking a certain type of music or dressing a certain way. You be you, and don't let anyone bring you down for it.

Ignorant Person: omg!!! ur soooo emo!!! go kill urself u faggot lol lil wayne is so much better than black veil brides
Smart Person: Being "emo" doesn't define me or my life. I can listen to whatever music I want. I will respect you if you will respect me.

Get the Emomug. My definition of Emo is someone who tends to like darker colors like black. Most Emo people usually die their hair black / Wear black all the time and they are mostly Depressed , Unhappy. Their very sensitive and emotional. But we shouldn't look at people who are Emo differently because they are still human just likes us.
