Emo

A person who cries on March 22nd, laugh uncontrollably while looking at milk and can't understand any lyrics from Fall Out Boy because shit, we don't understand why Patrick is singing like he got peanut butter in his mouth.

This could also go term by a person who only shops in Hot Topic and wear band merch.

An emo could be seen during daily sacrifices of getting MCR back because GODDAMN WE NEED OUR BOYS BACK, PLEASE GERARD I'M BEGGING YOU.
Person 1: hey... What the fuck are you doing?

Emo: *bloody hands and is drawing a pentagram with The Black Parade album in the middle while some random dude is tied up on a pole close to the pentagram crying because he shall be sacrificed for the sake of the reunion* ... nothing

"Real Emo" only consists of the dc Emotional Hardcore scene and the late 90's Screamo scene. What is known by "Midwest Emo" is nothing but Alternative Rock with questionable real emo influence. When people try to argue that bands like My Chemical Romance are not real emo, while saying that Sunny Day Real Estate is, I can't help not to cringe because they are just as fake emo as My Chemical Romance (plus the pretentiousness). Real emo sounds ENERGETIC, POWERFUL and somewhat HATEFUL. Fake emo is weak, self pity and a failed attempt to direct energy and emotion into music. Some examples of REAL EMO are Pg 99, Rites of Spring, Cap n Jazz (the only real emo band from the midwest scene) and Loma Prieta. Some examples of FAKE EMO are American Football, My Chemical Romance and Mineral EMO BELONGS TO HARDCORE NOT TO INDIE, POP PUNK, ALT ROCK OR ANY OTHER MAINSTREAM GENRE
emo is a musical genre.

Emo

What people think/see: people who wear a lot of black and have a lot of eyeliner, pretty quiet and a tad scary, probably super depressed and freaky they listen to music about death and want the world to end.

What people don’t see/real definition: people who are most comfortable in darker, less revealing clothes, people who like song that have meaningful/emotional lyrics but also have good music. People who are shunned a lot because they look different even though they aren’t generally that mean/dark.

Sometimes emos are depressed and sometimes they aren’t. (Just like every other categorization of human being.) emos are more in touch with their emotional side and tend to understand deeper more abstract philosophical ideas, not because they’re morbid, but because they’re intelligent and they understand things other people can’t. They often are misunderstood and choose to express themselves with poetry/music.
“That guy but be goth and like depressed or something he’s wearing all black and being super creepy isn’t he corner.”

“Nah he’s emo. Let’s go talk to him I bet he’s just a little shy and awkward. He’s probably an interesting person.”
