emo 

Teenagers who think its cool to dye their hair black, not wash it and then sweep it to the side of their face. They listen to depressing music to make themselves feel better about their depressing lives. They also think they have all the problems in the world when they are actually boffins who scrounge off of mummy and daddy and live in a big mansion. But for attention they think it's cool to slit their wrists and then go and broadcast it. They wear tight black jeans, converses, scarfs (even when it's hot), thick rimmed geeky glasses, and all look like clones of eachother. When they are not self harming they skip around town pissing everyone off with their high pitching yelling. They like to go to crappy gigs and chat about how shit their lives are. They hate everyone apart from eachother.

Fair game for a large group people who feel compelled to be awesome and point out the obscene amounts of definitions for this article.
Quadruple-digits aren't a big deal; considering that three of those digits are probably people like you.

"Oh SNAPS! 'Emo' has over a thousand definitions. I must point this out to the UrbanDictionary community! As though the people who intend to read them all haven't noticed. C:"

The other 1200 definitions explain the term itself and its origins better than I can here, but it is important to note that the music and accompanying culture currently labeled "emo" by the press and popular media (as well as by the kids themselves) is essentially the same music and culture we all would have simply referred to as "alternative" a decade ago, and which has been shoveled into the media-created pigeonhole formerly occupied by the (arguably artificial) subgenre of "alternative" music known as "grunge" back in the '90s.

My sister's boyfriend swears he's too emo to watch MTV, but I know he got his Vans at the mall.
