A member of the emo community has 3 main ingredients.
They are as follows:
1. Blood.
2. Their emo friends' blood.
3. ipod.
They tend to lurk in the dark sides of the hallway along with the lesbians, bisexuals, geeks, and skater punks(faggots).
Their main form of initiation into their group is by:
1. Dying their hair.
2. Covering one eye with their hair.
3. Making their myspace names the lyrics of emo songs.
3B. and constantly changing those names.
3C. Constantly taking pictures of themselves and putting it on their myspace.
4. Emo guys also tend to wear gay jeans that are for girls.
After initiation emos are not allowed to associate with anyone who wears or acts as follows:
1. Everything but Hot Topic
2. Happy thoughts
3. Is not gay.
Emos tend to take 10-15 years to develop from birth, this is why if you are in 5th or 6th grade you probably will not see a very large emo population. Enjoy it while it lasts because once you enter middle school you will begin to get overflowed with the emos.
Disclaimer: I do not experiment on the emos I just see them so much.

Get the Emo mug.emos are just a bunch of silver-spoon-fed, spoiled, middle-class teenagers who act like they're "sooo different" from everybody else because they shop at fucking hot topic and because they don't listen to britney spears (note: i dont like her either and im not emo!!). they hate their lives because they're parents won't get them a new cell phone, and cry themselves to sleep because they're 14 and they're not in love with anybody yet. they pretend to be gay because its "different", not because they are actually homosexual. they spend more than half of their teenage lives on myspace; making it "cool" and "original", even though it just makes them look pathetic. the boys look like fucking girls, and the girls look like dikes. their hair takes up their whole face and they wear tons of eyeliner that makes them look like they have two empty sockets in their head(note: only 2D can pull that off cuz his eyeballs are pushed back into his head). they think they're vampires. and what i think is the weirdest thing of all, they used to love their lives until they started listening to "My Chemcial Romance".

Get the emo mug.1) For whatever reason, a highly controversial word in youth culture and popular culture circles. Probably the definition that can be the most agreed upon is that side of post-hardcore which is melodic and accessible enough for mainstream pop audiences to enjoy. It should be taken into account that most bands who play this type of music are divorced from the art punk tendencies of many of the pioneering post-hardcore bands from the 1980s and 1990s.
2) "Emo" can also refer to the youth subculture that is centered around this particular niche of post-hardcore described in definition 1, which, much like the punk, goth, and hippie subcultures that preceded it, is identifiable by a particular fashion sense (in this case often straight, dyed black hair combed to one side to the point of being asymmetrical in appearance, also horn-rimmed or rectangular eyewear). Unlike the punk and hippie subcultures, at least, there are really no identifiable political or ideological concerns of the Emo subculture, and it is primarily defined by music purchasing habits and outward appearance. However, many members of the Emo subculture, often referred to as emo kids, are often seen as suicidal or suffering from other psychological problems, regardless of whether or not they actually are.
3) Archaically at least to some degree, "emo" is sometimes used to describe nearly all post-hardcore, particularly that which derives stylistically from the sounds pioneered by a number of bands from Washington DC and Maryland in the mid-to-late 1980s. It should be noted, though, that "emo" (then "emocore") was a derogatory term applied to the earliest of these bands by their detractors.

1) It is disputed by few that Jimmy Eat World and Braid are emo bands.
2) In some regions, the emo subculture is cause for moral panic.
3) Guy Picciotto, of pioneering post-hardcore groups Rites of Spring and Fugazi fame primarily, finds it upsetting that he is considered one of emo's founding fathers.

Get the EMO mug.Ok, I really want to get this straight. The ORIGINAL definition of "emo" can be broken down like this:
"Emo" is short for "emotive hardcore," or "emotional harcore." The word "hardcore" is referring to hardcore punk music. Emo is a form of hardcore punk music, although after different "waves" of emo coming and going through the years, there are still some bands that differ from the original emo music that can still be defined as emo.
NOW-
the word "emo" is being used to describe the current sub-culture of the supposed genre of music that is emo, although this current subculture is often found not to listen to real emo music. It is actually true that the original subculture of emo looked completely different from what our perception is now.
Just because somebody dresses or looks "emo" doesn't mean that they cut themselves and act sad all the time. And if they do, it's not always necessarily to get attention. Depression is a real thing and should be taken seriously.
"Emo" kids should be given the same respect that is given to any other kind of person, because we are all people and deserve equal treatment, regardless of how we look and what music we listen to.
