While emo is a form of punk, and used to be a music-based culture (emo stands for 'emotive,' not emotional, you morons) this definition is depicting the two types of modern emo:
1. Mainstream emo: Your typical annoying, greasy-haired whiny teen who thinks that their life sucks, when they honestly don't know what they're talking about. A freaking cult- all of them are obsessed with being unique, and yet they are sucked up by the enormous wave of conformity that MTV created to enslave the stupid ones. Often times will cut themselves for attention, or do something of the like. They feel unappreciated, and 'find themselves' in art and their supposed 'darkness.' Myspace is life for some of them.
2. Other: Just that- a truly depressed person who doesn't fit in, possibly because of mood swings, or trauma in early life. Tries not to fit the aforementioned definition of Mainstream emo; they know it's fake and not really them. These are the people with real artistic skills, and actual talent. Someone with severe Aspergers who refuses to take meds, for instance.

1. Anonymous emo boy digs into his wrists with a razor in the closet, darkly musing on darkness. He realizes later in life that he had made a terrible mistake, being an MTV-slave/ carbon copy with no real identity. But, he's already screwed up his life; taking those anti-depressants that he didn't need got him hooked, and he's in a ward. Now he knows what it's like to be all alone... and he hates it.
2. Anonymous 'Other' is strolling along, hands deep in her pockets. She hums a few bars of a song she can't remember the words to, and rolls her eyes at the group of Mainstreamers, all dressed in black and dark. "What a bunch of f*ckheads," she whispers, traipsing away.

Closely related to Immature. Can be defined as to be the worst possible kind of social status yet impressiveley illustrious.
Basic signs of being emo include:
1. Wearing of clothes from the opposite sex(preferably tight and black)
2. Listening to noise (what they call music) that includes no musicality at all.
3. In some cases, same sex smooches. (Females smooches are hot) Males on the other hand, NOT COOL and TOTALY GAY.
4. They deal with their problems in a very immature manner by cutting (They also say that cutting means coolness) and making compositions/poems and other stuff that wont even pass as reading materials for children.
5. Actually you don't need signs to know what emos look like or wher they are, they are almost anywhere including hell (heaven is off-limits to emos, even Satan hates them but he managed to find a deep hole in hell to keep them away from real people that died).
6. If your reading this and your emo, don't be offended. What you are reading is the real world outside yours.

let me say it again... ITS NOT A NOUN! its an ADJECTIVE!
IF YOU'RE GOING TO VERBALLY ABUSE MY COMPATRIOTS IN PAIN, DO IT RIGHT!
oh and btw...
the pants are not girl pants, they're made for guys.
not all of us cut ourselves.
not all of us sit sobbing all night.
no, not all girls like football captains.

not all of us come from the suburban middle class
some of us are perfectly normal, happy people who happen to wear black, enjoy pain, and have our hair over our eyes.

Get the emo mug.Oh gosh, where to begin.
Emos say that emo isn't what we all know it means.
Emo may have at one point, been emotive hard core, but since language evolves with the times, emo has come to mean a bunch of people who are antidisestablishmentarians, but in doing so, simply give in to the zeitgeist by becoming one with it. Please make a note of it.
