Okay, so there are two very different definitions for the label 'emo'.
First version (usually used by non-emos): Emos are attention seekers who live regular lives like every other teenager in Britain but cannot handle the strain as well as everyone else. They say that they are individuals, yet listen to ‘emo music’, hang out in ‘emo groups’ and buy ‘emo clothes’ with their pocket money. They hang out in dark rooms generally ignoring the happy things in life and talk about how depressed they are all the time. Most lie about cutting themselves in order for people to feel sorry for them without actually experiencing any pain at all. Others do it as an ‘initiation’ ceremony in order to become fully emo. ‘Cutting’ is a fad – what on earth does it help? You feel sad, so you cut yourself to make you feel… better? They don’t appreciate what they have, and do not realise how bad other peoples' lives are in comparison to their own. Emo is just an ever-increasingly popular ‘group’ which people want to be part of. It is a group for kids without an identity, looking for a bit of melodrama and ‘deeper levels of understanding’. To be honest, the kids who REALLY have a life not worth living aren’t even in the emo club – they just try to get through each day until it gets better.
Second version (usually used by TRUE emos – i.e. those who actually have a reason to be depressed): Kids who have had the misfortune to go through circumstances which are incredibly depressing. For example, parental divorce, death of a loved one, and loneliness. They listen to music which explains how they feel, enjoy hanging around with people who understand how they feel, and buy clothes that express to the world about how they feel. Only some kids cut themselves. Cutting can become addictive, and it distracts from the inner pain. It can be hard when youre labelled in the street because of what you wear, and can sometimes make depression worse. Being a ‘half-emo’ can also mean that you just like black and emo clothes and haircuts, and enjoy gigs and mosh pits. Some people that you like because theyre genuinely nice people, could be emo, and fun to hang around with.
Nearly every single teenager has wanted some form of attention or feeling of belonging at some time or other, and being emo could be the solution to some. Don’t hate people because of what they are labelled. Get to know them – they may be more like you than you think.

Get the EMO mug.Emo (Short for Emotional hardcore) is mostly miss understood and is pretty over rated by many ppl, so what if emo's are emotional so is every over fucker in this god forsaken world as well as emo's alone so get over it. At least the genre of emo comes from a decent background in which its foremost creation is closely related to and has had inspiration coming from the punk genre the one thing that changed rock forever during the 70's. Emo is just another newer version of punk thats not as hardcore but has a more emotional attachment to its type of style and genre of music And emo replaces the old romantics that were originally the emo's of there time look it up). Yeah ok I'll give it to ppl that most emo ppl will try and over rate themselves with things that are emotionally tied to them when of course they really don't have nothing wrong with them at all but believe me some ppl that r emo do have problems other than cutting there wrists which i stereotyping, which is a form of attack on young generations style because and certain twat doesn't understand what an emo is or whatever have u. But enough of the chatter and bull this is my definition if u dn't like it then u know u must really be a chav or an ignorant tosser with nothing better to do with his/ or hers time.
Thickened makeup mostly different coloured hair, normally black, a massive side fringe, piercings depending on how hardcore u r and an extravagant choose in music as well s emo and other hardcore bands woot and at least there not a chav

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.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.
