im not sure if u've noticed but where i come from emo is being used more as an insult more than a label. people r always joking about being an emo and pretending to slit their wrists it is kinda pathetic.

also emos r seen as weak and cry-babies, and dont like to do anything. im emo and im stronger than most of the guys who arent and i dont cry and i skateboard so im only part emo.

also no offence to emos but i dont no about u but im pretty sick of people saying im sh*t at sports and everything. it annoys me, the only reason i dont do anything is cus of them. but i think emos shud do more things to show them tht they can.

last thing. emos dont reli have a bad point of few on life. but the only reason the world dont have time fot emos is cus it dont have time for anyone.

so heres a definition of emo - open minded being, who listens to killer music and isnt afraid to express their emotions. but dont always slit their wrists.

um ... dont no wot to put in here lol soz. um i am a emo/skater and anyone who is emo has an awesome music sense .... oh and dresses kewl.... well i got to go dye my hair.

Emo's are the cheap immitation of goth that wear Faggoty clothes listen to depressing music and draw attention to themselves by scratching at the surface of their wrists.

The sad thing is they give so many people a bad name.
ie. They stole and Faggotised the goth's fashion.

ie. They made people think that the people who actually suffer from depression and cut themselves because they want to die (Due to their mental condition) look like attention seeking emo's.

So basically Emo's are pathetic, cheap, immitating little shits and everyone hope's they will all fuck off and die, so for once they should stop talking about it and actually do it!

EMO: "I hate my life it is a black abyss and i'm going to kill myself"

ME: Sure - i can see how having both parents, money, your own computer and lots of friends is a 'depressing black abyss'. Well you know what get the fuck off your sad little web show, stop your shit whinning and actually kill yourself.... Go on i dare you!

emo 

1) An emotional person. They are not depressed all the time and some are acually very happy at times. They do smile, they don't sit in a corner crying all day. Some are actually quite popular and laugh and joke around lots.
NB: Emo does not mean the person cuts themselves, they might but that is not why they're emo.

2) A style. Quite similar from emo to emo but they try to make it quite unique. Some common features of emo's are:
-wristbands/bracelets
-long hair that covers their eyes
-jackets/hoodies
-skate shoes
-skinny fit jeans
-dyed hair
NB: Not all emo's wear this style and just because you see someone who has one or more of the above features doesn't mean they're emo.

3) A genre of music. Some people find it depressing, but generally emo's listen to it because it describes something that has happened/happening to them perfectly. It's like the band has taken their memories and found the perfect way to describe it.
NB: Just because a band isn't very popular doesn't mean it is emo and some emo music is very cheery and consoling.

1) I have lots of friends and we all joke and mess around but we are very emotional (emo's).

2) You see big groups of emo's in town wearing that style, but still managing to look cool and different.

3) Some people say My Chemical Romance is emo and depressing, but they have some cheeryish songs and their lyrics mean something to some emo's.

emo 

A terribly misconstrued and misused word. In contemporary culture it is utilized as a broad term to describe a multitude of children and teenagers who straighten their hair, have their hair in their face, perhaps dye it black, and wear tight clothing. Unfortunately this is completely inaccurate. Actual "emo" music existed in the late 80's and was a subgenre of hardcore punk rock, after all, "emo" is a shortening of "Emotional hardcore punk rock". The people in early emo bands dressed like regular people, everyday guys/girls who just played music that they enjoyed. Sadly, since the formulation and ongoing existence of Hot Topic, the term emo has been incorrectly characterized for a little more than a decade. You have to wonder how the original bands feel about the slandering and mass misunderstanding and misuse of their originality with those of the unoriginal.

Just search Cap'n Jazz to listen to actual emo music.
