I've notice that there are a TON of kids walking around dressing "emo". In my school alone there are dozens of people going around saying that they're "totally emo" and that they hate when people try to steal their style. This just pissed me off and so I want to tell all those little fakes why they aren't really emo. If you fit into any of these categories sorry, you're just a poser.
1. You are not "emo" if you listen to faggy little bands like Fall Out Boy or people like Avril Lavigne.
2. You are not "emo" if you constanly brag about how emo you are
3. You are not "emo" if you don't know what emo means (btw. it does NOT mean emotional)
4. You are not emo if you shop at Hot Topic.

5. You are not "emo" if you like Disney stars. In fact you're not normal if you like Disney stars and you're not a nine year old girl.

6. You're not "emo" if you hate your life because your boyfriend/girlfriend broke up with you or your mom took your cell phone or something. It's not that bad you'll get over it.

7. You are not "emo" if you cut yourself. You just have issues.
8. You are not automatically "emo" if you have black hair with layers.
9. You are not "emo" if you are a guy who likes to wear eyeliner. Seriously, it makes you look like a drag queen.
10. You are an emo poser if your screen name consists of more than one X.

a person who thinks that he or she is a pimp, but they really aren't. an emo poser will think that he or she has a large calf muscle, that and he or she will play alot of soccer. he or she will also listen to wannabe rock alot and try to show of to friends

A bunch of retarded fags who pretend they're emo, search/google for emo bands on the net and download their songs and study their lyrics like mad and tell other people that the lyrics somehow "relate" to them, made up stupid sad sappy stories about their so-called love life (which actually doesn't even exist as they've never even had a bf/gf), they tend to over exaggerate their problems, cut their wrist JUST CAUSE every other emo kid does that, tell everybody; "Oh my god, I think I'm emo, I hate my life, everyone sucks, life is so sad, love sucks! *cuts wrist*"
<Jake>: Emo posers suck donkey's ass!
<Lucas>: Hell yeah they do!

An emo poser is a fag who is trying to fit in with the 'emo style/label' thinking it is cool or whatever.
1. Purposely cut them selves over nothing or a small imaginary break up.
2. Download loud screamo music (even though they don’t know what they’re saying), google up the lyrics and relate it to their imaginary problem.
3. Attention seeker – shows everyone that they cut themselves.
4. Usually at the back of a gig looking depressed.
5. Cut themselves to look cool and to fit in because they have no other reason to
6. Hide away from everyone and make people worried when there is really nothing wrong
7. Have a stupid side fringe to purposely cover up their eyes of face
8. Hate the music they are listening to fit in with ‘the crowd’

Hence: These people usually have no life and sit around and sulk for no reason. They make up shit on the spot to get ATTENTION (Attention seeker), post luvo pictures of themselves at a weird angle with their hair in their face, uses a shit load of eyeliner to make them looked deprived of sleep, listen to screamo and have no idea what they’re saying but literally hate the stuff, pretending to cut themselves showing a ‘real knife’ with fake dye on it. Not to mention they draw in black pen and make little drawings of things that relate to death and stick them up places.

Stay AWAY from these people!
Emo Poser: Ugh i so hate my life and my girlfriend just dumped me for nothing.
Kid: MMkk...
Emo Poser: OMG i'm so depressed look what i did on the weekend - i actually cut myself, i'm going to commit suicide
Kid: Arn't those red lines that you used in english with a ruler?
Emo Poser: NO! I swear they're real
Kid: I'll just get a knife for you then
Emo Poser: *Run Away*

actually spelt emo posuer
someone who trys to fit into the emo stereotype because its the new thing
they think their life sucks and cut their wrists for attention
listen to music such as taking back sunday, fallout boy, hawthorne heights and of course panic!at the disco and simple plan which they think are emo
generally girls ages 11-14 who have a myspace and write blogs about what happened the other day when someone called them names and pretend their life is horrible
they are a disgrace to emo and have no idea what real emo is
emo posers need to stop cutting their wrists and get a life thats not what emo is about

Ok to start off emo posers are really annoying they claim they are emo but when situations change so does there persona.
1. They have the "image" of an emo (the hair, tight pants, keys clipped onto their belt loop, "a must have emo band shirt to signify there emoness")
2. The are not really emotional its an act to get some dipshit girl to like them. i.e. they cant write poems or play guitar (when they try they turn the distortion up to 10 and cant even finish a fucking guitar riff) sometimes they will even try to sing! *person shoots themselves with gun*
3. The biggest thing is there "adaptabiltiy" heres a perfect example... i was at this rap/emo band concert a couple weeks back. the first act was this horrendous rap group sure enough all the wannabe emos are trying to dance really fast like a black guy "you know all the usher shit" and trying to show off for their girls i was about to slap one of them because the fakeness was getting to me...., but heres the clincher when the emo band comes on there all back to crying NOT there moshing? yeah since when do emos mosh whatever happened to sit and cry in the corner because i ran out of tampons? hmm im not sure

4 actually heres the best part once the shows over there all quiet and sad and regular emo whats that all about?
ugh the mysterious mind of a person wanting to fit in...
POSERS! stay away from these people
Emo Poser: Rock On Dude!
Emo: I thought you were emo
Emo Poser: oh yeah sorry *sob* my gf left me because i whined to much
Emo: No i think she realized that your totally fake
Emo Poser: This Is Real! Look at my tears!
Emo: Why are you putting eyedrops in?
Emo Poser: SHUTUP!
