What's on your mug?

People who usually think, "I suck. Life sucks. Time to cut my wrist," or something to that matter. They are usually cast away by society, and people look down upon them.

Cho Seung Hil, the Virgina Tech shooter was an emo

an emotional punk! plain and simple not those 5 paragraph long things. its a punk that like rock music a lil more on the pop music side. emos usually cut there wrists, wear hair in front or their face, and wear tight clothes. <b> A TRUE EMO DOES <u>NOT</u> CALL THEMESELVES EMO!!!</b> ppl who call themselves emo are POSERS!!!!! not true emo. emo isnt a style that u gotta change urself to fit into its who ur TRUE personality that makes u emo, not how much money u spend at HOTTOPIC!!

goth: shut up u emo!!!! emo: im not fucking emo!!!

a bunch of kids that are depressed because they want to conform to a non-conformist(just basically a lot of snotnosed attention seekers) subculture that is full of shitty music that trys to make a statement by singing about how they were all dumped because their emo(you know who you are) and think that their souls are tortured because they can afford a large amount of scarfs and plenty of wide rimmed spectacles who in many respects share a sort of likeness to the 1960s hippie culture only they tried to do something instead of wallow in self pity

emo:i want to cut myself because i want to make non-conformist statement by conforming to a group of complete and utter losers me:you should be cutting yourself because of the shit you listen to emo:crys and relalises his life is shit because of his decision to become emo me:now you've got it emo:kills self me:hoorah one down, many to go

There is no pure definition for emo kid. Hard to believe? Well, take this from someone who has a heart and a mind. Leave people who may fit this description the fuck alone. Not all people who "dress" or "look" like an emo is one. If we choose to look the way we do, that's just fine. Growing our hair out or wearing tight clothes, studs, stripes, scarves, what-the-fuck-ever doesn't mean we are trying to set a trend or be part of a group (UNLESS YOU ARE A POSER-WHICH CAN BE PICKED OUT VERY EASILY.) Our appearance is part of how we define ourselves and it's just based off of what we like. We all encounter a source of pain in our lives, regardless of how terrible or abusive it may be, but that doesn't mean that the people who are hurting look emo or act emo. Depression is not a joke and anyone is suseptible to it, even a bitchy little prep. All people have problems and make their own choices on how to deal with them.

I wear black, my hair is long and in my face, I can't leave the house without darkly lined eyes, my pants are deathly tight. How can you bill me for an emo kid when people in the 80's did the same thing? Does that make them emo as well?

Attention seeker. Emo boys have sad, miserable sex with eachother and emo chicks.

Emo girl/guy: "Oh Jimmy, my life sucks, you're all I have, lets fuck and cry about our misery together, and write a poem after..." Emo guy: "*in his head* Sweet. This is why I became emo."
