What's on your mug?

Someone who dresses a certain way (you know the emo look) to maintain a stereotype. People SHOULD be able to wear skinny legs and loads of eyeliner etc. without it being emo or posery, but now they cant because no one cant tell the difference between people who like tight jeans etc. and someone who wears them soley for a look. My advice, sacrifice wearing tight jeans etc., they dont look good anyway. If possible try to create your own look, or not even a look, just be a person with clothes on, FUCK what people think. "Fuck what people think? Your saying to not wear certain things so people wont have an opinion. Thats what YOU think. Are you not a person?" I hear you say? Well if you dont care what people think you wont TRY to wear emo things and believe your unique. Having THAT hairstyle and being 'emotional' doesnt make you unique people. If you are trying to do that you are only getting sucked into this whirlpool of bullshit

emo wannabe poser shithead: I have a face-covering fringe and colourful hair, it isnt black, i broke ONE emo barrier. I'm unique now. Educated Being: No you arent. Youre wearing colours; WOOPDIDOO! You are TRYING to be unique. Thats a problem you SIMPLE MINDED FOOL. Stop thinking so deeply into people opinions of you.

Pretty much a watered-down version of Goth. They wallow in self-pity, and overreact over everything. They tend to wear tight-fitted pants, scarves, eyeliner(yes, even if they're guys)and they flip their hair to cover up half of they're face. The guys look like girls, and the girls look like guys.

Girl #1: Wow, look at Jessica. She looks so sad. Girl #2: Yeah I know, I think she's emo.

A genre of music meaning "Emotional" that has recently turned into a style. The style consists of darker colors, band tees, razored, straight hairstyles, heavy eyeliner, converse/vans/osiris' and ripped jeans. A teenager labeled "emo" is not the same as one labeled "scene." Scene is a brightly colored- teased hair- 80's sort of style. Cutting is a common misconception of the emo style. Cutting comes along with depression, not a style. There are those who cut for attention or think they have to in order to be emo (which is not true.) It is considered offensive to those who cut for medical reasons when it's made fun of relating to emo kids. The music listened to by a typical emo kid is usually metal-/death-/crabcore, "screamo," post-hardcore and punk rock. It's not uncommon to find cute bands and singers like Stephen Jerzak or Owl City scattered between the metal bands on their iPods, and maybe even some Kid Cudi or Lil Wayne.

*First guy* Haha! Look at those Emo fags. Their probably cutting themselves under that BMTH hoodie. *Second, smarter guy* Dude, no. Shut up. You've got no idea what you're talking about.

Emos are people that shop at hot topic, cut their selfs an talk about suicide because they don't have shit in life to be depressed enough to, or have big enough balls to really kill their selfs. OR, Goths that find life easier to buy clothes with chains an straps already attached while still claiming to be a goth, they are just a subclass added to the hot topic scene. OR, Punks, pretty much like hot topic goths

We should fucking burn down all the Hot Topics to stop the EMO CANCER. That would be very emo.

Emo meaning emotional is a new craze across the young 'uns! emos can be spotted by a greasy fringe, skinny jeans, hoodies and a general grunting distain for those around them. Emo gangs try to act depressed and generally buy a copy of marilyn mansuns greatest hits. They pretend to know everything about punk and rock (even though most of them weren't born when kurt cobain died)they wear t-shirts saying 'kurt cobain died for us' which in short is a pretencious pile of wank that's spread across our society! Don't get me wrong I appreciate that everybody has problems, and i am by no means a chav... (they're all scum and should be shot!)... but come on people. We are british, we do not parade around showing our emotions and slitting our wrists and acting depressed. We as a nation are supposed to have the stiff upper lip and generally repressed attitude to our feelings!

It needs no example just look at a group of depressive teens and you'll see the emo crowd.
