What's on your mug?

A style of music relating to mostly underground bands, or music not popular to the self proclaimed 'in crowd'. Common listeners follow trends set by the lead singers of these bands, including skinny jeans, horn-rimmed glasses and band t-shirts. Incredibly false accusations of the term 'emo' include the opinions that people who listen to this style of music have mental disorders such as depression or bipolar depression, and that most all of them SI, or self injure, meaning they cut themselves. Bands who produce 'emo' music include Fall Out Boy, Flyleaf, Suicide Silence, Bring Me The Horizon and several other bands listed under the categories of 'screamo' or 'punk'. People often think the teens who listen to this music mimick the lyrics to the songs, which created the steryotyp that anyone wearing skinny jeans, horn rimmed glasses, black skin tight tops or have the 'emo hairstyle' (layered and teased, mulitcolored) go along are instantly emo.

"Like my skinnies?" "Wow, you're emo."

total awsome people. emo dosent mean they cut, cry, or hate themselves,. those are total dramatic kids who want attention. other than that, real emo's are kind. and some are rude(only to defend eachother).....theres no actual meaning to emo too many ppl use the term emo to judge and it seems unfair. but emo is not bad its just unique and awsome to music culture

Emo guy: why is everyone so judgemental damn so what if i emo. Jock:i dont know man but your pretty cool for an emo Emo Guy: thanks bra'

A young adult/teenager who cuts their wrists, arms, legs, etc. The true emos are the one's that actually do the cutting because they have a lot of things in their life that seem to go wrong, and they are not always just the people who wear skinny jeans, scarfs, black side swept hair.

Word to the wise: If you want to help your emotional friend stop cutting, Don't: Threaten to tell someone, Tell them to stop cutting, Say that it makes them ugly. Do: Be there for them, Hang around with them a lot and let them know you are there for them, Say how much you care for them, & Rather than saying to stop cutting do something about it.

Emo is a music style. Some describe it as teenagers who are always depressed and cut themselves. To call someone emo would be saying that they are music. To say, "Hey you emo kid" would be improper. The correct way to use emo in a sentence would be, "I'm into this emo music" Emo is none other than a style of music. To say otherwise would be rude. Using emo as an insult is stereotypical.

Nevershoutnever is one of the nations biggest emo sensations.

a small flightless bird from the darkest corners of hot topic. Standing at just below 3 feet, the cry of the emo sounds suspiciously similar to My chemical romance songs. local orithologists believe the reason they are flightless dates back to ancient fossils of emos found with scarred wings, suggesting that they used their claws, which resemble, and still do, razorblades to cut at their wings...even the bones believed to have been the legs were found to be equally as scarred. rare is it to see an emo out during the day. several teenagers around the world have adapted the depressing plumage into their everyday clothing, as if making the emo their mascot

wow, look at that emo, that depressing plumage is .......depressing?
