What's on your mug?

A style of dress and music adapted generally by white teenagers of the U.S and U.K. Used by many people(many of the definitions on this topic being evidence of this)as something to hate and bitch about with little justification. The dress style includes drain pipe trousers, black hair with a long fringe swept to the side, sripes, the colour black, also the colour white but only when combined with black. Many talented band are hated because of there emoness examples including My Chemical Romance, Hawthorne Heights, Fall Out Boy etc. Emo stereotypes include heavy depression, self harm and self obsession. In the majority of cases these accusations are false

Come on people, give em a chance. Dont hate what you dont love, emo

Emo. Who knows what it really is, like honestly? Some say its a genre of music, "fags" who sing about there failure relationships, and mostly, people who wear tight pants, strum a guitar to a suicidal song and cry all day. But who is to say that any of these definitions are wrong? We all have different opions; and noone can say one's opion is "stronger" than another opion(in this case)fore, I cannot find a legible source and or person who made the word up. Moreover, if you do find a source, there is still no real evidence to where it really came from(If this was so, Im sure it would be listed in dictionary.com).

Some of the different things that people label as "emo" are(Note, some labeled/accurate definitions may not be included, and im just giving the general examples): 1. Emotional people 2. Bands such as silverstein 3. Outcats of society 4. People who wear certain clothes/and or styles to prove a point to society 5. People who dont take care of them selves, and where rugged clothing 6.Sensitive people 7. Other

a lame attention seeking kid who wears a lot of dark colors, skinny jeans, belts with special metal studs on them, and hair that covers half their face as though doing that will prove they disapprove of mainstream society. then they go home and ask their parents for money and eventually will get over how lame they are grow up to become yuppies.

what is that emo kid trying to prove.
