What's on your mug?

An emo is someone with unstable/hightened emotions. Most people joke about emos saying that they have nothing to to be sad about, that they have perfect lives or that they cut but the truth is to be emo you don't have to cut. Lots of emos really do have crappy lives and lots of emos think that cutting is a waste of time as it creates more problems than it solves. Emos are also focus lots on music such as Black Veil Brides/Escape The Fate which are often classed as emo. Their meaningful lyrics and heavy music being too heavy for mainstream music such as Madonna or Usher. The lyrics to emo songs are often confessional e.g. the Escape the Fate song The Day I Left The Womb about Ronnie Radke the lead singers mother who abandoned his family. Emos also have a very specific style including skinny jeans for both males and females, band hoodies and band t-shirts which display the names of various 'emo' or 'screamo' bands such as BFMV, Buckcherry or BMTH. They often wear black sneakers and hate being seen minus their IPod. Emos are subject to abuse most of the time due to their differences although these are what makes us great. Emos often have facial piercings. They are often associated with tattoos as well, the more sterotypical emo tattoos are 'depressing' sayings, chest tattoos such as hearts with wings and star designs Despite this though emos are just average people with a different outlook on life than most people. They love, they laugh, they hurt.

Jock: Look at that emo girl and guy, are they going to cry and cut themselves together? Random Girl: Up the shut fuck! They're people too and they just have lots of emotions!

Fags who were makeup. Its so gay that the emo guys wear just as much make up as the girls. They are upper middle class white kids who's life are good and they get bored so they make up problems. Problems that everyone in the whole world endure.

Emo:"my girlfriend dumped me im gonna cut my wrists"*boo hoo* Normal person:"suck it up pussy"

First things first. Emo does NOT mean emotional. People who are emo are NOT always depressed. They can be happy and hyper too. They do NOT always cut themselves. These typical stereotypes are NOT true. Get it through your head, mkay? And the music that is labeled as emo, is not really emo at all. If everything that was sad was labeled emo, "Beautiful Girls" by Sean Kingston would fit into that catigory. Jeez, people. Secondly, emo boys(or girls, depending on if you're a boy or girl) are the sexiest people to ever grace this earth. Anyone else just won't measure up. Thirdly, emo boys/girls are NOT all gay. Just because a guy wears tight jeans or puts on eyeliner doesn't make him gay. Actors wear makeup all the time. And the pants look extremely hott on guys. And the dyed hair doesn't make them gay because people dye their hair all the time. So what it isn't super bright green or pink or red? Their just colors, get over it. Its called expression.

Girl one: Look at him! He's so amazingly hott. Girl two: I know! I loved his emo pants. Girl one: Lets go be emo.

Emo is a terrible chain reaction that infects people all around the world. It starts of with someone in a mid-high class suburban society that is bored, and gets little attention. They figure; "If I become different, people will notice me." So, they start exaggerating their emotions, mostly sadness, which seems to grip most people. Eventually, they will start showing all of the symptoms of an emo. In most cases, they will by a black book, in which they draw sad pictures and write sad poetry in. Then, they will comb their hair as straight as possible, in order to achieve minimum eye contact. And finally, they will start wearing black clothing (preferably with stripes or with band pins), pierce random spots on their face and (in severe cases) start cutting their wrists. Eventually, other people notice, and some join this crowd. Almost all the people that become emo, never change. No one knows what happens to them after college either. They somehow disapear in their own imaginary sadness. *sniff*

I am an emo, someone help me... I feel like I am in a pit of never ending sadness and no one cares. PLEASE! Someone notice me... *cries*

someone you thinks they have issues and blames their parents. they believe in dark things and wear very goth things and are like goths to the power of 100. //suicidal emos (usually the "Real emos" tend to cut themselves out of stress hoping to find a certain relief. // Some people refer to some emos as fags, as they wear, short jet black hair, tight jeans, tall and skinny, hair over either the right or left eye at either a straigh and or diagonal style, usually wear vans/chucks and wear eyeliner, have piercings on their body and wear band shirts. Almost like "Punks"
