emo

Quite possibly the most ridiculous concept ever concocted (emo shouldn't even be classified as a music genre, as "emo" doesn't actually exist). Definition: A genre of music that was constructed under the pretense that "Pop Punk" (Pop punk being a complete paradox) was not faggy enough. Suburban teenagers who wanted to be "different" by crying and looking exactly like everyone they cry and hang out with (i.e. dyed black hair, jeans so tight that your tiny balls actually retract into the cavern from whence they dropped, the ever present "non conformist" Converse all star, piercings, scarves and anything purchased at a "Hot Topic" store), needed something else to cry about instead of their upper middle class "depression".
