Emo
Emo = Emotional Hardcore Contrary to popular belief, Emo is not about being depressed or cutting, it's not short for emotional, it has nothing to do with teenage posers who follow the trend of pretending to be bisexual, depressed, and wearing all black. It's not a fashion. The fashion that's commonly referred to as "emo fashion", is actually called "scene". And MCR and Fallout Boy are NOT emo. In actuality, It's a branch off of hardcore punk that started in the mid 80s with the punk band, Rites of Spring. They hated the glorified violence and restrained music that infected the D.C. hardcore scene, and took hardcore to a greater level of experimentation with more emotional lyrics and more melodic instruments. Soon after, a surge of new bands started forming and creating their own adaption of the style that Rites of Spring innovated. The summer of 1985 became known as "revolution summer". Good emo bands from "revolution summer" include: Rites of Spring, Embrace, Moss Icon, Dag Nasty, Gray Matter, Nation of Ulysses, and Fire Party. After the disbanding of Rites of Spring, Ian MacKaye (from Embrace) and Guy Picciotto (from Rites of Spring) formed the post-hardcore band Fugazi in the early 90s. who influenced bands such as Sunny Day Real Estate, Far, Braid, and Jimmy Eat World. In my opinion, Sunny Day Real Estate are to mall emo, (the music that's commonly referred to as emo today) as Rites of Spring are to emo. They started the whole movement of mainstream "emo" bands. Happening at the same time, was the the unground movement of screamo. Screamo sounded similar to emo, but louder and with a lot more screaming and slightly different song structures. Screamo started with bands such as Antioch Arrow, Palatka, Portraits of the Past, and The Swing Kids. The music comprised of brutal yet somewhat melodic guitars, loud, fast drums, song structures that switch from quiet to loud, and obviously, screaming vocals. One thing that's not true is when people say real emo is a dead genre. because, while mainstream "emo" has taken over MTV and the radio, an underground emo/screamo scene still exists. Circle Takes the Square, Raein, Daitro, Haram, 1905, and ...Who Calls So Loud, City of Caterpillar are all examples of emo (and screamo) bands from the last eight years, most of them are still existing. It's not a dead genre, you just have to look for the real deal.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
I love the item I ordered but found the website a little difficult to navigate.
Now this has been my favourite mug by far. I put the word of scrunkly on it just as i had envisioned. Now to know why i picked a scrunkly mug, we need to go back all the way to the year of 2016. It was a day like no other, the birds were tweeting. We were all laughing while playing in the playground. Then came that fateful moment. A cackle was heard screeching throughout the lands. I turned my head in complete and utter fear. Two seagulls stood there. One was cackling while a red liquid dropped from its mouth. The head of the seagull next to it was missing. The seagull had consumed its friend's head! A betrayal, no... a parley even! To this day I still hear the words which left that evil beast's beak. It said, "Awww, the scrunkly". It then flew off into the sunset, leaving nothing but chaos and carnage behind. Anyways 10/10 for the mug. Would buy again.
Came in like ordered, solid mug
The mug arrived as shown and expected. But, it is an average mug and the cost is quite high. It's funny and good as a one time gift. If we needed several, the cost would be prohibited. Again, funny product and as expected.
Love it. I can't wait to give it as a gift yo
This is lafayetti yummi yum yum Oui oui mon ami je m'appelle lafayette The lancelot of the revolutionary set I came from afar just to say "Bonsoir" Tell the king "Casse toi" Who's the best C'est moi

Henceforth, I am unable to leave a negative review for this amazing cup.
Good quality, just as pictured. Very pleased with it!
Having my first cup of coffee in the new cup. Good idea to add new terms through individual contributions.
10/10 Looks exactly like the preview. Shipping was fast.
This is for my granddaughter whom I used to call cutie patootie until she found out another meaning for patootie. Then she didn’t like the name so much! This will be a perfect gift for her! She is 16.
Love the cups :) It reminds us of our sweet momma. I thought everyone knew the word "mommicked" but evidently it is an Eastern North Carolina thing...My sisters and I all married Northerner/ Yankees and they had never heard of the word. Thank you for a tender memory.
Cup came in one piece and looks as nice as it does in the picture! Only note is just be mindful of any typos in the description of the definition, they will show up on the cup too! Other than that, no complaints!
This reminds me of the amazing teams i worked in!
great experience, with fast delivery. Thank you!
my grandma loved it!
