Emo:Scam of the Century
Dear Diary
Mood: Apathetic :( ”My life is spiraling downward. I couldn’t get enough money to go to the Blood Red Romance and Suffocate Me Dry concert. It sucks cause they play some of my favorite songs like “Stab My Heart Because I Love You” and “Rip Apart My Soul” and of course “Stabby Rip Stab Stab” And it doesn’t help that I couldn’t get my hair to do that flippy thing either…like that guy from that band can do….some days you know...” I’m an emo kid, non-conforming as can be You’d be non-conforming too if you look just like me I have paint on my nails and makeup on my face I’m almost emo enough to start shaving my legs Cause I feel real deep when dressing in drag I call it freedom of expression, most just call me a fag Our dudes look like chicks and chicks look like dykes Cause emo is one step below transvestite Stop my breathing and slit my throat I must be emo I don’t jump around when I go to shows I must be emo I’m dark and sensitive with low self esteem The way I dress makes everyday feel like Halloween I have no real problems but I like to make believe I stole my sister’s mascara now I’m grounded for a week Sulking and writing poetry are my hobbies I can’t get through a Hawthorne Heights album without sobbing Girls keep breaking up with me, it’s never any fun They say they already have a pussy, they don’t need another one Stop my breathing and slit my throat I must be emo I don’t jump around when I go to shows I must be emo Dye in my hair and polish on my toes I must be emo I play guitar and write suicide notes I must be emo ”My life is just a black abyss... ya know...it’s so dark. And it’s suffocating me, grabbing a hold of me and tightening its grip, tighter than a pair of my little sisters jeans...which look great on me by the way.” When I get depressed I cut my wrist in every direction Hearing songs about getting dumped gives me an erection I write in a live journal and wear thick rimmed glasses I tell my friends I bleed black and cry during classes I’m just a bad, cheap imitation of goth You can read me “Catcher in the Rye” and watch me jack off I wear skin tight clothes while hating my life If I said that I like girls I’d only be half right I look like I’m dead and dress like a homo I must be emo Screw XBox I play old school Nintendo I must be emo I like to whine and hate my parentals I must be emo Me and my friends all look like clones I must be emo ”My parents don’t get me ya know. They think I’m gay just because they saw me kiss a guy…well, a couple guys …but still, I mean it’s the 2000’s, can’t two…or 4 dudes make out with each other without being gay. I mean, chicks dig that kinda thing anyways. I don’t know diary, sometimes I think you are the only one that gets me…you’re my best friend. I feel like tacos.” :( |
Soooo... You don't like emos? :D

Satire, when executed efficiently, is one of the finest arts.
A darn shame that you didn't: a) Give credit where credit is due (in this case http://www.myspace.com/adamandandrew b) Come up with someone original Tongue in cheek, though. Tongue in cheek. |

Ok, I read the piece above. I still don't get it. Can someone tell me in three sentences or less what emo is/means? I'm guessing it's short for "emotional". I'm really out of the loop I know... Just one concise answer and then, by all means go back to your emo bashing.

For 65322; "Emo" is a slang term that has become the recent focus of frequently tiresome debates. Here is a loose definition of what it means from Urban Dictionary: What is Emo? |
Thanks E_P_S. NOW I understand. :)
I like this definition the best: 5. EMO link send redefine 3847 up, 2147 down Emu spelled incorrectly. "That emo sure is fast!" by martyv Feb 25, 2005 :D |

Some great definitions of "Emo",thanks to 'Urbandictionary.com':
"Emo" is: -"A group of white, mostly middle-class well-off kids who find imperfections in there life and create a ridiculous, depressing melodrama around each one. They often take anti-depressants, even though the majority don't need them. They need to wake up and deal with life like everyone else instead of wallowing in their imaginary quagmire of torment." -"Emo" is not short for "Emotional." "Emo" does not mean Taking Back Sunday and Dashboard Confessional, despite what MTV has lead you to believe in the last few years. "Emo" is not sidebangs, tight pants, and male vocalists who sing like little girls about their failed relationships. "Emo" is not the use of diluted, meaningless metaphors and similes such as "My arms are like pinecones," and most definitely is not the rampant use of words such as "autumn," "heart," "knife," "bleeding," "leaves," and "razorblade." I just thought I'd clear that up after all of these "definitions" in which I have encountered an unbelievable amount of people who try to pass off their blatantly false pretenses as fact, and are slowly infecting others with their high-horse, holier-than-thou bullshit. Because honestly, with your ridiculous definitions, Beethoven, George Gershwin, and Britney Spears are/was "emo bands." -"Somehow, people decided that "emo" meant "emotional," which is obviously bullshit, as 99% of bands make music to illicit emotion, which would make "emotional" a completely all-encompassing genre from classical to opera to pop to rap." -"It is an overly-hyped money making process, and has flooded the mainstream radio/tv stations. Trend following kids everywhere have adopted the "emo lifestyle" because it is the newest fad." -1.Emo Jim:"It's so hard living in the middle-class suburb" Emo Luke:"Yeah, the whole world is against us, let's listen to Linkin Park while watching Invader Zim." 2.Emo Kid:"I hate my life, I wish I was never born" Normal Guy:"You said that last week, obviously you're not serious." 3.Emo Kid:"These new black bracelets I bought for 30 dollars, and this My Chemical Romance CD, sure express myself while rebelling against "the system"" Normal Guy:"Who do you think owns the company that manufactured the things you bought?" -"An entire subculture of people (usually angsty teens) with a fake personality. The concept of Emo is actually a vicious cycle that never ends, to the utter failing of humanity, and it goes something like this: 1. Girls say they like "sensitive guys" (lie) 2. Guy finds out, so he listens to faggy emo music and dresses like a dork so chicks will see that he is sensitive and not afraid to express himself (lie). He dyes his hair black, wraps himself in a stupid looking scarf, develops an eating disorder, and rants about how "nobody understands". 3. Now an emo guy, he meets Emo chick and they start dating, talking about how their well-off suburban lifestyles are terrible and depressing (lie) 4. Emo guy is just too much of a pussy. His penis is too small, he's too depressed to bathe, and has more mood swings than emo chick, and he doesn't even have a menstrual cycle. Emo chick dumps him, saying "It's not you, it's me." (lie) as she drives off with Wayne, the school jock and captain of the football team. 5. Emo guy goes home and cries, proceeds to write a weak song and strum a single string on his acoustic guitar. Another emo chick sees how he is so in touch with his feelings, and the cycle continues. This is the sad truth of the emo lifestyle/music, and now that I look at how pathetic it really is, maybe the emos DO have something to cry about!" |

"girlfriend: C'mon, lets have sex. boyfriend: I'm too sad to have sex. girlfriend: I'm sad too; lets have sex and cry. boyfriend: I'm already crying." ;) |
I like this one: I stole my sister’s mascara now I’m grounded for a week! Hehe I love those guys, their songs crack me up every time!
|
I like " Girls keep breaking up with me. They say they already have a pussy; they don't need another one"

One of my best friends from highschool now thinks he's emo, its horrible to see.
He doesn't even dress it, he thinks wearing darker colours is good enough. And he doesn't listen to emo music, just Lifehouse, Matchbox 20, U2....to him, if its a sad song, its emo. And he thinks his life is horrible just because last October he got dumped. He's STILL crying over it. I don't want to be friends with him anymore. |
Bring him over here. Let's see if he still thinks he's emo and wants to be one:D
|
I think he'd be scarred for life. Do Emo boys really dress in girl pants? The more I learn about Emo, the more I realize what a lame posuer this guy is. He won't even wear nail polish.
I need new friends. |
Watch your language!
