I rather liked this line. It is descriptive in a gothic sense, unlike the rest.
I would suggest that you expand your writing in this area and discard the rest.

Speaking of flippy hair... whilst browsing the used CDs yesterday I saw this guy with a very thick, shoulder-length piece of hair hanging in his face, and the rest was rather short. When he bent over to look at the CDs, the large piece of long (one-sided bangs?) hair was dangling. It was humorous. He had on the tight girl pants & tight shirt. Perhaps he wasn't Emo, but he sure was dressed the part.

Aww how cute. Too bad my man is all football, beer, jeans, and t-shirts (with the occasional band t-shirt).

Just don't mix up what is Goth with what is Emo, as Kontan said.
I doesn't matter much to me what I'm mistaken for... but if they mistake me for not being weird enough, that's what bothers me more than anything.

Do you know what really brightens up my day?!
Seeing a fat, unattractive emo.
Especially one who makes the emo fashion look even more embarrassing.

I am playing nice I am just saying That I feel somewhat superior when I see them.
I have no problem with emos in fact my girlfriend is emo and there is nothing cuter than two emo boys kissing.

By the way, am I pronouncing emos Correctly?

Nah.
my lack of leather and metal when not wearing my trench coat may make me resemble an emo, but I don't have the right fringe nor shoes.

I have nothing against emos myself, but some people do. As long as he writes with good grammar and spelling, posts an introduction, and is open-minded and willing to learn about the subculture, he will be welcome.

I agree; I'd have a hard time disliking any open-minded person with proper spelling and grammar.

I find it interesting to think however that before the emo (scene kid) trend started, if a guy like the one Linen described walked down the street in full emo attire he would have been shunned by all of his peers, probably; however, in today's world he is praised. Of course trends aren't anything new, but it still seems amazing to me, what some people will do.

Good goth I must say, there are TWO things getting old here: Emo-Bashing and the subject being brought up here. We have what? 8 threads about Emos and Scene Kids? Not even counting the parody videos made of them. Let's just let a little Emo kid safely walk along the Seattle rodes, hopeing to raise money for the Fugazi complitation album as he deals with angst and personal issues; and an ignorant little scene kid worshipping the Used and MCR as he pretends to self-mutilate himself with School Supplies. Can we not? Plus, Ravers are much more interesting to poke fun at.
