EMO


Emu spelled incorrectly.

"That emo sure is fast!"

:lol:

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.

Theres some funny sh*t on that site.

Q. How many emo's does it take to change a lightbulb?

A. 3: one to change the lightbulb, one to write a depressing song about how they much they miss the old lightbulb and one to put up a "Myspace" page documenting the whole process.

In the early 90s there was a movement in the hardcore genre that came to be known as "Emotive Hardcore," spearheaded by Rites Of Spring. Harder-core-than-thou kids, who swore by Dischord Records a la Minor Threat, actually coined the term "Emo" as something of a put-down for the kids who really liked Rites Of Spring, Indian Summer and this new wave of "Emotive" Hardcore bands. That's right, "Emo" was once not something kids called themselves. The field exploded outwards from there - Level-Plane Records has always been the most famous Emo label. Acts like Yaphet Kotto, I Hate Myself, Saetia, Hot Cross, A Day In Black And White, Funeral Diner, I Would Set Myself On Fire For You, You And I, and hosts of others came in the next decade. Most emo bands have since broken up, but there's still the occasional hold-out (again, the majority of Level-Plane Records' roster has been a procession of emo acts). Like most DIY hardcore/punk of the time, a majority found its way onto vinyl and not much else. Some people consider bands like Fugazi, and later Sunny Day Real Estate, a progression of emo, but personally, I don't quite follow that philosophy.

Often, more recently, this gets intertwined with post-hardcore, and understandably so - that's nothing to make an issue of, since well sh*t, at least it's close.

Since the late 90s, though, bands have been emerging in the vein of Taking Back Sunday, Dashboard Confessional, and the thousands of their clones. As far as I can tell, some lazy journalist somewhere, writing an article about them, decided "Well, f**k, no one knows what emo is anyways, so I'll call these bands "emo" - sounds more appealing than bubblegum pop rock..." and the spiral continued downwards into the current amalgomation of bands MTV has told everyone is "emo."

Somehow, people decided that "emo" meant "emotional," which is obviously bullsh*t, 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.


Hope that helps.

Taking Back Sunday, Senses Fail, and My Chemical Romance falls under the "horrible pop rock" genre, not the emo genre.

Rites of Spring is emo.

Thank god for this definition.

Newman likes emo. I even like old AFI. Newman particularly likes emocore.

Newman hates Taking Back Sunday, My Chemical Romance, 30 seconds to Mars and Behind Crimson Eyes. Newman hate kids with skinny jeans.


Newman thinks its hillarious when he hears oldies refer to kids as 'an emo'.

 

[blacktip-reefy]

well that shocks me.
newman likes EMO!!!!!??

your not a punk at all!!!!

 

[newman]

Yeah. My GF is into it hardcore. But the realstuff, like Red Animal War, Appleseed Cast, Deep Elm, Hot Water Music, Rites of Spring, Get Up Kids.

When you hear it non stop, it grows on you. Ill even admit to liking a bit of Dashboard Confessional which is a f**king disgrace.

I do not like My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday, 30 Seconds to Mars etc etc, and you would never catch us dead with skinny jeans, a skinnier top and make up.

I see those Emo like kids walking around here with there black on and long pants and shirts and 35 degree heat and think they need a good kick in the head to knock some sense into them.

 

[Inferno]

Used to see them walking around Pacific fair up here on a thursday night.

I'm almost willing to let the skinny jeans go, but some of these wierdo guys wear makeup, and I sh*t you not I once say one wearing this leather/vinyl long skirt thing. Get out of your mums closet you punks.

These idiots walk around the shopping centre in large groups, blocking your way, giving you dirty looks and swearing under there breath. Have a word with them and they scatter.

Im also sick to death at these kids thinking they have it tough. They hate their parents, but then go and clean them out to buy their clothes/cd's/concert tickets.

While they bitch and moan about how hard life is while munching down some fast food and then going home where they have a roof over their head and a bed to sleep in.

 

[Frenzy.]

Not to be confused with Nemo, an orange and white striped clown fish from the movie "Finding Nemo"

Nemo?! Where are you?

You hate kids in shopping centres. CONGRATULATIONS GRANDPA. So does everyone else.

 

[White Poiner]

I have seen hot emo chicks tbh.

Leave the merkins alone.

 

[cheese]

Narthing wrong with tightish jeans imo

Alsong as they dont have lycra ....thats just ghey

Some of those emo weirdos actually buy girls jeans though. Guys wearing girls jeans and Minor Threat should never be mentioned in the same breathe

 

[sharkadelic]

Sadly I dont mind taking back sunday but I have enough cred in my collection to be allowed a vice. I do hate A simple plan, dashboard confessional and all the rest of that sh*t. Emos are usually whiney bitches who deserve to be slapped not be confused with goths who also deserve to be slapped for totally different reasons.
