Ok, they're not called "emo's." If you really want to know, I'll tell you. About 15 years ago (maybe more,) punk kids were branching off. Some kids were into heavier punk, and some kids into softer poppier punk. They heavy kids started "hardcore punk" and the poppier kids started "emotional punk" or "emotional hardcore." That is where emo came from. Usually the people into this sort of thing refer to it as indie rock. They don't like being called anything. A lot of people labeled them "indie rockers." If you really want to piss the "emos" off, call them a "scenester." They HATE that. It's funny this all got so popular recently.
BTW, I'm not an "emo." I used to be WAY into hardcore bands when I was growing up.

If I see a black kid with baggy jeans, baggy hoodie, and wearing a baseball hat to the side/backwards, I'll think he's typical ghetto trash. Doesn't matter if he's into the Three-Six Mafia type of rap or the grittier/lyrical East Coast type of rap.
Same with emos. Soft hardcore, "Hard" hardcore. Whatever. You wear dark denim that are too tight and zippered hoodies or the dark denim jacket to mathc (that are too tight), with the duct-tape tipped Converses, I'll assume you're emo. Don't even have to sport the bandana around your thigh...

Why the change in terminology? This always sounds just like what my generation referred to as "goth kids" back in the day. I'm curious what the generation after this one will call the same category of kids....
what's with the quick categorizing, too? Someone could complain about Wendy's getting the order wrong, and all of a sudden everyone's like "OH MY GOD you're so Emo...emo faggy ***...". It's like you're all just waiting for the chance...any little opening, to throw around the e-word.
"I have cancer...damn this sucks..."
"haha..what an emo loser. So you got cancer...man up and deal with it!"
"..*sniff*...my...parents just died in a crash, AND I got AIDs."
"So? You're just another emo for complaining about it."
"Gaara was so damn emo...such a lame emo character there."(nevermind the fact that everyone hated him since birth, a demon was bound to his soul, and his own father even tried to kill him, etc. etc. Personally, I'd be just fine though, as at least the demon bound to his essence gave him the most awesome powers in the show. Seriously, I'd rule the world with that...)
This^ is what it has all come to now.

OFT but "scenester" sounds corny so it might backfire, just call 'em scene and the damage is done.

scenesters are just people who are really into a music scene. anyone who you can look at and tell 'oh that idiot is into (insert music style here)' is a scenester. also, 99% of the people who know what this term is and use it on a regular basis are scenesters themselves.

I think it's a stigma in our society where you're just not supposed to complain about anything out loud. Shit, ALL OF US have problems. Seriously, every single one of us. My question is, how does hearing about your problems make my problems any better/worse? I've always heard the term, "nobody likes a complainer." Funny thing is, that phrase is typically directed at me.
:wonder:
I guess that makes me emo.

apart from the hair, emo style is generally a hell of a lot better than grunge was, for guys and girls.
emo music is indistinguishable from any other music or decade and no one has yet been able to give it a sensibe definition to merit the continued use of the term.

you have to be kidding me. what is more manly...taking 2 showers a week and wearing flannel everyday or spending an hour every morning on your hair and wearing girls pants?
emo is just a blanket term for all modern mainstream rock. most rock nowadays is less edgy than the grunge of the 90's, and less synth heavy than the new wave of the 80's.

Okay, some dude called me emo today... And I told him. Uhh WTF... Do I look emo? Okay, the clothes I were wearing were, what House (M.D.) would wear, I'm wearing some dirty ghetto ass Nike's and my hair is hmmm almost like the girl in my avatar, I don't look emo, hell I was listening to Tupac when he said that to me. It's just like so fucking mainstream that people just slap emo on a person just because they look like it, and then "Emo" is just used as another term to put someone down, It's used ALOT at my school, and there's so many people who dress that way, the stuff they wear is like fucking.. Benimaru type clothes...
Oh, another quote that goes "Wake me up...WHEN SEPTEMBER ENDSSSSS"
p.s. I spend alot of time on my hair (nice conditioner, shampoo, no gel or any other stuff, hair's 100% natural), and I like having my crotch able to breathe.

i've been to such Jrock band concerts , i'm the only average joe surrounded with goth/punks/gothic lolitas/punk lolitas , and male emo crossingdress is appealing by the girls . AND YES ! they ......do mosh also . only less than 10:wonder: . never want to go there again . or i'll just wear some t-shirt with captions that will really pissed them off .
really thanks to visual kei , Jrock mainstream is fucking ruined and tattered :arazz: .
similar to rock/metal culture in the US .

From what I could find out he actually did kill himself over some girl.
Im sorry but I just watched that gameboy clip I laughed, I guess that makes me EVIL.
http://ytmndforgameboymyspacesuicide.ytmnd.com
I pity people that get blown up for no reason, people that get shot when there Innocent, children that get abused and so on.
Not when some guy gets his heartbroken, can you really expect to go through life without some women crushing you, Im sure most of us have all been there and got the T-shirt, and if you havent then you will.
suicide is still murder in my eyes, you took someones life, just that it was your own, I cant have Symphony for another human that kills people.
Life is the most Precious thing you have in the world, even if your at rock bottom, you want to throw that away over some girl?
Maybe this guy had other problems who really knows, everything about it is sad.
