I've noticed that alot more people are trying to be "emo". It kind of makes me mad. They are taking it from being a way of life to a fashion show. They are dressing the way we dress but when you go to talk to them and are like " oh i got tickets to see rise against in concert. they are so swank" they look at you with like 3 questions on their mind. What's swank. Who's rise against. Why are you talking to me? It just makes me mad. Emo is a way of life for some people. It's short for emotional. I am. Depressed and sad all day long. I don't choose to be. I just am.
I just wondered If This Makes anyone else mad or am I alone on this one?

Not only w/ emo with anything. Everyone turns anything into a fashion show.

emo is music. yes.
but people who listen to emo
have a reason to.
they are emotional.
mostly depressed.
i just think that people who
say i'm so emo it hurts should
be shot. it's just my opionion.
I know people proabbly feel
the same about me. I don't
really care. _unsure.gif

Do you listen to emo because you are depressed, or are you depressed because you listen to emo?

I listen because I am.
I never use to be but it seems like I hit highschool and it went to hell.
I've changed. I'm never happy. It sucks. I get happy when I see family
or like 2 of my 20 friends. mellow.gif

You poor thing.

I don't mean to sound snippy, but happiness is a choice. There are some people with some real issues of depression, but for most teenagers, you can choose between being mopey and whiny, or being happy with what you have.

That's the most annoying thing about the "emo trend"--people take it as encouragement to be sad (it's not, by the way). Instead of admitting that they just have crappy attitudes, they label themselves as "emo". Furthermore, it masks the fact that there are people out there who truly are depressed and really do need help.
