Emo to me is someone who wears Weezer style glasses and dresses like they are so cool. Their pictures they have on the internet are where they pose and tilt there head slighty and don't directly look at the camera and make either an intense or serious or slightly sad look and to top it off they use band quotes under it and/or make it black and white. Something like that....

i am very emo. emo - emotional, easily "touched", somewhat moody, [I]see loving

is that a dictionary reference? cause thats not all that accurate. its referring to the shortened version of emotional, but not the music style all that much.

what everyone's been saying. with the exception of a few.

I listen to 'emo' and i'm an 'emo' person... but i also listen to metal and hard rock and some techno/trance... but i don't wear scarfs or black rimmed glasses or anything like that...

emo=emotional. it's not that hard to understand and nearly everyone here has said it.


ditto. i listen to emo and also metal, hard rock & techno. i guess im "emotional" with the things going on in my life right now but i dont wear only black stuff either. so yeah.

emo- a misspelling of emu, as in "that emo sure runs fast"


actually, emo stands for emotive rock.

and no, it doesn't stand for emotional music, or emotional rock. all music is emotional.

"Emo" is just short for Emotion
So really you cant say "Im emo" cause thats like saying "Im emotion"
BUT the media has twisted the word into something its not, and so now the definition isnt "emotion" its "depressed" or something along those lines.

I apologize for affending anyone who claims to be emo but I laugh at all of em. No, I don't mock their sense of style or their choice of music, I mock their actions and their 'non-conformist' attitude toward life.

"I'm a non-conformist"
"Wouldn't you be conforming by becoming a non-conformist?"
"You conformist nazi bastard."
"I'm black douchebag, I'm not a nazi. That would be an obvious contradiction to Nazi-Aryan beliefs and you're speaking againt being a part of a group by placing yourself in another. Is emo synonomous with mentally inept?"
"You're an a-hole."
"I'm right, Mr 'Non Conformist'"
"Don't give me a hard time because you're not emo and don't udnerstand."
"I udnerstand well, actually. I understand that you're a whiney little P**sy from suburban white america with many problems created for yourelf so you can go on cutting and pillpopping bignes so you can end your 'oh-so-horrible' life."

emo is short for EMOtional. and that exactly descibes the type of music, its emotional. its when the writer writes down when he or she really feels. i personally like emo music, but, i wouldn't call myself emo though.

dashboard always comes to mind.

i have my emo times. it gets me depressed.

my definition of emo? listen to dashboard.

edit-

also pictures of guys&girls with side bangs. they seem to be holding the camera up high, so your looking down at them. clothes are, black pants, white belt, band tee, w/ unprescripted-rectangular-black-rimmed glasses. _smile.gif

have fun with that.

Emo is a style that people
seem to carry on with and claim
they are EMOotional. By just
being overly skinny and having
hair eat your face and crying all
the time and bands that go on about
their sad depressing lives and all that crap
is what Emo has become to
be known as. Its kinna like if you ask
whats GOTH? its just people in dark clothing
claiming they are goth.
