Ok what do you guys think a emo is?

I alwayz see it as someone who is really sensitive, gets depressed easily. likes to express themselves you know with music and poetry. They tend to feel like the world is against them because of what they do and such. They tend to dress very casually, sometimes none caring.
that is what I think anywayz
Whiners?
mmmm, hope more people reply:P
its a type of goth.
a cheap imitation of goth
pussy goths basically
real goths ftw!
I'm not too sure what Emo means myself so we ask the "I know everything webpage"
Emo or emocore is a subgenre of punk rock music. Use of the term (and which musicians should be so classified) has been the subject of much debate.
In its original incarnation, the term "emo" was used to describe the music of the mid-1980s DC scene and its associated bands. In later years, the term "emo-core", short for "emotional hardcore", was also used to describe the DC scene. The term "emo" was derived from the fact that, on occasion, members of a band would become spontaneously and literally emotional during performances. The most recognizable names of the period included Rites of Spring, Embrace, One Last Wish, Beefeater, Grey Matter, Fire Party and slightly later, Moss Icon. The first wave of emo began to fade after the breakups of most of the involved bands in the early 1990s.
Starting in the mid-1990s, the term "emo" began to reflect the indie scene that followed the influences of Fugazi, which itself was an offshoot of the first wave of emo. Bands including Sunny Day Real Estate and Texas Is the Reason put forth a more indie rock brand of emo, which was more melodic and less chaotic in nature than its predecessor. The so-called "indie emo" scene survived until the end of the 1990s, as many of the bands either disbanded or shifted their style to the mainstream.
As the remaining indie emo bands entered the mainstream, newer bands began to emulate the more mainstream style, creating a style of music that has now earned the moniker "emo" within popular culture. Whereas, even in the past, the term "emo" was used to identify a wide variety of bands, the breadth of bands listed under today's emo is even more vast, leaving the term "emo" as more of a loose identifier than as a specific genre of music.

lol most emos hate themselves anyways. All the emos ive known are the kids who arent "Metal" enough to enjoy hard rock, but arent deviant enough to enjoy goth / screamcore. So they sit in the middle crying about how "No body understands me!!!!" and "I should shoot myself coz i missed the bus".
"How many emo kids does it take to change a lightbulb? Non, let them cry in the dark"
This guys got it in one!Quote:

bye
gays that think it's kool to slit there wrists cause they have a perfect life.. and you know what really pisses we off about them is that they never die!! oh shit my wrist is bleeding better put a towel on it.. it stopped!!! let's do it again
Emos basically wear VERY tight clothes, all the emo girls say there bi when there not, all emo lads kiss eachother and take pics but are all straight. They cry about there pathetic little life when the slightest thing goes wrong and threaten suicide as if people care. They often cut themselves and write poetry about guns to heads, bleeding, hearts, bleeding hearts and dying. They have badly died jet black hair which covers one eye, and several facial piercings
All in all there pathetic

Emos don't care about this, all they care about is their own little world and that the whole world is against them.
Trees have feelings, man. Peace:v:

cut the rope.
emo's are funny, they sit there crying about the smallest thing. "omg no more toilet roll im gonna cry and slit my wrists". there lazy pieces of crap that are either too stupid or lazy to do summit with their life.
the dress all goth but look even more gay than them :P
listen to soft goth/rock that makes u want to cry even more.
to sum up there life aint all as bad as they make it out to be. but they enjoy being sad little fks.
they can all die for all i care the world would be a better place without them imo :)
Having the exact same discussion on my forum
My opinion is:
Emo isn't an actual real word. Another intterperation for emo is emotional. All songs change your emotions. Maybe a spanish song makes you feel glad, or a metal song may make you feel energetic. It depends on how you respond. So in a sense the word "emo" is an understatement for the way we use it today.
I could say Jazz is emo. It's true, it has a claming effect (On me) and i like listening to it on days when i'm angry or just to relax and chill a little more. So if you say emo to me it just means the song changes your mood...but all songs do that
that's just my opinion anyway.
they are people who wear pretty retarded clothes that they say are "cool". they cut them selves, think smoking weed is cool. always depressed and rename anyone, and i mean ANYONE with a beard jesus
lol my school is PACKED with emos goths and other weird people me and my friends are the only guys in school who are just normal
damn i'm going to cut my self =P
Emo's usually dress in semi-goth attire with....eye liner (boys wear it >_<) and look like complete fags cause they think everyone's against them; they're "down with the scene" with their haircuts that are cut short on one side and purposely long on the other, with sometimes spiked in the back. They give goths a bad name cause goths HAVE a fashion sense
'Emo' is a matter of opinion.
