I don't understand why people that listen to emo are automatically subjected to the view that they cut themselves and write depressing poetry, as well as like to wear black.

In fact, it's becoming an insult to be an Emo Kid, and I'm not entirely sure why. Why do people dislike emo, and the fans of emo?

Morgoths_Wrath
because it's lame

GCG
color me dumb but what is Emo ? is that short for 'Emotive' ?

Afro Cheese
Cause it's popular at the moment and people love to go against the grain.

jaden101
as i've said before on emo kids behalf...the only difference between emo kids and mosher kids is that emo kids have actually had real girlfriends to sing about

Exactly the kind of answer I didn't want.

I guess, but I don't see why they do so - I mean you don't see fans of emo telling people about Rap Dickheads.

Because nobody wants to hear a sad-sack, the mission in life is to be HAPPY. Emo is the oppisite, they reject happy because they believe it's non-esistant, therfore they know only suffering and to be around them is to cause un-wanted and furthermore un-needed suffering. Thereby determing they contribute nothing positive and therfore should not exsist themselves.

Kindof like liberals only emo is more obvious. laughing

Andrew McLeod
Because Emo is a waste. It's a stupid concept in itself...listening to depressing music and enjoying it because you're so full of angst. I can't stand the goths and emos that think the world's against them. My advice to people like that? Get it over with and kill yourselves. The happy world doesn't need people like you bringing us down. lol

Trickster
Um, no, they don't. They write melancholy songs, but playing a gig in front of hundreds of people isn't an attempt to feel more depressed...

Wait, can't you listen to emo without wanting to kill yourself? I listen to it because I appreciate the rhythmn and the skill. The music appeals to me, not the lyrics - they are part of the music.

GCG
Rap Dickheads .....hummmm....kinda reminds me of the story of dickheads, pussies and assholes in Team America

Oh yes ; im beginning to get the picture of Emo now

mr.smiley
I don't mind Emo music.It's decent.I think one part of the Emo hate comes from the "Punk" rockers.To them,Emo is like the "diet" version of Punk music.

People who bash emo fans must have a more miserable existance than the emo fans themselves, since they care so dearly about what kinda music other people listen to.

Personally emo isn't my thing but I don't care if other people wanna listen to it.

That's different from classing people who listen to rap as twats, though. I wouldn't mind if people said it was crap, but classing an entire group of people as depressed self-harming kids is that unfair. I know that loads of different people listen to rap, and while I don't listen to hardcore 50-Cent kinda thing, I enjoy stuff like Jurassic 5 when I'm round at my mates.

Rap fans get classed as gangbangers if they are black.. and as wanna-bes if they are white. It's all due to the content of the music they listen to.. rap fans get stereotyped just as often as emo fans.

Trickster
Maybe, I guess.

That doesn't happen over here, though. Maybe it just has spread over the net in a way that gangbangers just won't.

I suppose if I lived in a more urban area, I might see that, but I don't in the north of the the UK.

Andrew McLeod
Well...it's not so much Emo I hate but the product of it. Kids who are all angsty...I can never stand them. They just want attention. They completely mock the people who actually have serious problems with their heads.

Personally...Emo's not my bag though. Rap isn't either. I'm weird with my music, I like a crap load of music but not that stuff...ugh. I guess when all a person can do is whine about stuff it makes me annoyed. All this pseudo-punk music these days where they whine about some girl who left them...I hate that as well. Blink 182 should die...along with the wave of similar bands under even more stupid names...Good Charlotte? Simple Plan? Ugh...

GCG
Music is a form of expression.
We express ourselves mostly with a range of emotions.

I really dont see what is this gripe with this emo music as it seems that those against Emo are getting a bit 'Emo' about emo.

HECK ! what irony !

DeRFmAn
EMO SUCKS MY BALLS!!!

Just kidding but it is annoying have guys whine about sh!t nonstop. So some chick dumps you, HELLO YOUR TWENTY-FREAKING-FOUR grow up and realize there are better things in life....like cars....and GOOD music.

Anyway just my thoughts

PEACE MUTHAFUKAS

50 Cent isn't hardcore, he's just shit wink

I don't care what kind of music people listen to, and I really dislike stupid stereotypes based on stuff like that.

periera
Simple, because noone wants to listen to a 25 year old guy *****, moan, and whine about his girlfriend (or ex girlfriend) repeatedly in a whiney I-just-got-kicked-in-the-balls voice for an hour. Oh yeah, and most emo kids/emo bands have retarded haircuts. Plus, it's homogenized, shitty, wanna be punk rock that's a by-product of the pop punk that slaughtered an otherwise good genre of music.

EMO kids are retarded. They think their lives are depressive but they don't know shit:

Definitions of depression:

- a mental state characterized by a pessimistic sense of inadequacy and a despondent lack of activity

- sad feelings of gloom and inadequacy

- depressive disorder: a state of depression and anhedonia so severe as to require clinical intervention

- An affective disorder characterized by extreme and intense sadness, pessimism, sense of inadequacy, etc.

- A mental state of depressed mood characterized by feelings of sadness, despair and discouragement. Depression ranges from normal feelings of the blues through dysthymia to major depression. It in many ways resembles the grief and mourning that follow bereavement, there are often feelings of low self esteem, guilt and self reproach, withdrawal from interpersonal contact and physical symptoms such as eating and sleep disturbances.

Thats Depression.

This is EMO:

- I FUKING HATE SCHOOL, MY GIRLFRIEND IS A STUPID B1TCH, MY PARENTS TREAT ME LIKE SHIT CUZ THEY WON'T COP ME THAT BRAND NEW 50 ALBUM

EMO kids are stupid, and woudlnt' know the first thing about REAL depression. as stated above, depressed people dont' look for attention, they dwell on their depression and hide it from others. I would know, my girlfriend used to be depressive, and trust me depressed people dont' talk about their shit just to anybody, like EMO kids do. The reason why depression is so serious is because it's something that people dont' show on the surface. Thats why it's such a dangerous medical condition to have. EMO kids are just kids seeking attention...

TOPIC CLOSED smile

I Just hate EMO kids because they are stuck up douche bags wearing girls pants and ridiculously tight Black Hoodies and that stupid swooping haircut in their eyes dyed ink black. And aside from that Listen to Shitty Music.

What the **** is your problem?! That isn't funny!

It's people like you who need to be taught a lesson or two.

I love Emo. It's not all depressing, Yellowcard and Taking Back Sunday have none of the 'miserable' stuff.

Is there even such thing as emo? Or is it a made-up genre created by people that hate that kind of music?

Depression isn't caused by listening to that type of music, it's caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain.

But I'm not all emo, gimme' Metallica, Black Sabbith and Iron Maiden anyday! rock

that pretty much hit the nail on the head!


a few of my friends went for the emo look, but they really aren't emo, they just wanted to look it. it was kind of humorous, the hair to the side and the girl pants. every day they were asking different girls to borrow their pants. good stuff.

My final word towards emos:

here's my advice for anyone emo/cutters/suicidal/dperessed/whatever - ready, its gonna be harsh, but its the truth -

kill yourself or SHUT THE F*CK UP! jesus crist, theres 8 year old boys sucking dick just to buy f*cking food...now shut the **** up and realise you have too much f*cking time on your hands. maybe if you were busy sucking dick for food, you wouldn't have time to have angst or pain over the 'trajedy' of life. you know what i'm depressed about, the fact that i have to listen to these whining emo kids all day, and everything they complain about is such f*cking bullshit, i wanna kill every f*cking thick rimmed glasses wearing, tragically hip, angst ridden, bad fashion f*ck that i see. grow some f*cking testicles! i mena, if you are feigning emo to **** some hot little emo chick, big thumbs up, but if you seriously buy into the idea that life is pain, or pain is the only real experience or whatever, just f*cking end it. that last thing we need are you bored, well off, 'can't find anything interesting in life cuz we had it all handed to us' babies running around trying to define pain. and before you say 'i wasn't well off, i was poor', shut the f*ck up. unless you were greasing up your ass at ten so your 30 brothers and sisters could eat, don't waste my time telling me how f*cking trgic life is. boo hoo...

If they want to hate life, wear tight pants and listen to depressing music then let them. It seems pretty harmless to me so really I don't see what the fuss is about.

Boy, I'm dreading the day that it's trendy to be individualistic. Is that even possible? God, I hope not. I couldn't imagine a bunch of kids wearing different colored socks, grandma's panties over their plaid capris, and band shirts for groups like Air Supply and Dead or Alive, with reverse mohawks and pig tails..

It would be the true death of individualism.

I always wanted a Mike McDonald shirt, but I figure, he's probably emo. Actually, Mike McDonald is the blackest white man alive, so I could quite possibly be a wigger, should I so choose to sport said shirt.

Damned if I do, damned if I don't.

I'll tell you what, if a kid walks up to me with ****ing scissors for hands, he can be as emo as he wants to be. He's legit. He's got "cred" with the inner circle elitist emo-er's.

Weezer are not emo in the slightest. They wear glasses with thick black rims. The similarity ends there.

Anyways... I don't understand the "emo kid" bashing either. I listen to some emo, and yet I'm not an emo kid. Hmmm....

Emo kids kinda got the short end of the stick there, in that they're probably the harshest stereotyped, well, stereotype there is. Some people absolutely tear anyone with the tiniest affiliation to emo (ie, me, Weezer) to shreds, and honestly it's ****ing stupid. I have to wonder: have these people ever listened to any emo other than the Spider-Man 2 soundtrack? Do these people know that the music itself (not the lyrics) is derived from the ultra-masculine post hardcore era, whose proponents are so tough, the average Maggit spontaneously combusts under their gaze?

I really don't listen to "emo" Music, but from what you've told me and stuff, I probably wouldn't mind it.
Just what bugs me are the 14 year olds with the Sharpie Black (Yes that is my official term for the color) hair, that talk about cutting themselves and how much their lives suck...
Thats just retarted, and I can't stand it.

wtf is emo music in the first place?

All teens (well 95% of them) think their lives suck. Usually its ones talking about cutting who don't do it anyways.

Because people find it easier to feel ''normal'' themselves i they segregate people into groups where the other group seems more pathetic then themselves.

Whatever happened to being yourself?

Surely emo is jsut a short word for emotional anyway... I would think the only real emo's are the annoying crying shits.

Df02
both sides of this argument are pathetic, the fact that anyone is actually bothered by emo is more embarassing than actually being emo...

and emo is short for emotional hardcore - the amount of times people have spelt that shit out is beyond beleif now... me and Deathblow between up have corrected up to 100 people on that 1 issue.

emo has been around 20yrs, it'll be around for quite a while aswell, the fact it's become popular recently seems to have bothered a few people for some reason... god knows why, i'm not a huge fan of the black leather and long hair style of metal but i don't plaster the forums about how pathetic they are for choosing to fit a scene and 'worship the devil and get sweaty and fling their hair about' or whatever ridiculous stereotype people come up with about EVERY music genre.

one of the best southpark scenes ever:

Goth 1:
Life is pain. Life is only pain. We're all taught to believe in happy fairytale endings. But there's only blackness. Dark, depressing loneliness that eats at your soul.

Goth 2:
Who needs that kind of Barbie love, anyway? Everyone's just walking around like a bunch of conforminsts. Go ahead and wear your business suits so you can make thirty-four thousand dollars a year to buy your condominium. They're all zombies racing to their graves. Love didn't work for my mom and dad. Why should it work for me?

Goth Girl:
My dad is such an *******. Drunken bastard doesn't even know I exist. But then he won't let me go to the Skinny Puppy concert because my heroine-addict aunt is coming over for dinner. Dinner? That's a laugh. Just an excuse for my mom to ***** at me for not wearing girly clothes like all the Britney Spears wannabes at this school.

Little Goth:
They're all a bunch of Nazi conformists cheerleaders.

Stan:
But if life is only pain, then... what's the point of living?

Goth 1:
Just to make life more miserable for the conformists.

Stan:
All right, so how do I join you?

Goth 2:
If you wanna be one of the non-conformists, all you have to do is dress just like us and listen to the same music we do.

Imaginary
laughing out loud

I enjoy listening to Emo music, but I'm definitely not emo. I listen to it for the music, not the lyrics. I'm a pessimist, but I don't whine about how much my life sucks and how I wanna die, because I don't think my life sucks and I don't wanna die. Stereotyping genres are stupid.

Why care that some people like emo? It's not your problem.

People that hate emo kids are intolerant pricks. It's time to accept others for being themselves. They accept the fact that you like your music, now let them like theirs.

I'm part emo, part rock! rock

Ack, emo kids, aka the kids with stupid square framed glasses and intentionally messy hair who think that because theylisten to At The Drive In they're experts in politics.

Them, goths, skaters, wiggers, gangstas and wannabe rappa's should all drown in the ocean.

Emo kids that label themselves aren't being themselves. They are walking contradictions. The same goes for people that define their lifestyles with their music.

So pointless..just be. Period.

In fact, it's becoming an insult to be an Emo Kid, and I'm not entirely sure why. Why do people dislike emo, and the fans of emo?

i dont know who is emo or who is punk...

I've come across punks like you before. You lived in some ghetto were you sucked at school and your parents didn't love you. You get feed up with it and resorted to petty crimes. This world was not meant for you, run along little boy! eek!

Anyone else here heard the emo song by Anti-Flag? I think it's called "Emo sucks", but I'm not sure.

Awesome song.

Afro Cheese
It's called Indie Sux, Hardline Sux, Emo Sux, You suck! and it's hardly an awesome song. The overall message of the song is "we're too punk to make good music."

Uhh... No offense BC, since I semi-agree with you, but that really was a lame comeback. Then again, so was "just bite the bullet and hush." Both could be classed as the kind of insult one uses when they want people to think they've put up one hell of an argument, when in reality they haven't. This has truly deteriorated into one of the dumbest flame-wars I've ever read. Please stop. You're hurting me...

BlackC@t
Okay Revan, I'll stop. But only because we are both Sith Lords.

DeRFmAn
Hey A. Cheese who made you the big critic? I don't believe that you're qualified enough to say that that much music sucks. Last I checked we were just talking about emo...anyways.

Trickster
Didn't see you arguing with him before, when he was talking abut music. Only as soon as he disagrees with you.

But yeah, I think this is a thread that is deteriorating.

I'd just like to say, I like Emo and Punk, and Ska. As well as other stuff... But I think it's stupid that the term Emo is now used as an insult.

BlackC@t
I agree, Trickster.

But we're all different. Don't sterotype us!

DeRFmAn
I'm not saying everyone who listens to it is stupid I'm just saying the average "emo" kid doesn't know much about music. They like emo because all their little friends like emo. I don't consider emo to be an insult so much as it is a discriptive word. I believe the only time I came close to insulting anyone was with my last post which wasn't meant to be insulting and the one before it where I agreed with whoever it was aobut some dumb comeback because it was a lame comeback. I didn't even mean it in a harsh way just joking. Most of the sh!t I do say is meant to be taken litely. Thats just the kind of guy I am. Anyway I like cinnamon rolls thems good mmmmmm......I think I spelled cinnamon right, never really had to spell it all that often. Ok I'll stop yammering on now.

Sorry if you were insulted by me saying that song isn't awesome, but I'm sure you'll get over it.

DeRFmAn
Nah I wasn't insulted, I was just messin'. I'm not easily angered. I was just asking for your qualifications. Thanks for providing them. thumb up

Wait, can't you listen to emo without wanting to kill yourself? I listen to it because I appreciate the rhythmn and the skill. The music appeals to me, not the lyrics - they are part of the music.

Me too big grin

why? because they tend to sing about relevant things (ie: political issues) and not about some ***** that cheated on them in the ninth grade and ruined their life forever??

It just depends on the EMO person or any person belonging to its stereotyped group for that matter (punks, skaters, etc). There are many people who try to be something they are not. This world has its share of hypocrites. So you're saying ALL EMO kids don't try to be something they're not? That doesn't really make sense. =] Anyways, I'm done.

Yet they say that and they usually hang out in a big ass EMO groups having a good time and go on with their hypocritical theories. In my opinion, EMOs are full of shit and DO try to fit in.

In my time spent on this earth I have learn to acept people for what they are, I knew a girl once, she was one of these emo kids but I grew to love her, and she made me laugh.

If you feel I disrespected you in some way, then I apologize. The way I see it, you should feel happy and enjoy life and be glad you don't have to struggle like other people in other countries who starve, are opressed, or have no shelter. People take too many things for granted and don't come to their thoughts and instead make their own lives as miserable as they possibly can. Most of the time, its not their own lives that make them "depressed", it's themselves.

Filth
Worry not friend you did not disrespect me as I feel everyone is alowd there own opinion. However it is my belief that depression is very painful thing to experience and it can feel far worse than any physical pain, so the ones who are depressed have right to complaine about life, but those who pretend are not worthy of life.

Like he said you take way too much shit for granted you should join the red cross go over to ethiopia (however you spell that) and take a good friggin look around because you obviously have it better then most of them seeing as how since you are on a computer, which means you have shelter, electricity, luxuries that others dont (such as computers) and I doubt you are starving because if you were you would sell your computer to get some friggin food so quit your goddamn whining friggin cry baby.

I apologize for being so harsh but wake the f*ck up.
