Old fart asks: What is EMO Culture?

[Lunchcutter]

In summary "emo" culture is another form of attention seeking by way of assuming your self imposed misery will compell people to heap sympathy upon you,which in turn gives you reason to feel miserable.

A certain vein of music allows,and feeds this misery.

I read:

"Emo's are people who wish to kill themselves but dont have the guts to do it."

dont you read? what about those two girls (16 year olds) in suburban melbourne who killed themselves a couple of weeks ago by hanging themselves in the forest? or the countless other teenage suicides (alot of so-called emos) see http://www.mydeathspace.com check ourt the forums there... educate yourself ..

emo's = quite pathetic, especially when in the form of a gang, very funny stuff.

emos= waste of space and shouldn't be breathing the same air that we do.

[BenchedEagle]

emos= waste of space and shouldn't be breathing the same air that we do.

Why? coz they dress differently, listen to different music and express themselves in wussier ways? Different strokes make the world go round!

Emo's probably think you're a waste of space & shouldn't breathe the same air they do- as might a few non-emo's....

[power01]

Emo's those little bastards that dress in black clothes, have more holes in their body than is naturally possible and hairstyles that should never be seen in public. The lot of them are a complete waste of space although I have seen one wearing cricket whites go figure.



They also have a convention once a year I believe its called the Big Day Out

LOL....Gold..

[Footy Chick]

My sister is very much an Emo

I sumise them as punks who have "emotions" and arent afraid to express them. They write crappy poems and like to cut themselves for pleasure (this is no joke). A lot of them are into the macabre and bands like my chemical romance. I dont see the point but who am i to judge. I wore my fair share of ripped jeans and flannelette, which my dad complained about. My dad wore his flares and bell bottoms, which my grandad complained about. Just another new generation for us old farts to complain about. Could be worse they could be "homies"!

You wore flannelette? gee i never would picked it.

Or do you still wear flannelette?

[power01]

Actually its quite simple REB, like any of these groups/styles/fashions etc they are only looking for two things..
one is to be noticed and stand out in a crowd and the second is to feel like they belong to something eg punks, skinheads etc etc....................

and lastly they do have one other thing in common............they are all tossers!!!........

emo = elmo (at least he makes more sense and money)

Yeah, coz you're the epitome of 'Cool'

I'm no fan of the whole Emo scene, but they're so f'n harmless who gives a rat's clacka?

[whatcha got there?]

i have a lot of emo friends.
they class themselves as "emotional" beings. however, as far as im concerned its just a trend.


they think they are being different.
if they are so "different" why are there like 8902859032 walking the streets?

I recently saw 'SPIDERMAN 3'
When the Webslinger wears the black suit created by the malevolent alien symbiote 'Venom'
Spidey's alter ego 'Peter Parker' exposes his dark side takes on the whole Emo look, the whole stupid hairstyle & everything!

...MATE, that must be the most dorky, geeky post I've ever made!

Ive got a website for you Lunchy

http://www.darwinawards.com

There is a difference between depression and emo. A lot of the deaths on mydeathspace are from dickheads doing dickheaded things, drug overdoses, driving stupidly....

[tazz]

Im not an emo but i like emo music.

[Lunchcutter]

Thanks for that pafc i am well aware of what the Darwin Awards are. The point i was trying to make is that many of the articles on mds http://www.mydeathspace.com A large percentage of the youth suicides are "emo" kids like the two young girls who killed emselves by hanging in metro melbourne recently
