While all the other ones are plausible guidelines to not being emo, the above is total bull****. Who are you trying to kid that people don't cry for losing someone they love? Thats just ****ing pathetic and macho. Oh men don't cry. Kiss my ***. :p

emo IS NOT the same as hipster or scene.

emo - tight girl pants, plaid shirt, old-man sweater, Vans or Converse (old & dirty). thick rimmed glasses. red eyes from crying. girls are easy but the guys never score. usually 14-20. drinks a lot because Oberst does. EXAMPLE: google image oberst

hipster - tight girl pants, plaid shirts/cowboy shirts, trucker hat/old man golf cap, glasses with/without thick rim. cigarette in one hand, PBR or miller hi life in the other. usually 18-25. smokes the reefer because it's cool and bags lots of chicks. EXAMPLE: google image neutral milk hotel

scene - tight girl pants, black band tshirt, white/stud belt, black hair w/ eyeliner. checkered Vans shoes. does NOT smoke or drink because they're straight edge fo' real. usually 16-24. most annoying of the bunch. extremely arrogant and extremely ignorant. unfortunately a lot of hot girls go straight edge/scene and end up being gutter punk sluts to really ugly wannabe goth guys. EXAMPLE: google image My Chemical Romance

that's my definitions from watching/being a part of the Atlanta music scene. The one thing they share is girl pants.

discuss.

I bet a whole load of you guys use the word "legos" so why you're whining about people calling them emos, I don't know.
2006-05-08, 4:56 AM #58
Because "emo" is an adjective, not a noun. It's short for "emotional".

Also, "emos" sounds stupid.

What exactly is the defintion of "Emo" music? Emotional/sad music?

There is so much great music that is very emotional, sad, angry, self-pitying, depressing, whatever... starting from music that was written hundreds of years ago.. so I don't get what people have against it.

I myself as a composer/song writer feel most inspired to write when I'm upset about something.

You can use the same logic for lego:

Lego is a brand name and is an adjective in the sense that it describes a type of toy brick.

Also, "legos" sounds stupid.

Frankly I think both emos and legos sounds pretty dumb. What I was trying to point out is that all this "Oh noes you said it wrong therefore your opinion is invalid!" is hardly pertinent to the thread.

Suprisingly, I have never heard complaints about emo(s) beyond this forum. No one I know even cares about it. I see them walking everyday, I notice that they are lame, and then I continue with my day. I have more important things to think about.

I don't really care about emo people - but don't get me started on those ****ers who pop their collars or wear ties with t-shirts.

People hate emo people because they get embaressed when they see another human being showing emotion beyond what's "cool", therefore the first instinct is to make fun of them.

Basically, emo kids can't cope with the reality of their lives, people who hate emo kids can't cope with the reality of life as a whole.

Okay, emo is basically whiny hardcore punk. Not pop punk, not metal, hardcore punk. It's supposed to be emocore.

But people have taken to describing emo as anything whiny/depressing/sad. It's almost like you can label anything emo to sell it. I guess Guns n' Roses was emo too though, since Axl Rose is a whiny annoying *****. Nine Inch Nails is emo because Trent Reznor is always depressed and angry at the world. Johnny Cash is emo, not only because a lot of emo kids listen to him, but because he's always singing about some guy in jail who is about to die. Depeche Mode may actually qualify as emo. The Backstreet boys are emo because they are always singing about girls. Weezer is emo because Rivers wears thick rimmed glasses. Simple Plan is emo because they are pampered middle class kids. Nirvana was emo. If Massassi started a band, we would most certainly be emo, even if we played two tone ska.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emo_%28music%29

Hot Water Music is emo. Simple Plan is not. I don't like either, but it's annoying when people call everything emo, because then it ends up being that I don't have any way to know wether or not I'm going to dislike a band because they have monotonous screaming and super repetetive lead lines.

However, if you are just talking about people, yeah, emo can be used to describe lots of people, like gbk >_>. But calling Simple Plan emo is just ignorant.

Not pretending to fully understand the meaning of any slang term (as they are by definition fluid and prone to different interpretations by different social groups)...

I think the popularisation of being sad is incredibly stupid, but vindicating people for being genuinely depressed has the potential to be dangerous.

In terms of music/dress sense: jesus, these are individual choices. you can comment on the technical merit of music, or the sensibility of wearing clothing that is uncomfortable/impractical, but beyond that you're just *****ing about nothing.

I'm a size 11 Tall.

My friend Daria says I could probably fit into a 9, but I don't want to find out.

I only own one pair, but it's because it's very hard to find bellbottoms in Maine. Especially corderoy bellbottoms.

Girl trousers, especially jeans, look like they're tight enough without external genitalia. How some of those guys walk about in them I don't know. I'm pretty sure if I tried to take a step or sit down in trousers that tight I'd practically cripple myself.
2006-05-08, 11:36 AM #72
It's simple. They have small genitals. Which might explain their inclination to wear women's clothing in the first place.

You get used to it. I mistakingly bought a pair of really tight pants. Levi's 527s. They were on sale and had plenty in my size (a rarity 'round these parts)! It took about a week of wearing them for my balls to not feel like they were in a vice. Sometimes when they're left in the dryer too long they tighten up too, and it takes a little extra time to get them on.

Girls like guys in tight jeans. Guys hate guys in tight jeans because they see an *** and check it out, only to realize that by doing so they've become homosexuals.

I had a couple guys give me a problem at the bar on night, telling me my pants (The 527s in question, taken in at the knee and given a very large amount of flare at the bottome) made me look like a ***. I politely asked them homos to stop checking out my ***. They stopped bugging me.

I slip my package down the side of one pant leg because there is plenty of room below the crotch on the inside of the thigh. My junk doesn't fit on top of the crotch of normal jeans anyway, so it keeps them nice and in palce.

Also, as mentioned, it's impossible to find un-fat person jeans that fit me.

By the way I wear 10 Regular. :o

What the offended people in this thread don't realize is that the defenition of "emo" has changed--it's now basically anything you want it to be, as long as it's sad and not gothical. And it's more for fun than anything else, you know? Like, "loll emos" :p
