Another one of me with a cool ass billabong shirt

Hah, these all look like weird myspace pictures.

i think they are weird myspace pics. inhuman the emoest kid i know

Meh, I'm not emo, it's just that nobody understands me; with exception to my journal, myspace, and possibly myself ^_^

hahah that actually made me laugh for some reason. i'm an idiot

Aw, man. You're so...- aww.

there are Bloods and Crips in Wichita fucking Kansas.

I'm pretty bored so here's some info on emo i came across.

I understand that every generation has it's thing. The 50s had mass conformity. The 60s had motorcycle gangs. The 70s had hippies. The 80s were to damned coked up to have anything. The 90s were Generation X.

But now, the new millennium has unleashed a whole new breed of kids. The Emo. They have no cause. No rebellion. They care about nothing.


So, what drives them?

Being sad.

That's it. They are just a bunch of sad little kids running around with bad clothes, horrible hair, and even worse music.

 

From all the research I've done, which basically was seeing them in the mall and looking for a decent CD, there are a few simple rules to being "Emo". Following these simple rules will start you on your way to becoming Emo!
A) If you are a male follower of Emo, hereafter referred to as Malemo, you must at all cost weigh less and be skinnier than your girlfriend.
B) Malemos are required to wear pants 4 sizes too small.
C) You must style your hair so as to appears as messy a possible. This will required painstakingly structuring it just right for hours at a time, using no less than 8 pounds of gel. Hair must be 2 or more colors.

 

D) You must never smile. Ever. You are required to keep the illusion that upper-middle class suburbanites have a whole slew of problems, ergo making you utterly and hopelessly depressed.
E) Online, you must have a screen name consisting of a beginning "Xx", a middle sad name, and an ending "xX". Such as, but not limited to the following; XxathousandtearsxX, XxrazorcutarmxX, and XxcantfeelmypainxX.


F) Malemos are required to wear eyeliner/shadow or nail polish. The only accepted colors are black, dark black, midnight black, ultra black, and black black.
G) Femalemos (see what I did there?) must wear a scarf or knit gloves with the fingertips cut off at all times. Even in August. In Arizona. At noon.
H) There must be at least 5 CDs that you own where the band cries about love eluding them, even though they make millions and probably get laid regularly.
I) All clothing may only be purchased at Hot Topic or a thrift store.

 

J) Remember, you are not quite goth, and not quite punk. In that retrospect, either of these groups are Emo posers that should be ridiculed. Nevermind the fact that you have just taken elements of the fashion of both groups for your own.
K) You hairstyle must at all times cover one, if not both, eyes.
L) Start a band. Can't play any instruments? That's okay! Buy an acoustic guitar and strum one chord when people are around. If this is not possible, find a local Emo band. Cling to them as if your very life depends on it. Should anybody say they are not as good as you believe they are, viciously verbally assault the offender. Should the band "sell out", forego them for another unknown band. Repeat.

 

M) Cut yourself. Not too deep now! You don't really want to die. You just want people to think you do.
N) Myspace is now your life. Live it, love it.
O) Finally, this scene can only fit your personality until you decide to graduate college or get a real job. You will be too busy working to have a house and food to worry about your little band and being sad anymore.
You are finally on your way to becoming one of the Emo elite. You will only associate with other Malemos and Femalemos from this point on. Only they can understand the pain and sadness in your life.

Alright. All the following pictures come from either my town or the town directly next to mine.









That last one is the worst band ever. www.myspace.com/naturalflavors

Finally, I leave you with some of my friends making fun of teh scene kids that our neighboring town is filled with.




They even changed their dodgeball name from civilians to xciviliansx.

does anyone have the picture of the fat blonheaded kid with black lips from the old thread?

that picture was the shit

What the fuck's up with that third picture Hayden?

Umm... Do you mean the guys in the mirror? The first pic is actually two pics put together.

www.myspace.com/erikw NLS's Scene King
www.myspace.com/clanclandestine Scene Queen
www.myspace.com/naturalflavors Scene Soundtrack

HOPE THAT EXPLAINS IT HTANK YOU!

If the first two are one, then I mean the second picture.

He's gross. Pretty much just that.

hahaha. kid's are all sportin the corpse look

He doesn't look like a corpse.
He looks like he just got the shit beat out of him.

i don't know,
if a girl is pretty, i don't fuckin care if she's emo or hip hop or anything

wow, that's a coincidence. Just this morning my mom called me a corpse since I dyed my hair black again. She thinks I'm a goth because I have black hair and I prefer night instead of day.

Inhuman = Most scene person on this board.

You are even more scene than me.

-le gasp-

This is teh funny.

I work for all my clothes, and hot topic is lame.

Corpse Love?

no offense inhuman but you look emo.

No offence taken, I get it all the time. Now get off my thread! :p

i would rather be called emo than goth any day of the week!

I really don't mind people calling me emo, but it's just the fact that it's associated to (what people think is) my chemical atreyufold, which annoys me

then you should just simply stop dressing or whatever you do to make people think you are emo.

does anyone remember freedom of expression..... or has that died out and been forgotten about

word :D

emo is kindof lame

Somebody seems to be trying to up their post count.

I really thought perhaps that on a sonic youth forum I might not see stupid shit like this.
Why are you laughing at them?
I mean seriously,



That one could easily have been thurston, would you have still laughed?


Don't get me wrong, i'm not standing up for these guys particularly, most are probably tossers, but just because they take pictures of themselves doesn't make them an idiot.

i still can't get fully this "emo-thing" ---here in italy i think it's just a style/fashion becoming popular,but is it supposed to have some sort of philosophy behind?i'm asking because i am really ignorant about this subject...
plus:i figured out what emo kids do look like,but are there emo-adults?
or the emo-kids of today will grow up to be the first generation of emo-adults?

hope nobody gets offended by my stupid questions...excluding the shirts with names of band i don't like i think it's not such a bad style,anyway...better than gangsta imo.which brings to my mind another question: where are blak emo-kids??

Not with that hideous thing you call a mouth.

People made a big deal about it, and it turned into some huge stereotype which has nothing to do with the music. Check out http://www.fourfa.com and http://www.myspace.com/therealemo , they have some pretty good info . There's too many people trying to be the "typical emo kid", which is sort of sad. I like the clothing style, that's about it. I really don't know about emo-adults, I have some friends who are in their mid 20's into it, but I don't think it will be too big in about 5 years.

thanks for the links inhuman,i'll check them out as soon as i come back from reharsals with my band (on monday,i think...)...the fact that i'm in my mid 20's makes me an adult??ha he ha,i feel so old....

I don't see any EMO kids in Holland yet. Or maybe I wasn't paying attention.

Richie from the Manic Street Preachers seems a bit EMO to me. Is he?

CN

I wish the grass in my yard was emo so it would cut itself.

hahaha!
