Emmo?

I once wrote tenth-rate, self-loathing "poetry" about getting speeding tickets and wore Chuck Taylor All-Stars, but not at the same time.
 
I find it more than a bit strange that some people are forming an opinion on a genre that was at its height before they were out of kindergarten.

Scenester, emo, whatever... the average music elitist (howdy Pitchfork) is just as annoying. Nearly all genres produce some catchy music, too. Hell... maybe emos play into the stereotype these days because it's what they want you to think. Conspiracy! :ouch:
 
Never have been and definitely never will be an emo :yuck:

I have cut myself a lot before though, just not on the wrist. Not because of depression, or angst, just too much rage and nowhere to put it. I also have done it just for the feeling a few times. I stopped because the source of anger has died down a bit, and i want the scars on my thigh to go away.
 
Oh yeah, i forgot to tell you guys. I am really,really emo.
I cry a lot, did cut my wrist once (over a stupid thing), have an emo fashion sense (got the spikes but not the hair :() and of course listen to all of the emo/screamo bands.

Yeah, now i'm really going to get flamed for this and get -rep on this post :lol:
 
i would prefer not to drive a nail through my head. i would rather do this to my head :banghead:. stupid stars.

You do know real emo kids don't call themselves emo right?

By the way, I'm not emo. I am hXc Yo. Just kidding.
 
I guess you could say that I used to be. I have a horrible anxiety issue, which used to make me extremely depressed most of the time. I used to cut, but I managed to drop that after thearapy and stuff. As recently as May I was writing poems that I guess you'd call self-loathing, but they were entirely driven by frustration with a certain relationship I had and still have with someone. Anyway, now I really realize that it's good to be happy. I rarely get lonely anymore though I do prefer to be alone. I am usually mellow, yet content now. It is very good to be happy, and even better to be cool.
 
...I thought it was funny...

Its not like it was much worse than the photos of Hulk Hogan smashing the car his son crashed in...
 
I never saw an explanation on the difference between "Emo" and "Goth." If someone could explain, I'd really appreciate it.

Heh.





And one more just for fun because FOB sucks.
 
Good compilation.

My school is a clean school, but the occasional emo always gives us a bad image.

I never knew prehistoric emos were what we sometimes call, 'nerds'.

Edit: For the lovely little comment there (removed for reasons known), YES, I in fact do have a slight mental deficit since an accident that occurred 2 weeks ago, so I needed a reminder!
 
You guys need to get some better recording equipment or something, I could hardly tell what was going on but the parts that I heard I thought was pretty good.
 
Gah, everyone's a bit emo at times... Suppose I'm of the "prehistoric" sort (thanks for the indie rock influence!).
 
Hmmmm. Adidas shoes, classics, racers or bounces.

Adidas/nike shorts
Adidas/nike pants, same color
Adidas/nike shirt, same color
Adidas/nike sweatshirt, same color.

Definitely emo.

Who? Assnyne? If So, we actually only used a single mic to record most of those tracks, and I did most of the editing afterwards to try and even out the drum to everything else ratio, but yeah it still sucks (recording-wise).
