emoRANDOM-ness

A lot of people get emo all the time
But what does emo really mean
Does it just mean squatting at a corner?
Soes it just mean being really emotional?



or Is it really just an excuse when guys tears?

or when tough people feel like crying..?


Is it suicidal love?

Is it when two hearts drifts so far apart they can't bear it anymore?

Or is it the one who has been forgetten way too long?

Or is it just plain suicidal?

Emo clothing is typically black, mixed with smaller amounts of shockingly bright colors, especially, but not limited to, their hair. While emo hair is mostly black as well, there are often flamboyantly bright highlights.

A rare sighting.Emos tend to favor one-eyed hair cuts. Some believe this hairstyle to have stemmed from a lack of self-esteem or so that they can look more like God, but it is more commonly believed that they only have one eye.

They can be easily identified by their ridiculously tight jeans if male (stolen from sister's closet or bought at Macy's). Specifically for the males, wearing tight pants, white studded belts, and small band t-shirts are prevalent. Piercings, eyeliner, and long hair are also common but not necessary.

It is often times very difficult to identify the gender of an emo, and even the emo themself may not be entirely sure of their sex. Many of the emo kind express this by saying they are bisexual. Contrary to popular belief, this is not just a fashion trend; they just cannot decide whether they are male or female.

Many enjoy taking pictures of themselves with one side of their face showing, as if they are ashamed of being them. This, like the haircut, further leads people to believe that emos have only one eye. Smiling in pictures is rare, and it is common to give the peace sign sideways for no apparent reason.

A majority of those in the emo subculture are vegetarians. Why? No one knows. It is common to see an emo eating a large salad while looking rather pathetically at a "normal" person consuming a tasty hamburger. Others who push the self-righteousness further follow the "sxe" lifestyle, also known as "Straight Edge", where they refuse to drink, smoke, eat, or have sex (including masturbation). There has been little noted distinction between the "Straight Edge" lifestyle and the moral code of Catholicism.

It is 100% absolutely true that being "emo" constitutes committing self-harm, writing poetry, being depressed, and identifying one's self as bisexual. There are many other characteristics of the emo subculture, but further research is needed to accurately describe them.

Emos enjoy dark, dry places and middle-class suburbs.

Another place of interest is, in fact, their own bathroom. They derive entertainment out of taking pictures of the reflections of themselves, often showing the camera flash. This has proven another fact. The fact is that emos are horrible photographers. With all this in mind, common logic would be to shun them from society, or throw them into a pack of wild wolves. It should also be noted that if one were to want to see an example of an emo, all they would have to do is look on MySpace.

When roaming outside of their homes, they can be found at their local high school amongst their peers. In this environment, the emo's natural predator is the jock. They're also commonly found roaming the local mall, in much abundance, specifically Hot Topic and stores near it. In order to go past this area, a gas mask and earmuffs are required. Don't ask why! Just do it! Emos will often attend a concert (referred to as a "show"), standing completely still. Homoeroticism may insue, so if you ever find yourself in this position, get the fuck out now!

Other habitats include browsing at the local record store (rarely ever purchasing a record), sitting in dark corners smoking cigarettes, sitting in a park on a child's swing, sitting at that one table outside the coffee shop that was supposed to be for decoration.

Are you still so sure you are an emo?
