God please watch this, it's fucking amazing how dumb the media can be sometimes.

Adults don't have to same access to young people's lives as young people do. You can expect them to know little about us and worry about us.

I know but they say emo is like a game, from what i've seen i dont know any hardcore emo people but im damn sure it's not a game for points.

That game is called "The internet".

The worst is when you have an emo 4chan user.

FOX reports: INTERNET HATE MACHINE DRESSES IN DARK COLOURS AND CUTS ITSELF.

I actually read the article on wikipedia about "emo music" and so I pretty much know how "emo" came to be. I am always called emo from the people our age but they just don't really know the definition of emo.

I write poetry, and it's generally morbid, but it's not because I am "emo" it's because I like to write poetry and it just so happens that writing morbid lyrics is easier for me then stuff like leaves falling in the autumn...

I write songs, they are generally pretty cruel, saddening and taking a perspective of the world people don't want to see, but that's the perspective in which I see and I feel like writing it...

I also write songs simply because I love singing, so, expressing myself? sure... but I think it's pretty easy to express yourself in modern society... Music, Sports, Art, Coding, Photography, Religion, Fashion, and obviously a ton more.

Mapping / modding is the best though

When I first read the topic I thought, "Oh so ToA finally admits it."

Emos are sinners that will feel God's wrath.

devilisk. Emo means something different to everybody. I know the emos that are sad, hate life, don't talk, and most likely cut themselves. But some people just conform, I know a kid who copied everything his best friend did. Some people may be rejected that every one else and feel comfort to be part of something. I conformed not to emo but another style for a short time and then i asked myself "wtf am i doing this for?" and now i just act like myself. My dad said he smoked weed in high school just because it was a fad. Emo is no different.

So the media doesn't think the emo song was a joke... Dumbasses

Emo is the atheist that still WANTS to believe in a god, but logic has control of their beliefs. I recently left emo and became atheist, because i stopped wanting to believe in a god. I lost hope. is that a sin, devilesk? i wouldn't know...

Wtf are you talking about. Emo is a style. Like Prep, or Punk. Not a religious standpoint.

"God's wrath" is social banishment from all that worship the so-called "god" or "gods."

...emo is more than a style, more than a religious standpoint, i find it one of the most complex kind of person on the world, next to avid religion-followers and avid atheists.

You honestly can't say that about everybody. First you have to understand emo. Which is why the topic need to be focused on the Cut-themselves emos or the attention whores which if you didn't know is now called a scene kid. OR... any other "type" of emo. I will ask before anybody continues that you judge things WHY they are done, not what they have done. (Example: Emos cut themselves) you can talk whatever you want about it but it will never make sense until you ask yourself why they cut themselves.

in a poll conducted by the government, most said that they cut themselves because it helps them to channel their thought processes, or something like that.

I remember it having something to do with people taking there problems and blaming themselves. Then punishing themselves by cutting themselves.

i don't remember that at all... and i just read it recently...

well i got it off the news. they interviewed a girl that cut herself and that what she said. idk.

I just thought of something funny... an emo hemophiliac. Rofl...

At 1:43, they have questions "Do you wear sweaters?" and both interviewed girls were wearing sweaters.

Rofl wtf?

yeah... i second that abbreviated comment...
