What are your views on 'emos' ?

[Antallica]

I think most of them are wanna be's.
they cheese me off at school
There like.

' I DONT WANNA DO THIS DARN WORK, I JUST WANNA LISTEN TO HAWTHORNE HEIGHTS '

and they put on this accent like american with a girly sound in it.


most of its attention.


Whats your views?

[Jazza]

I didn't mind them before but I got called emo a while back and I've liked them less and less since.

[jesus]

if they dont bother me, i dont bother them

a lot of them are attention seekers yer

i only like the fit girl ones :rolleyes:

[Fez]

I was one a couple of months back, so they don't bother me, but you see so many of them trying to hard.

[Antallica]

Yeah, i only like the fit girl ones too.

[cocaine]

mylifeissuchadrag__x

ye they annoy me

[brapp]

they're the scum of the earth____________________________x

[Fifteen]

<slit> ------ </slit>

[Nemo]

They generally annoy me -_- its like "YER I HATE MY LIFE BUT IM GNNA HARM MYSELF ANYWAY" I never got self harming. It is something very deep in mental but i never understood it. They are just attention seekers anyway.


And i agree with the above, i like the fit girl ones ;P

[Charlie]

They are people like you and me, but the only thing is, they dress differently, like differnet music whatever.

If everyone was the same, we'd be bored, so be glad there is is a bit of difference out there, whether it's goths, emos, chavs.

@people who mention self harming. You have to realise that there is people that don't do it for pure attention, but because it's a way of helping themself cope with problems. I've been there and I never did it for attention. The people that do do it for attention are just idiots.

[jesus]

Yeah, I hate it that it is a 'emo' sterotype..and people are like 'U HAVE 2 CUT URSELF 2 B EMO' then all these trend *****s actully go and cut themselves for no reason...

Self harming as a way to cope with problems? Sorry but that is crap! The majority of the people cope with their problems without the need to slit! And the majority of people who slit don't have "problems" whatsoever. You don't see people in 3rd world countrys slitting because they can't feed their own children. I think slitting is often based around the music they listen to. Notice how you never see 'chavs' slit and it's usuall the 'emo' people!

thats chavs mate
chavs are miles better than emos, and most people in general anyway!

[cocaine]

I was one a couple of months back

lol@that

[brapp]

thats chavs mate

not really. 'least chavs listen to decent tunes and wear decent clothes and shoes etc etc.

That your opinion.

[CJW93]

If there is "valid" reason for them slitting. Go see someone becuase you need help

[FlyingJesus]

Ant you can't talk about being a wannabe

[Roboevil]

I can't tell the difference. I hate nearly everyone so yeah, I hate 'em.

[adrian]

i dislike individual people, i don't hate a so called 'group' of people as i don't really judge a bunch of people on how one person acts, or vice versa.

[today]

i always laugh when emos -> slit slit.

Its not always true. I've known chavs to slit slit.

[Roboevil]

My friend cut herself, so I called her a stupid cow. She started smoking the other day too, I told her she stinks and that she's a stupid cow. I think it hurt her feelings- oh well she's a silly cow.

[mat64]

There's a small group in our year 10, I keep my distance really. I find them irritating at times but half of the time I can just stay away, then there's no problem.

[FlyingJesus]

i dislike individual people

I know it's not how you meant it, but I hate "individual" people - the sorts who think they're above everyone and somehow great just because they don't label themselves. Even worse is when they actually go out of their way to do something just because it's not something a lot of other people do, it's just sad that people feel they have to be original all the time when there's no such thing as originality.

[GommeInc]

I find them a waste of space and as bad as chavs. If you slit your writsts or hate your life, get real. Most emos have friends, so what else do you need to get by with? Most emos aren't even emo anyway, they're just scene people thinking they want to be a bit different and try calling themselves emo.

[Cwmbran]

Self harming as a way to cope with problems? Sorry but that is crap!

From experience with my friends, they have self harmed because they felt as if they hurt someone and wished they didn't, they believed that they should pay for their actions therefore they self harmed. It helped them cope, so sorry it's not crap.

I'm not saying that everyone that self harms does it for that reason, but that is the one I have seen happen.

People that do it for attention are just pathetic, also it's not just "Emos" that self harm, I know a few chavs that have for some stupid reason where somebody would insult them and put them down, and then they would self harm.

An even better reason for labelling them as ***** then, eh..

[benjamin]

THEY ARE WELL EMO

[Burns]

ur all emos

[jesus]

THEY ARE WELL EMOive noticed that too actually

[lAdmire]

I just think they are depressed people trying to find out who they really are.

[RedStratocas]

idk. i dont care what people listen to/wear. as long as they aren't jerks to me, i dont care much.

but sunny day real estate, jimmy eat world & ...aywkubttod ftw.

[Boonzeet]

ive noticed that too actually
If only I could rep you XD

Sorry but,
Emos are just people. Because they act different and solitary to the rest of us does not give people the right to crititcise them.

And the self harming is just their thing.

Dont have to insult them, just dont get involved.

[le harry]

i hate them.

[alexxxxx]

they're alright. unless they are like wannabes. and not real emos.

[danny-dyer]

lol should be all shot :)

[Xarea]

"Do it yourself, so I don't have to."

[&]

allot of you are rather stereotypical..

apparantly i dress like them haha.
i love the shoes, skinnies etc but the music is just ewwww :(________x

[hobo]

i don't believe they exist.
emo's are just wannabes, people desperate to fit into some kind of group so giving themselves a label so they can fit in with other "emos".

[RedStratocas]

you need to learn the definition of "stereotypical". youre not the only person who seems to think it means someone who stereotypes others, i've seen other people use it the same way, and it really annoys me. stereotypical means to fit easily into a category. it's the person being stereotyped, not the person doing the stereotyping.

[GhostFace-]

They wanna be different and stand out and want attention so the slice themselfs

i dont no any emos so ;/

[bigdavecox90]

Wannabe's who need to get a life!

[-Soph-]

I wish their pants would make them infertile - the REALLY stereotypical ones anyway, I don't mind the ones who just dress scene.

[Roboevil]

Removing them from the gene pull is a good idea.

[today]

I like the style.

[whoooosh]

they are just people

[brapp]

tbh i love emos apart from the hair, clothes, shoes, attitude and music.

[Callum.]

******* hell. you lot make up so much ********.

i get called emo all the time, longish hiar - stylish, screamo/emo music, but i don't do the "my life is such a drag" ****.

the people i hang around with don't either. it's just a different style, and music type. we just hang around place, like some of you.

chavs at my school refuse to do the work, not "emos".

you make so much **** up.

im the same i get called emo and i like some of the music and i dress with topman clothes and all i get called emo but i dont think i am. :\

[Technologic]

I hate chavs more..

[Virgin Mary]

They look weird and act weird. They try and act all moody on myspace but irl they're just quiet and don't do anything.

[English]

On Myspace emos are 'BROOTAL/BRUTAL' but in real life they are quiet as hell! Morons!

[Virgin Mary]

Emos just think they're hard but go and cry about how bad "chavs" are because they get bullied by them. Oh, how br00tal.

[Callum.]

i agree with the myspace thing, most do anyway. i'm just myself on myspace, and i wear topman clothes aswell. they're like really nice, and stylish i think. you actually look nice, rather than track suits and stuff.

but yeah, i still stick with my opinion about the "i hate my life" ****.

[Ashley 12344]

Leave 'em to it I say. Although most people I see aren't actually full on emos, if thats what their into then whatever tickles their fancy.

Funny when the chavs chased 'em outa skate park though :P

[liar]

wannabe emos (ones who like mainstream crap) i hate. the cool emos, the one that listen to good music i like.

[Elliott$]

Sorry if I cause any offense but I think emo's are pathetic.

They slit their rists for attention.
They mooch all day.
I mean what sort of life do they lead?! :S

[:Liam]

The way some of them are so dramatic over the stupidest things, Im going on the stereotype here I'm not saying all emos are dramatic so dont take offence.

going on the stereotype this great actor made a podcast to show how annoying emos are:

Aye, it does.. I can criticise anyone I want. People that wear coloured skinnies and what have you do my head in aswell, well the ones I know do..

[Ashley 12344]

Forgot about them. One part of it I don't like.

Also, the lads who have longer hair than most of the girls, specially when its just a long greasy thing.

[Eoin]

No tae bathered really, em no awa tae tell em whit tae dae ken?

[Qamp]

There lonely people just ignore them.

[mousey]

Well, My Best mate was and emo, her mum found out, personally i dont see the point in self harm, lifes worth living, and with paint surely it would make it worse?

So i dont see the point tbh!

[benjamin]

emos suck lol

this emo girl in my english class sits there drawing on her arms words like 'FORGIVENESS' and 'DEPRESSION' and fake slits, she gets told to do her work and she turns hawthorn heights up on FULL BLAST baby.

she's a sad pathetic loser who does it for attention.

[-:Undertaker:-]

I don't have a problem with them, it's just a music fashion and they aren't doing any harm.

[Loqo]

I dont like em, desperate for attention. :)

lol I remember that

[5,5]

I just try to stay away from them cuase they're weird xD

[MusicPalace]

I think emo's are hot(not the way they act, but the way they dress...cause there are some who don't dress emo)
I don't know many, but the ones I do know are awesome people. Sure their self-esteem is really low, but they're still good people. They don't care what people think and that makes me admire them.

[&]

im no way emo, but i do dress like them.
i like the style.

i get shouted emoooooo all the time.
its really annoying x_X

[-:Undertaker:-]

I like the style too.

[CrazyColaist]

i love emo styles. in a way

[Earthquake]

EMO GIRLS ARE FIT!!! BUT THE OVERWIEGHT ONES NO THANKS! AND EMO BOYS SOUND WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[VPSwow]

I hang around with chavs and emos (yes at the same time)....

I dont have a problem with them, their music is cool and they havnt done anything wrong to me so i dont have a problem with them.

[Ezzie.]

Meh.. they're fine.. they just annoy me when they do the attention seeking aspects etc, if they want to dress emo and be... emo then go ahead.. it's sort of buddhist anyhow.. the whole noble truths of suffering.

[sarey]

ugh in my school we got these group of girls and boys all wearing black and it's all depressing and stupid and pathetic and they show off these little scratches on their wrist, LIKE LITERALY, YOU COULD BARELY SEE THE DAMN THINGS, and make it out to be SOOOO dramatic and brag about it.

Some people have generally got real problems but people like that in my school are just...
pathetic.
Not everyones like that.
I'm just saying people like that really ...
...
annoy me.

[Decapitated!]

lol .

[RedStratocas]

there are many many people who don't care what people think of them. And all kids who call themselves "emo" actually do care what others think of them. why would they need to tell everyone that they're emo? why can't they just dress how they want, and have people have their assumptions?

I have nothing against how people dress or anything, but it gets me irritated when people are like "emos are hot," because thats such a massive generality.
