I'm sure you've all heard it before. That horrible music known as emo. Well now, some people decided to take a kick against the well known musicians under the genre and other musicians and celebrities.

It's actually a fun game. Reminds me of a cheap Castlevania or something (especially Alkaline Trio goes to hell)

Their Anti-Bush game was pretty funny too.:P

Recently, as emo has edged its way into the public consciousness, non-fans of the genre (and even some ironic fans) have taken to using the term as a condescending insult, representing the stereotype of the angst-filled and overly-dramatic teenager. Examples include "cheer up, emo kid" or "don't mind him, he's just being emo."

"Emo fashion" seems to be directly derived from pre-existing punk and goth fashions and retains staples from these two, including the tendency for dyed, flat matte black hair and multiple piercings; in particular, labrets and ear "plugs" are prominent. Eyeliner on the males is common. Wrist accessories such as plastic bracelets and wristbands are typical. So-called "emo glasses", identified as thick, black-rimmed "nerdy" glasses, are embraced as a quintessential emo accessory. Rolled-up (and often times form-fitting) jeans and t-shirts displaying sarcastic slogans or images of old-time cartoons are popular as well. More recently, many aspects of emo fashion have become mainstream and are regularly sold at stores like Hot Topic.

Emo fashion, according to its proponents, is deeply rooted in a "being proud of who you are", anti-consumer subculture. Critics of the fashion point out that it has become so mainstream that it has become shallow and antithetical to this notion. To this extent, various websites and magazines have taken to poking fun at "emo kids" and stereotypical emo fashion, some offering guides to "making yourself emo".

Oh emos, how I despise thee!

Everything else you need to know about emo.

Nice game, Blue. :)

Emo kids like to cry.

Beat one to make them happy.

Now I definitely don't cry, but I am a fan of Emo music. The music is driven by emotions which is more than I can say about most genres. It just appeals to me,

and SOMETHING CORPORATE ()\/\/[]\[]$ j00!!!

ha, that bush game was fun.

+rep

Hmm. I like Alkaline Trio. Liked Straylight Run but loss all respect for them when one of their songs played during a commerical for Summerland. *shudder*

Funny story...sort of: Last year when we had to do self portraits for a drawing class they said mine looked like a computer hacker from hell who should be wearing an "Emo Sucks" t-shirt.

I remember gothic kids playing this crap at school last year, thinking they were cool and different becuase they wear black and hate on emo. Looks and plays like absolute crap.

And then the country western mechs come and destroy all!
