I've been called emo on many occaisions when clearly I am not. When I tell my friends that someone called me emo they just laugh. I do listen to some music that can be classified as emo (Something Corporate, Ok Go, and The Format [which is only slightly emo]) only because it is good music.
And I do have one jacket that my friend (who is a girl) gave to me when it was cold that I still have and wear on occaision. It's small, but it looks good on me.
No girl pants, though. No way. Even though my cousin (who is a boy) has a few pairs and told me I should get some.
:lookaroun
I'm not emo, I swear.

I checked into it. Originallly came out in the 60's from Jamica.
Apparently,what I always thought of ska as is what is the Third-wave of ska. Not the original ska from Jamica but influenced by that and punk. Some of the bands fall in to the category of Ska-core.

Call me Mr. Butterfingers!
(Come on there has to be UHF fans out there.............anyone?)
And for the record, I HATE the whole emo scene, punk/hardcore/emo music (I know they aren't the same thing, but they are similar enough), and especially Green Day, who might be my least favorite band ever. But hey if any of that is your thing, that's fine. Don't worry I get made fun of because of my favorite bands all the time :lol:

I always thought emo people to be overemotional, sensitive over the top artists of my prior high school. They hung out together, died their hair black with many different colors, claimed to be outstandingly original but really look exactly like eachother.
HAH I rememberrrrred something funny that happened today - I was at the gym and these "emo" girls (do emo people even go to the gym??) were talking about Simple Plan being EMO...now I'm no music critic (I'm stuck in the 70's haha) but I am almost POSITIVE that Simple Plan is NOT emo.
Can anyone vouch for this?
Bah....sorry for the story, University re-starts tomorrow after Christmas break.

Simple Plan is pop-punk. Mostly pop. Like Green Day. I don't like either.
Most people have never heard of the true emo bands.
Reminds me of one of my favorite South Park lines.Christina said:
Stan: What do I have to do to be a nonconformist?
Goth Kid: All you have to do is look like us, think like us and listen to the same music we do and you can be a nonconformist.

Okay, now I understand what EMO is.
I kept hearing the term being thrown around by the cheerleaders at our last game and I was like w/t/f is that????
Our cheerleaders are not EMO, but know kids who are.
Oh, and I have seen those boys wearing girls pants. I just thought there was gender confusion - didn't realize they were trying to make a statement.
