An Introduction to Emo

Emo kids, they are an epidemic on the rise. They sit alone, they cry for no reason and nothing is ever good enough for them. Emo kids likely have a parent with a minivan; this is where most emo kids discover how much they hate their lives. The backs of minivans are a breeding ground for self-loathing and disgusting fashion statements.

Worried that your son or daughter may be an emo? Does you son where women's pants? Does he have the same hairstyle as his female friends you know the one. If your son is rocking the whole layered look with long bangs that cover his eyes, there is a good chance he is either gay or emo. What is the difference you ask? Well gay people are still respectable, they realize that they are different sexually but not different from you and I in any other way. An emo on the other hand wants to express themselves as different and refuses to conform to the norm.

If poetry and razor blades are two of the favorite purchases of your child, know that you definitely have an emo kid. Emo kids tend to read and write poetry while cutting themselves. Unfortunately however most parents don't catch on to these antics until it is too late. Emo kids have a high suicide rate because they are so depressed about how much their lives suck.

When I was younger we had a form of emo, they were known as Goths. They walked around dressed in black, they would get as pale as possible staying inside all summer. Goths were actually not too bad though due to the fact that their taste in music was alright. Anyone who listens to heavy metal or rock is fine in my book. However sadly, Goths began to associate with Punks and thus the lamest trend of all time was born. The emo is essentially the disgusting love child of Goths and Punks. They were retarded looking fashions just like punks but they have ultra lame haircuts like the Goths did.

Emos tend to listen to crappy music as well, it's all about sad feelings and cutting yourself with scissors or spoons or something like that. Its just absolute rubbish, no real meaning whatsoever and it just has this irritating sound to it. Imagine to yourself what it would sound like if somebody with no skill were given a bass drum and a snare. That is how the drums go in most emo songs. No real skill needed there. Have the guitar played really lame and boring and you have the basis for emo music. The main trait to emo music however is the annoying lead singer. Usually this is a man with a woman's haircut who is wearing his girlfriends pants which are so tight you can see his junk squished across his leg which is no thicker then a 6 year old's arm.

Sadly, emo kids appear to not be going away. The trend is here and sadly looking like it will stick around for a couple more years.
