I HATE EMO KIDS
by KittensKill at 11pm, July 28th, 2008 in GeneralEquality is fiction. It’s a dream, a wish. Everyone wants to be treated the same. But it will never happen. And yet many say that diversity is good, but if you are different you are hated. I can’t make sense of that. Its worth more thought, but it’s not what I’m interested in today.
Your life sucks. You don’t look the way you want to look, you don’t have any friends, and no one cares about you. Your parents are mean, your siblings are spoiled, your boy/girlfriend dumped/cheated on you. Life is misery; you cry, you cut, you want to suicide.
I feel sorry for you, but can you shut the fuck up? Seriously. Don’t you think I have enough of my own problems without you whining in my ear for hours on end about how you can’t go to the concert you wanted to go to, that you’ve been grounded for another month, that your goldfish died.
Get over it.
Oh, you’re oh so miserable, you’re depressed, maybe you have some nasty mental illness, but you won’t go get yourself checked out.
Here’s what I think: It can always get worse.
You might get hit by a bus. Or maybe a satellite will fall through your roof and your dog will be killed, or your house will burn down, taking with it all your expensive clothes.
Actually, I really don’t care about you. You bore me with all your exaggerated problems; you bore me with your imagined loneliness. Your poetry sucks, your songs are lame, and you couldn’t play a tune to save your life. I’m sick of your shitty myspace photos, all tears and frowns, I’m sure you’d look really nice if you smiled in a normal photograph, you know, old school.
I don’t hate you, I don’t hate the way you dress, and I don’t hate the music you listen to. What I do hate is the stereotype you’ve helped create. I hate the way YOU have helped to give emo a bad name.
And one more thing, I want you to remember: There is always someone worse off than you.
Have a nice day.
& this blog officially made my night. It needed to be said. (:

Added July 30th, 2008 at 10:44 amMight have been original if every guy with a carrot up his azz hadnt said it before you…all u are is someone complaining about people complaining…try being nice, not ridiculing them…that is if you really care about what your complaining about, otherwise it’ll never change…being a jerk wont cause anybody to change their mentality.
Added July 30th, 2008 at 4:25 pmSure it does…
Talking to them like “normal people” do is like throwing gasoline on a fire…

Added August 3rd, 2008 at 12:08 amhaha you are soo right rock on dude
Added August 4th, 2008 at 6:20 pmcan’t believe you emos arent bad. thats what every1 thinks cause they dont understand us. emos understand way better than anyone else. they have the gift of feeling pain and sadness. they dont have to cut their wrists. life isn’t about talking badly about others. not everyone is the same. some emos are aggressive others giving others depressed 24/7. to me though when i hurt myself it calms me down. atleast i dont pour it out others but sometimes i do. everyone will have an emo moment for a second or so. emo just means emotional basically. please don’t hate emo people not all of them are crap. its usually not our fault. i didnt choose to be emo. how would you know what has happened to us. you never know and i dont share the sad past i try and forget it others may just eep it with them and not get over it but once you’re emo its kinda like a drug to me. its hard to get out. its hard to admit who you are. people at my school keep saying “are you emo” to me and i reply no but i am. no one is emo in my grade and there are 170 sumthing people in my grade. you just try and understand. we do its not always us we get emotional over. i get emotional over god damn books that dont end for crying out loud. i think they dont end until the main characters die. no ones story ends till their gone. thats how i see it. when i hear about people getting hurt i feel like its me. its like a monster grasping at your heart tearing it to bits until you are only left with sadness and bad memories. its like a fight against yourself trying the best you can to control your emotions but sometimes your best just isnt enough
please understand, i know many people dont like emos and its cause they get the wrong idea.
also for KAT she shouldnt have shouted at u but tried to explain but she might have been in a bad mood. everyone has their bad days
just know everyone is different and im not going against what you are saying
im trying to help you see my side
thanks

Added August 9th, 2008 at 7:10 pmhey, you’ve really got a point there! I didn’t like emos before. I guess I was too.. ohh I don’t know.. scared maybe.. yeah too scared too try to understand what emo was.. all I had heard about them were bad things, like they cut themselves, they are sad and want attention, I heard about suicides and stuff.. Then when I heard emo was only a music style I got totally astonished! and I realized it was good music too! You should have seen my face then!
Added August 10th, 2008 at 8:45 amand.. okey.. don’t get me wrong but I don’t care about if some emos cut themselves.. I can understand that you’ve got a real hell out there. and I also understand people getting scared about that.. whatever.. DO NOT BLAME THE MUSIC!
Music doesn’t cut and music doesn’t feel bad. It becomes what we make it so please, stop blaming emo..
Some of you people are so stoooooooooopid.
Added August 11th, 2008 at 9:27 amyour retarded do you know how many people your hating on you fucking bastard you don’t understand any of us some of us don’t have anyone to talk to no one to go ask to for help I secretly cut myself you wanna know why people cut and this is scientifically proven because when you hurt your self your body sends out endorphins to make you feel better you know be happy and the more you cut the deeper you have to go to get those endorphins
have a nice day fucker
Added August 23rd, 2008 at 11:19 amso before you go and be a fucking jack ass think about that and not only do i cut Im suicidal i have been since i was a fucking kid so kiss my ass and one day when someone finds out you posted this pussy ass shit because your to afraid to say it anywhere else but the internet there gonna kick you ass for acting all high and mighty cause really your a wimpy ass little whiney bitch mother fucking wanna be cool person pussy so why dont you go kill your self cause no one wants your wannabe ass k
ok secret pain, if your pain is soo fucking secret, then why are you telling the world you cut and are sucidal. all emos are just out for attention, o my life sucks so bad, please someone feel sorry for me. fuck you, if you gain some self respect for listening to real music that makes sense, and start dressing like a less boy george-esq part of society, then people would like you and stop making fun of you and give you respect, but emos dont deserve respect for the fact that they dont respect themselves enough to suck it up and realize, EVERYONE HAS PROBLEMS, not just you and your 5 little friends who dress exactly like you, so before you go and cry and cut yourself cause noone likes you, you have to realize that your problems are nothing compared to others problems in this world.
Added September 7th, 2008 at 8:29 pmps, kudos to you kittenskill
Added September 7th, 2008 at 8:31 pmwhy so many people hates emo???
Added September 10th, 2008 at 3:15 pm“why so many people hates emo???”
Because I don’t like people that try to be music. (:
Added September 12th, 2008 at 10:50 amthis is so stupid.i think we should just let emos be.seriosly wat did they ever do to you.sure some of them just want attention but there are plenty that actually have problems.but its no reasen to torment people and make them feel worse about themselves.how would you like it if there where pages all over the internet about people who hated you.if you havnt already then you should actually talk to an “emo”.they are actually realy nice people and are pretty cool.heck you might find somebody that likes the stuff you like.
Added September 13th, 2008 at 12:04 pmchu noe every one haz there own opinion but 4 meh i have nothing against emo ppl!
Added September 22nd, 2008 at 12:49 pmdude, just chill..
yeah some ppl should deal with thier own problems and actually do something about it instead of blaming the parentals but still. everyone to their own, i say.

Suicide is really not the answer when your depressed or upset. I think that when you kill yourself that
Added October 14th, 2008 at 5:07 amyou only get stuck in a world that you creat when your alive. and then when its your time to go to heaven then
you finally make it (to where ever you want to go). heaven or hell?? I think that dealing with the issues today is
what we should really being doning. When a person who dressing EMO and walks through the mall or somewhere
there are only preps or prisses or stupid people who dress different…(not emo’s)….i think that everyone
who has not been emo or dress emo think that we cut ourselves and hate our lives…i think that most of us EMO’s
are happy with ourselves…..i know that some poeple think that a HAPPY EMO is a EMO-WANNABE…i don’t think soo….
Some of the things that we have been through or going through seems that no one knows what we are going through. so to deal with it we cut and try different things to try to kill our selves but really we have a home and parents and family that may seem not to like us but really they do and thats why they bring us into this world. we don’t stop to think that there are other people in the world who have nothing and is fighting fro thier lives, trying to stay alive and here we are unhappy with our image or our hair isn’t straight enough. we should really open our eyes cause i know that i have……..thank you for reading this…PEACE out HOME SLICE>……
Added October 14th, 2008 at 5:11 ami think that people hate emo;s sooo flipping much is because we give ourselves an image and slang that no one else can relate to. we dress differently and we put our selves out there like we hate our lives and can’t cope with the world…….now i think that cutting has the biggest impact on our cult cause most people think that we are depressed and sad and want to die blahblahblahblah…….welll we are happy the way we are well some of us and thats what counts…..be proud to be an EMO i know i am… emo 4 love
Added October 14th, 2008 at 5:14 amAs long as you don’t hop into a trendy group, and this new emo wave IS a trend, then you are good people. However, if your folks bought you a car, your from the suburbs, and you chemicals are relatively balanced, you embarass your family, friends, and yourself. The best thing about not giving up on yourself and the world comes when you realize that anyone, anyone can be fucked with. You can balance every injustice with bullies, politicians, religious phonys, meatheads, and barbie dolls. Everything someone else has, others want, and it works both ways. Its absolutely true, I am not a teenager or a fool. Bottom line, be something you love and understand and fuck with anyone the system allows to tread on you in the millions of ways the surely will. My advice, the best way to get to the establishment is to charm your way into their world then shatter it the second you know they took the bait. What I’m saying is 60% of the kids who think their emo are full of shit, I’m not, but I respect it, and I’d be pissed.

Why the labels?
people can be who they WANT to be.
i understand people believe in voicing their opinion but seriously, it’s not needed if your just going to critsize
someone for being what they want to be & doing what they want to do.
your probably some fag that thinks they’re so much better than everyone else.
i’m not an ‘emo’ but i seriously don’t see the problem with people doing & wearing etc, what they want.
grow up & stay in your little box if you have nothing good to say.
Added November 2nd, 2008 at 12:10 amDood.
Seriously.
People are gunna get their asses kicked.
I have had a horrible lief.
You really dun understand “emo kids’z”
Not all of us are freaking horrible.
Only the fakes seek constant attention by telling everyone and I mean EVERYONE that they cut themselves and show them their cuts.
I do not hate people.
I hate the way people treat each other.
and
Once you see an emo kid you immediately think. “oh he cuts himself.”
“Oh I bet he tried committing suicide.”
Please learn how to understand us.
Before you hate us.
Emo is more than music.
and cutting yourself.
Makes the pan go away for a split second.
Making the pain go away.

Added November 2nd, 2008 at 10:40 pmI totally agree with athenz, the way they said how Emo is a way of life, it’s like a drug. That’s the best explanation I think. I don’t want to be the way I am but once you dye your hair and wear the clothes and think the thoughts it’s too hard to go back so you hate yourself more. And you think about all the girls that are happy and all the guys that are awesome and you remember that you could have been one of those people until you took some of that other persons drug and became something else, someONE else, and all the pain that other people hide just comes out of you for the world to see.
Added November 3rd, 2008 at 12:27 amThat’s how I feel.

did we give emo a bad name?
Added November 5th, 2008 at 12:19 amI agree, emo is a type of music. not a type of person. saying your emo doesn’t make you cool. and cutting yourself doesn’t make you emo either. (: if you cut yourself. you’re suisidal. not emo. emo is music, or emoTIONAL, which everyone is emotional.
Added November 5th, 2008 at 4:24 pmStupid idiots.

Emo kids and scene kids. FTW<333
i understand where this is coming from,
Added November 10th, 2008 at 5:25 pmthere isn’t anything wrong with being sad, dressing however, or listening to any kind of music.
its freedom of expression.
but when someday complains about there problems 24/7?
they lose sympathy for when they need it most……
and i’m sick and tired of helping out like, 5 sucidal friends every day.
hmmm…funny…im not really depressed…lol
problem with most “emo kids” is that they have nothing to be “depressed” about..not that they actually have depression…
trust me if u knew some of the problems my m8s have…for example over the last year one of my very good m8s has lost 8/9 of his good mates..(im one of about 5 left of his good mates)…or the other that has health problems, the one that has been diagnosed with depression…and isnt allowed to work most kinds of jobs due ot it..hmm…most “emokids” dont have anything to be depressed about in comparison..and with the exception of the last one these 3 mates arent depressed.
Added November 10th, 2008 at 6:06 pmOk ok, my opinion, not saying its wrong and not syaing its right, but the word emo, just doesnt make sense to me. Everyone has their own opinion on what “emo” is. Some say its music and others say its depressed kids who think they are cool blah blah blah. im not saying that anyones opinion is wrong as everyone has the freedom to express their opinion.
Added November 11th, 2008 at 3:06 ambut your only depressed if you are literally dperessed and go to see a doctor n everything, it doesnt make you emo. If you cut yourself, then it doesnt make you emo. all these things everyone else is the world can do without being emo (w.e emo is to you)
Lately, a stereotypical characteer has been created for emo kids. and i HATE it.
according to people, people who dress in skinny jeans and listen to rock music are emo and slit their wrists and all that shit. witch is not true. ok there are a few people out there who call them selves emo and do all that but not everyone is the same.
People who complain about their life 24/7 are attention seekers, not saying its a bad or good thing as maybe you dont get any attention at home and you need others attention , but it does drive people away from you.
Everyone has problems in life and everyone deals with them in different ways. we shouldnt label ourselves as it only starts riots and is a waste of time. labels is for food. labels are sucky lol.
Apparently i dress emo and apparently i listen to emo music, but i dont call myself emo as i hate labels and cant describe what emo is.
people need to stop steroetyping. you shouldnt do it and shouldnt judje a person beforte you now them just by their appearnece or label.
i believe that, the person you are is created by your experiences in life. you react different ways toawrds things.
I know im emotionaly week, and its not a very good thing. but this happened because of my experiences in life again.
Everyone has their own opinions and sides of the story. neither is wrong or right.
but you shouldnt hate. i try my best not to hate.
be individual and enjoy life, dont follow the croud and just have fun, you all have one life , live it up. dont spend it hating on people.
<3
My opinion o the whole thing is that, why would you be on am emo website, just to be mean to them? I don’t understand that. I personally don’t call myself “Emo” but I have some so-called friends that do call me emo, and I don’t cut myself, it’s just stupid. I have to agree with the person that says we have haters, it’s true. The stereotypical “emo” is a bad bad thing, but I don’t personally think all of the emo people out there are like that. I enjoy life, but I guess you can call me emo. I get depressed sometimes, that’s true. Doesn’t everyone?
Added November 11th, 2008 at 5:57 pmok im sorry to have ta say this but did ya ever think that everyone is fucked up in some way or another?
first off yes you get your steriotypical people that think being an emo means you have to wear all black and be depressed and cut themselves and shit like that….well may i just pointout that although im not emo i have to best mates that are emo and i have to say they are the happiest people ive ever met sure they get low sometimes but hardley ever
did you think that maybe they were just tryna find a footing in society cuz really what is normal these days
theres nothing with people expressing them selves or being emotional and for fuck sakes i complain about concerts i cant go to n shit cuz its something that i want to do but dont other people wine about other thing cuz they cant get them or go ?
so heres my proposal how about everyone just accept people fpr the way they are because the onli reason people put other people down is to feel bigger and if u have to put other people down to make urselves seem better than i have ta say thats pretty sad
Added November 11th, 2008 at 11:37 pmbut yea so everyone chill out n really plz people stop posting stupid i hate emo’s because its kinda pathetic
How judgemental can you be.. if you hate emos.. why the heck are you on here??!!!!!!!!
Added November 17th, 2008 at 6:52 pmyou fucking asshole just because you can’t and never will be able to understand our pain doesn’t mean you can go off on us like that you fucking bitch! and uwishyouwereme is so right! if you hate us so mother fucking much then why in the fucking hell are you on here!!! go get a fucking life you cunt! we only cry because people like you treat us like we’re a piece of shit! we cut to fucking feel something for once because people like you take all our feeling away! people we love break us into pieces! don’t you fucking understand how much that hurts! until you get yourself a fucking clue then go fuck yourself bitch!
Added December 2nd, 2008 at 11:43 amWhen I was thirteen, one of my friends got into the “emo scene.” At first, I thought it was weird, and I didn’t want anything to do with it. My friend kept telling me how special it made people and how it was “real hardcore.” I didn’t see any point to it then. At that time, I guess you could say that I was the typical “good kid.” I didn’t really do anything wrong. I played softball, got good grades, didn’t get into trouble. I was a boring kid, I guess. My friend kept bothering me to get into this emo stuff. She had been my friend for a long time, and we used to share everything. She was like a sister to me, so I gave in and just started hanging out with her and the other emo kids.
When I started hanging out with them, I was still me, and what they were doing seemed to be pretty strange. They would light candles around pictures of BAND NAME DELETED They would talk about how life is so dark, so meaningless, that no one really understood them and that everyone is against them. I just sat there and couldn’t really understand what they were talking about. My life was good. My parents cared, they checked on me, they went on trips with me, and actually talked to me like I was a human being. I knew they loved me!
The more and more that I spent time with them, the more their ideas started to get to me. I started to suspect that anytime that my parents told me that I couldn’t do something that they didn’t care. At least that’s what my new emo friends told me. I started to see things negatively. Even more important, I started to see positive things as negative things. For example, good grades were “selling out.” My thinking was starting to turn negative, and I didn’t even know it at the time. Anytime something went wrong, my new friends were there to tell me that it happened because people didn’t care, that everyone hated me. I started to believe them. It was almost as if they were trying to separate me from my parents and my non-emo friends. They’d tell me that everyone else hated what we were. They said that emo was the only “real” thing, and that everyone else is “fake.” It was like they were changing my reality, though I didn’t know it at the time. I started to think that my parents hated me, and I started to stay away from them.
I started to get more into emo. By then, I didn’t have friends that weren’t emo. I stopped playing sports. I still was getting OK grades, but those eventually dropped too. After all, everything other than emo is “fake”, right? One night, the others came to me and told me that it was time for me to become “true hardcore.” They said to be a “real emo,” you had to “show your pain.” They sat in a circle around me, gave me a razor, and told me that the only way to be a true emo was to cut myself. I had seen the scars on their bodies, I knew they were cutting. I always had thought that it was a sick idea, but I never thought that they’d want me to do it too. I didn’t really want to cut myself then and there, but that made it look like it was a good thing. I was also afraid that if I didn’t cut, they’d reject me and I had already left my other friends. I didn’t want to be alone! The put on BAND NAME DELETED almost a full volume and they just looked at me like I was expected to cut.” I started to cry, but I gave in and cut myself in a place that would be easy to hide (I won’t say where because I don’t want other kids to follow what I did.). After I had done it, the girls in the circle came and hugged me. On one hand, I was horrified about what I had done to myself. On the other, I felt so good to be loved (at least I thought it was love), and the cutting seemed to take the tension out of me. I felt relaxed, and loved.
From there, my life started to go down. I never did school work. My grades went to failing. I had no motivation for anything other than emo music and “the blade you stain.” That’s what we called the things we used to cut. My cutting eventually got to the point that I was doing it about five times a week. It’s hard to explain why cutting is so fascinating. It just is. My therapists and doctors tell me it’s an addiction. I can see why. It really feels good in a way. I know that it seems crazy, but trust me, it does.
As for the lifestyle, I got further and further into emo. I got onto the forums, and I read about the hopelessness, death, and suicide. I read about the cutting, and how to try to hide it. Everything I looked at “proved” what my friends were telling me. The music was big for me too. I won’t get too far into it. I don’t want other kids to get trapped like I was. I will say that BAND NAME DELETED was a big influence for me and my emo friends. We would listen to them all the time. BAND NAME DELETED shirts and hoodies were a major part of our “uniforms.” We would quote the lyrics before we would cut. They were our gods!! We though that we were doing what we were supposed to do. We thought we were following the true religion. We were idiots to do anything just because a band suggested it.
My relationship with my family went bad too. My parents were the same. I had changed. They tried to talk to me, I ignored them. They tried to get me to go do things with them, I rejected them. They kept on reaching out. I kept on turning away. They kept trying to help me and I thought they were trying to take my life away. My emo life, that is. It wasn’t them, it was me. I chose emo over them. I chose to believe the messages on the sites and in the music. BAND NAME DELETED had become my family, my parents were my enemy. That’s the part that I really feel bad about. They have been, and always will be great to me, and I refused to let them help me. I still feel pretty guilty about that. I still remember the look on my father’s face when he found me cutting. He looked like someone stabbed him in his heart. I knew that I was causing other people pain, just not myself.
After that, I tried to kill myself. I remember reading about people that committed suicide on the forums. I thought that it was a way out, and I always liked how there would be “tribute” sites made up for people that committed suicide. It was almost like they were made out to be heroes or something. I’m not going to say what I did. I don’t want others to do the same. I was lucky, my parents found me just in time. I nearly succeeded. I’ve read about how emos think they join the “black parade” when they die. I’ve never heard anyone say that. I (now) think it’s a metaphor. I can understand how some emos would say it though. After all, that’s what MCR said. There were a lot of us that thought that this was what BAND NAME DELETED wanted us to do.
After my suicide attempt, I went to a psychiatric hospital for about three weeks. My parents kept me from anything emo. One of the therapists gave them a link to Dr. Emo’s site. (I heard she hates that name, but I think my father teases her with it.) So they took emo away from me. I hated them for it. I cursed at them, threatened them, and basically made their lives hell. I thought my world was being taken from me. They stood up to me and told me how much they loved me. They said it in their words, and showed it in their actions. As I started to feel better about myself, I started to loose the negative thoughts that emo had given me. I started to think clearly again. I could see the world for what it is, not like some pit of misery. Emo lost its power over me. I had left the cult.
I stopped thinking that BAND NAME DELETED were gods, and I saw them for what they were. They’re a band that makes millions and millions of dollars off of kids like me. They probably live in mansions and fly in private planes. I doubt they have any misery or pain. They have a record company to market them and profit from all the shirts and other merchandise they conned us into buying. Basically, they have an image, and the marketing people build on that! They’re an act with an image, nothing more. All the stories about their lives and what they do in real life are probably written by some marketing company or something like that. In ten years, they’ll be on a VH1 special about has-been bands (that’s my father’s joke. I agree.).
Now, I really am OK. I’m away from emo. I threw out my BAND NAME DELETED stuff. That’s by my own choice. I feel like I’ve lost two years of my life. I can get that back. My scars will heal one day. I can’t wait. When I see them now, I remember how I was tricked into something that is just a marketing ploy.
As for my emo friends, most of them are still emo. They stopped talking to me when I decided to stop. They tried to spread rumors about me, but no one cared. Since the emos has threatened other people that have spoke out, I am in a private school. The friend that got me started in emo is in some kind of residential program. She went to the hospital about five times for cutting and trying suicide, so she was placed. The last I heard, she’s still emo, and still cutting. She’ll probably either get better one day, or die for emo. Lucky for me, emo isn’t worth a moment of my time! It’s definitely not worth my life!
Added December 26th, 2008 at 3:20 pmThis blog is awesome. Period.
Emo is retarded, along with all those other stereotypes. It’s a game that children play while real people are out in the real world working and learning and being productive members of society.
Everyone has problems; money, relationships, family, you name it. A lot of times they come in bunches, but real people deal with their problems and still live their lives.
There’s no reason for all these people to be so depressed and suicidal. There is help available for anyone who needs it, often for free. So, rather than sitting around like a worthless tool, on the brink of hurting yourself (or even worse, someone else), get up, ask someone for help, put on some normal clothes, and realize that the world is not ending and that you’ll be alive tomorrow no matter how depressed you are.
Oh, and get a F%cking job!
Added December 29th, 2008 at 11:28 amI don’t understand why so many people hate emos, and I don’t think anybody likes it when people go online and write stupid pages about how they hate them. Mabey people shouldn’t have such steriotipical views and just exepct people the way they are. You don’t know how bad other peoples lives really are so you, so you can’t tell them to just shut up and get over it.

emos are fucking awsm and have an awsm style so serioulsy dont u come here and diss us
Added March 2nd, 2009 at 10:41 pmi still dont understand the cutting. You cut yourselves to feel better instead of “taking it like a man”. To me it sounds like a pussies way out. It just bothers me deeply. I mean my life isnt perfect by any means but you dont see me crying about it and cutting myself and such.
yes if you cant tell i dont care for emos too much at all.
Added March 3rd, 2009 at 6:33 pmAll of you “emo” kids should be sterilized so that this faggoty music doesn’t get out to the world and people all over the world start whining and cutting yourselves.
Oh yeah and get a haircut stop borrowing your little sisters jeans and go buy a nirvana cd. You emo shitheads just need a hug and someone to set you straight(I mean emo is gay)
Added March 6th, 2009 at 2:04 amSo here it is emo sucks you know it so why ask all these people to stop hurting you and beating you up just quit being emo!
You know what shut the fuck up dude!!

Added March 9th, 2009 at 5:38 pmbitch fuck you just don’t get it if your not on of us or have never bin there you have no right to say anything bitch!
Added March 21st, 2009 at 7:14 pmThis is so retarded. if u hate emos so much dont hang out with them. No one said u had to like us,u just had to respect us like. Unless and emo physically does something to u in a way that it completely changes ur whole life like they gang up on u and beat u down then stop hating on us. U let preps go around showing their tits like the cunt filled whores they are but when u here about a person cutting on their wrists u go crazy! People should judge other people by the way that they act not the way that they dress. ALSO not all emo kids like each other, not all scene kids like each other and not all goth kids like each other. There is an emo bitch at my school and i dont like HER. NOT OUR WHOLE FREAKING STEREOTYPE. ALSO, emo kids that are cussing this guy out and saying he doesn’t know shit,is a waste of ur time. Hes an asshole move on. He has a rite to his own oppion AND if u know that this dude is a dick head, u should have enough mentality in u to ignore this idiot until he gets his facts straight. Ive been talked shit about by a bunch of preppy,girly girls, but does that mean i hate preps? NO! Just certain ones.You cant destroy emos, you cant destroy scene kids, you cant destroy goth kids, and u cant destroy punks. Every emo hater knows so, so they should just back down already and leave us alone. Thats all i have to say.

Added April 19th, 2009 at 2:31 pmahhh thank youuu for writing this!!! its always the emo kids that think theyre all awesome and only hang out with other emo kids as if nobody else would accept them, they push away help when its offered to them and find every little excuse to cry like a pathetic brat. life isnt perfect…nobody has a perfect life. but if every single person in the world started crying like we couldnt do anything to fix things then we wouldnt be taking any steps forward! half the emo kids are posers anyway, they tell people that they have their own style and nobody understands them when theyre just the ones following the rest of the crowd. dumbshits. and i bet millions of emo kids are tearing up looking at this site and thinking that nobody gets them. HELLO. WE GET YOU. TOTALLY. BECAUSE WE DONT WANT TO KNOW HOW SAD YOU ARE INSIDE SO STOP EXPRESSING IT TO EVERYONE WHO DOESNT WANT TO KNOW. you shove emo in everyones faces just to get them to feel bad for you. i dont feel bad. i think its dumb that you think cutting yourself helps you cope with pain, youre the one inflicting the pain on yourselves. i seriously just want to yell in every one of your makeup caked faces….ughh….you can cut yourself and cry like a dumbfuck as much as you want, as long as i dont have to hear it declared to me about how much your life sucks, my life sucks too! everyones does! just because we didnt grow up in some show you saw on tv doesnt mean that its only you who has the problems. emos are selfish, attention hogging fakes!!
Added April 20th, 2009 at 6:56 pmOk first of all not all emos are bad some of them had a really fucked up life and they deal with their pain diffrently and if it works for them than of course they gonna do it but personaly my boyfriend is like that and mean and him have been dating for 5 years when i first dated him that all he do but now that he sees people wnna be there by his side he ahs calmed down alot my sister commited suicide cause my father wouldnt stop tellin her how much he hated her i wuz only 5 then so i couldnt help but for you fuckers that show so much hate i feel sorry for you your just as bad as everyone els and emos are people to they matter we all handle emotions diffrently

EEEWWWWWWWWWWWWW.GET A LIFE!
Added August 18th, 2009 at 8:10 am“emos understand way better than anyone else. they have the gift of feeling pain and sadness”
You’re an idiot. Your only gift is the life that you constantly take for granted. You are worthless. Go get a fucking college degree, goddamn worthless piece-of-shit drain on society.
Emo is the modern embodiment of attention-seeking, self-effacing, graceless egotism.
A few responses to the idiot faggots who defend “emo”
-emo is not from the 80’s
-emo people are, in fact, less valuable than ordinary humans, due to the fact that they spend all their time serving themselves
-you say “You dont know what our lives are like!” Yes we do. Your life is similar to ours. Except you cry about it more because your a goddamn baby.
-get. over. yourself. the level of selfishness in “emo’s” is astonishing. It’s almost a mental disorder.
-Stephanie, no one gives a bald rat’s ass about your novel on your experience with “emo.” No offense. Wait. Nevermind I don’t care, take offense.
-Myheartisbleeding says “you can’t and never will be able to understand our pain.” Okay, then please explain it, you little suburban princess. Your pain stems from the fact that, let me guess, your parents make a lot of money, support you in your total lack of motivation, and you have everything you could ever want. Is that where your pain comes from? Fucking wannabe-victim, attention-seeking nobody.
-If you consider yourself emo, consider this: you are Paris Hilton with darker clothes on. In fact, she’s better than you b/c at least she admits (in her own roundabout way) that she is spoiled and does nothing for her money.
And many people say things like “why do you go out of your way to say you hate something” blah blah … Here’s why:
Most of us have some sort of inherent sense of duty to society. We’ve been dealt a great hand simply by being born in a free nation. We acknowledge that we have a great quality of life compared to most of the world, and because of that, feel a desire or an obligation to give back to society. We want to get educated, get a job, volunteer, be creative, as well as reap the rewards of our opportunities, etc. The idea of “emo” is simply someone in that same situation but with the opposite intentions. Instead of being grateful for your health, your freedom, your opportunities, your material wealth, etc. you constantly complain, seek attention and waste time and money, being a self-absorbed unsatisfiable little twat. You complain b/c you’ve had it SO easy your whole life that you actually find pain in luxury. (the opposite of “happiness in slavery” if you will) The fact that this kind of fad has even risen is a testament to the fastidious, arrogant, over-indulgent attitude that has come to pass in our country. Having it all isn’t enough for you. In fact, nothing would probably be enough for you. You could have millions of dollars and you’d still be a selfish, ungrateful bane… THAT is why people go out of their way to tell “emo kids” (i hate even typing that phrase) to fuck themselves.
If you’re emo, the idea that “no one loves you” is a self-fulfilling prophecy. You’re right, no one does love you. And it’s because, ironically, you just spend all your time crying about how no one loves you… don’t cut your arms, stab yourself in the heart. repeatedly. It’s better for everyone
Added August 21st, 2009 at 1:18 pmIt’s hilarious how all you emos are trying to say you’re not emo but still admit you cut yourselves and do everything that makes an emo an emo. So stop fucking baaaaaaaaawing and go kill yourselves, you’d be doing the world a favor. No wait, how bout this. You emo faggots go join the fucking army and get shipped to Iraq or some warzone, then your deaths might actually mean something.
Added September 17th, 2009 at 4:58 amwhat the hell?!?! your not EMO!! us emo people have feelings too!! you should’nt judge us because of they way we are!! just because were emo!! DONT JUDGE US!!!! AND I SPEAK FOR ALL EMOS AROUND THE WORLD!!! and most of us DONT cut ourselfs!!! SO YOU CANT SAY ANYTHING!! STOP JUDGING US FOR WHO WE ARE!!!
Added September 18th, 2009 at 4:28 pmnowadays, if youre too emotional in your music or in a statement or whatever, people will call you emo. THATS what pisses me off about the stereotype, i couldnt give a shit if youre emo or not, i wont want to beat you up unless you actually mess with me personally.
Added September 21st, 2009 at 2:54 pmi feel like in most peoples’ egotism-fearing goal to be empathic towards others and towards the human race in general, their thought processes’ outcome usually ends up with being frustrated when people dont use what they have, and feeling the impulse to hurt or humiliate those they might see as sick/deranged/idiotic/detrimental towards society.
i dont affiliate with emo, and i try not to take my life for granted. but in my own artwork and music, im gonna blast out as much hatred and sorrow as i fucking want to. its self-enlightening and has a particular kind of beauty. if youve never tried it because you arent creative enough, dont have the balls to, etc, youre too limited by cultural taboos. society’s keeping you down, maaan. fuck society.
in my view, as long as youre not a PUSSY, its perfectly ok to use whatever built up frustration you have inside of you to create something good out of it. this is a POSITIVE concept.
Added September 21st, 2009 at 3:17 pmand you know why emo kids have a “right” (as if any effect needed justification for existing in the form of its background/cause) to complain? maybe theyve been so sheltered, that they never learned how to deal with life, or do anything. life gives them more pain than theyve ever experienced, and they dont have any idea of how to deal with it besides cry for help, since thats always worked for them. you cant possibly put your own experiences in the context of someone worse off living in a 3rd world country, theoretical relativity doesnt have that kind of power unless you yourself experience it.
if you yourself are part of the fucking asshole who feels entitled to pass judgement onto fellow humans-population, go do what you may, beat the shit out of ‘emo kids’, get them conditioned. when theyre able to beat the shit out of you, theyll feel significant and no longer worthless or powerless.
Added September 24th, 2009 at 9:12 pmUMMMM… Im getting sick of everyone thinking Im a bad person just because I dont dress like them or watever and whoever wrote this needs to SHUT THE FUCK UP because your being a hypocrite the whole time you wrote this youwere whinning……. get a life and quit ruining the lives of others that have bigger problems than you…… oh and …..GO EMOS
Added September 26th, 2009 at 10:28 amlive for yourself. fuck everybody. (enter whatever philosophy’s motivational slogan applies, here !)
having said ‘fuck everybody’, what i actually believe underneath the basic extreme statement is take whatever you obtain from observing everyone else around you, but if/when internalizing, dont let it consume you entirely
Added September 26th, 2009 at 2:30 pmlove emos cause im a !!EMO!!
Added October 3rd, 2009 at 12:38 amDONT EVER FUCK WITH EMOS, cause WE WILL fuck you up
Added October 3rd, 2009 at 12:40 amI feel the same way. I fucking hate emos and their whining. they would cry over stupid crap like a popped balloon or a spilled milk. like literally.
Added October 16th, 2009 at 8:21 pmHey I get what she’s saying shes not saying she hates Emos in the sense she hates everyone who is Emo shes saying she hates the streotype and so do I. I get called emo but i’m not. I don’t cut and I don’t listen to emo music really. I agree with her as well. What she says I completely agree with. I get people needing help and complaining. I complain to my friends but not to the extent that it makes them hate me. I’ve got friends who do complain about their problems that aren’t really that important and friends who constantly tell me they are going to commit suicide and mostly it just annoys me because they aren’t actually depressed or suicidal but they want attention or to fit into the sterotype. I’m me and I don’t try to be anyone else or fit into a streotype. I’ve got friends that do and it annoys me that they wont just be themselves. But I also hate emo haters. You shouldn’t hate people because the streotype says they do certain stuff and whine all the time and cut themselves or whatever. Fair enough hating someone once you’ve gotten to know them or whatever but i think that you should be yourself and not try to fit in just be you.
Added November 4th, 2009 at 8:06 amok my dad has had cancer 2 times a stroke and he can walk…… now i have gone though all that and i dont go off and dress in black and wear heapz of makeup and write shitty poems, but no these “emos” ( i call them attension seekers) cy if someone breaks up with them ….then they go and make out its the end of the world …well grow up and get ova it …..and if you want to be indervidual then your not doing a very good job everyone looks the same now BLACK HAIR, SKIINY JEANS , DESPRESSING LOOKS ON THEIR FACE…….REALY INDERVIDUAL
