what most people actually don't know unless they did their research correctly, emo actually stands for emo-tive hardcore, a type of music that is linked to the whole punk thing that started WAY back (well, way back for me).

So...uh..yeah

They couldnt have taken more the piss out of emo more if they tried.
I dont know about anyone else but that is by far the funniest thing I have read tonight, its actually quite astonishing about the amount of gullibility there is in todays mainstream news.

Well, joy of joys, I have discovered yet more bad press (and completely incorrect at that) for the goth and emo subcultures in a scouring of the net for essay research.

Just what we need, more bad press

This comes from the conservative (think republican only British and twice as pompous) newspaper "the Daily Mail", in it the author gets almost every "fact" about goth and emo so wrong it becomes a farce. However, while this may amuse, the fact that some readers of this paper will read this as genuine fact, disturbs me. With things like this circulating around it's no wonder that it is near impossible for anyone with a more than "normal" penchant for black to get a job, being rejected just on appearance alone, because we are being given the title of being chronicly depressive loners. stare

(any one else think that the girl they have in the picture doesn't have nearly enough eye-liner on than she should to be emo?)

yeah it is hard for goths to get a job, and she doesnt have that much eye liner on. I've seen preps wear more makeup, and she's hot. (excuse my rudeness.)
