Well, say something at the begin of you post to say you know its going to be dickish, and that the readers should be warned, then they can't flame you without being retards.
Also, I know Emo is not Emotional, I use it alot around my friends, particularly a few who are extremely prejudice against "Emo's". Between them and a bunch of other idiots, its easier to use something like that to shut up most people, and I mean the ones who are far to stupid to talk to. The ones who would understand, I would put in the effort to work with. Force of habit from them using it, and me using it. Long story to justify it, and I don't want to write starting early grade 9 for me. (2 years ago)

Hmm. Well I may try to soften it a little.
So let's see.
"Why does the world hate emos?"
This question is very easily answered: because the majority of them are attention whores.
*Note* "Majority" I didn't say all. I've known people who identify themselves with the "emo" culture and they aren't attention whores. But for the most part they are.
And NO ONE likes an attention whore. Lie to yourself all you want to make them feel better about themselves, but you know it's true.
Plus they are pretty much ALL the same.
I shall now recite to you the Recipe for Emo, ahem:
1. hair dyed black and cut into a very choppy do that's traditionally styled to the max (teased, moussed, geled) 2. tight thrift shop shirts that came from the kiddie section and say stupid things like "I learned to read at Bellview Elementary School" 3. Boys - girl pants. Girls - pretty much any pair of jeans 4. Chuck Taylors - now in any colour! But you should run over them with your bike a bit first, to make sure they don't look new. you have to look like you've been in the scene for a while. Oh and try wearing two different colours at the same time. be sure to doodle all over them as well. 5. Don't forget the signature black rimmed glasses. 6. Gauge your ears 7. snake bites too. 8. don't forget a nautical star tattoo. 9. lots of black eyeliner and black nail polish - for both sexes. 10. tons of stupid armbands 11. And any picture you post online, make sure it's from some ridiculous angle and always looking "mysterious"
(I wrote that myself by the way - I could be an emo chef)
That's the gist of it. They all think they are so original too. I don't think the site exists anymore, but there was a site called artfags.org. Basically it had gobs upon gobs upon gobs of pictures of emo kids who all think they are being original with their style and you look at these pictures and they ALL LOOK THE SAME! It's so funny.
Another reason people hate emos is that the music they listen to SUCKS!
Okay, I have three emo bands under my belt: Bright Eyes, Cursive, and The GetUp Kids. I listened to them way back before this emo explosion. And back when bands associated with this genre had talent.
The bands now - Hawthorne Heights, Yellowcard, Taking Back Sunday, Panic! At the Disco, Fall Out Boy, and all these other whiney b***h bands with their talentless instrumentals make me sick (and everyone else who hates emos). They all sound the same.
Oh, my favourite is Hawthorne Heights though. The singer. Gosh he sucks at life. He can't even play the guitar. And the guy who does their screaming? What is that? That's terrible! He's not even saying anything!
Okay enough on that rant.
The point is, they are attention whores who all look the same, but think they are original, and listen to crap for music.
I'll leave you with this link:
It says it all

Haha, I love the song on the sight, I have it on my computer and a few burnt C.D.s. Most of those things are pretty much what the 'Emo's' I know look like. Though they usually do highlights in their hair that are purple, blue, pink, or a combination. The 'Emo's' I know are usually bi-polar, but thankfully not attention greedy(the ones I like atleast) I do like the fashion, oddly. Yes, Hawthorn heights makes the 'Emo' scene... well Hawthorn heights is a pretty sad thing all by itself.
Ok, now think about it, 'Punk' was a debunking trend or somesuch in the 80's. But it became somewhat popular and it was 'cool' to be 'Punk'. At which point 'Goth' was becoming the new 'Punk', asin debunking, but it was also just a style of life. Now with 'Emo', its just about the genre of music, AND being emotional (for the new 'Emo's' who don't know what its about), (flame if you will, but you can't say its not part of the trend) the thing is punks were considered bad people, still kinda are, but their usually pretty cool, especially the true ones, and also the ones that are just being different. Goth went through its pursicution and trendy stages aswell. (still kinda is)
Emo is the new alternative 'thing' it will be judged and ridiculed, and considered the new 'it' thing for some time, then in a decade, something new with take its place. Howmany people still try to insult Punks, a hell of a lot less then those against 'Emo's'. Goths have definatly been pursicuted less and less (though still a fair bit) over the last few years. As long as no more Hawthorn Heights things happen, a few years from now, the wannabes will fade out and it will be respected as a subculture, and the new thing will be 'against the world'

I dislike emos, I don't know why. Mainly because it seems like a bunch of spoiled preppy kids don't get enough attention so they go to Hot Topic, buy out the store, and when that's not enough, they cut themselves. I ******** hate people that cut themselves, I'm sorry. It's just stupid. And their music is annoying. Ok, there are a few "emo" bands with one or two alright songs, but mostly to me they all sound the same. No creativity, no nothing, just.."Oh poor me, school sucks, my parents grounded me..wah.." It's like grow the ******** up you thirteen year old. Sorry. That was my rant first thing in the morning.
