The EMO culture.

Here's a little something I read about EMOs one day : A person described as "emo" (falling under certain behavior mannerisms and attire correlating with the subculture) will often be from a comfortable, middle-class background with understanding, pleasant parents. All of this is irrelevant to an emo who will consider themselves misunderstood and repressed regardless of reality.

The emo girls just want to get a new hairstyle and the guys, an excuse to behave like girls.

I personally believe that EMOs are nothing more than wannabe punk rock fans who have been unfortunately, given cell phones and love to take their pictures from different angles (My condolences to the respective necks), most popular location - their bathrooms with the view of the commode in the back, to put them up on Facebook, Orkut, Myspace etc. Very lame.

Some of them pretend to have stemmed from goth culture but I personally hold the opinion that they have more in common with the next door bisexual guy having candy floss than goth.

Let us now look at the basic demeanor of EMOs:
1. They all have dark eye make-up, more of an out of GRUDGE auditions look.
2. They all seem to have an "one- eye haircut" which THEY think creates an illusion of them having only one eye. Maybe because they only want one side of their face showing.
3. They tend to wear extremely tight clothes which makes it difficult to determine whether it's a male or a female from distance.
4. Smiles are non existing and random hand gestures look plain stupid.

These emos on a general day are absolutely normal people who will hang out with friends and have a good time. I think the absurd and bizzarre behavior sets in once they find a camera. Or you can find the hardcore emos in some lonely deserted corner of the street trying to get attention by putting on an 'I don't give a shit' (I see the irony, yes) expression since well, nobody seems to "understand them". They talk to animals and make them too sad to breathe.
