On some poor excuse for journalism they go on about how "evil" emo is and they continually reinforce it by pointing out whether people involved in a story are "emo" kids or not. A while ago, they had what "signs" of being emo are:

* Spending a lot of time alone

* Owning a MySpace or LiveJournal account (I thought MySpace = 16 year old camwhores who're usually mainstreamers)

* Not eating proper meals/having an eating disorder (Again, anorexia is found in my high school in the mainstreamers more)

* Acting depressed

* Listening to "shock" groups/musicians such as My Chemical Romance or Marilyn Manson

* Wearing the color black (What?)

* Wearing a lot makeup
What the Hell? Half of these are so broad they could apply to anyone.

OH SHIT we're all emo!

TL;DR: I saw a UFO but nobody believes me.

The worst part about this is because it was on TV.

Fox News is still the worst though.

Then there's the fact that the godawful excuse for a news coverage makes it seem that emo is a mental disease. Of course, they have to include the BAAAAAWWW cutting. BECAUSE EVERYONE WHO WEARS BLACK CUTS.

* Spending a lot of time alone
I spend alot of time alone. I prefer this because all the people at my school are "gangsta" or a slut. I eventually developed this into my personality as self defence.

* Owning a MySpace or LiveJournal account (I thought MySpace = 16 year old camwhores who're usually mainstreamers)
I laugh at MySpace. Everybody has a MySpace. That is why I detest it.

* Not eating proper meals/having an eating disorder (Again, anorexia is found in my high school in the mainstreamers more)
I eat alot. I eat good food, too. And I don't vomit it back up on a regular basis.

* Acting depressed.
I may be anti-optimistic, but I'm also anti-pessimistic.

* Listening to "shock" groups/musicians such as My Chemical Romance or Marilyn Manson
Techno is for me. Also videogame music. Also, I usually don't listen to music with lyrics.

* Wearing the color black (What?)
I like darker colors because light colors symbolyze optimism to me. I would rather be around a pessimist than an optimist.

* Wearing a lot makeup
What the Hell? Half of these are so broad they could apply to anyone.
I don't wear makeup at all.

OH SHIT we're all emo!
Says these people. >.>

TL;DR: I saw a UFO but nobody believes me.
I didn't see any.

Spending a lot of time alone


I do enjoy the company of my illustrous self. But it's not like I'm alone all the time.

Quote:
Owning a MySpace or LiveJournal account


Don't have one of those, but that's a fairly broad scope.

Quote:
Not eating proper meals/having an eating disorder


I never skip a meal, unless I'm just really busy. A rare occurence indeed.

Quote:
Acting depressed


What? I'm a usually happy guy, but everyone has the blues every now and then.

Quote:
Listening to "shock" groups/musicians such as My Chemical Romance or Marilyn Manson


I usually listen to soundtracks from videogames and anime. I also enjoy smooth jazz.

Quote:
Wearing the color black


Uuhh... sometimes?

Quote:
Wearing a lot makeup


I think makeup, like, totally clashes with my hairy face.




Yeah, these are extremely broad qualities that just about anyone call fall under. Once again showing how poor a grasp the mainstream media has on this generation.
