    lads NU RAVE is the new thing, i expect a nu rave topic by 2009.
    started off with rockers--> skaters ---> emo ---> Indie ---> nurave

    although indie did exist back from day one but it was ugly indie, like people wearing chordy flares, its tightened up since. Goths up there some where too.
    accurate timeline of ireland.

    oh my god leave emos be.... that just like saying look at the scumbags that walk aroung grafton street with there trackies tucked into there scoks and go around listing to dance, i say fair play to them cause if they want to do that THEN do it!! if people want to be EMO leave them!!

    i live by the rule: if you want to do something do it, dont do it just cause you friends do it or its in fashion, do it for you and nobody else! ---- in saying that if half the emos out there done this then i dont think they wouldnt be much around!!
    Oh, we pick on the Scumbags too.
    They're probably the most talked about.

    Anyway, watch this video.

    hmmm, maybe I just didn't understand the question or statement from Baz...

    ...what do you mean by 'it'?

    ah, back to emo burds....



    I don't find either of them HOT, 2nd one is decent, also don't like the ridiculous pouting face of the first one, or the deer in the headlights look of the second.

    Their facial expressions make them both look more like lolcats to me...

    maybe that's the future of the internet..... emokid pics with lolcat speech on them?

    I give you

    i thought most people were owed an education, food, a roof/bed/shelter and clothes ... it just depends how much of this stuff you think you are owed .. emo's don't strike me as being particularly greedy

    Eh, you're not owed anything.

    Your parents have to bring you up, but that's it.

    The world owes you nothing. You take personal responsibility for yourself and earn your quality of life.

    I don't really mind them, some of the women are rather good looking. As long as they're not big depressed people(Surely some of them have to be happy?) then I don't mind.

    All I'll say is, I'd rather see people dressed like "Emo's" than floating about Town in Lacoste tracksuits :eek:

    this topic ridiculous, the prime origination of music genre "emo" has nothing to do with the "scene" that spread 2 years late in dublin, alot of these "emo" people do not listen to proper "emotional genre" anyway, its just the look, they like it, they copy it, same way rockers were everywhere a year or so ago.

    AFAICT
    emo = New Romantic Goths
    ...........................................(well the genes had to go somewhere)

    Also better fed, higher metal content but low rbc

    Dont suppose they are particularly more annoying than say
    teddys, beatniks, mods, rockers, skins, hippies, glams, punks, new agers, new romantics, goths, death metallers, industrial, indies, grungers, britpoppers, neo, metalcorers, nuravers or anything else WASP teenagers have spent their time on since the last war when teenagers were invented (1941) and they had enough money to buy their own clothes.


    12 pages of high emo coliform assay and not a single word from the man himself:(

    Oh I agree, fair play to the scum. And if they want to steal from shops and mug some old woman of her possessions then they deserve even more credit for expressing themselves.

    Seriously though, however you dress yourself is your own business but I think its a BIT sad that anyone would actually want to live up to a stereotype. And I'm not alone in he opinion either.

    Metal-fans tearing into emos amuses me no end. Yes! you! young fourteen year old boy-you look ridiculous, and your music is awful-typically said by a person in their early thirties with long hair and an iron maiden t-shirt ;)

    No problem with long hair and iron maiden, but it's a case of the pot calling the kettle black.
