I know I'm old, and it just makes me feel older knowing that I have to ask this, but, what's wrong with Emo kids? Like why does everyone hate them so much? I mean, they look lame, and I would whoop the shit out of my kids if they ever dressed like that, but really aren't they harmless? This is an honest question. I don't know any Emos, presumably thankfully, so I'm kind of curious.
Still, that's a pretty funny article lol.

That think it´s kind of a social problem here in Mexico right now.
There was like a National call to beat Emo kids en the cities, because they are taking public places as base, and people are getting pissed off of that, i really dont know why.
But what really pisses me off is that a lot of people and the media are taking these as Metalhead are beating emo kids, and it doesn´t, you can read in news paper´s "Groups of Metalheads together to beat up emo kids" that´s just suck, because here in Mexico, metalheads have really bad image and this just get things worse.
The people that are doing this beatings are nothing but metalheads, are just ignorant people that doesn´t have anything more to do, or just people who like to revolt, gangs, pseudo-metalheads, pseudo-punks, and all that.
I hate emos too, they imagery, they philosophy of "everything sucks, i hate life, i want to kill myself, nobody loves me, i wanna look like a skinny girl", but i believe in free speech too so they have the right to be wherever they want.
However i think this is just a fashion (the emo stuff) that just going to die with the time as the majority of trends, so there is no need of an extermination.

Spend 5 minutes in a Hot Topic. You'll begin to understand...
And if that doesn't work, come to the midwest. THEY'RE EVERYWHERE!!!
I personally can't stand them because IME the majority are psuedo-intellectual arrogant cocksuckers who love being sarcastic, condescending, and just generally unpleasant - so many people cast the stereotype that they're a bunch of weenies who listen to moaning whining music about personal issues, but what these people fail to mention is how poisonous in nature so many of them can be (there's tons at my college, and so many just have such a fucking attitude problem - and what the hell is up with them now wearing flat-brimmed hats like ghetto assholes?)

emo chicks may share the same shitty attitude and bad taste for music,
but since they're already bored, pissed off rich kids that are angry at mommy and daddy, they put out easily and they let you do ANYTHING

Thats just how it is...
I just hate retarded trends... no matter how blown out or proportion it gets. I hate bandwagons in any sense... in sports, in music, in movies... I hate the "everybody else is doing it" mentality that made:
Harry Potter
Lord of the Rings
Halo
Guitar Hero
Emo
All the kids quoting Chapelle and Borat with "WHAT?!" and "great success!" all the fucking time.
etc etc etc.
Basically, I long for the time when sleeved up tatt'd freaks were more likely to whoop your ass than blow you.

Fucking right on.
Not only do I live in Nebraska, but I live in a college town.
I HEAR THIS SHIT CONSTANTLY!
Fucking Emo kids are everywhere and they ruin a lot of shit for us metal heads. Metal bands don't get booked here. The only live bands we get are the high school rejects with their pink Marshall cabs and 19 year old fat kids wearing capri pants. The music is absolute shit, but since emo's are pissed off rich kids, they have plenty of mom and dad's $$$. The only thing the clubs here think about: $$$

He whom thou art not
Word... I'm not even gonna start on Hot Topic cause the last thread I started on that is still going some months later.
Anyway, last year my 16 year old cousin, a big doofy looking guy was wearing huge, baggy, black jeans with 90 fukn zippers and bright green stripes, black nail polish, a black Marilyn Manson shirt, a black trench and some wierd-ass spandex things that looped around the middle finger and went up his forearms like a damn legwarmer from the 80's. Top that off with a dirty looking non-haircut and Black Army boots.
Now the rant begins...
-1 In my day <ANY> spandex automatically meant you were a glam poser or the like. His were like the spiked armbands slayer used to wear except his were spandex and sans spikes. They lended a rather feminine quality to the wearer.
-2 Trench coat. Between 'The Matrix' and them Columbine kids I would say the look is pretty much worn out AND tasteless at this point.
-3 The pants... Not practical in anyway, not revealing in any way ( as one MIGHT attribute to a method of attracting the opposite sex ) more zippers and neon green stripes than a Nuclear Tiger Gucci bag and baggier than MC Hammers ole parachute pants.
-4 Black Army Boots. Get your own shit man. Retro angst? C'mon...
-5 Black nail polish. It wasn't even cool in the 80's neither were parachute pants, Reebok Pump shoes, Rick Astley, me. Shitty 80's stuff didn't just turn into 'Cool Retro 80's' stuff. Things that sucked in the past generally don't become great in the future.
-6 Around here the older metalheads generally refer to these kids as Liza Manellis' as they sport the same short, dark, wind-blasted hair gel'd to oblivion.
Total Gheynus = -21
As for the Marilyn Manson shirt, I'm old now and when I was young everyone older than me thought Slayer and Metallica were pretty damned ridiculous so maybe I'm just seeing the other side of the picture so I'll let that slide. I still don't like it though but I know bad taste isn't something you can correct in a teenager.
The thing that gets me most is these kids bitching about how hard shit is. No shit. Life's hard. My son is 4. The first time he cries about not having a cellphone when he's a teenager I'm gonna pimp slap his ass. Compared to what every generation before us has gone through, I'd say shit's pretty damn easy, just a lot more complicated and that's our own fault cause we made it like that.
This cousin of mine further fueled my distaste for the ilk by making several completely ignorant comments that contradicted many known facts, my uncles 40 years in construction and site engineering, statements that at the time you could copy songs off an iPod with iTunes, saying bands like Deftones are some of the most talented musicians around and many other things that one could have only made up after overhearing part of a conversation between 2 autistic kids with downs syndrome. And my cousin is the smart one in his group of friends.
All I'm sayin is, I see a long bleak future for him with a big-ass key ring and a dirty jump-suit working late hours.
