This reminds me of the Mexican emo riots. Hi-larious.

terriblecanyons · 08.07.2008, 02:50 AM

For once, Russia got something right.

The end is near...

greedrex · 08.07.2008, 02:55 AM

don't go round calling people emo on this board, i'm tellin you.
avoid the topic at all costs

terriblecanyons · 08.07.2008, 02:56 AM

...
I'm not even gonna reply to that.

SuperCreep · 08.07.2008, 05:24 AM

I...don't see the threat. It's a dying trend anyway.

atsonicpark · 08.07.2008, 05:32 AM

Yeah, what's emo? Isn't that Sunny Day Real Estate? Good shit.

Derek · 08.07.2008, 05:34 AM

emo music rules

and not the type of music that everyone thinks when they hear emo!

Fuck off, bigot. I hope a big black dude rapes your ass some day.

Everyone else - for a "democracy", Russia's sure doing a fine job of acting like a de-facto intolerant dictatorship. People should be allowed the right to be emo, gay, oddball etc etc, regardless. Laughing at emos is all very well, but when a defenceless goth girl in England is murdered for BEING a goth, then it's time to stand up for what you and others believe in.

Sunny Day Real Estate, Cap'n Jazz, At The Drive-In etc.

All fantastic.

atsonicpark · 08.07.2008, 07:07 AM

Oh yeah, and Rites of Spring! Yeah, emo rules!

All that stuff that evolved from emo ("screamo" I guess or "post-emo" or whatever) like Orchid were awesome too.

Fuck yeah, <3 emo!

ZEROpumpkins · 08.07.2008, 07:11 AM

Can't find any ROS CD's here, oddly enough.

demonrail666 · 08.07.2008, 09:02 AM

Emos are easily mocked but in the big scheme of social menaces they hardly figure that highly. I have an emo couple as neighbours, and they're extremely nice. Certainly more pleasant than other neighbours I've had in the past.

I agree with Melly's point above that, when you hear about basically decent people being kicked to death simply because of the way they dress, we should be supporting a sub-culture that is certainly more open-minded than a culture that literally seems to want to see them dead.

atsonicpark · 08.07.2008, 09:04 AM

Yeah, sure, sure.

They still look awfully silly though.

demonrail666 · 08.07.2008, 09:09 AM

I have a sneaking feeling that a number of the people here that have the biggest problem with Emos, aren't that far removed from them themselves.

And yes, some of them do look rather silly. But then again, a lot of them look fairly brilliant to my eyes as well:

atsonicpark · 08.07.2008, 09:10 AM

I don't have a problem with them at all, I just think they embarass themselves. Then again, I'm sure we all somewhat embarassed ourselves fashionably at 14-years-old.

I do think girls typically get the better end of the stick and most of them tend to look pretty nice. Guys, though, look really really silly.

Doesn't bother me, and I say all this in good humor. I never really understood the point of "fashion" or anything and I've never identified with a scene so I guess maybe I don't understand.

demonrail666 · 08.07.2008, 09:14 AM

Fair enough. I tend to get a little defensive about this. I work at a university where there are lots of emo types, and I can honestly say that if I only had to deal with their issues, my day's work would be a helluva lot easier than it is. People should take a closer look around them, at the scumbags that dominate wherever it is they live before picking on emos, or whatever it is they're called these days.

MellySingsDoom · 08.07.2008, 09:17 AM

You should see some of the feral kids that hang around near Melly Towers. I'd FAR rather have Emo Kids in my neighbours than these useless fuckwitted cunts. Also, at least Emo Kids don't go around dealing drugs literally on my doorstep!

EDIT - Agree w/demonrail on the point of bullying - "Ooh, it's OK for us to pick on emos, 'cos we're so kewl and not goths at all, and we can take out our inadequacies on them, bro.". For those who think like this - Fuck You.

atsonicpark · 08.07.2008, 09:19 AM

???

In my experience, "emo kids" are no better or worse than anyone else. They just look sillier.

Though they can dress however they want... and Russia is sillier than they are as evidence by this news article.

MellySingsDoom · 08.07.2008, 09:20 AM

^^^As silly as a white kid try to dress like a black guy? Hmmm.....
