I hate whiners. But that doesn't mean I hate emos. There are a lot of different types of emos. Some just dig the look (not my style except for the black, but I do think it looks quite nice sometimes) and part of the subculture.

Just because a lot of annoying people think it's cool to be emo, doesn't make being an emo bad. I know some emos (know more goths though) and none of them are annoying or anything. In fact, I'm more pissed off by people's reactions on them. Emos can look quite cool, but every non-emo seems to have to stare at them for as long as possibly like they are from outer space or something. How about accepting some people are not like you?

Satanic? For being emo? That doesn't make much sense.
I don't worship the devil (well, kind of), but I don't really believe in god that much. I'm Agnostic. My friend is an emo, and she doesn't cut herself. As for me, I'm goth.
No, satanic for having a Triforce on my hand.  ::)
I am agnostic. I sometimes think of a single god, sometimes of no god, and sometimes of Farore

because everyone knows that the Devil's symbol is the Triforce.

Nope, that's actually the pentagram, which could be mistaken for a triforce with all the triangles. A pentagram looks like a star within a pentagon.

Maybe I should have put [/sarcasm] at the end of that...

Hm... this turned to a matter of religion, I think. xD Which is funny, the emo stereotype has nothing to do with religion, that I know of.

There's like... two emo kids at my school. We're all going through the phase of being gangsta'. Except me and those emos, of course.

alex

maybe this is me, but...

do you ever think emo people want to be black?
i mean, thats all they wear...

i dunno, it just kinda hit me one day.

DW

......no, I don't think they wish they were black.....white people who want to be black are called wiggas. They usually try to talk with slang and do actions that are often associated with black people.

I agree. Not all emo's a whiners, and I must confess, I don't like whiners either. And I'm with you on acceptance. I don't like certain groups like the pimps, and the preps, but I accept them for who they are.

DO NOT get me started, they annoy me maybe 100 times more than any emo person would.

XD They annoy me to death, very much so. They act like they grew up in the ghettos, and... well, I wasn't aware we HAD ghettos here. It's also slightly amusing that the few black kids at our school don't act "gangsta" at all.

DW

It's the media and their stereotypes that make people see them this way...funny....while they throw fits about having to read Huck Finn because they say it's racist, they are letting the media convince them that all blacks wear bling and talk gangsta talk.....

I practically live in a ghetto... Well, a county that's basically one big ghetto. See, this county is about 50% black, poverty is pretty big and so is the crime rate, even though it's only a population of over 25000.

Bah, it's troubling just to use the bathroom because people will always be hanging around in there and smoking or just talking... and I REALLY don't wanna get in a fight with them...

MasterKeyX

I can't say I know what it's like to live like that, but my heart goes out to you.

And this is a reason why "wiggas" annoy me... they have this idea living in the ghetto is cool. It's not cool. It's scary and a tough, tough time.

Well, not a true ghetto... I don't live in town after all... But I DO Know that the towns, especially wadesboro are in pretty bad shape... lots of coke.
