I would like to clarify that I intend only to make fun of the stupid 'dyed hair-high pitched band loving-tight pants wearing-conformist' emo types (depression is a serious thing and I respect that) Q. What do you call 100 emos at the bottom of the ocean? A. A good start! Q. How do you keep an emo occupied? A. Give them a dashboard confessional cd and a pair of safety scissors. Q. How many emos does it take to microwave a burrito? A. Four.... One to cry about it on Livejournal. One to make a Myspace about it. One to take a picture of them taking a picture of themselves in a mirror and post it on Livejournal and Myspace. The other to make the burrito.
I noticed all the bickering on this thread and want to share my opinion about it.... Arguing online is like the special Olympics... even if you win, you are still retarded.
What is black and red and dances? A load of goths dancing around a statue covered in chickens blood. Why are goths eco friendly? They don't need electricity. Just candles. Why are Emus so sad? Marilyn manson laughed at their suggestion that they were really goths. What is a Goths favourite artist? The Shadows.
XD crapped myself a little and dude...its a joke thread. if your emo go whine on myspace or something. if your an emo hater do society a favour and volounteer for "assisted suicide"
The only thing I'm depressed about is that we don't just let survival of the fittest take its course. Emo wouldn't exist if they had the balls to finish the job and we let 'em. All in favor of people weeding their own depressed selves out of the gene pool?
seriously now..since when are goths and emos on the same page? there's a huuuuge difference between them.. and about emos..they aren't depressive people..they just want attention..depressed people who consider their selfes emos are not emos..they just have mental issues.. lots of problems in life to be more exact..which makes them just give everything up.. emo jokes? they're funny..just like any joke... no sens in getting mad about them..
first of all if you are going to argue the point of it being free will or an actual mental illness you should do some research to ensure you know what you are talking about http://www.cyc-net.org/reference/refs-self-mutilation-green.html just a little info on the subject...and for the record...just because someone is depressed or hurts themselves it does not mean they are emo / goth goth is a lifestyle a frame of mind...unfortunantly that makes it easy for those of us out there that have the disease to easily fall into that particular crowd..it means acceptance...and gives us a sense of community...however it also does not do anything to help with the disease and in fact can make matters worse...if "normal" people would stop and think about what another might feel, some of us might be more likely to seek help in a possitive manner....i mean seriously how hard is it to stop and try to see things from anothers point of view...all you have to do is listen...ten minutes out of your day can actually save someones life
i dont wanna start a big debate or anything, and i dont wanna get slammed for this, but i dont see how "self-injury" or "self-mutilation" is a disease. when i think of disease, i think of cancer, not someone cutting themselves. its not like u are gunna be talking to a friend and out of nowhere "hey, u see that guy there... he has a disease" "oh yeah? what is it?" "he likes to cut himself" but seriously, what do i know? im not a doctor. i cant go around making up a disease. "miss, oh miss! id like you to know, u put on too much make-up! i think you have a disease." my honest and completely unprofessional opinion is its just a fetish. masocists. nothing more.
well, my thoughts on this tho... why is EVERYTHING now-a-days a disease? you never heard about this stuff twenty years ago or anything. now people either start doing it a lot, or just get caught more than they did years ago, and BOOM, they have a fucking disease? Every little thing that society doesnt look greatly on is either a disease, or the person is dubbed with a mental illness. so what? so someone likes pain? why is that sooo fucked up? why do they all of the sudden have a fucking disease, or why are they suddenly mentally fucked up? anyone can walk up so you and say hi. they are normal. then they admit to liking pain and OH MY GOD, THEY HAVE A DISEASE.
I joined after seeing this thread, I find it somewhat refreshing that the Emo's have come along, now society has them to pick on, instead of it being us Goths all the time.
Anyone who's read this whole thread with all the "funny" stuff and still isn't deppresed by this has something wrong with them.
you dumbass's. it seems like emo is considered a race. its just a bunch of stupid kids that dont appreciate life. go ahead and kill yourselves, please. bullets are on sale at walmart you pieces of shit.
