:How to be Emo:

[papetowe]

For those of you who are depressed, or act like it, and are not currently emo..you may want to take this guide into consideration.

It used to be considered "cool" Well not really, but you will have alot of people who think they are "individual" when they all look the same.

Lesson 1: Veganomics
Be a vegan. My World Book dictionary (copyright 1972) describes a vegan as:
veg*an, n., adj. British. -n. a strict vegetarian: The true vegan excludes all animal protein from his diet, and he may even forego articles of clothing and household equipment of animal origin (New Scientist).
-adj. strictly vegetarian: It is difficult for a vegan diet not to result in deficiencies (J.G. Sutherland). [veg(etari)an]

...but don't become a vegan because you care about animal rights and the preservation of wildlife. Be a vegan to be cool.


Lesson 3:Tight Pants
Wear them roughly 5 sizes too small. Thats all.
Lesson 4: Dad's Closet
Go into your Father's closet, or into any "Mens" department at your local mall, and find some button down shirts. These shirts must look like any 40-55 year old would wear while doing yard work.
Next, find some sweaters...the fuzzier the better. Your dad's closet or dresser drawer is bound to be full of these things.
On your way to the vests. You might want to look in the closet again for these, as they are usually ironed so that dad will look good at the office. Put it on and take it to a sweaty concert.
Look for a REALLY LONG BELT. If your dad's fat, you're more than likely to find this accessory.
Sweater-vests are a good find as well. If none of these things float your boat, get some really tight t-shirts. Anything that looks somewhat emo, take 'em, and wear these garments to complete your emo look.
dont forget the thick rimmed glasses!
Lesson 5: Backpacks, Backpacks, Backpacks!!
Grab your backpack. Take all the unimportant things out...these things include pencils, school books, term papers, calculators, or anything that's taking up valuable space in there. Keep things an emo kid like yourself might need. For example:

* vegan food
* extra patches in case the ones on your bag fall off
* emo poetry
* extra hair dye
* wood beaded necklasses
* Razor

Make sure you have all the popular emo band's patches sewn onto your satchel. You want to make sure everyone knows how much you love these bands so they will think you're cool.

Lesson 6: Acting Emo in Everyday Life
These next two are very important lessons, because this is when all of the emo kids will be judging you. Act uninterested in everything. Nothing in the world is exciting enough for you.
If you walk into someone's living room and there's a rinocerous in there, act like it doesn't excite you. Just yawn, and ask for some rice pilaf or beans to munch on. Be really WHINY about it too. Whine a lot, and you'll be on your way to acting emo.

Lesson 7: Acting Emo at Emo Concerts
Once completing lessons (1) through (5), make your way to the emo show. It doesn't matter how you get there, because any method of transportation is emo exept for mopeds, bicycles, roller-skates, and limos. If you want to be TOTALLY emo, show up in a late-1980's van with all your favorite stickers on the back.
Now, the band comes on. You stand up front where you can see the band, and the band can see you. Do one of the following: either cross your arms, or put your hands in your pockets. The only time you're allowed to move your hands is when you clap at the end of a song.
Bob your head along with the music, but remember lesson (6) - ACT UNINTERESTED. Even if this is your favorite band in the world, you MUST NOT sing along, or even cheer after songs. Just applaud.
Lesson 8: Emo Music
Try to listen to mainly emo music.
Lesson 9: "Cut" Well not really, use a thumbtack and barely scratch the skin on your wrists so it bleeds a bit. Then people think that your trying to commit suicide. They will notice this and nod in approval.. you will feel your emoness rising.
Lip Ring:
Get one of these quick!

The Hair!
Make sure its weird, and use lots of gell and dye.

MYSPACE or XANGA
Get one of these blogs and post emo pictures of yourself, and make fake families of emo colleages.

ACTING GAY
Make sure you like the opposite sex, well at least interested in them. Its very important.




I hope this list was acurate enough to make you emo in a short period of time, and not cost you a lot of money. Take care.

Found this guide a year ago, edited it abit to my liking. :cool:

I always though kane would post his tutorial on being an emo :/
J/k Kaney ;)
Nice one papertowe (btw, did you forget an "l" at the end of your name?) very funny :p

You presumed his name was papertowel.

[I remember first post=p]

Pwnd shalt be piss-ethed.

[Arkanor]

Save a cow. Eat a vegan.

Interesting tutorial. :P

[Kernel Klink]

Very creative. However, I can see this being offensive to some people.

[Pwnd]

Pape, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

Go die.

I'm not a vegan, I wear 0's in womens pants ;)

I don't use any gel, but I have black hair.

I'm not gay, nor do I plan on it.

Emo music sucks, believe me.

Think rimmed glasses are gay as hell. Also, I haven't worn a button up shirt in my on voluntary life or plan on it either. Fake emos write poetry and suicide notes.

Next time get your facts straight, jerk.
Cutting is more of a suicidal idiot, rather than an emo.


Pwnd shalt be piss-ethed.
Damn right.

[papetowe]

Looks like your not emo then.

Pwnd I seriously could give a fuck less what you think. Oh almighty emo goddess of all thing blood soaken- and depressing.

Its a guide- referring to a subculture that many young teens, like yourself, follow.

[Xerxes]

Pwnd and Kane are emos and they have sex i heard.

[XxKanexX]

No, that's just your immaturity inside you telling you to act as an idiot and seed for attention. :)

It's working well to.

[Krazy_Meerkat]

Oh I didn't know there were such things as self-procaimed emo's :/ I guess only an emo would do something like that
I have nothing against kane or pwnd, I <3 them

[Xerxes]

No, that's just your immaturity inside you telling you to act as an idiot and seed for attention. :)

It's working well to.

Are you serious? I have been trying to look for my immaturity inside that tells me stuff but no luck. Ah well. I was just telling people the truth, after all..thats what we all want to know..right ;).

[XxKanexX]

I have been trying to look for my immaturity inside that tells me stuff but no luck.
Well, you're plain blind.


I was just telling people the truth
Blind and can't tell the different between a truth and a lie.

Wow Xerxes. I thought you were atleast a little bit smarter than that. ;)

Damn right.
Pwnd: what are you getting cut about? He did nothing to attack you in the first place. You got majorly aggressive about nothing actually aimed at you. You would only care if infact you were emo, but you think emo music sucks.. therefore, in the true sense of the word, you are not emo.

[Xerxes]

Well, you're plain blind.


Blind and can't tell the different between a truth and a lie.

Wow Xerxes. I thought you were atleast a little bit smarter than that. ;)

I am blind? That's weird, because I see stuff just like any other human.

Well yes, I am smarter than you atleast.

[Pwnd]

Xerxes, why do you come back to places such as this?

[Xerxes]

Now this is really weird. I fit alot of these. But I'm not Emo. I have my own style. Semi-Cutters/Semi-Emo/Semi-Nerd/Semi-Regular happy people. It just makes me more kool. :p

[Pwnd]

To make your ass burn.

And sorry, adsf.

[Krazy_Meerkat]

Why would you say something like that?
Not cool man :/

[XxKanexX]

To make your ass burn.

It's another personal choice. And people have their reasons.

Although i agree, how could anyone slit there wrist.. -shiver-

No offense Pwnd. :rolleyes:

[WhiteShadow]

People slit their wrists usually because they've faced to much bad things. Living is just torture so what's the point. When you die you get to just disappear. Or if you have a religion you believe in Heaven and such. Dieing would be more pleasant for them.


:( I feel bad for people who commit suicide. They must of had a rough time.

[Pwnd]

Pwnd, you know I was around since sept. on kaitnieks. Now that papetowe has all the answers... :mad: I was seeing if he was a poser, or if he actually was around during that period.

[ShadowSyntax]

No offence, but I've seen a way better guide to being emo.

[JiveTonto@Gmail.com]

[WhiteShadow]

Are you implying that Emos are gay? Well, fuck you. :mad:

[XxKanexX]

Are you implying that Emos are gay? Well, fuck you. :mad:
You're Emo? or just in love with Pwnd? :p

[SomethingToHide]

They don't slit their wrists because they want to die or hate life, they do it because

A - Attention
or in rare occasions

B - It makes them calm.


Yes it does make calm, when you're bipolar or have a mental problem like that, when you're mad and hurt yourself, you get calmer.

[c0de]

Here's what google says what emo is:

# a post-town, in the parish of COOLBANAGHER, barony of PORTNEHINCH, QUEEN'S county, and province of LEINSTER, 5 miles (E.) from Maryborough, and 34 3/4 (WSW) from Dublin, near the high road to Maryborough; containing 14 houses and 102 inhabitants. Here are the RC chapel (a neat building), a public school, and a constabulary police station. Adjoining the town is Emo park, formerly Dawson's Court, the splendid mansion of the Earl of Portarlington.-- See COOLBANAGHER.
www.booksulster.com/library/topog/e.php

# Emergency Management Office (USA).
www.nf2g.com/scannist/glossary_e.html

# Emo (an abbreviation of "emotionally-driven Hardcore punk") is a term now broadly used to describe almost any form of guitar-driven alternative rock that expresses emotions beyond traditional punk's limited emotional palette of alienation and rage. It is also used to describe fans of this genre, most commonly teenagers. (e.g., emo kid). The actual term "emo" originated in the mid-1980s D.C. scene, with the band Rites of Spring, as well as bands such as Fugazi, Moss Icon, and Antioch Arrow. ...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emo

# Emo is an Irish filling station chain, owned by DCC. It was created in 2000 when BP Amoco purchased the Burmah filling stations (along with the rest of Castrol). As BP had closed their Irish operations (selling them to Statoil), they had little interest in Burmahs Irish network, and it was purchased by DCC.

[JiveTonto@Gmail.com]

lol google owned that one

[The Prince of Randomness?]

What a bunch of stereotypical bullshit, most of that is not emo.

@Pwnd
I would have done the same thing, why do people consider me emo if i am none of these things (Sorry if i am getting the wrong image)

[Tarantula]

I'll must be emo! xD

This is sick :F

~Tarantula

[Bego]

I seriously have no fucking idea why someone would want to be emo.

[The Prince of Randomness?]

If someone acts depressed and doesnt really fit in, they could be an emo and fit in ith emo kids.

[WhiteShadow]

If someone acts depressed and doesnt really fit in, they could be an emo and fit in ith emo kids.

Emo with emo, oh how fun. (:

Ok peoples, If your a spoiled brat, with richass mama's and papa's that love you and you have nothing to worry about, you must be a poser. If your mostly stress free your not emo. If you cut you might be emo, or a whacko. If you think it's prideful to be emo your definately not emo! because you don't know what it's really about. Being an emo helps people, if you just like emo fashion then fine, but your not emo. Appearances are nothing. Emo is more of a feeling.

[Avaphi]

maybe change it to.. :how to be a fag/emo/queer/gay person: because I honestly cant stand emo's nor gays, so they are all in one category for me :)

[WhiteShadow]

Very bratty kid you are...

[The Prince of Randomness?]

Fuck you db..

[Avaphi]

Bratty no, Just grew up with different beleifes(sp..lol) and in a different place then you, Thats all :) I consider gay men.. Something wrong in the head with them, because it has been proven by a many few that it is wrong. so I categorize emo's in the same area because of the fact that there must be something wrong in there head because.. I dont know what kind of sick person would cut them selves. Its not even the music.. the clothes.. Everything is ok.. but the cutting of the wrist.. that disgusts me :mad:

[Jagex_Fagex]

im not emo, i sometimes cut myself when im depressed... im not affected in the head at all.. go shove that up your scientifically proven ass and have tolerance of other types.

EDIT: DB if i ever see you, remind me to smash your head in with a win bottle?:mad:

[The Prince of Randomness?]

but stereotyping that every emo cuts? no.
I cut when im sad. thats all. when im really depressed.

[WhiteShadow]

but stereotyping that every emo cuts? no.
I cut when im sad. thats all. when im really depressed.

Me too. I even made an X once, I've had it for 3 years now, and it's slowly fading. I was really lost and sad.

[Avaphi]

I never said that all emos cut, but that fact that some do is just disturbing in my mind :\ You are obviously effected in the head from Something/Someone that traumatized you sometime in your life. So yes you kind of are a bit messed up if you cut, Because after all there is always a reason for depression, which I guess in some people( I feel sorry that you resort to this :\)triggers a feeling that you need to inflict pain on yourself. I feel sorry for cutters but.. I dont know, its just wrong in my mind, I always find other ways to get rid of my depression, I script :) And why did you call me a brat, because I express my opinion on a >>FORUM<< and they are different then yours ? :eek: Also, you would like to smash a wine bottle on my head?... for expressing an opinion.. on a FORUM(once again...) and it is different then yours... Wow

[Jagex_Fagex]

no, i would like to because you show no tolerance of other types.. sure you can post your opinion, but thats all, you should show tolerance of other types and not try to pay them out..

[Avaphi]

I never said I cant stand emo's I just dont understand how they can cut them selves. On the other hand... I..err.. I am homophobic :\ I cant change the way I am. It was imprinted into my brain, so.. I dunno :p

[jcs_double]

all my friends reckon i could be emo but nobody would like it and another person i know he dyes his hair black and he gets all of the attention for being emo and he hates it. also i could never cut myself i am afraid of pain

[I remember first post=p]

Why must people awake the threads that sleep with their ancestors?

[The Un-Named]

maybe change it to.. :how to be a fag/emo/queer/gay person: because I honestly cant stand emo's nor gays, so they are all in one category for me :)

The same guy also wrote:


On the other hand... I..err.. I am homophobic :\

, and to top it all:


I never said I cant stand emo's

[Avaphi]

Ok your right, But I can stand emos as long as there not within... 4 feet of me for more then 30 seconds k?

[Eludis]

Ummm, that OMGJeremy site has like a million hentai reviews and articles lol...Who found it first??? XD

[Ruroken]

[someone]

[Drew_Dawg]

[yeahright.]

LMAO this is great.
i wanna be emo. lol not really.

[Drew_Dawg]

dude, don't be hating on emos, just because we're depressed doesn't mean we suck at life, ok we do, but that's not the point

[SonOfSheep]
