BF2S Forums Who all hates Emos ?

"Emo is the new goth, exept goth is still around, so it's becoming unbearable."

-Maddox, http://maddox.xmission.com

I feel strongly about that quote...

It doesn't seem to be that big of a deal here in germany. Haven't seen much of them anyway.

But why throw that much hate at them ? It's just another trend for teenagers growing up. Skaters, goths, punks, emos, those are just cliches.

i wish my grass was emo, so it would cut itself...

Everyone should just be a skinhead, the world would be a lot better off.

Skaters....I can tolerate to an extent.  I have a few "casual" friends that are quote, un quote, skaters.  Nice people until they start trying to take me to Hurley stores and telling me that I need to "Try on these dope DC shoes man, and when you put them on, don't tie your shoelaces".  FUCK YOU, my mom taught me how to tie my shoelaces when I was three for a reason....so I wouldn't bust my face on the concrete, but it tends to be the exact nature of their existence, busting their faces on concrete over and over again for no purpose.  I swear to GOD if another person tries to pony off an old AFI cd to try and get me "hooked" I'm gonna rip out their fucking heart and eat it.  Also, not one single "sk8er" person I know has a job that amounts to anything more than fast food, and they don't care.  Which is sad.  A guy I went to high school with who is about 23 now, still works at Wendy's and goes to the skate park to hang out with his 15 and 16 year old friends.  Losers.

jeez...that's what a 'skater' has become?  ....so sad.  I skated A LOT back in the early-to-mid 90s, but rarely do so now.  Back then, I thought the 'scene' was already getting pretty lame, as this is the time that skate-centric brands started to bombard the marketplace.  All the sudden my old and worn Jason Lee or Santa Cruz shirts weren't cool.  My 'regular' clothes.....my lord...who would be caught in that??? :-)  Still....loose shoes would have been considered stupid then, just as it *should* now.  How the hell do you skate with shoes that fall off?  And for the record, AFI is crappy, yeah.  Back in 'the day', it was Bad Religion, Descendents, Black Flag, Dwarves etc. that were the trendy bands amongst the skater crowd in my town.  Not too bad when compared to Fallout Boy et al.

If they are happy living their life that way, maybe they've got something right.  I know that all to often, I'm way too stressed, which I know isn't good for me physically or mentally.  I often times wish I could live just a little be simpler.

...and just so you can at least say you "heard of a guy" that skated and had a job, I'm 30, have a degree I earned on full-scholarship, graduated on the Dean's list (3.95), and now work in IT for the federal gov't (U.S.).
It isn't very punk of me, but ah well.  I can think of 3 or 4 friends in similar situations too (skater friends that went on to be professionals in a variety of fields).

In the end,  teenagers can do whatever they want and I don't care.  Trying to find a place to feel like you fit in is part of growing up.  I wish them luck in finding a way to actually grow from those experiences.

If I were going to be 'hatin', I'd pick on the straightedge and skinhead folks.  :-)

^agreed^



What do you lot care anyway, You cant stand a trend you dislike?

Emo/goth cut and kill themselves, WHERES THE FUCKING DAMAGE? if you hate them so much why do you care if they do this to themselves.

oh and for the record, Ya im against the whole emo thing but its what kids are doin to fit in. Let em do it and hopefully within a couple years they realise that its just a fad and join the rest of society again

guess alot of its just lost kids trying to fit in, at least in some way or another.. i especially like the fringe- who started this? and more importantly - why does everyone copy it. Its just another way of conforming to a categery and labelling yourself

as u say tho, i dont hate them at all,
i just find it abit funny that they seem to be clones.. just like chavs - as the guy from chelms said.
i drove past 5 guys once all wearing the same hacket no.1 tshirt..
i almost crashed i was laughing so hard

I'm willing to bet that quite a few people in here bashing emos are emos in disguise. Teenagers have always been emotional whiners though. It's not like it's something new. "Daddy only bought me the 20 GB Ipod and I wanted the 40 GB one. WAHH!!!!"

yeah i hate emo's and goths, all they want is some attention don't give it to them!!!!!

They give converse a bad name at our school, Fuckin hate em

Anyway, this emo beat down day went pretty well at my school, half the emos didnt even goto school that day

yet another annoymouse - karma.. fantastic considering this is a "hate emo" thread..
whoever you are, i bet your an emo.. and i say this to you

FUCK YOU YOU SAD LITTLE BITCH
