the epidemic we refer to as "emo"

going out and about its become more and more apparent to me, i can no longer defend or even ignore this awful modern trend. thats all it is really. some stupid trend, its this day and ages version of the teenie bopper. disgusting. of course i'm talking about the "emo" trend. i spent much time defending this. now looking around it's not what it used to be, what it should be.
emo is short for emotional. emotional music actually. now heres where things got messed up, according to the world of emo the only emotions r dark, gruesome, lonely, depressive ones. hey guys!step outta ur dark gluminess and check this out, there r good emotions too! like oh i dunno, have u ever heard of this thing...love?? joy?? weirdos. if u look around all music is pretty much emotional, or is inspired of the various emotions the writers feel. there is some exceptions, such as rap and r and b, which is purely hormonal. yeah i said it.
somewhere the message got lost and is now just some stupid image, its not about the music, its about the look, the new prep, all about the clothes, the image. pathetic. ok u attention deprived souls out there trying to be oh so non-conformist. when everybody tries to be different by doing the same thing.... well, ur not so different. heres to u.


Admit it
Despite your pseudo-bohemian appearance
That vaguely leftist doctrine of beliefs You know nothing about art
That you couldn’t read in any trendy New York underground fashion magazine
Prototypical non-conformist
You are a vacuous soldier of the thrift store Gestapo
You adhere to a set of standards and tastes That appear to be determined by an unseen panel of hipster judges
Giving a thumbs up or thumbs down to incoming and outgoing trends and styles of music and art
Go analog baby, you’re so post-modern
You’re diving face forward into an antiquated path
It’s disgusting, its offensive don’t stick your nose up at me
You spend your time sitting in circles with your friends
Pontificating to each other forever competing for that one moment of self aggrandizing glory
in which you hog the intellectual spotlight
Holding dominion over the entire shallow pointless conversation
You are a faker (admit it)
You are a fraud (admit it)
Yeah, you’re living a lie living a lie your life is living a lie You don’t impress me!You don’t intimidate me!


so thats that. i feel better. haha. yeah i'm still gonna wear my belt off to the side. i'm still gonna sport the aviators and chucks. but thats just me. my image, don't associate me with this trend, its gonna end, always does.
