Why Do People Hate Emo Kids So Much?

Maybe it's just some big joke, but kids seem to possibly hint at them not liking Emo kids. What's so wrong with them? No, I have never really talked to one, and I don't even know if I have seen one... So why don't people like them?

lol omg bbq loli...

Uhhh... Sorry, dude.

And do all Emos really have no problems? No abusive parents or anything? They just cry, complain, and sulk for the hell of it? It just seems kind of... odd.

Well, what did you think emo people were?

Because I have a hard time telling which ones the guy and which is the chick.bacon_is_sweet

They do wear the same tight jeans.  Frankly I just stay the hell away from them.  Unfortunately our hobby (videogames) seems to draw them like venom to parker.

Sadly yes.  Not only are they goth wannabes, but we're next. :cry:

I'm taking this literally. Emo people really do wear the same exact jeans that they wore before a day ago.

Wouldn't doubt it.

Well, I wouldn't put it past them, I just meant Emo males wear female clothing.

I highly dislike their life styles, attitude, and music.

Emo is a style of music....yet everyone confuses scene kids with the term emo.  In addition, I bet most people don't know what music is emo and what is not and confuse the two.

I can admitt, I don't really know... explanation would be nice :D 

I have no trouble with them, they don't bother anyone. The same cannot be said for chavs who are a loud and obnoxious evil to public living.

It is a fashion/social scene souly devoted to the task of attention seeking.Ninja-Vox

Aren't they all?

because people are ignorant and tend to stereotype the things they dont understand.Beaman

Emo kids go out of their way to become a walking stereotype. Just look at myspace. That site is full of millions of emo kids taking the same picture, wearing the same band tshirts, putting the same quotes in their profiles.... They're sheep. That's why I hate them. And that's why a lot of people hate them. And I think that's what they aim for.

I know the difference. But "emo kids" has become another way to describe scene kids. Words change over time. Everyone always brings up the original emo music but really, who cares? What was emo then is not what is emo now. And it's emo now that people hate.

Misapplying labels doesn't make them correct....and hate is wrong in any form.

Very true. But the fact remains that that's what people think of when they hear emo these days. And I don't hate them enough to ever act on it. I suppose I should say "strongly dislike"?

see, what you just described is scene. It has nothing to do with emo. emo originated in the late 80's and became popular in the early 90's with bands like sunny day real estate.
Beaman

Yeah, it's scene. And they call themselves emo. And so I call them emo. I also call them scene kids, and hipsters. Same thing, different name. And I like Sunny Day Real Estate.

Because they don't kill themselves fast enough.... j/k...  I was just kidding.
