What They Are Really Saying Episode 12
Once in a while, Grey Fox does a hunt for the darker side of humanity on the internet. What he produces is incredible, yet....horrifying images of people's "lives" that can only be explained in....What They Are Really Saying.
I'm guilty of it, you're guilty of it, your pets are guilty of it, and just about every single living creature on this planet is guilty of it: being emo.
Just what exactly is emo? Many professionals describe it as an "emotional" music genre for those who have lost someone or something in their lives. Many followers of the emo subculture describe it as being "unique, creative, artistic, and special," which, of course, is not true, but I have to be fair to them by letting them defend themselves in their silly little ways.
My definition of emo is simple and true, just like everything I write on this site:
A goth wannabe who is too pussy to go completely goth, but still embraces the disillusion that he or she is creative and special through dressing differently, having loss, and acting non-mainstream, when he or she is just flocking to potential homosexuality.
Don't believe me when I say you've been emo before? Take a look outside your window...go on, take a look! Oh dear, is that a tree where you got your first kiss from? Notice how memories of the past begin to fill your head. Does it make you wanna cry? Do you have the sudden urge to listen to someone screaming nonsense in a mic? Do you feel the need to add a scar onto your arm with a razor blade you stole from school? If you've answered yes to one or more of these questions, then you have experienced the "unique" subculture of emo. If you said no to all of them, even the first one, you're probably just a liar, since EVERYONE has bad memories from certain images on occasion.
Whoa, Grey Fox, I thought you just said EVERYONE has bad memories from certian images that bring up painful past losses....then how is emo unique? Great question, easy answer. IT ISN'T.
Anyone can feel bad, or not wash or cut their hair, or even listen to repeatitive crap music on the radio. It's not that hard. When you make it youre life's ambition, I guess that's when they feel "unique and special."
Emo is a watered-down version of a goth, where they basically do not practice wicca or hump dead animals, but COMPLETELY wallow in "self-anguish" that they let themselves slip into for attention. Where goths want to be feared, but shouldn't be, since they are too pussy to fight back, emo wants attention for their self-pity. Even when you do give them their attention, they won't listen and dig themselves deeper and deeper. Why be sad and want attention when you don't accept the attention you get? Sounds like a mental to me!
Goths usually have the guts to kill themselves, but not emo. Emo just adds scars to their wrists, thinking they will get relief in doing harm to themselves rather than seek nurturing counsel. Their pain is derived mainly from boyfriends or girlfriends leaving them. Instead of moving on and finding someone else, AND having the joy that they didn't lose their love to death, they mope and drag the spirits down around everyone at coffee shops while they write death poetry and listen to obnoxious morons shout into a mic. EVERY emo group sounds the same and sings about the same "horrible things of life."
So, how can I avoid/find/beat up an emo? Its very simple. Emos usually wear coke bottled frames if they need glasses because apparently, having those types of glasses gives them intelligence or the preception to a common idiot that they are intelligent. As for the upper body, look for Ankhs, padded sweater vests, tight Band Name shirts, and wristbands to cover scars. Also, they tend to have dyed black hair that covers their eyes and looks uncombed and unwashed. For the lower body, its normally tight black jeans or leather, converse black hi-tops, you know, the fruit shoes with the stars on the side, and a lot of safety pins in their pants. They are not quite goth because of the lack of baggyness their clothes have.
On a final note before showing these "unique" stars of justice, you never have to worry about one of these borderline....homos EVER beating you up. I took April to the premire of the Harry Potter movie when it came out last month. I half-expected to find tons of people dressed up in Griffindor scarfs and whatnot, but instead, found a shitload of goths and emo in the line we stood in (what the hell are goths doing going to see a nerd film that doesn't show a lot of blood? Oh, the witch stuff, yippie...). I spoke up and made a funny, saying: "Wow, instead of nerds dressing up, the goth and emo crowd came out of the closet tonight!" April and her friend, Kristie laughed, but one of the emo guys gave me a mean look, to which I said: "What...what are you gonna do, cry my ears out?" He just turned around and said nothing. So, don't EVER fear emos for retaliation, they are afraid of you.
And now, for your viewing displeasure, emo:

And now, for your viewing displeasure, emo:
My dog died and I suddenly have the urge to let my Maskera run and hold a rose just like that church lady, BOO HOO HOO HOOOOOOO
Now you see why I didn't use homo loosely
I'm applying for a job at Merrell Lynch to be a consultant. I sent this photo to them so they can see how unique and creative I am ^_^
I know your cat doesn't love you anymore...it's ok, have another expresso....
If that were me in that photo, you'd see throw up coming out of my mouth
Next time, I'll be critiquing ridiculous artwork from various fandoms.
