Yeah, actually, because you can't be emo. Emo's a genre of music, not an actual group of people like goths, punkers, or rockers. Course that would be a bit contradicting to assume, it's mostly just a ridiculous trend. Every generation of popular music creates these trends and in a few years these trend-whores will eventually become forgotten [one could only hope].
Out of all the trends I've seen though, none has irritated me more than the "supposed emo" kid. The self-depressed teenager with an anime fetish and an ignorant view of the world.
What more has honestly pissed me off is the ****ing followers of role-players who have spread throughout places like gaiaonline and even here at TFF. I hate their l33t speak, piss-poor role-playing, giggly goody-two-shoe act, and adding of the Japanese language to their post ["omgoogles its itachi-chan!"]. Oh and did I mention the extreme fanboy/girl-ism? A perfect example would be that yaoi club here at TFF though not all of its members fit this description. If anything it's mostly the large portion of retards in this bunch that have degraded role-playing to what it is today or at least contribute it to it. I can't go to any site without finding these kids repeating the same damn thing over and over; anime role-plays and similar mindsets.
As for the real-life version of these kids, I hope they become shamed for what they did when they grow up and realize how stupid they looked and acted. I know I will when years ago in middle-school I had a similar haircut though it was actually based on a lead singer's style before the emo genre actually became popular. Honestly it's basically just the backwards version of the mullet [short front, long back--long front, short back]. Kind of ironic isn't it?
Anyway, the real emo's are still back in the 80's as everyone else should know and they weren't half bad. It was simply the music industry that revived the music and gave it a new fashion sense since boy bands and nu-metal/rap-metal was beginning to die awhile after 2000. It just makes me facepalm myself, hard, when seeing or hearing about this trend and while the music scene has died down the role-playing community is still going strong with these annoying kids. I'd ban them all if I could even if it meant losing a lot of members. The peace would be worth it. Jintatsu is an exception, however. Can't say I agree with everything he says or does, but he isn't as childish or moronic as the fakers who try to be something their not.
That is all. My rant has ended.
