I know alot of people who don't know what "real" emo is, but I don't make fun of them because they know how to spell, I'd just explain what it is if asked, not bitch at them and calling them retarded.
I think xcult_classicx was saying "oh the irony" because even though you know that Fall out Boy and MCR arent emo, you still have a shallower interpretation of what real emo is it seems. Most of the bands that you listed are still on major/major indie labels. Thursday has emo roots and are damn good but don't really reflect the true spirit of emo. A lot of people think just because someone sings in a high winey voice over clean guitar picking means that a band is emo. look at the education thread for more info.
