If it bothers you that much find something new rather than bitching that everybody else likes what you like.

It must be so hard for you to discover you`re not actually as individual as you imagined yourself to be

I agree with urban hatemonger on this one. BUT I still think emo is annoying-- but I dont listen to it and I never have. But poeple can listen to whatever they want.

hylian82 03-25-2005 06:48 AM

freedom to listen!
 
I dun understand the huge deal. I dont listen to emo either, unless you count snowpatrol as emo, cause i hate it. Its retarded, screamo is the plague of the nation your right. HOWEVER, all you really have to do is change the station.....

ArtistInTheAmbulance 03-25-2005 10:39 AM

I couldnt care less. Why should it bother me what other people choose to listen to? I dont understand why you would care, its absolutely nothing to do with you...

hylian82 03-25-2005 11:48 AM

no i agree. thats what my post was saying. hardcorekidssuck was bitching about how bademo is, i was just suggesting that he change the station. if u dont like it, dont listen to it :P :soapbox:

That alone has made me like you. I hate it when people complain about a certain genre, its not as if anyones making them listen to it. Fair enough if youre saying why you dont like a genre, but theres a difference between that and complaining about it.

hardcorekidssuck 03-25-2005 11:57 AM

ok YEAH but the rediculously populare screamo trend thats just broken out still pisses me off. I like blue and yellow and noises and kisses by the used and some stuff by finch, I've never cared much about screamo one way or the other until it got really annoying. My girlfriend and all her fiends got into it alot pfffft. but yeah, reguardless, your right it doesnt really matter. but just for the record, it annoys me

i think people are overlooking that what is cool is controlled by Music TeleVision. Therefore, since they are playing stupid rap bullsmit, rap is cool. I mean, what are most kids listening to? rap.

What do you think the trend has been since MTV first came into play in the 80's? Yeah and honestly, what makes you different from everybody else that listens to emo? What? You probably drink, smoke, and cry in a corner like millions of other people who listen to emo. Do you sit in your bed at night and while listening to Dashboard Confessional think you've discovered the meaning of life like in some Disney movie? Get Real....if you want a new genre that not many people will know what the hell you're talking about when you discuss it with them...listen to old techno bands..then you'll be "original".

Nope, most kids listen to what woos their emotions. If you look to the people that watch MTV most like the "bling bling" and the rap stuff.
Now I'm not saying that what always woos someones emotions is emo or anything..just, the larger majority of teens fit into that "not very popular" category and try to be "original" by not listening to popular stuff.

Totally agree

do you actually talk about the music in this emo forum? every thread i read is a display of the hatred for this new wave of "emo". it pisses me off if they do not actually have a clue about the genre of music they "listen" to and they just wear the uniform.

ArtistInTheAmbulance 04-05-2005 02:59 PM

No, hence why I hardly post in here now. Its more of a 'scene' forum than a music forum sometimes...

hit the nail onnnnnnn the head.....

The whole "I must be an Emo because it is so totally cool!" is a big thing over here in England and it makes me sick to hell!
I was an Emo way back before all of that and I dont do it to be "cool!"

Sneer 04-07-2005 10:46 AM

well congratulations to you.

emo_is_my_life 04-07-2005 10:53 AM

i love emo. i always have and always will. like what most people have said if you dont like it than just dont listen to it. you shouldnt let what other people say or do get to you. if people are going to just listen to a certain genre to be "cool" than thats thier problem. but if you listen to it because its what makes you you than more power to you. i mean i listen to almost everything but rap because i just dont like it. well i dont really no what else to say but be yourself and have fun doing it.. .even if you are the only one doing it.

IamAlejo 04-07-2005 03:34 PM

Why would someone else liking what you like bother you? Are you the kind of person who gets mad when someone has the same shoes as you?

Sneer 04-08-2005 05:36 AM

you obviously do! i know the kind of people your talking about with your freind though. for example, one girl i know started getting all worked up because because a boy who doesnt particularly like rock came in wearing converse trainers. and someone had a go at me for being weird (because i like muse and radiohead). yep, people like that need a capping. lifes too short.

This_isnt_highschool 04-09-2005 06:33 AM

the whole 'emo cliche' pisses me off. it applies to guys mainly. all guys that think theyre 'emo' MUST have their hair black and to the side MUST wear a black band tee and MUST wear their trousers low with a studded belt and some sort of flat converse...dont get me wrong, it looks hot but its not necessary for EVERY emo guy to dress like it!
