It was in response to you being "proud to be a junkie"

are you all kidding me??
simple plan?? blink 182??saves the day??
emo isn't about little girls and their dreams, or about ****ing yearning over some girl.
go back and listen to what emo really is, **** like christie front drive, mineral, rites of spring, cap'n jazz. that **** is pioneer and ***gots like chris conley wouldn't be anything if it wasn't for them. look into the history before you start trying to explain or talk about the ****ing subject.

I'm just going to sit in the corner, rocking back and forth slowly, wondering why everyone has to get so angry about something so trivial.

The discussion about what emo is is quite violent. Most people are either too ignorant about the genre's existence ("Blink 182 is emo"), or are frustrated that everyone is so ignorant (Zander).

....or there are so many written definitions, who knows which is the true one.
