So, the Emo thread at the Lounge is really fucking pissing me off. I have been completely ignored in there it seems, aside from two (or three, I don't remember offhand) people who are actually interested in learning about the music. All the thread is a bunch of people going "Oh, I don't like the emo stereotype, but I'm going to make fun of it anyway."
The emo stereotype doesn't even exist! There's no place for it and the people they're talking about are just Gothic kids that listen to MCR instead of Manson. All of this is based off of record companies trying to bring a dead subgenre of hardcore back by saying that such radio bands have some sense of it in their music.
I don't understand how someone can run around exclaiming "Hey! Look at me! I'm emo, everybody!" and expect to feel cool. Even with the supposed stereotype, you feel like you're in a class of suburbian youth who slits and wears tight pants? Fuck you.
I try to bring three posts of truth into the stereotype shithole of the thread and I get blasted by some ignoramous who doesn't even bother trying to be respectful. He said that emo kids didn't only listen to emo, rather, they listen to the shit that's played on Fuse. They're not emo kids, then, obviously. As I said, there is no truth to the stereotype here, the emo kid and the emo genre have nothing to do with eachother, and I try to clarify this and I just get trolled.
Fuck 'em.
