[SgtD]

[Xx-Ky-xX]

how did this come about?

[Aleiav]

Aren't you required by law to inform the police where they live if they threaten to hurt themselves and/or others?

[Notoday]

Aren't you required by law to inform the police where they live if they threaten to hurt themselves and/or others?

No. That's completely impossible. The shear volume of kids making threats every day, about damaging themselves and/or others, online, would swamp the emergency services. It's a matter of discretion. Dusty is busy... we all are... I think if someone is really depressed, it'd be better for them to communicate that instead of making threats.

[xsecx]

Aren't you required by law to inform the police where they live if they threaten to hurt themselves and/or others?

what law?

[xxAdriannaxx]

You do have better English than a lot of native speakers.

I personally am fine with mistakes, it's the people who do it on purpose I can't do with *HxCxSxE or whaterver it is I'm looking at you*

How are you even finding these year old threads?

[Paracetamol]

Oh don't worry; I've found the thing at the bottom of the forum page. And yeah this one's a sticky...silly me

[WorkingClassSkin]

I know this one's a bit off topic now, but what kind of Emo sissy would come into a forum just to whine about how much he/she would like to die?

OH GOD! PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO ME! I NEED CONSTANT AFFECTION OR I'LL JUST DIE!! SOMEBODY HUG ME!!! Pussies.

excellent! :D

thats why at my school we have an anti-emo army

How did straight edge ever get a bad name?

[BornAgainVirginDrugs]

doesn't matter. pm me what you want you name to be changed to. I'm not down with people using depression as a fashion accessory.

Um, since when was a name a fashion accessory? I was always under the impression a name was a symbol, and the purpose of a symbol is to make connections and trigger certain thoughts in the brain.

And maybe people are using depression as a form of expression, not fashion, because this is a "sXe" forum, not EMO.

Take my name for example, it's very vague, you can take it however you want, "BornAgainVirginDrugs."

Maybe someone with a name like "Iwanttocutmywristsanddiebecauseimsoemo" is actually using teenage angst in a comedic sense.

I'm not defending suicide because it's f**king pansy, but I am always an advocate of freedom.

It's just ultra conservative to prevent and even frown upon expression.

I'm not expecting you to understand freedom is always cooler, I was merely expressing my dismay to your discouragement of symbol freedom.

RAH RAH RAH.

[M3D!C]

i agree
anyone with any mention of killing themselves, suicide, razor blades, etc etc etc, will be deleted and forced to come up with a new name.

[BornAgainVirginDrugs]

Wow, what a coincidence, I planned on killing myself tonight!

[xJoeyNormalx]

Though it's a signature, not a name, I'd just like to confirm that my signature isn't breaching this rule. I don't really see SK's quote as about suicide or depression, and that's not why I like it, but I am happy to change it.

[strombollii]

who the fuck would want to kill themselfs we are edge not emo.
..etc, etc.

since when is emo a label for depression? Fuck, I like Dashboard, Deathcab, and Cursive, apparently I want to kill myself now.

Seriously, I'm not the most tolerant person in the world, but you're all doing nothing but propagating this "angsty" bullshit. Emo's a fucking genre, not a label.

[xolliex]

by the way im new so can some one tell me how to start a new thread please?

there's a button! its at the top of each board

Slow and introspective bands get the "depressed" wrap.

Loud and energetic bands get the "angry" one.

Crunk bands get the "ignant" wrap.

Doesn't mean they are those things... just means people tend to generalize and that's just the way the cookie crumbles.

Ain't society a pain in the ass?

[Just-a-fool]

To kill yourself isnt quite a sign of being Emo,
and even if it was then it wouldn't matter because the emo would be dead.
However attempting to kill theirselves is more likely when you follow a
emo lifestyle.

But then again, i heard about a 40year old guys killing himself.
And i strongly doubt he was emo (sure he was emotional) but not a
follower of the subculture.

I guess what i'm trying to say is that the idea of wanting to kill yourself
can come to any of us. At a bad moment in life, its just the way you handle it
that will define who you are and how you stand in life.

[Segadoway]

Fuck off.
first of all learn to spell.

maybe because he isnt a macho idiot like you, if he does want to do those things let him, why would anyone want to wear braces and shave their head? you fool.

[xKINGx]

sounds like a good thing to me!

[xKINGx]

Wait, wait. First, sorry about the double post, but how in the world did this thread develop into this at the end talking about emos?! My first reply was to the topic, not to the currnt discussion on the thread. Try to keep things on topic please.

As discussions do not stick rigidly to the first thing discussed the best option is to quote the post you are replying to. This then lets your post make sense to all who read it and doesn't prohibit a discussion from naturally taking a different course and ending up discussing something quite different.

[Sociocidal]

Fuck off.

ok regardless of my own view of emos, emo culture, or emo music, i dont think shaving your head, wearing braces makes you a macho idiot... nor does being proud of your own masculinity make you an fool...

[Just-a-fool]

Ey! nothing against fools pls...

[Segadoway]

i didn't say that at all, i said you are an idiot for making fun of someone elses culture when people do the same to you.
and i think it does, did you choose to be a man? why be proud of it? what you said made you a macho idiot and i stand by that.

calling "emo" a culture is hilarious in itself.

[Just-a-fool]

I believe that Emo is as much a culture as Straightedge is a culture.
They are both subcultures of a music genre.

[xsecx]

not really, what people call emo and "scene" kids aren't really based on anything, and the music that actually is emo, isn't listened to by people who are "emo"

[Just-a-fool]

If a big group of people believe the same thing,
act the same way, wear the same clothing style, listen to the same music.
(let it be its not the emo music that others give the name, just the SAME music)
Then what stops them from being a subculture or even a culture.
This however is my view on what makes a culture.

in the general sense it is, but in specific when talking about things like goth, punk, skinheads, straight edge, etc it doesn't make sense to compare, because it's a fashion and not a subculture. The bands that the kids listen to don't call themselves emo bands. The only thing calling themselves emo are the kids, which are distinctly different to the kids who listen to actual emo music and call themselves emo.

[Just-a-fool]

That part makes totally no sense.
But a music genre that excists as long as punk does deserve to be called a culture.
Anyway, it all depends on your own point of fiew.
Its all about perception in the end... everything in life is about perception.

it does, there are 2 things that exist in parallel. there is the actual emo subculture, which isn't what you're talking about, and the fashion emo, that you are. They share a name, but they're not the same. If a bunch of kids starting shaving their heads and calling themselves skinheads, it wouldn't make them a culture.

it's not because the genre exists for as long as punk, that it's a culture. there's nothing to believe in, in emo... (or is there ? tell me plz)
it's the biggest fucking bullshit i've ever heard, those emo kids calling there style a culture; like dusty said, it's a fashion, not a culture.

btw, are you going to the Groezrock festival ?

Kk, you have me there. Maybe its not a culture and i am wrong, sorry for that.
And no i'm not going :( it too expensive for me.

Yeah i listen to alot of different genres of music and emo is one of them, and to be honest i dont want to kill myself at all lol

I agree with the point of not allowing people to come on the board and speak about hurting themselves or someone else. It makes me so angry when i hear about kids being egged on to do stupid things on online msg boards.
Makes me wonder why someone would want to broadcast themselves like that! if they are feeling they want to die, why come online and tell everyone first! unless they dont really want to and want someone to talk them out of it. Spose alot of kids dont have many friends outside the online community.

I dont know i kinda went off a little there in my own thoughts, guess we'll never know

[Just-a-fool]

Emo (music) is not ALL about killing yourself!
It is a way of dealing with your feelings to many people.
I hardly doubt that every person who listens emo music kills itself,
goes the other way too, people who listen other music DO kill themselves aswell.

You cant take a music style and say 'They kill themselves'
you can however say you think they are pathetic, thats an opinion and not a fact.

[MrMcKeigue]

Is the "it" here referring to the individual people or the music? I'm confused.

[blackrainbow]

emo is short for emotional.
therefore pretty much all music is 'emo' as pretty much all music expresses and/or creates some kind of emotion.
