National Emo Beatdown Day

yeah… emo sucks.

Okay, since we got so many tough guys on here, I thought I would give you a heads up.

When you purposely harm someone you never met, know of, or have any reason to, you fuck up. You really fuck up because one day you’re going to get caught, and your victim will be so enraged that they won’t think twice about ending your life.

I don’t know about many other people, but if someone threw something at me while I’m biking, or if they swerve at me, brush me, HIT me, whatever, I would… you know, I can’t say it here.

I’ve caught kids in a car at stoplights who’ve done this kind of shit to me. I can’t stress enough how a person’s jdugement is NOT rational after such an incident. Killing a person who threw an object at them is not right. But that does not matter.

Some riders DO carry guns. Don’t find out the hard way. I haven’t, I think straight, so I know I shouldn’t carry one.

Grow up, have some respect, and there will be no problems.

Some of them even have a sense of humor. Yeh, I know it isn’t nice to talking about beating up on someone, but we are not talking specifics here (with the exception of James Blunt).

We are talking about a stereotype and I dont think that any T-Men are actually going to walk away from their computer and beat the shit out of an emo.

It is great that you are standing up for the wankers (sorry couldn’t help myself) but with all your whinging you are starting to sound like one of them.

Rant over! Resume your emo defence if you wish.

the shit people call emo these days isn’t even real emo. it’s just pop music with the right haircut…i would know…i was there in the basements and warehouses in '92 when bands like this first started to surface. it wasnt about the hair or the tight clothes or the b.s. you see now. it was honest pure self expression in the most absolute manical terms you could imagine. when they bled and screamed back then it was for reasons which ran deeper than what the main stream could accept or understand…now when they scream and perform various acts of douchery - it’s to sell records. f*ck nu-emo.

Don’t be a fag?! What if I happened to be gay? Are you going to make a joke about how you like to beat fags up too? I would really love to hear it.

Not fuck nu-emo, fuck all emo. Cutting yourself is for bitches who are starving for attention. That being said, I kind of agree with you on the point that ones who do it to be cool are pathetic wretches who need a fucking wake up call.

Emo is not the worst teenage fahion/culture, think yourselves lucky in the UK we have chavs everywhere, I would swap chavs for emos anyday!

What the hell is a chav? I’m from the US so forgive my ignorance. Is it basically what we would call poseurs or wiggers over here?

Fuck yeah. Chavs are a scourge on society. Emos - sure, they are fuckwits, but they’re harmless. They live in their own little deluded world, but they don’t harm me so i’m happy to let them be, but silently seethe inside about their stupid nature.

Chavs on the other hand are a malignant group. Trouble-making little cunts who hang around in little gangs harrassing old ladies and stealing all sorts of shit, and you damn well can’t give them a decent beating cos they’re usually about 15.

Gonna stop now, because i’ve just worked myself into a rage and now i’m gonna beat the crap out of my heavy bag.

No. Chavs are like trailer trash. They tend to be white, and you can recognise them by wearing tracksuits, sportswear and fake burberry. They love baseball caps. They’re probably eyeing up your wallet too. They’ve got a look in their eye that identifies as the unemployed, social security spongers that they are.

We have wiggers here (UK) too.

I know it’s over but can we throw in wanna be gangstas (all races) in here too? Hava a 6-7-6 gangsta beatdown. There are so many of those in my old town it’s laughable…


Anybody ever seen that south park where wendy dumps stan and he turns emo/goth? the line that butters said at the end of that episode is classic.
Goth kid: I guess you could come join us.
Butters: No thanks. I’d rather be a crying pussy that a faggy goth kid.

Laughed my remaining testicle off.

Ah, thanks for schooling me lol. I went to that chav scum website, and I’d agree that Britney Spears definitely qualifies as a celeb chav. I’m disturbed that I live in a society that increasingly regards being trashy as something cool.

I think they have them (chavs) all over Europe, not just UK. I know the last time I was in Ukraine, those bastards were all over the place (they’ve been an issue there since USSR).

My wife listens to James Blunt.

I photocopied the artwork on the top of the James Blunt CD, make a sticker out of it, and put it on top of my copy of Reign in Blood. I then put it inside her James Blunt CD jacket.

She had a couple of friends over on the weekend and went to put some tunes on. She was NOT happy.

Nicely done.

One of the best quotes that I heard about James Blunt was:

‘Why would anyone want to sing about old men on the beach with erectile dysfunction’

Think about it…

Yes but do not forget they had smoked all the shit they could find, that could explain it, I too once had a semi by the sea, mind you I was on anudist beach

Are straightedges those people that don’t smoke, dont drink and don’t get laid?
I used to be one. Then I turned 16. I don’t smoke, and anything over 2 beers and I fall asleep, but women are wonderful.[/quote]

To each his own…

To me being straightedge isn’t really about being anything other than what you want to be. I don’t smoke or drink, and I don’t really believe in “casual sex”, although I guess that’s a vague term (to me it means not hooking up with girls I don’t know or girls who’re drunk, although I still appreciate the ole vag as much as any guy!).

My point is that I want to make myself better every day (make myself stronger, a better athlete, smarter, better at guitar, etc.- better at whatever I want to put my mind to) and I want to cut out things that I view as negative or preventing me from reaching my potential as a person. I don’t want to be one of those toolbags who drifts through life and sits around talking about how wasted he got the night before like he’s the only one to ever do so. To me drinking, smoking, etc. is just escapism, peple aren’t able to face the problems that life deals them so they turn to other shit to distract them rather than dealing with it.

The problem with most people who are in the scene is that they get involved in it for the wrong reasons- to escape their problems rather than just grow up and deal with it.

Anyway, that’s my take on it, I try not to associate myself with any scene or group of people. I just try to do my own thing, I just happen to like some of the bands. It’s a shame that most PosiCore bands take themselves too seriously and their lyrics are too forced to be any good.

Ha, that episode was just on last.

I love how it’s about “self expression”. Being an “individual” etc., etc.

Yeah, it’s so “individual” that you can pick one out a mile away.

“Hmmmmmmmmm, I need a look. I need a new angle. I know, I’ll go EMO. That way I can express my true self and have my own identity”

It’s all so pathetically ironic.
