WTF is an emo?

They are just people, brother Riv.

 

Some misfits that dress punk and wear makeup.

 

Inside they are all people. Just like everyone else.

Amen

Actually it was not me who said that I despise emo people. I just said that I did not agree with their whole...thing. Plus, you compare the Emo culture to different races. Last I checked, a race and a culture of whiny people are not the same thing. Also, you are right, I don't understand them. The sane do not understand the insane. Anyway, stop being such an ignoramus!

Ikoul, your remarks are inappropriate. You don't have to agree with that lifestyle, but keep it to yourself, please.

I will admit that I have said some things that might not be completely appropriate, but that does not change the fact that I am being accused of saying things I haven't said, and that dweezil took a lot of personal offense to my general statements. Just because your son is emo does not mean that you should bring that up.

 

This is where I might make a comment about female rationality, but that would be sexist and make me seem like an ass.

Either they're appropriate or they're not. The above quote is another good example of an inappropriate post. Now would be a good time for you to stop typing for a while.

Excellent. Thank you for the acknowledgement.

 

As for that post, the whiny people comment is just the way I happen to see most emo people. That might not be true, but from my experience that is what it seems like. The insane thing, I apologize for. That was a pointless and untrue statement. I also apologize for the ignoramus comment. That was rude and uncalled for. I just thought you were being one at the time. I also love that word. Heh. Anyway, I am sorry.

Emo is a type of music.

 

This music often consists of bland pop-rock music over which guys sing in such a way so as to sound like they are crying. The lyrics are usually run-of-the-mill "my-girlfriend-just-left-me-I-think-I-will-go-kill-myself-now" blather.

 

The above comment pertains to the MUSIC, not anyone's sons.

 

 

 

THAT is all I was ever trying to say.

This is an excellent CD. Green Day deserve a lot of credit for staying true to themselves, resisting the sell-out pattern practically every other band succumbs to and maintaining a fresh and sapid sound.

Whenever I've occasion to commandeer my mom's car and go for a spin, I find the experience most enjoyable with American Idiot blaring through the speakers. In fact, yesterday on a drive back from Jerusalem I picked up three hitchhikers (including two beautiful girls who, alas, were minors) and I could hear them humming along to "Boulevard" and a couple other tracks in the back seat.

 

[Edited to add hitchhiker story.]

Never seen em live, but they are coming to SF to play Pac Bell Park (I dont care what you wanna cal it, its PAC BELL PARK YOU MARKETING BASTARDS!!!) later this year.  I think I might check them out then, I may not buy thier album, but I think I will go to thier show.

It really is a sin that they do that to our performance venues. It happens in Israel also and I get sick every time I hear "Nokia Arena" 062802puke_prv.gif

I think they changed the name of the Providence Civic Center where I saw Rush twice as a teenager to the "Fleet Center" or some such abomination.

 

Correction: The "Fleet Center" 062802puke_prv.gif is the new name of Boston Garden - the same historic Boston Garden where Larry Bird and the Celtics won three NBA championships. The Providence Civic Center I once knew and loved has become the "Dunkin's Donuts Center" 062802puke_prv.gif - not surprizing when you consider Rhode Island has the most Dunkin Donuts stores per square mile of any other state in the USA.

 

[Edited to append correction.]
