Mexican police move to protect emo kids from rioters
Seriously, there are organized groups of people targeting kids who listen to Fall Out Boy and Dashboard Confessional. (Or their Mexican equivalents.) Wired News suggests there's an element of gaybashing going on here -- a lot of emo kids dye their hair, wear makeup, etc.
Hat Tip: Many thanks, Tony!
With summer coming up... I really wish my lawn was emo (so it would cut itself.)

LMAO dfb! How about a Mexican emo lawn? Would not only cut itself, but would edge around the curb, blow the clippings away, weed the flower beds and trim the hedges.

Emo cabana boys won't clean your pool,either. They just cry whenever some leaves blow into the water.

They don't do water JIM, it makes their mascara run.

I've said for a long time that my future employment is secure, because I'll do jobs that Mexicans won't...but I draw the line at listening to or defending emo.

Oh yea.... Oh god why Emo kids?
It all ties back to the original Emo Kid

The first one looks like someone just removed his nipple rings with a pair of pliers...

Can someone please tell me what an Emo kid is?

Emos are like goths, except they don't believe in vampires.

Ohhh, thanks James, I thought they were fans of the red fuzzy puppet. I was wanting to know where the hell the L was....

EMO kids are sort of like goth kids...but they are even bigger sissies. They struggle to be so different, that they end up all looking and acting the same. And they are all angry with their fathers, which might explain the mascara and tight jeans.

I don't think an EMO kid could handle any sort of firearm.

The school shootings have prooven you don't need actual skill to cause harm with a gun. I'd even to out on a limb, and say that those gunowners with actual training, I feel to not be likely (on average) to harm anyone outside of self defense.
But sure, and emo could point and pull a trigger, and if it's a crowd, you can't even miss.

You're just supposed to say "haha" not give me some big serious argument.

To bad a movement like that hasn't started against the irritating bass systems some local idiots have in their automobiles. If I were to play some Slim Whitman yodeling at 140 decibles while driving through residential neighborhood at 3am I'd be jailed in the very least. Lack of respect for others is the norm for these pinholes.

How many emo kids does it take to change a lightbulb?
None, they just sit and cry in the dark.
Posted by: Milkeybackwards | Saturday, March 29, 2008 at 09:33 AM
Ok, I just about spit my Red Bull all over the keyboard after reading the lightbulb joke. Saw it coming, still laughed.
(If you laughed too - you are not Emo. Pass these words of wisdom along . . . )

Man could I borrow your Slim Whitman albums?

Sitting and crying in the dark, then being self-righteous about it, they epitomize the one thing that drives normal people crazy. That's why someone wants to punch their lights out.
