i think it may shed some light on the issue of both hardcore AND emo.

holy crap give me some time to read this shit. this is like a freakin theorem yenh.

Just skip to the good parts. Like how emo sucks. Kinda reminds me of hippies. They don't do shit while they complain. Piss me off.

And what did I say about Fugazi and DC?

Don't listen if you don't wanna hear it, your complaining right now aren't you?

lol yeah it is kind of hypocritical but whatever.

Actually, I am complaining, and I am doing something about it. So that's not very hypocritical.

really? and what is it exactly that ur doing..other than complaining????

Dude... Read this... http://www.angelfire.com/emo/origin/

=\ I'm beatin up the emo ****ers who call themselves hardcore, but are just MTV-generation-emo-****ers. First, I start off with intimidation. Then if I have to I start yelling at them. Rarely does it get past this because where ever it happens, because most people are taught they should not fight, thus avoiding confrontation.

alright, so what kind of bands do you all consider emo?......
