hah wikipedia which as we all know is the shiznit seems to disagree.
Recently, as emo has edged its way into the public consciousness, non-fans of the genre (and even some ironic fans) have taken to using the term as a condescending insult, representing the stereotype of the angst-filled and overly-dramatic teenager. Examples include "cheer up, emo kid" or "don't mind him, he's just being emo."

Yeah, you know, I totally don't get this. I see a lot of you leaving comments here that mention Emo, which I guess makes sense, since I never realy got Emo either.
