The racist douchebag ones are douchiest.

Suggest they change the title from Blabbermouth to Mouthbreather.

Noodle Vague, Saturday, 10 May 2008 13:29 (eighteen years ago)

^^^I like this one best, he's so METAL that he quotes Daria.

Dom Passantino, Saturday, 10 May 2008 13:30 (eighteen years ago)

if you write songs about cutting yourself and take it on as a lifestyle unfortunately your fans will follow sad to say,

are there actually songs about cutting?

Curt1s Stephens, Saturday, 10 May 2008 13:41 (eighteen years ago)

this is not suicide, it's natural selection.
With this and the beatings in Mexico and MCR speaking out against it, I think it's possible that emo will only get "stronger"

^^ these two sequentially make me wonder if the emos will evolve into a master race and enslave us all

Curt1s Stephens, Saturday, 10 May 2008 13:44 (eighteen years ago)

"It sickens me more than you all will ever know, but that's what's happening."

I really like this as the guy seems to be going for a tone normally reserved for, say, internet paedophile rings

DJ Mencap, Saturday, 10 May 2008 13:49 (eighteen years ago)

"No remorse for some 13 y/o Who took the cowards way out"

THAT SHOWED HER

Noodle Vague, Saturday, 10 May 2008 13:50 (eighteen years ago)

As much as I hate emo music, I'd suggest she killed herself because she was an ugly bitch who was destined to be a drug addicted whore, not because MCR told her to.

^^^LBZC material

"Sad to say, but most people are stupid enough to let music, muvies or books influence their lives in moronic ways. just take a look at those black metal idiots. Don't want to sound like an asshole, but in a way is a good thing that useless people kill themselves. We are overpopulated by fools."

^^^ Babytalk Gang material

Doesn't sound that much different than ILX.

thirdalternative, Saturday, 10 May 2008 14:06 (eighteen years ago)

BAM

Noodle Vague, Saturday, 10 May 2008 14:09 (eighteen years ago)

from some butthurt dude I've never heard of

Noodle Vague, Saturday, 10 May 2008 14:09 (eighteen years ago)

I hate to be the one to let you guys in on this...but ALL music is Emo. If you think emotions didnt play a part in writing Seasons in the Abyss, Master of Puppets, Welcome to the Jungle, War Pigs, etc. you're a complete fucking moron. Creativity springs from emotion.

LOL, that's the kind opening line you use to tell your best friend his gf is fucking the football team.

RabiesAngentleman, Saturday, 10 May 2008 14:11 (eighteen years ago)

OH, ilx is usually a bit better than that.

RabiesAngentleman, Saturday, 10 May 2008 14:12 (eighteen years ago)

This is actually tougher than I'd anticipated...sooo many good ones.

brightscreamer, Saturday, 10 May 2008 15:25 (eighteen years ago)

What does EMO backwards spell? FAG

King Boy Pato, Saturday, 10 May 2008 15:31 (eighteen years ago)

^^^I imagine Yoda saying that.

RabiesAngentleman, Saturday, 10 May 2008 15:36 (eighteen years ago)

In the next Director's Cut.

King Boy Pato, Saturday, 10 May 2008 15:44 (eighteen years ago)

Looks like The Daily Mail WAS right when they done that article on emo last year.

And to think we all scoffed when we read it.

DavidM, Saturday, 10 May 2008 16:36 (eighteen years ago)

I'm torn, because

You think Jimi Hendrix ever wasted his time with that shit? Jimi Hendrix wanted to kick ass and so he kicked ass, he didn't whine and complain and wait for some knight in shining armor to come rescue him.

is undeniably true, but

...but what about rap? When any other race commits a crime we dont hear that it is because they listen to 50 Cent or because they listen to Busta Rhymes or any of the other million ganster rappers that come out every day.

touches on something I think we've all been thinking about.

Z S, Saturday, 10 May 2008 16:58 (eighteen years ago)

are there actually songs about cutting?

yes, by known emo superstars juliana hatfield and kristin hersh

This was posted by a former Sudanese child soldier, I imagine.

whoa that's deep maaaaan ^

"Jimi Hendrix wanted to kick ass and so he kicked ass"

calstars, Saturday, 10 May 2008 23:40 (eighteen years ago)

True dat

calstars, Saturday, 10 May 2008 23:41 (eighteen years ago)

it's pretty fucking sad to see people glad that someone is dead yeah i hate emo music too but i don't wish their fans would kill themselves these fucking emo bands need to think that their fans are usually very young and impressionable if you write songs about cutting yourself and take it on as a lifestyle unfortunately your fans will follow sad to say,believe me i love death metal and thrash but thankfully i never misinterpreted a bands lyrics i think the emo scene is a little different because it's more about an image than the music hell i wish emo music would die and not their fans join the dark side of death metal you'll be happier trust me i am

Comparitavely reasonable and humane. Gets my vote.
