Apparently more than half the people don't get that IT'S A JOKE! We're bashing the emo stereotype, not emos.

My first video!!!

This is a music video I made (with the help of some of my friends) of one of my favorite Fall Out Boy songs.

The List:
1. Don't admit to being emo. Don't call the music or style of dress emo. Say "alternative."
2. Cut your wrists. Not enough to actually harm yourself, but just enough to leave good scars.
3. Dye your hair to one of the extremes, i.e. dark or platinum. Extra points for both.
4. Buy every CD by every band in the genre, especially the earlier ones.
5. Be seen at all the right shows. Avoid more popular band's shows like Fall Out Boy, Taking Back Sunday, and Dashboard Confessional...Brand New is still okay.
6. Wear lots of eyeliner, capri length tights, colorful shoes (flats mostly), skinny jeans, babydoll dresses.
7. Get facial piercings.
8. Make sure your myspace reflects your misery. (Especially your blogs)
9. Learn to smoke. Then hang around all the hip coffeeshops, chainsmoking, while you and your pretentious friends judge everyone around you.
10. Do Your Part to Save the Scene and Kill Yourself [no more posers]

  • you guys who are offended are gay as fuck. I used to cut myself and attempted suicide and thank my lucky stars everyday because I'm still alive. However, I still have a sense of humor and this video is funny as hell!

  • i can't tell you how awesome you are for understanding it's a joke!! seriously you rock!

  • OKAY FUCK YOU!!

    MAKING FUN OF PEOPLE FOR CUTTING AND KILLING THEIRSELFS! HOW FUCKING LOW CAN YOU GET!?!

    I USED TO CUT MYSELF.

    I TRIED TO KILL MYSELF.

    AND PERSONALLY THIS OFFENDS ME.

    SO. WHAT. THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM?

    OH, AND ER BY THE WAY FUCK DUMBASS WHO MADE THIS VIDEO, SCISSORS WORK VERY WELL IN THE CUTTING PROCESS [:

    and if anyone feels they need to bitch at me for this, please message my youtube and i'll give you my myspace [:

  • ha ha finally someone gets it. love the sarcasm!

  • wtf ?

    you could have done soo better than that !

    and what is the point in this video anyway ?

    to make fun of emo's ?

    GET A LIFE AND STOP MAKING FUN OF PEOPLE AND THE WAY THEY DRESS OR ACT.

    i know that some emos are posers but that dosent mean that chavs arent.

    chavs are stupid and up themselves and just retarded. thats what you are.

  • hey, give us a break, it was the first video we ever made. and we never claimed that we are chavs (we have NO idea what that means).

    bottom line, we grew up in the scene and this was a video poking fun at people we know (and sometimes are). please STOP TAKING THIS SO SERIOUSLY.

    oh, and we find it hilarious and flattering that so many people get so worked up about this.

  • wow. this ish offensive to some ppl. i can see why!

  • I loved this video! My favorite was the how there was a last ditch effort made to cut with a butter knife... Lol. And I absolutely love this song too! One of my favorites actually! There was a comment earlier about how people become emo because their lives are falling apart and... blah, blah, blah. I know I'm a year late, but still I don't think people become emo for any other reason than that it's the latest trend. I'm not buying that they became emo because they want to cut or die or whatever.

  • yeah if you look up how to be emo, your a poser. i totally agree, this vid is lame

  • wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooow

  • "Apparently more than half the people don't get that IT'S A JOKE! We're bashing the emo stereotype, not emos" Its A Joke. And You Gotta Be A Real Dumb Ass To Think That Its Not A Joke. I Mean Really? EMO'S ARE GREAT BUT SHES TRYING TO PROVE AN EFFING POINT.

  • i love this,i dont care what other ppl say,i think this vid is pretty cool as a joke,well done

  • This is the dumbest video ever. Emo people are just like everyone else. Except that they are often misunderstood. And not all emo people are like that. I fucking hate streotyping. Its the dumbest thing ever. And another thing the main reason why people turn emo is because the hate their life and everyone in it. I know because thats how i feel right now because my girlfriend just broke up with me for my best friend. So please think next time before you make a stupid ass video like this one.

  • ...meh, I thought it was kinda funny =D I don't get why you people are so touchy...

    And by the way, thanks for not putting the screaming bit in at the end of the song, it annoys me =P

  • wow that was extremely stupid i cant believe someone took time out their day to make this video and worse yet i cant believe i took time out of my life to watch it thats two minutes and fifty two seconds i will never get back

  • did your mom kill you for dyeing your hair black?

    XD

    random!

    lol
