Second Generation Goth.

Hooked on dark and sorrow so to speak. (Dark dress, black lipstick etc).

Emo is a style of rock music which describes several independent variations of music with common stylistic roots.

I am assuming the “Emo” is short for “Emotional” as in highly emotional usually in a sad or depressed way. The kids who wear all black and act like they are ultra depressed all of the time... then again my take could be completely off base since I am an out of touch old fuddy duddy.

Skip down to the section on “Fashion and Stereotype”.

Go easy on them, they’re going to be paying our social security someday... I’m planning to develop a taste for Alpo myself. :-)

A goth that cries a lot.

Take a goth, take out the angry and dark, and replace with sad and mopey. They think everything sucks. Their life sucks, their job sucks, their school sucks, their parents suck, and most of all, they think THEY suck.

Basically they’re about as much fun as a steel wool enema.
