Replying to DEAR EMO, PLEASE DIE!!!

I know belongs in the non-ski gab but wtf, the season's over and I want to rant.

I don't really have a problem with skiers wearing tighter pants or whatever, each to his own on the mtn.

However, it seems like the ranks of emo kids at my college are growing at an alarming rate, it's like a damn infestation of boys wearing girl jeans, girls looking like boys, thrift shirts, bad haircuts w several colors, a caribiner w their keys on it hanging from a beltloop, vans w skulls on them and that "ohh life is so hard being me" attitude as they flip the hair out of their face and smoke a flavored cigarrette.

HOW LONG IS THIS SHIT GOING TO LAST??? It's one of the worst forms of conformity right now in my opinion.

At first I was like, wtf ya know, some emo music is cool and you can do whatever you like, but somehow, the whole culture started to annoy me.

Here's the main reason emo SUCKS. These kids are claiming aspects of a retro and post punk culture they have no roots in, it's just being packaged and sold to them by the Hot Topic. They already killed punk, I hope emo dies next.

OK rant over. Is this happening anywhere else???
