The DL: Emo in One Minute

Tired of people name-dropping rock genres and not having a clue what they're talking about? We sure are, so we put together the first in an ongoing series of edumacational, one-minute videos that'll drop a knowledge bomb on all unsuspecting ignoramuses. The first out of the gate is the much-maligned Emo, a genre that arguably jumped the shark almost a decade ago, yet continues to lurch onward like a zombie. You know, a zombie that whines like a bitch and wears its little sister's pants.

'pet is the hotist boy in the world and he is an awsome kutar player whenever i get a magasin i get one about him'

To this genna person, reread the first sentence where it talks about people not knowing what the hell theyre talking about. He can't play a guitar for shit, a man with some of the tips of his fingers cut off (true rockers know him) can do a better job at a guitar than he could. Listen to actual music, instead of making love to your emo fantasy man poster who are 30 and love the slicer.

Right if mr wentz is so brilliant and you're all not stereotypes then why is mr wentz wearing the guyliner and his sisters trousers? Lets face it only stereotypes would lick mr wentz's ass like that.

ok, yes, we all know pete is cute. get over it. pretty much all of you 12 to 14 year old teeny boppers who think the music you listen to is good are probably still listening to the 'from under the cork tree' album from several years ago and or know only the chorus from 'this aint a scene' are not aware that fall out boys does indeed have 5 albums, not just 2, as you most likely think. so basically all i'm saying is like pete for his musical talent, and not his tight pants and guyliner. and stop thinking you're the shit for liking fall out boy.

Finally, someone names emo bands that ARE in fact, emo. Fugazi, Jawbreaker, Texas is the Reason...I've enjoyed all these guys for years. It's sad to see the new definition of emo, but I really liked the video. It made me laugh...and go listen to the Get Up Kids.

wow you guys have problems...pete is not hot and you guys need to get something better to talk about than 'HOW HAWT PETE WENTZ IZ' just chill out guys...and oh my god does anyone know how to spell correctly? because i think i got stupider from reading all of these horrible comments. i really hope that these comments are a joke and that you people are being illiterate monkeys on purpose. if not then i am really scared to where this world will be in 10 years. and don't call me a 'fall out boy hater' because i'm not. i've been with them since the beginning and will be til the end. i'm sure half of you kids that are saying HES SO HAWT are only 13 and just discovered fall out boy when thnks fr th mmrs came out. and even if you aren't and you're a legit fan then there's really NO reason so be saying OMG LYKE GUYZ PETE IS A HAWTTI!!!111!!shift1!! i'm sure half of you won't even read this because it's put together in complete sentences.

Is everyone leaving comments around 13 years old? It's funny that you continue to talk about Pete Wentz and EMO. Seems like everyone kind of missed the point. hhmmm....
