Are any other mid-late twenties DiS types who were actually around when emo existed gripped with a sudden urge to rant and rave about Knapsack, Mineral, The Promise Ring, American Football....Christ, even Saves the Day....just anything that may persuade people that the current wave of Complaint Rock/Diet Goth has nothing to do with emo?!
*and relax*
I feel your pain
my physio described her daughter as 'an emo' luckily my face was stuck in a hole in a table
its actually insane
its similar to if hepburn had a come back and people started calling rocky teenage girls 'riot grrls'
Good analogy
that said, when I was into Fat/Epitaph bands in my mid teens I do remember older street punks types protesting that 'this isn't proper punk' and they were right.
The Fauxmo/MTVmo thing has gone too far though...I feel it's time to invoke the might of the Trades Descriptions Act!
KNAPSACK!!!!!!
wanna marry?
Only if we could then divorce
...and tell everyone about it on Live Journal?!
Deal.
um....you cool with being the 'woman'?
Fine with me..........
no doubt you're all into gender equality...can we get his and his broken heart tattoos?!
Yes.
