PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS:
this image is over four years old. this is not what scene is anymore. this is not what emo is anymore. this is not even how i feel anymore. i was young and stupid, and the popularity of this image was, i believe, a direct result.

if you must leave a comment correcting me on what "scene/emo" is, keep this in mind. thanks.



ORIGINAL TEXT:

if you don't know what scene/emo is, you can only hope you never find out. for all the rest of you, see how guilty you are of committing the crime of becoming an emo kid. i spit in your direction, loser.

oh yeah, here's a nice handy scale:
0-10 - you're normal. stay away from coffee shops.
11-21 - perhaps that $20 belt from hot topic wasn't such a good investment. but you know that, right? you'll be fine as long as you keep telling everyone Souconys were real ghetto a few years ago.
22-32 - the scene has got a hold of you. please spend at least one weekend away from the friends that write lots of poetry.
33-43 - you've probably burned a "sad mix" for each of your friends and can fit your finger through your earlobe. there is no hope, just stop washing your shirts in hot water.
44-57 - cry me a river, build a bridge, and get over it.


i'm gonna lose so many watchers for this, i just know it.
no hard feelings guys, really ^_^
