19 memes that nailed emo culture

Everyone thinks being emo is just a phase, but you know it's more than that

Not everyone gets it

Some do…

But either way, it's just part of who you are

And it plays a part in every part of your life, even relationships

Hair plays an important role in emo folklore

There are a lot of hair jokes

Like, really a lot

And eyeliner, too

Even if it doesn't always turn out the way you had hoped

But really it's all about the music

And how much we love it

Like, love it so much it affects every interaction

And sometimes outsiders might not understand your spending habits

Or commitment to your aesthetic

But it doesn't matter because you know the pure joy of seeing your favoite band live

And getting that perfect memento to remember the moment

Or how your heart skips a beat when someone says your favorite band's name

But regardless of how others might view our culture, you know it's a lifelong commitment
