If it is a fence. So cute. As for Elmo: no idea. And for emo: ask nick. Oh, and I commented on your older posts, just so you know. My parents were in town and I hardly touched the computer!nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08019388791509297822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5177495177779989895.post-33955705018614348372010-06-07T17:16:51.007-05:002010-06-07T17:16:51.007-05:00Here is what the internet has for me . . .

The other is a label people use to describe a group. The group of teens that use the label say that emo is short for emotional, but the term originally came from the Indie music style called Emotive Hardcore. It is a sub-genre of punk. <br /><br />The People:<br />It is a label people give themselves for being apathetic and emotional to an extreme (usually miserable), but wallowing in it and not wanting it to change. They tend to feel they are misunderstood and that life is not fair to them in specific. It is in fashion with some of the group to cut themselves and wear heavy eye make-up. The hair cuts tend to have awkward sharp angles and are often glossed. Many of the guys wear very tight jeans, often women's. The girls tend to lean more towards late 70's to early 80's fashion.<br /><br />And I agree with Melissa, perhaps it's just because she doesn't always smile in pictures and has big beautiful eyes.<br /><br />I definitely wouldn't call her Emo though. She's much too happy!<br /><br />And yeah, I don't know how Elmo got so much more popular than the other Sesame Street characters.Mimi Colletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15879880111595536353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5177495177779989895.post-61277246667191443362010-06-07T10:18:06.203-05:002010-06-07T10:18:06.203-05:00The only reason she might be considered emo is bec...The only reason she might be considered emo is because she doesn't like to smile in pictures. From what I understand (because emo came along AFTER I graduated from high school), it's just a new word for punk. Teens full of angst who wear all black, with the black eyeliner, and the hair that covers all but one eye, like the sister in Incredibles.<br /><br />And Elmo's crazy, right? We don't even watch Sesame Street so I'm not sure when Jack-Jack discovered him, but he likes him, too! Elmo is cute, though...MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12118706847956725360noreply@blogger.com
