    Life is vague, and the future seems to getting blurry as the days go by in each passing second. The world is a dark scary place with mysteries that can't be solved with the naked eye. Humans... are unjust and savage in nature.

    Blah, blah, blah. The list goes on. But in truth, none of us ever dealt with [i]real[/i] pain and suffering. Our mind tricks us into thinking we are.
    This is a nice artice -- behind with good intentions -- but it's still a little misinformed.

    The word [i]emo[/i] has nothing to do with [i]emotional[/i]. Matter of fact, it never started out as a fad. The word [i]emo[/i] was short for [i]emotive hardcore[/i]; a music genre that was born and died out around the early 90s', due to their hyper emotive vocals. (Search : [i]Fugazi[/i] and [i]Sunny Day Real Estate[/i]).

    You are further supporting the faddish stereotype for even mentioning cutting, and the article of clothing to conceal those scars.
