I think many people sneer at emo's because most of them face the same problems as the rest of us, but don't seem very good at it. It's kinda hard to imagine emo's occurring anywhere where there isn't a pampered culture, where no real problems exist and people dwell on self-important trivia like "I'm a teenager and no-one understands me", issues not so prevalent in say, a warzone or third-world country, where people lose legs or families and just kinda get on with it. Emo to me says "I want to be an individual like everyone else", and "I need to grow the f@ck up and see what real people do in actual tough situations".
Not aimed at you, you just have a silly fringe (and a sense of humour) from what I can see. More aimed at anyone who thinks My Chemical Romance don't just write good songs, they "speak to them" (Whenever I see that singer do his wobbly-eyed "look at me I'm mad I am" bit I just laugh like an evil drain)
