It is sometimes hard for us mortals to distinguish the difference between Goth kids and Emo kids. All we know is that they both share a common passion for the color black, a mutual distaste for their parents and society, and an fatal allergy for everything that is considered normal and within the norm of things. To shed some further light on today’s troubled youth, we have collected the ten most obscure photos of Emo kids as well as Goth kids we could find. Not to ridicule or make fun of, but more to observe and understand.
First, let’s identify the true characteristics of an Emo Kid. We could settle with linking to the appropriate Wikipedia page, but will instead include this photo explaining the epitomy of an Emo Kid.

Most of them wasn’t emo – they were metal, goth or juggalos. Still funny though.
wtf is a juggalo
google is your friend.
So lemme see… Insane Clown Posse, make up, hip hop…. Come again, WTF is a Juggalo ???
it don’t matter if they’re goth, icp, metal, emo or goa: they’re besically the SAME 90′s-00′s subculture.
If you can’t find the answers to easy questions on google… you *might* be a Juggalo….
10, 9, 8, 7 5 4 and 3 aren’t even emo, they’re goths and juggalos….
who cares.. they all look like complete idiots. and you probably look/dress just as dumb
how would you know the difference??
you can tell by the clothing they wear. If it is a rock band on the shirt, they are usually goth. If it says ICP or has a hatchet man anywhere, they are a juggalo/juggalette. If they are males and dress like a female and look constantly sad, they are emo.
To answer the question “what is a juggalo”…
A juggalo is someone who follows the Hatchet Label groups. They consider other listeners family. Not all juggalos dress like that. (I know, i’m a juggalette) Most of us lead normal lives, and post our hatchet gear in a way that only a juggalo/juggalette will recognize us as family. Remember this one thing…if you see more than one person with any type of hatchet gear (including shirts from ICP, Twizted, Dark Lotus, Tech9 etc) it is best to keep your opinion closed. Some tend to be very aggressive.
I like how SHUT UP thinks they matter in society.
yeah- i agree.. lol.. there were only 3 emo kids.. but its still awesome!
most of them werent emos…
but i liked it anyway
#1 emo kid was smexi!
Many of these pictures do not show emo kids or how they call you emo freaks ..
number 9 , 10looking more emo
there were only 3 emo kids.
I stand corrected Brick. It is a glorious mix of emos, goths and other subcultured kids
A hardcore emo kid list to come!
i dont think that hardcore and emo should be used in the same sentence.
funny, just what I was about to say. lol
That’s because you don’t realize they grew out of the same scene.
mostly mall goths and nu-metallers.
This emo girl looks like gollum! http://cheezburger.com/View.aspx?aid=3191417856
ian!
I WANT TO KNOW RIGHT NOW, WHERE YOU GOT THAT IMAGE, AND WHERE IT IS ORIGINALLY HOSTED.
dude, i dont know. search on google images on emo kids or something. It’s all over the web.
well there were a billion fake myspaces that used them, i had a blog with a lissst of them
Ian,
You should be proud that the website used a picture of you as a diagram for how to spot a douchebag.
@GXSAS
ooow, really? look at your picture. gay!
some of them are not emos? Look stupid anyway, though
Most of these are Mallgoths. And these pics are everywhere on the internet.
i like the emo explaning photo most xD
Seriously, what the hell is a juggalo? Kids who are really into nu-metal (metal with lot’s of rap that is usually despised by both people who like rap and metal)?
EMO=GAY
A juggalo is mainly a strong follower of the music produced by Insane Clown Posse or any other music produced by their record company called Psychopathic Records.
My girfriend is the last one. Fer sure.
XDDDDDDDDD
this made me laugh so hard
“Slightly INsane Emo KId”
BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAA!
Most of the images didn’t load for me even with multiple forced refreshes. All the ones that did load, well, none were emo.
hu cares if they’re not all emo?? i couldn’t even tell coz they all looks just as STUPID. hahaha
goth did this better 15/20 years ago
Even ten . . . *sigh*
You’re a self proclaimed juggalo. Anything you say is immediately discredited.
Retards…
Emo, goth, juggalos…all retards.
If this is the future, I suggest we do some .50 caliber house cleaning.
…………W.T.F. no wonder people have abortions!
emo 6 The “I Borrow My Mom’s Makeup” Emo Kid has underoath Shirt.. some people FAIL to dress emo/juggallo/jugelletes whatever..
and I LOVE The Slightly Insane Emo Kid Funny face.. keep that face up haha LMAo
I see ordinary people who dream the same dreams and who wished to be loved and accepted. It doe’nt matter what they look like they still have feelings and hurt when cut or disappointed. We are all loved for who we are, because it;s whats inside that counts. Merry Christmas!
wow… these guys are all pretty messed up… most arent even emo… i wouldnt even categorize them. it looks like they took a shot at tryin to be something epic and missed… im sorry
anyways, the last one is the only one i think hit the look of emo, and emo isnt bad if you do it right [[which 90% of the ones claiming to be emo cant do]]… but then again, hes just acting like a normal teenager right? i know my parents still annoy me after too long. lawlz
“Epitome.”
In my day (I graduated high school 7 years ago) we called these kids “goth”. When did this change?! Emo was a totally different thing back then. You kids and your lack of past trends/sub-culture knowledge!
lol
…and these are the same individuals who will complain that no one will give them a job.
still trying to figure out how the hell the consider 10 only “slightly obese. that is disgusting. please stop making our country look even fatter.
Wasting your time judging people is just as stupid as you apparently think the way these people dress are. I would not dress this way but I am not going to judge these people. I wouldn’t go out of my way to talk to them, but at the same time I wouldn’t go out of my way to talk to the author of this article.
all of you are wrong. they’re all GDIs.
Well said lol. All this debate over whether or not they’re emo……it doesn’t matter, they’re GDIs lol
Bet they wear black cargo shorts
The internet is a breeding ground for aggression.
Reason, people don’t have to back up their arguments with stone cold violence-wimps
So the easiest thing to do is just chill out, lets all try and get a long and guys/girls—–wear wtf you want-coz it doesnt matter
PS, the hula-hooping goth reminds me off a friend-Ross, AKA CONAN THE BARBARIAN.
i want to know how to dress emotionally. if i wore tight band t-shirts along with tight jeans am i an emotional dresser now?!?!?! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol this comment was for funnies, but there is SOME meaning in what i said.
Ok.. number 9 should be # 1
“we are the freakin’ goths”…
Calling a goth an emo. Why not? They’re already permanently pissed off.
So what’s the difference between goth and emo?
Don’t get ‘em started troll!
Basically to answer your question quickly and painlessly;
Emos hate themselves and everyone around them. Often characterised by too-tight clothing, lots of bracelets and classic “emo fringe”. Don’t poke them too hard, they may start crying.
Goths……well, they’re just permanently pissed at everyone else around them. Like emos, except listen to a bit more hardcore music, and prefer baggy black trousers to their sister’s skintight jeans. Don’t poke them too hard, they may hit you. Hard.
One other difference I would like to mention, Goths more mourn than hate. Yes they are pissed off, but mostly because of the rampant stupidity and ignorance they see in the world. If you want to poke them make sure they are cool with you first. Goths can be quite fun in a burn-down-the-barn kind of way and are awesome to take on camping trips (provided you can provide nicotine, fire and libations in my experience).
Dude, they’re not one in the same. Get those fingers of yours on the keyboard and do some simple research.
goths paint their fingernails black…. emo’s use a hammer
the one in the car nd teh 1st one was smexy …..bof of them <.<
Number 1 is hot..!
Wonder if the “m” hand gesture in #2 is for his nigguh Mcdonalds?
Goths…. Juggalos…. I think this list is at most 5/10 actual emo kids.
Bob Barker was right…you *should* spay & neuter your pets.
