    I’m a millennial, and I still dress all emo even in my 30’s. My 20 year old coworker even complimented my black skinny jeans with zippers in random places the other day. No reason to stop loving your late teen/early 20’s aesthetic! Don’t let the world crush your creativity, do you and to hell with everyone’s opinions!

      Kids these days trying to take away our skinny jeans! Never I say!

      We’ll see who is laughing when it snows and their ankles are frozen. Suppose they all have to learn somehow

        Skinny Jeans forever. I can’t imagine not having a few pairs at home. They are the most comfortable pants I own!

        At 35 I continue to wear home made stenciled t-shirts and jeans I cut into shorts. If my boss doesn’t like it he can go break a hip about it, how I look has no bearing on how well I do my job.

      Hell yeha, as long as you’re not harming anyone, just do whatever the hell you want without thinking twice.

    The use of the word aesthetic as a verb in the last several years blows my mind.

    Anyhow, yeah, we dress different when we’re kids. I don’t think too many people are shocked by this.

    Sometimes I think that since I still really love goth chicks I haven’t changed that much since the 00s

    But then I remember that over that time frame goth chicks went from edgy rebellious teenagers in a ton of makeup to moms in their 30s with a wicked sense of humor that wear a lot of black. They still deal weed and hate authorities though.

      Watching my once fully goth and punk friends raise kids is odd but also wonderful, knowing that they’re passing their zero tolerance for societies’ bullshit on to their kids (as best they can, considering what we’re up against) is heart warming.
      Wouldn’t want to do it myself though lol

    God, I miss that time. Closest you get to that aesthetics nowadays still is some forms of visual kei (stuff like lynch.), but it’s a different vibe.

    Im an emo kid

    Nonconforming as can be

    You’d be nonconforming too if you looked just like me

    Edit: revisiting these lyrics, this song is an important time capsule
