And maybe for the sake of it?

Oi, no double-standards on hypocracy, ok! You say you like some emo music but hate all emo mentalities, right? Well isn't the music a product of an emo mentality? Then surely you like some emo mentality too?

disregarding the fact that Fall Out Boy hate to be considered Emo, and in fact half of their stuff takes the piss out of teh scene, of course.

Thing with having a name like this is you feel like you have to defend things, even if you actually know very little about the subject :P What I need is a name and a number..

Check out Senses Fail - The Irony of Dying on your Birthday. You won't like it, but do it anyway.
