Metalheads, punks, rockabillys and gangsters unite to destroy emo. Emo kids stage rally to defend their right to have bangs covering one eye.

As a side note: when I was in HS emo was used to define bands like Sunny Day Real estate. It was always a stupid label so I'm glad it ended up meaning something different entirely, but was this the case? Was the "genre" co-opted by a much suckier psuedo-goth trend?

Well, it probably would have been before The Onion took a more absurdist approach.
Actually, now that I think about it, what is more absurd than Mexican "rockabillys" fucking up emo kids?
Complaint withdrawn.

It is pretty absurd, especially when you consider that many of these Mexican rockabillys may well be enormous Morrissey fans, who was a forerunner of emo if ever there was one.
Life...life...I know it's got its ups and downs.
