If you pass the emo quiz are you seriously emo or is it because you just say all of the right things even tho ur not confusing huh?

Uhmm...If you believe in stereotypes then you shouldn't need a quiz to tell you what you are. Quizzes stereotypical like "are you emo, punk, prep, jock, poser, nerd, ganster, indie, goth, etc." are really easy to get "Yes you are very emo" or something. Plus, if you consider yourself emo then you do. If you don't then why take the quiz? its really not that hard to figure. If your a mix of stereotypes then your an indie/ individual.
