early fob gives me such heart eyes….like two 16 year olds meeting in a bookstore and running off with Cool Fucked Up Local Celebrity Pete Wentz (who quit the hardcore scene announcing to everybody he found a kid that was his golden ticket to take over the world, and patrick had seen this as an opportunity to impress The Legendary Pete Wentz) in a van that was so hot the plastic on the interior windows melted and the mirrors were duct taped on….pissing on each others laundy, beating each other up, keeping their porn out in the open….eventually meeting up with petes uninterested radical anarchist hardcore straightedge friend….i need a moment i love fall out boy

Ok but can we talk about how emo, as a genre, defied gender roles in a big way? Like, everything about the culture, from the guys wearing makeup and womens’ skinny jeans, to the way they got unabashedly emotional in spite of the “men aren’t supposed to cry” narrative they’d obviously been socialized with, was just this complete “fuck you” to the idea that there’s a certain way to be a “man”. 

And a lot of their detractors called them “girly” or “gay”. And they didn’t give a fuck! Fall Out Boy has a whole song entitled “Gay Is Not A Synonym for Shitty”, which referenced a famous Pete Wentz quote, where he basically said that if you thought his band sucked, to just say it sucked, and not be a “homophobic asshole” about it. 

And, then, geez, My Chemical Romance took it a step further, and Gerard Way outright kissed one of his bandmates at concerts purely to infuriate homophobes who were at his shows.

 A lot of these bands were openly for LGBT rights, for womens’ rights. I remember one instance where some band MCR was touring with asked women to flash their tits in exchange for backstage passes. And Gerard was so horrified by this, and told his female fans to “spit in the faces” of misogynists in the rock scene. 

Like, god, these bands were so progressive. And they still are. Right after the Pulse tragedy, Brendon Urie literally danced around in a pride flag and told his queer fans what they meant to him. Pete Wentz said that “Uma Thurman” was meant to show his female fans that they could be “badass”, too. And Gerard pretty much admitted in an interview to somewhat identifying with the label “nonbinary”. 

That’s the most lasting impact that emo is going to have. Showing fans of all genders that there’s nothing wrong with being whoever the fuck you are, that there’s no specific way to be a man or woman. And, god, I just fucking love that.

i’ll never get over the fact that there’s a movie called “snakes on a plane” and in that movie there’s a line that is, verbatim, “ive had it with these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane”.

that is absolutely bonkers. that’s ridiculous. that’s like making a movie called “gators in the sewer” and having someone in the movie say “im getting really sick and tired of these fucking gators in the sewer”

the funny part is that the alternate title was something mundane like “flight 93″ and samuel l. jackson made the director change it back to “snakes on a plane” bc he said it was the only reason he auditioned

oh my god, the youth have forgotten that there was a huge viral phenomenon when this movie was being filmed, where the internet got wind of the working title snakes on a plane, and a) demanded that title be made official, b) CAME UP WITH the line about these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane, and c) GOT THE LINE INCLUDED IN THE ACTUAL MOVIE

You forgot the part where three up and coming bands in the emo scene collaborated to write a song called Snakes On a Plane and filmed a music video of themselves smuggling snakes onto a plane, and it practically launched all of their careers.

#hows is this a post of shit i lived thru and yet all of the bandom facts are wrong#IT WAS 3 BANDS AND GABE WHO WAS BETWEEN BANDS#THIS IS HOW HE FORMED COBRA#THE SOUNDS WERE NOBODY’s EMO I CANNOT EVEN FUCKING BELIEVE#SAMUEL JACKSON IS IN THE VIDEO IT WASNT LIKE A NORMAL 10 DOLLAR DECAYDANCE SHITSHOW#All my life i had to fight#and i gotta be out here yelling about bandom in 2018#bandom never dies#i saw this goddamn movie in theaters (via browniet)

FIRST OF ALL *insane gesturing with a solo cup* it was POP PUNK. (NEVER FORGET THAT COBRA STARSHIP HAD A KEYTAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) SECOND OF ALL, these ridiculous motherfuckers got involved because sweet sweet lil Adam ‘Sisky Business’ ‘i can’t believe he now plays for CRJ’ Siska wanted to submit Bill Beckett’s whining about bad reviews aka Black Mamba for the soundtrack. INSTEAD WE GOT THAT WORK OF ART YOU SEE ABOVE YOU.

I could give you a 10-page dissertation and complete oral history as to why this tweet is earth shatteringly important, but all this girl innocently assumes is that Gerard maybe listens to The Used
