IMHO, No, emo's are lower than Chav's. But then, you don't get them in Melboune (Chavs, plenty of emo's here).
Their like wogs with the ethnicity replaced by hats, if that helps. Do a Google image hunt and you'll get the idea.

a Chav is the term for a common scum found in england and now globally,
they wear shite like fake gold (lots of it) burbery clothing ( normally fake or from back of a lorry ) and go around in groups Saying "dik'ed, OI, and wooaaahhh" Alot. they hate "sweaty's" (aka anyone with long hair, better taste in music than them and wear black clothing of anysort"
they have the musical intrests equal to AG only alot worse :umad: ( soz AG )

and they normally try and "drive" around in "blinged" up cars making them 1.look shite
and
2. make it sound like a broken lawnmower.

i hope ive covered everything ^_^

How it works in Newcastle:

Chavs:
Idiots with identical, shitty clothing, ugly jewellery who are either terrorising people who are not chavs, pretending they're hard by harassing small children in extremely large groups and spend the rest of their time getting drunk on street corners. Often drive scooters or cars with exhausts to make them overly loud and look overly shity.

Emo Kids:
Idiots with identical clothing, ugly hair styles who are either bitching about their lives, snogging people of the same sex, pretending they're NOT emo or getting drunk on one particular piece of grass in the centre of town. Generally stay in their own little groups anyway so I've had no problems with them.

Basically they're the same thing in the end - drunken, tasteless fools.
However, I've had more problems with Chavs including getting jumped on and a broken jaw resulting, although I can actually get along with the majority of them with only mild comments about my hair. Emo kids I've no problem with at all as long as they generally don't bother me at all unlike moronic Chavs who will take every chance they can to shout 'Goth' or 'Sweaty' (terms from other Citys ftw) or whatever it is they use where you're from.

Pyth, if you have ever heard the term "wigger", and know what it means, think that, except 'Britonized'. (no offense to the members of the Revora community who are from Britain.)

OLD SIG
When history witnesses a great change Razgriz reveals itself,
first as a dark demon. As a demon it uses it power to rain death upon the land,
and then it dies. However after a period of slumber Razgriz returns
As the demon sleeps, man turns on man.
Its own blood, and madness soon cover the earth.
From the depths of despair awaken the Razgriz.
Its raven wings ablaze in majestic light.
Amidst the eternal waves of time
From a ripple of change shall the storm rise
Out of the abyss peer the eyes of a demon
Behold the Razgriz, its wings of black sheath
The demon soars through the dark skies
Fear and Death trail its shadow beneath
Until Men united wield a hallowed sabre
In Final Reckoning, the beast is slain.
Razgriz intrerpretation

I saw someone in my college wearing one of those caps the other day. I was this close to taking it from him and stomping it into the dirt. Those caps just look so damn stupid... or maybe it was the idiot wearing it...

This is a chav according to Wikipedia.

Emo according to wikipedia.

This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Andre 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

Wikipedia denotes the etymology as "Council Housed and Violent."

I heard it was "Council Housed Adolescent Vermin."

Either way :lol: You know a Chav by the burberry or hoodie jackets they wear, and by the fact they're fathers of three by their fourteenth birthday. Also by the stupid-ugly fake gold clown pendants they wear.

Emos aren't as bad. They're Goths with more poetry and faux-introspectivity, and without the eyeliner, the clothes, or the music. Generally they're too busy committing suicide and writing crappy depressing poetry to cause much nuisance to anyone else.

Chavs are definitely the worst.

How many emo's does it take to change a lightbulb?
None, they just sit in the dark and cry :lol:
And you forgot to mention the hair. An Emo's hair is just as offencive as a Chav's Corsa.
And have you never been bottled by an emo? :cool: They just whine on and on about them having not been bottled, and you just end up thinking "Jeez, next time hit me harder"
More emo definitions
And chav definitions

Emo = Emule

What is ever one's problem with emos?
they don't hurt you, and generally don't cause trouble...leave them alone, otherwise they'll cry more, write more shit songs that people will like, then become emo themselves...and thus the cycle continues...

Now Chavs, they are the assholes...they'll walk up to you in the street (no matter of age, gender, size or anything like that) with a group of their mates...depending on what you say and how you act, you can walk away with only being threatened, or you can get into a really unfair fight...I'm currently trying to classify what works for the situation...if it's 1 or 2 chavs...if you tell them to get to fuck and generally act agressive, they'll fuck off...if it's a large group...act slightly scared...but not too scared and remember, i said act...if you are actually imtimidated, they'll sense it and probably attack, they're like animals.
Just remember, if you have a good taste in music (rock, metal, punk etc) then avoid McDonalds, KFC and burger king

My problem with emos is that they just act all depressed and stuff. Their just annoying. IF LIFE SUCKS SO BADLY JUST FUCKING KILL YOURSELF ALREADY. WE DO NOT NEED TO LISTEN TO YOUR "MY LIFE SUCKS" AND "I CUT MYSELF TO REEASE THE PAIN" BULLSHIT. WE ALS DO NOT NEED TO LISTEN TO YOUR SHITTY SELF-HATE POETRY. *faints from anger*

Seriously... I hate emos like that... at least those who spread their stuff around.

I hate emos them too. Grr.
Hate = Strong feeling of dislike, often brought on by emos or mime artists.
Emo = Someone who, due to bad hairstyling errors, cannot get a shag. And Cry about it.
Grr = Angry sound
