"I Must be Emo" Angers Emo Crowd

I Must Be Emo is a YouTube phenomenon that was posted some time ago. It has generated serious dissent among emo fans. The lyrics to the chorus are as follows:

Stop my breathing and slit my throat
I must be emo
I don't jump around when I go to shows
I must be emo

I'm dark, and sensitive with low self-esteem
The way I dress makes every day feel like Halloween
I have no real problems but I like to make believe
I stole my sister's mascara now
I'm grounded for a week.
Sulking and writing poetry are my hobbies
I can't get through a Hawthorne
Heights album without sobbing

You can see why this would make fans of the emo scene angry. I sent an email detailing my objections to the author of the video. If you love emo, I suggest you do the same.
