For those of us who grew up in a household with dads named Dave, classic rock tunes on the surround sound, and grungy Sundays, it was almost inevitable to become a little bit emo in your younger years. Whether you rebelled against the 'system', fancied stickers starring a bad-mannered rabbit, or just liked your hair parted down the side, being emo-ish was more than just having a Tumblr page– you likely found yourself hurled into a world of irreversible black hair dye, geometric star tattoos, and putting 'rawr' somewhere on your Myspace profile.

Naturally, every teenager on vacation with their parents was desperate to prove how edgy they were, so that usually encompassed a new kind of music that was somehow familiar (guitars, drums, etc), but possessed a quality that existentially drove mom and dad insane. Lucky for you, the pop-punk era was born and the world would never be the same again.

So if you've got a grey hair or two but still like to jam out to the songs of your moody pre-teen days, these elder emo memes will have you feeling nostalgic and ready to spend $600 for the nose-bleed seats to see your favorite band on their come-back tour in 2024!
