I find the pathetic argument between the posers funnier than the graph and the video. I think goth and emo aren't derived from music. They're stereo types. People stereo type you for how you look and how you dress. If you can act "emo" or "goth" and people say you are, then cool. You fell into the pathetic human nature of generalizing and stereo typing.
