the ugly earring

Emo Glasses:

Very ugly, thick, black glasses worn by trendy fans of emo music. They resemble traditional “nerd” glasses and many emo fans think it’s cool to pretend that they are nerds because they think they are being a nonconformist. However, since emos now make up the vast majority of people on planet earth, doing so is very conformist and insulting to real nerds who toil endlessly to keep your computers working.
