»Ever wonder what EMO is?«

How to be a Xanga comment-whore/superstar.

Just this little thing I observed reading everyone's Xangas all the time.

First, you have a sexay webcam picture of yourself, or preferably, several. If you want to appear hot but depressed, even better. Post them with ridiculously high exposure and make everything seem bright. Make your skin pale and your features dark. Be emo. Like so:


Next, put a touching short story or a snippet of poetry about how depressing your life is. Or perhaps a big big hint that you need more friends. Like so:

I guess I'm going, but I'm still trying to decide who to ask. Haven't bought my ticket (was going to today--but had to run after Edwin because I forgot to put something on the bulletin notice that I had just handed him for him to drop off), but will sometime this week.

Who should I ask? *Thinking hard*

(Note: The above entry and all subsequent example entries are true entries dated from a combination of entries in November of 2003)

Then, edit your entry and wax lyrical about the terrible outcome of the situation.

Edit: I got rejected for Homecoming. This sucks.

Next, the most essential part of this, is that you must put sad emo lyrics at the end of the entry to make everyone sorry for you! This is very important. Like so:

I don't want to go home for Christmas this year.
I don't want to see my family.
I just want to stay at school for this winter break.
I just want to stay at school with my best friend, Ron.
Note: The above song is from "Wizard Chess" by Harry and the Potters.

Congratulations! You now have a great entry that's a good candidate for many comments and eProps! You popular person, you! You are sure to forever win at t3h intarweb!
