It's a common misconception that emos live in their parents' basements. Most emos actually live in ranch-style houses or apartments, and therefore have no basements in which to sulk. Instead, their solace comes from a blanket unceremoniously affixed to their bedroom window frame.

I wonder if this actually happened to any kids from the 80's?
Or if this eye doc bothered to check before coming out as an idiot.

Idiots. if you want to darken a room you tape aluminum foil to the windows, not a blanket.

We're talking about a group of people who actively look for reasons to be sad. I don't think common sense is within their purview.

Tony Hawk styled his hair that way and he's the raddest skateboarder of all time.

What if they just flipped the haircuts once in a while?

I don't think that particular hair-do was really around in the '80's.
It's fairly recent I believe.

Emos still exist? I thought they all evolved into hipsters.

Also, attacks by a scissor-wielding Mitt Romney

The solution:

The 80's Flock of Seagulls haircut would like a word you with you farking youngsters.

/get off my lawn
//farking cockbites.

Who cares how they style their hair. Just make sure they are video game junkies in the future.

Oh great, a lazy eye thread.

As someone who has had to put up with having a lazy eye for 30 years, I can tell you the emo are not prepared to deal.

Early 80s anime characters had that haircut and they're not having any problems.

shiat. Not at the same time I hope. I mean, think about it.

stealingisbad: Emos still exist? I thought they all evolved into hipsters.

If only hipsters would start cutting themselves. Most emos I've encountered had arms that were totally wrecked with healed cuts and old burns.

Pretty much anything "new" youth thing is a slight variation on something from the 70s. Just be nice to the kids and admit that their totally rebels.

Aluminum foil worked great for my college apartment without air conditioning

Just like it did to the skaters from when I was a kid?

I'm not sure what Canadia was doing in the 80's, but when I was a kid hair over one eye was not uncommon at all. I did it, to my mother's warnings. Never bothered me.

Sure I did, that hair style just wasn't very prevalent in these parts (Toronto) in the 80s.
I remember seeing a few but not nearly as much as these days. I think maybe there are so many people walking around with hair like that because it got big with the emo crowd and then skipped right over to the the Bieber Generation.
A "Double Whammy", if you will.

Well....thinking back on those days I was pretty much wasted through that entire decade so I just may not have noticed, or forgotten. Now my curiosity is piqued.
I'm gonna have to ask a few friends about it so I can get some closure on this.

It may have happened to me. My right eye does not function as well as the left. I can only describe its vision as being like swiss cheese, but when you try to look at the hole --its gone. I've considered wearing an eye-patch over the good eye to try and force the other eye to catch up.

I have no problem with this as long as they see how to serve my pizza.

No, she was missing half her face, and Hollywood wouldn't spring for the Phantom mask.

The assymetrical bangs over one eye thingee? Hellz yeah it was wildly popular in the eighties.

I gotta ask, and I apologize if this comes across as crass...

But do your sight pictures line up with mental balancing, or do you maintain two separate images you consciously have to manage?

And I think the hair-over-one-eye look is sexy as hell sometimes. Case in point:

Feh. Our elementary teachers were telling us that about long bangs in the early 70's. I don't think that is what caused my bad eyesight though.

Nobody has mentioned the most amazing lazy eye artist ever? With a haircut "sometimes covering one eye".

But is that the hair style being sexy as hell, or just Olivia Wilde? Because there is much she can get away with.

Knows what to do about long bangs on effeminate gaywad teens.

Totally beat me to it.

For which I give you my thanks.

Dares Romney to just try it.

Emos? What the hell are those? It's 2012 dog, what are you talking about?

When I used to watch The Cutting Edge on MTV, I used to wonder if constantly flicking your hair out of your eye caused a neck injury.

Yeah, I came in here to say "repeat from 1985". I remember being warned that the bangs-over-one-eye style would screw with your vision but my eyes seemed to have survived the hairstyle. Back then it was big, big bangs, often, but not always, as part of a big, big style over all. Crimping or perming optional, backcombing mandatory. So much Final Net hairspray that when you finally washed it it came out in icky sticky balls. The eye-blocking bangs could be New Wave, Punk or Goth, depending on context and colour.

The preppy Big Bangs went straight up like a fin, often with matching side fins springing from the temples so when you saw a girl face on it looked like Big Hair, but when seen in profile, if she didn't use a mirror to attend to the volume at the back it was a thin, hilarious disk.

Oh the eighties.

A great subway memory...two emo boys and a girl in a tight group. The emos were trying to impress a girl by flipping the hair out of their eyes every five seconds or so....until one time they knocked their heads together. They looked sheepish, or as sheepish as emo twats can look.

This is why you should not let optomitrists have sharp pointy things.
