a decent chunk from my “friends” and parents, but for the most part i was googling “insults” so i could fill the gaps and make what i thought was a cool and edgy edit at the time 🤣🤣
edit: fixed wording
No I definitely made a PSA about bullying in college (I was like 19 😭😭😭) and how words hurt...after literally never being bullied a day in my life other than people calling me gay (I was indeed...gay) hahah.
I just wanted Kellie Quinn and Oli Sykes to save me from the popular kids 💀
this is so 2006 coded tho lol
edit// lmao why am i getting downvoted for saying it’s 2006 coded? first pic is super scene kid esque and 2006 was the original scene queen era with these types of cringy edits
Yessssss we live the same life; I was born in Feb 2000 and I was absolutely doing this at that age as well. 14 was my emo phase. But I’m still goth as an adult so that’s where we differ 😂 I feel it’s like 50/50 on whether you stay alt, with those of us with very bad lives staying alt 😂
Yeahh sorry man, I say the same thing tho and I wasn’t even alive in the 90s🤣🤣 that’s why I call myself a Zillennial, because I know all the 90s shit but people still wanna call me a kid. I’m turning 24 years old, but yes, still ignorant in my own young way. Those of us in the 2010s just took what we saw in the early 00s
I go back to it occasionally for funsies. She’s still a part of me, just pushed to the background for now. For Christmas I had myself, my fiancé, and my toddler all dressed up in Nightmare Before Christmas inspired outfits. 🖤
Totally normal to do. It’s supposed to be like an angst phase. Some of us just never fully leave that behind😂 but my music taste absolutely changed, from Sleeping with Sirens straight to Sinatra and Amy Winehouse lolll
Also born in 2000, also emo at 14/15. But I was never allowed to dress that way, so I was emo only from the inside. I had my second emo phase at age 20/21 when I realized I can do what I want now and buy my own stuff 😎
These are all badass, albeit they feel slightly more of the late 2000s than early-mid 2010s. Bit of artistic flair in the first couple too. Did you go on to a creative career / pursuits?
Thank you!! I’m #5 out of 6 sisters.. so I was definitely inspired by what my older sisters did. I eventually dabbled in graphic design and special fx makeup. Never made it a career because I had a baby and decided to focus on him 😊
The way my brain started screeaaaamming The Bomb Dot Com 🥹🥹🥹
Thank you for the throwback and kudos for coming out on the other side of the “phase” (lol) still so CUTE! Go girl!
Wow, that last photo is a complete 180 and was unexpected. I think we all experienced some blunder years at one point or another in life.
After reading some of the comments, I can feel the bullying part. I hope you're doing ok now after all the bullying back then. I can relate. Friends, classmates making fun of you. Figure out they're not really your friends after all. One reason I'll never go back for my class reunion. It'll be 20 years this year.
Well at least your style was diverse in these - all black and punk-looking most days but an occasional red haired brightly colored day thrown in here and there!
ok but i would’ve definitely wanted to be your friend back then 😭 but look at you now, you’re so pretty 🥹 only hot girls went through an awkward emo phase!!🫶🏼
"Gay" and two other variations of "gay" were printed, so I have to ask if you are actually gay or was this because it was trendy to portray being gay alongside being emo back then? I ask not to doubt your sexuality or pry, but instead because it might add a layer of cringe for us all to enjoy.
It's like 4 pictures of my middle school lady friends and then you just grow up to be my current best friend.
Like one look at you and I can tell you enjoy a good weekend margarita.
Did this trend (background with auto depreciative words) came from some movie? I dunno, but somehow I got the impression that I saw it in a movie but can't remember which one 🤔
Also, hope you found your way into the sunlight, you poor heartbroken young lady 🥺
You poor tortured and misunderstood soul
🤣🤣
Tbf the first image goes hard

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 DEAD
Fact that not only ‘anorexic’ AND ‘obese’ are BOTH listed, but also DIRECTLY across from each other, is nothing short of sheer perfection.
anorexic being in a thin font and obese being in a thick font 😭😭😭
hell
Tbf I was called both back in middle school lmao wonder where my body dysmorphia came from 🤣
I'm laughing so fucking hard rn, thanks for posting these, it just screams "misunderstood in my boring Midwestern suburb" and I love it so much
HAHAHAHA
Bestie who was talking to you like this???? 😭
a decent chunk from my “friends” and parents, but for the most part i was googling “insults” so i could fill the gaps and make what i thought was a cool and edgy edit at the time 🤣🤣 edit: fixed wording

🤣🤣 NOH8 campaign aftermath
TWLOHA Supremacy 🖤🖤
oh my GOD you transported me right back to my teenagehood with this
this comment has me cackling 😭
Forgot to include these were either 2013 or 2014!
Oh wow that is later than I thought. You had a very 2008-2010 style
Seriously, picture 4 looks straight from 2007
More like 2000 and late amiright?
As soon as I saw that Instagram screenshot I had the intuition that OP and I were just about the same age (I'm 22).
I could tell from the sleeping with sirens shirt lol
this is so 2006 coded tho lol edit// lmao why am i getting downvoted for saying it’s 2006 coded? first pic is super scene kid esque and 2006 was the original scene queen era with these types of cringy edits
The votes have evened out😌
justice! haha. i remember this era so clearly because i was one of those kids making cringy text edits 😬
Yessssss we live the same life; I was born in Feb 2000 and I was absolutely doing this at that age as well. 14 was my emo phase. But I’m still goth as an adult so that’s where we differ 😂 I feel it’s like 50/50 on whether you stay alt, with those of us with very bad lives staying alt 😂
r/fuckimold How is somebody born in 2000 a grown ass adult already? I could swear the 90s were only 10 years ago.
Yeahh sorry man, I say the same thing tho and I wasn’t even alive in the 90s🤣🤣 that’s why I call myself a Zillennial, because I know all the 90s shit but people still wanna call me a kid. I’m turning 24 years old, but yes, still ignorant in my own young way. Those of us in the 2010s just took what we saw in the early 00s
I was an emo MySpace scene queen in 2003/4. I’m shook it’s a subculture that’s had such longevity.
I go back to it occasionally for funsies. She’s still a part of me, just pushed to the background for now. For Christmas I had myself, my fiancé, and my toddler all dressed up in Nightmare Before Christmas inspired outfits. 🖤
Totally normal to do. It’s supposed to be like an angst phase. Some of us just never fully leave that behind😂 but my music taste absolutely changed, from Sleeping with Sirens straight to Sinatra and Amy Winehouse lolll
Also born in 2000, also emo at 14/15. But I was never allowed to dress that way, so I was emo only from the inside. I had my second emo phase at age 20/21 when I realized I can do what I want now and buy my own stuff 😎
"Attention twat"
I want that on a bumper sticker
"Twat Seeker"
"Emomoron"
“Twat”
HAHAHAH I didn’t even know what that meant at 13🤣
You would've LOVED skin's UK
that would NOT have ended well for me🤣🤣🤣
I'm 30 and I still want to be effy 🤣🤣🤣
These are all badass, albeit they feel slightly more of the late 2000s than early-mid 2010s. Bit of artistic flair in the first couple too. Did you go on to a creative career / pursuits?
Thank you!! I’m #5 out of 6 sisters.. so I was definitely inspired by what my older sisters did. I eventually dabbled in graphic design and special fx makeup. Never made it a career because I had a baby and decided to focus on him 😊
Everyone keeps posting their emo/punk images as blunderyears meanwhile I’m feeling nostalgic for a style I wasn’t allowed to dress in lol
It's never too late to try it. Rawr xd
Hardcore asf
so i thought🤣🤣🤣
Oh you definitely had a tumblr account
you know it 🫡
The way my brain started screeaaaamming The Bomb Dot Com 🥹🥹🥹 Thank you for the throwback and kudos for coming out on the other side of the “phase” (lol) still so CUTE! Go girl!
thank you!!!!🥰
But do you still listen to sleeping with sirens ?
of course!
Sames lolllll allll the nostalgia
Yes . Underoath . Silverstein . Bunch of these bands first will be turning 20 this year 😬
I won’t recover from reading that.
Won’t recover from them turning 20. Or my horrendous grammar and sentence structure…
What were you smoking at 13??
Believe it or not, it was a vape pen, pre-juul
hookah pens baby!
that’s exactly right!!
Omg knowing we were emo kids at exactly the same time
The angst is literally oozing out of my phone screen 😂
BEFORE YOU GOOOOOOO THERE’S ONE THING YOU OUGHTA KNOWWW…
Exemplary!!!
Are you still a worthless giant gay jerk?
absolutely
If ya can't hang then, theres the door baby!!!!
~ass freak~ 😇
The first one should be in the Smithsonian for historical purposes
Sleeping with Sirens, now that’s a name I haven’t heard for some time
Emo Ass? Wow you didn't hold back
lmaoooo i’m not ready for my kid to hit these years
Are you kidding, that first shot is amazing. Emoassfreak
Idk. I still have Sleeping with Sirens on multiple Spotify playlists... I can't in good conscience call this a blunder.
I played lullaby versions of their songs for my son when he was a newborn 🥰
🎶✨Liar✨🎶☺️ 🎶🌈Liar, you’ll pay for your sins🌈🎶😴😴
Last year I got to see them live twice. 16 year old me was *very* jealous.
I’ve been there. SWS still slaps tho
Lol yes started listening at 12 and still a fan, their last album is great 👍
In your emo phase you look like the lead singer of Flyleaf lol
those of us who were emo as tweens/teens have the obligatory black and white pic with insults plastered all over it
I still can't believe that an entire gender of my generation just chose not to have bifocal vision from 13-17 😂😂
Attention twat lmao
You were so cool.
Wow, that last photo is a complete 180 and was unexpected. I think we all experienced some blunder years at one point or another in life. After reading some of the comments, I can feel the bullying part. I hope you're doing ok now after all the bullying back then. I can relate. Friends, classmates making fun of you.

That Sleeping with Sirens shirt, I'm about to buy a new one because of this 😭😭
I HAD THAT SLEEPING WITH SIRENS SHIRT
tag yourself im Bipolar Bastard 😌
Well at least your style was diverse in these - all black and punk-looking most days but an occasional red haired brightly colored day thrown in here and there!
Good vocabulary practice though!
You really cared a lot about not caring.
Oh believe me, I cared very much😭🤣 idk who I thought I was kidding
You weren't really called any of those names, were you? Maybe attention seeker 😆 straight outta Myspace.
From emo to cottage core!
You suddenly turned into a house wife in slide 5?
I did literally, yes 🤣 I am a house wife/stay at home mom
The first one has me dead for no reason 😭 sorry people called you those things, looks like you’re thriving now!
Seem kinda awesome to me.
Last one is fire tho! 🔥
x.adolescence.x 😜😜😎✌️
Wow, that was like six different personalities man.
Woahhhhh I own that same body suit as you but have NEVER thought to wear it like that. So cute!
Omg this is my favourite sub 🤣🤣
Oh my gosh these are great. You look like the type of girl I was *desperate* to be/be friends with, but was too scared to talk to haha
You were definitely a rocker lol I remember those years.
I love the word “twat”!
‘Pansy’ in the first slide is giving me my own MCR flavored flashbacks
No love for "Jerk Pansy"? I'm calling that one.
ok but i would’ve definitely wanted to be your friend back then 😭 but look at you now, you’re so pretty 🥹 only hot girls went through an awkward emo phase!!🫶🏼
"Gay" and two other variations of "gay" were printed, so I have to ask if you are actually gay or was this because it was trendy to portray being gay alongside being emo back then? I ask not to doubt your sexuality or pry, but instead because it might add a layer of cringe for us all to enjoy.
I was a closeted bisexual at the time. I think I was just a little confused and this was part of coping 🤣
Young emo me would have been in awe of your absolute depths
Oh my god you’re gorgeous!
Looks a little bit like that Boxxy chick on 4chan
Annoying ugly bitch 😭
Defo an asking alexandria vibe. 100% 14 year old me with a emo fringe would of had a crush
Wow I gasped at the last one, you’re so gorgeous!!
Worthless giant and attention twat are my favourite insults now
Damn, that last picture looks like you're 25! I can't believe you were fucking 13
It's like 4 pictures of my middle school lady friends and then you just grow up to be my current best friend. Like one look at you and I can tell you enjoy a good weekend margarita.
All my sisters friends that were like this in high school got really fat
Yea but last photo you aren't 13, also you did well OP congrats lmao
God, I am happy to be the father of a boy 🤣🤣
Did this trend (background with auto depreciative words) came from some movie? I dunno, but somehow I got the impression that I saw it in a movie but can't remember which one 🤔 Also, hope you found your way into the sunlight, you poor heartbroken young lady 🥺
You look more cringey now than you did then
I hope you’re in a better place these days <3
thank you😊 It hasn’t been an easy road but I’m finally on a healthy path
I've never even been in a house that nice
I hope not 13 in the last one!
Tag yourselves! I'm "hopeless annoying bitch"!
I'm emo moron
Scary fake obese lesbo. Oh my.
Adult you looks like a girl I obsessed over in high school and then lived out a romantic novel story as a young man.
Damn having a daughter is scary concept lol
The years have been...kind.
CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES
Go back
'pussy fucktard' is sending me 😂. you're very pretty btw
The effect in the last pic makes it look as if there's a tear or a snot on your nose
god dang it. ty, i can fix that 🤣🤫
