Emo Stuff. Nothing Feels Good: Punk Rock, Teenagers, And Goth.

Question: Why is cheese, from fosters home for imaginary, so popular among emo chicks?

I've noticed a trend in Emo/ Gothic apparel. It would seem as though Cheeese from Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends has become sort of a mascot for the Gothic community, especially among the emos. You will often see emo girls wearing Cheese clothing or backpack. Even carrying around Cheese plushies and keychains. Why has Cheese become so popular among Emo chicks? What qualities does he have that attract you to him? I asked one friend of mine who said, "Cause he's adorible and he's emo himself ", is there any truth to this statement? Do you agree with this? Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

From what I know about silly, made up, teenage subcultures (which is quite a bit, as I work with teenagers) Emos and Goths are very different, and both would be insulted if you mistook one for the other. And Cheese, who's a hyperactive character with the mentality of a 3 year old, isn't at all "Emo, " which is a subculture defined by their moodiness, their dark makeup, tight pants, stripey hair, and awful music. Emo kids do seem to show an affinity for the most annoying cartoon characters on tv (Patrick, Cheese, Fred Fred Burger, Gir), and it seems mostly so they have an excuse to get attention by yelling their favorite cartoon character's catchphrase ( "I like chocolate milk! ") in the mall and then giggle about how "random " they are.

I'm no Goth but I like chocolate milk. Ha! Get it??? Ahhhh...no. I don't think he's emo though...he's not self-absorbed and he seems pretty happy.

Really? I thought Bloo would be more popular. Bloo and Berry are my favorite characters.
