Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Step1
Embrace the slogan t-shirt. There's a ton of emo-inspired attire out there just ripe for the picking. At least one store in every mall specializes in emo attire, so just ask a sales rep which one he likes best for your emo guy friend.
Step2
Give him a gift certificate. If you aren't up on the latest emo tunes, give your friend a gift certificate to a local music store. That way, he can pick out the CDs that he really wants.
Step3
Buy a journal. If you're low on funds but still want to buy a nice gift for your emo guy friend, buy him a journal. He can write poetry, lyrics or girl's phone numbers in it. Add a heartfelt message on the front page and you have a really thoughtful gift.
Step4
Bake something. Bake your friend a batch of brownies or a cookie cake with a sappy message written in icing. He will love the sentiment and the yummy treats.
Step5
Score bonus points by wrapping your gift for an emo guy in used CD lyric sheets--the sappier, the better.
