DoTA Boys and Their Emo Status Messages
One of the groups in my Yahoo Messenger is composed of guys I met through DoTA. These people are clumped under the group "dota boys." Most of the time, a lot of these guys are online. And I usually get a kick out of reading their very much emo status messages. Tonight I screencapped my YM to capture some of these emo messages. Look above... One says "It takes a lot of love." Another says "u made it clear when you said I just don't love you no more." LOL! Whoever said that guys are not emotional must not have met these DoTA boys. I'll try to capture more of these emo status messages in the future. ;)
