Sadie Marie Salute You in Your Grave Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 3179	February 25th, 2007 at 04:03pm Frankie Is My Iero: I'm left-handed.: It totally affects my life. And I'm sure it affects everyone's lives on INO. MCR makes people like me. It makes people hate me. MCR has changed my life both ways- for better and for worse. But mostly better. The bad things, like people calling me emo and thinking me weird, I can totally handle. I can even handle my parents thinking I'm some kind of goth princess. But the good things- I'm so thankful for them. I've realised that I have to be true to my heart and not take anything from anyone. I've learnt to be myself and not care what anyone else thinks. i totally agree. that is basically the exact same for me, So yes, this band has affected my life. And I'm totally happy about that. Yeah. Exactly the same for me, couldn't have said it better.

Jake Joining The Black Parade Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 188	March 2nd, 2007 at 01:54pm Tamar: yes. I love My Chem. that's it. It comes to the point where I can't even concentrate in anything else, they are on my mind all the time. I cry each night when I go to bed because of them. I thank them everyday and I love them and always will. It's not just about the music anymore, it's about who they are, the amazing people they. They are not just another band I like, they are my friends. and they are very good friends. I feel good (and sad) and I listen to their music or watch an interview with them. Specially Gerard, he was there when no one else was. most people are like, "WTF? their just a band, you're fucking stupid, it's pathetic" But there is nothing I can do about those people, if me loving MCR is stupid and pathetic I guess I am just gonna have to live with that fact I'm stupid and pathetic. All I know is that I love MCR and that they changed my life, in a good and in a bad way, but still did, so thank you, My Chemical Romance [I sound pretty...retarded] You don't sound retarded. That's actually pretty cool. I'm glad someone feels that way, I'm glad that they're doing that for people. Really neat.
xOurLadyOfSorrowsx Killjoy Age: - Gender: Male Posts: 73	March 13th, 2007 at 07:53pm I cannot even say how much it has affected mine. everyone in my school are MCR haters. and i come to school with an mcr messanger back a mcr belt an mcr sweatshirt and anmcr tee shirt and i get so much critism. but i could care less because i friggen llove them so much. i guess people dont understand. i just cant see my life without mcr. its like they understand.
daniel radcliffe. In a Bullet's Embrace Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 55644	March 13th, 2007 at 09:23pm Lunacy.: They have done a hell of a lot for me, that is all I can say cos words won’t be able to sum it up.
Kid Rock Banned Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 7686	March 13th, 2007 at 09:51pm MCR has shown be it's ok to be yourself..To stand up for yourself & not let anyone push you around... That is a lesson I'll remember for the rest of my life.. I know it's oversaid & corny & what not..but MCR really did change my life..In both good ways (I no longer change from MCR when my friends come near me b/c I don't care what they think of the music) & bad ways (I don't take shit from as many ppl which pisses off a lot of ppl..but that's not bad is it?).. I only wish I had the chance to thank them...
Ghostgirl191 Jazz Hands Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 288	March 13th, 2007 at 10:07pm this band definetly affects my life. if mcr weren't around, i wouldn't have a favorite band, i'd most likely be cutting or something. honestly, i cant even remember what i used to listen to before i started listening to my chemical romance. the lryics are deep and actually have meaning and everytime i forget what the point to life is, i look up at the poster on my wall and say "oh, i remember now."

I only wish I had the chance to thank them... I agree. I was trying the whole “be yourself” thing at the time I was discovering them, but without anyone really helping or encouraging you, it’s hard. I was so confused because I wanted to do what I want, be what I want, but at the same time I was scared of any complication that came with it. After really getting into MCR’s music, after listening to what Gerard had to say, I thought, “Shit, I want the complications. I want myself, not them, but me. Thanks Gerard, you’re right.” Which opened doors to so many new doors, significantly broadened my mind, enlightened me in so many ways, gave courage, etc—I can’t possibly list them all. All I can say is, they’ve helped me to where I am now, and I am very happy and proud of the way I am. On the bad side, senioritis + sudden surge of obsession = horribly dropping grades and teachers threatening to rescind recommendation. 9_9 And...I also am more prone to get into arguements and fights than before. My mom was telling me I've become more hostile lately. >_>

Zombiefied Fabulous Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 144	March 14th, 2007 at 04:51pm It affects me because i can't get through a history lesson without my teacher asking how many more pictures i have of my emo band So i guess they've pretty much taken over school life as well
Sammie Really Not Okay Age: 36 Gender: Female Posts: 639	March 14th, 2007 at 04:58pm Liking the band has changed my life. I'm a different person than I used to be. I'm stronger I guess. I'm being called emo now (which I think is stupid to label someone coz of the music they like). i play their music all the time. I'm constantly singing their songs or have them in my head. They saved my life. My family think that I'm weird and believe that the bad things that have happened to me over the passed few months are down to MCR, which is not true. I buy magazines every week.. Well only if they have MCR or bands that I like. But through the negative and positive, I still love them as a band and always will.
Zombiefied Fabulous Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 144	March 14th, 2007 at 05:04pm I love mcr band but there not the only band i like its good to have different sounds
Paint It Black Bulletproof Heart Age: 36 Gender: Female Posts: 28500	March 14th, 2007 at 05:15pm I'm slowly starting to realize that I'm not alone. I'm not stupid. I'm not the biggest nerd ever. And even if I was - that's OK too. Gerard once said: "The difference we wanna make is number one to let these kids know that they're not alone, that they're actually not that messed up and that they can do whatever they want. They can express themselves however they want without being persecuted or called a faggot or some kind of racist thing. You know, really just to get people to get over their stuff so they can live" I seriously had to fight to hold my tears back when he said that. I've felt for a long time that I'm not actually living. So that's what I'm working on right now. They give me hope.
don't aim to please. Banned Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 1543	March 14th, 2007 at 06:30pm myxicyxblues: it affected mine big time since im so obsessed with these guys if someone messes with them i defend them. i read about them. i sing there songs i play there songs they saved my life. but today my girlfreind broke up with me and mcr was one of the reasons what about you? Why'd MCR have something to do with it?
Geesus. Motor Baby Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 891	March 14th, 2007 at 09:55pm my chem have definately changed my life they, introduced me per se, to more things and made me see the truth in things theyve also motivated me to speak my mind and voice my opinion and not care what ppl think. at school i'm the emo/goth freak that likes a gay band but oh well because i'm just being me like my chem try to persuade you to be, if that makes sense. my obbsession, you could call it, has annoyyed a lot of ppl but idc. i like them. they made me who i am today. i'm not ashamed. i totally respect these 5 dudes and what theyve done for me.
snagicous Jazz Hands Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 288	March 14th, 2007 at 10:01pm Definitely; mention anything pertaining to acronyms or any other connections to My Chemical Romance, The Black Parade (albums; Revenge & Bullets), or anything that would remind me of their quotes, and, of course, their songs, get me extremely, suddenly, violently happy. Ecstatic, really. I've been fucked up by "friends" and still am...And MCR, no doubt, can immediately put a smile on my face or make me cry tears of pure happiness...Call it sad, I call it an obsession...Just...indescribably feeling...invincible. MCR, as said above, I think gives everyone hope and something to bring up the day. They send the right message; they're helping me to make the decision to keep on living. I am not afraid to keep on living I am not afraid to walk this world alone It's so powerful. Overcoming everything and feeling you're in top of things again...I've been through what you others have been through/are going through, and just have to say keep holding on, because My Chem wants ya to!
Murder Magician Salute You in Your Grave Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 4774	March 14th, 2007 at 11:33pm MCR has definately affected my life in more than one way. It has its bad affects and good affects. But of course, even though the bad are pretty bad. The good over rules them by far.
ambriece Always Born a Crime Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 6705	March 15th, 2007 at 02:54am Liking MCR doesnt reaii affect me anymore as much as I started getting in to them a few years back...But when I did, I was so into them, and my friends and fam didnt care realii until it got to a point where thats all I could talk or think about, like I could turn anything they said into something about MCR, you could be tlaking about country music and somehow I dont know how, but it would turn into a conversation about them..it got annoying to them after awhile and they didnt realii want to hang out that much nemore....but I 'calmed' down after awhile and now they understand that MCR has done alot for me and everything... but also that alot of their songs remind me of things Ive been through or go through and help me to handle things better. They've made me stronger then I used to be because I used to break down so easily and now I have them to listen to, to look up to. They give me the motivation to keep on going even if Im as down as I possibly could be.. I dont know if this answered the question, but I think it did..I probably sounded like such a weirdo right then, but oh well....thats that..
