I tried to get into an emo bar, but I didn't make the cut.

Okay, listen up buttercup. This joke is based on the double meaning of the word "cut." Emo people like to "cut" themselves to feel something, and "make the cut" means being good enough to enter a place. The joke is that the person tried to enter an emo bar, but they were not "emo" enough. It's funny because emos are not known to be happy. You probably wouldn't get it, Zoomer.
