Is it Possible for an Icon to be "Too Emo"?

    Hi everyone, I was talking to a friend who told me that my current choice of profile imagery is a bit "too much" and that it makes me look unapproachable. It’s just a picture of a rainy window with some dark lyrics written across it, but apparently, that’s "peak 2009 edginess." I actually really like the vibe, but it made me wonder if there is such a thing as a "too dramatic" emo pfp for a professional-ish gaming community. What do you guys think? Is there a line between "cool and moody" and "trying too hard"? I love my emo pfp. Thanks in advance.
