The Great Divide Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I've been seeing this hashtag in a lot of places around the site and I was wondering what the hell it even means because no one has provided an explanation for it thus far so an explanation would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not real funny to me, but I'm sure it means a lot more to the people that attended the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather. Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 It was funny for like a day, then people started to have really annoying and unnecessary conversations about him getting divorced. I get that 99% of the people doing it are being ironic, but it's still soooo stupid. #enoughalready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that 99% of the people doing it are being ironic, but it's still soooo stupid. #enoughalready I'm pretty sure literally everyone who does it on here has only ever done it as a joke/to make fun of the idea that there's people who would actually freak out or form theories over Billie not wearing his wedding ring or other trivial things like that. But yeah, I don't really see the appeal of making the same joke hundreds of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero_Of_The_Hour Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 To some people #ringgate is a sign that the world is ending. Everything they have ever believed in is dead and they can't go on breathing. "What is this LIFE?!" For others #ringgate is a fun way to rub these folks the wrong way just by dropping "#ringgate". #ringgate is a phenomenon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chin for a Day Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Maybe I have a sick sense of humor, but I thought #ringgate was pretty funny. As others have said, you have to laugh at the idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deafleopard Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I can't answer what "#Ringgate" is but I just wanted to state that: Not wearing his wedding ring isn't such a big deal...it doesn't mean he's getting a divorce! Maybe it's because the ring snags his guitar strings? Patrick Stump from fall out boy openly took off his wedding ring during an acoustic performance of "Young volcanoes" and openly stated to/showed the crowd that the ONLY reason was because it snagged his guitar and made the awful sound when he played with it on... People these days are so hooked onto the media and so quick to judge and spread useless and pathetic rumors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People these days are so hooked onto the media and so quick to judge and spread useless and pathetic rumors. You said it yourself...you don't know what #ringgate is! Billie wasn't wearing his ring for about a month before the HOB show and he wasn't doing gigs. He also wasn't wearing it afterwards. It has nothing to do with protecting the ring...it has everything to do with #ringgate ;p Other #ringgate investigations show Lady Fucking Cobra was at the HOB show. I mean at that point there is no further need for us to try to even pretend he's even married anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deafleopard Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Oh well , I haven't really researched green day for a long time to be honest So sorry if i come across as not paying attention...lol Well that does seem a little strange...maybe he just doesn't need to wear it...

The irony of this is that those of us that use the term #ringgate really don't care about Billie's marriage or ring but enjoy the terror the use of the term inflicts on those who do. So maybe Billie loves #ringgate too and that's why he doesn't wear it! Yay. Billie loves #ringgate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
