When you go down a street out in the middle of nowhere called Armstrong Rd. and think about Billie.

When you try Fiji water for the first time, decide it's actually gross, and start judging Billie hard

Fiji Water is so yesterday.  But seriously, the only time I have ever had it was when Billie passed his bottle out to the crowd during the Longshot show I went to and it just tasted like regular-ass water.

Regular ass water? 😂😂😉😉

When my goldfish came over to the corner of her tank to watch the MTV Seville gig on TV.

When you see King Charles' robe at the Coronation and you think of Billie during King for a Day. Billie needs to bring back that robe.

There is a Longview Street in my town.

We have a book mobile parked up in the next street and it always reminds me of Green Day 

There used to be a Ford up the road with BJA as part of the number plate too!

You remember things that no one else seems to remember about the band....    of course this could make you just plain mad.

When we were at the Sam Fender gig on Friday and Dad noticed that fans were “mashing” like they do “at Green day gigs” (lol, he meant moshing)

Here in the spoiler is the best video I can find on YouTube to show the fans moshing. P.S. Sam Fender was excellent ⚪️⚫️

When the characters in a TV show you're watching are talking about the first gigs they ever went to and you somehow know they're gonna say GD before they've even said it 😅 And then later in the episode they play Good Riddance and say it's their favourite song, and you're simultaneously singing along to the song whilst also being salty because there are so many better GD songs that could've been their favourite 😂

Was watching new episodes of the same TV show and one of those characters' ex-gf/best-friend died and they played Good Riddance again and now I feel like someone in production is definitely a GD fan lol

When some random person on Reddit uses the word "badabing" in their comment on a post completely unrelated to GD and you instantly come to GDC to tell everyone about it

When you find yourself working on a YouTube video with @That Dude explaining all the stops on the bus route from Nightlife.

I constantly see the word "foam" everywhere I go.   And there is a Longview Street nearby.

Not specifically Green Day but the reference to Woodstock 94 at the end made me think of them

When I flew home from Greece the other day and I spotted Huddersfield and Leeds from the plane- I have seen GD at both of those places.

I did an outreach event at an elementary school yesterday night on behalf of my university's entomology department where I let kids meet, learn about, and handle live arthropods. We brought our Madagascar hissing roaches, Vietnamese stick insects, black widow, baby emperor scorpion, tailless whip-scorpion (her name is Taylor Swift because people often think we are saying "Taylor Swift scorpion" when we say "tailless whip-scorpion"), and my personal favorite, our tarantula named Curly Sue. We did not let children handle the widow, emperor, tarantula (she's a sweet baby, so it was more for her safety because if she were to be dropped she would die. They could pet her, though.), or the whip-scorpion (only because she gets scared easily and runs very fast. She's literally harmless).

Now that you have context, you know you're a Green Day fan when you come home and wonder about how the Green Day boys would react to these critters. I know Mike has at least posted pictures of a tarantula in his yard before, but I don't know if he's actually a fan of them. No idea about Billie or Tré. Would they be comfortable petting Curly Sue or holding a hissing roach?
