klytaemnestra Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 Loadsa people tell me Billie Joe can't play guitar, but I just tell 'em to shut the fuck up cuz he can sing, who the fuck cares if he can't play fucking guitar?If someone says to me Green Day are crap, I tell 'em that I don't go on at you for liking your music, so why do you go on at me for liking my music? It's complete shit.
Sansha Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 No one here in the far Middle East has actually HEARD of Green Day. No, that's not true - some have, like me. But very few, so I get no shit in that area. But I have an American friend back here who knows about them, and she kinda laughs at me because she thinks Green Day are idiots. She's a Coldplay fan...And when people do tell me Green Day are just a bunch of whining punks, I tell them that Billie is an awesome guitar player, and he sings great, and Mike has those totally crazy bass riffs, and Tre's God's uncle, and altogether Green Day is the best band ever. Am I right or am I right? But here I'm trying to convince the convinced, so there's no point continuing...
mechanicalman Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 All the chavs get their sticks out and bash me over the head for being a Green Day fan. :fakenopic:
whatsername131 Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 Today I had an excursion to go on and we got to wear casual cloths and I thought I would wear my GD tee-shirt. I got onto the bus and I had people going GD’s gay! Why do you like them? Ohh your so emo! And one thing really got my attention was they thought I was a groupie and that I only liked GD for their looks and that I was like in love with Billie Joe!! That really pissed me off!At school I have people call me emo and wright it all over the tables all because I like GD and one boy asked me when I went to a GD concert did it slit my wrists when I was there because that’s what all GD fans do!! All I won’t is to wear my GD top and like them with out people saying stuff.i'm called emo like 20 times a day. i usually just ignore it. I hang out with people who don't bash GD and say that I'm suicidal and such.
Christi Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 The other day at scool, we had a little project in English class. Everyone was supposed to present their favorite band/music genre, So i told them about Green Day. I thought that this was a brilliant oppertunety to show my whole class who i really was, and what my interestes is, and that they would accsept who i was... but, no.. after class this girl came up to me and said: "Hey! your presentation was great! But Green Day??!! They're just a bunch of wannebee punkrockers!! They just pretend to be cool, and have good punk music.. !" I was so pissed off at her, and we startet agure. :/ Not pretty! And I punched her in the face! Has something like this happend to any of you before?

cellophaneice Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 People have the right to hate what ever type of music they want. Even if it is green day.
Hitman Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 No. According to these people, you have to agree with them, or you're wrong.Duh.
rootbeersoup Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 This reminds me of that documentary thing I saw abut the Ramones and they were saying how they liked The Stooges and nobody else did.Well, one time I said I liked Green Day, and another kid said he liked them, too. So yeah.
DisappearingBoy95 Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 People give me shit sometimes and I just say "Fuck You, What do you listen to, a bunch of shitty rap?" That usually shuts them up and then they admit to liking Dookie.
jesus the rage guy Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 No one here in the far Middle East has actually HEARD of Green Day. No, that's not true - some have, like me. But very few, so I get no shit in that area. But I have an American friend back here who knows about them, and she kinda laughs at me because she thinks Green Day are idiots. She's a Coldplay fan...in the past many coldplay fans outiside here-sometimes at msn-bashing me because i like green dayi think is pointless, why do they think they win when they are bashing a band?wtf, they cant understand i like to listen alot of bands...well, they bash every band i like...i dont dig them, what's so funny about bash a band?the band will be the best to me even if u bash them all your damnit whole stupid life ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡they dont respect another bands...and many of them love coldplay fuck coldplayfuck people who bash mefuck all of you
iamwhatsername13 Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 I hate people who have nothing better to do except make you feel bad for liking something. Theyr'es many bands i hate but i dont go parading around saying how much i hate them.
catastrophic Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 People have the right to hate what ever type of music they want. Even if it is green day.Exactly.
Rita Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 It happens to me regularly at school. One more reason to hate my school and schoolmates.
IWantYourBabies Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 My brother calls me/them/other fans fags/emos/goths/bogans.It shows that he doesn't know the definition of any of those things...And other people think they suck because they don't have fancy guitar solos, or just say they suck for some weird reason of their own, or because their genre happens to be rock.I've given up on retaliating.

Am I right or am I right? But here I'm trying to convince the convinced, so there's no point continuing..."Tre's God's Uncle" is the coolest thing I have ever heard anyone say about him. :-D I haven't smiled all day. That worked!They are very underrated as musician. In my opinion. I agree with you. I am 33, and I even get crap from my friends. You would think people might stop at this age. I listen to all kinds of music...Green Day though, they just can't take that. I have gone too far. haha. My one guy friend tried to do this imitation of how Billie plays guitar, and he looks like a friggin tard when he does it. I always have to explain to him that is how Billie gets the sound he does.
green day girl27 Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 People have the right to hate what ever type of music they want. Even if it is green day. i know i agree with you i dont care if thay dont like green day thay just can't acepet that i dont like there music :/
Sunshine2385 Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 Thanks for caring, guys XDI think it's more disrespectful that you're a chick and guys are beating u up for something so retarded as liking a band. WTF? *HUGS*
haushinkapritchard Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 People have the right to like and dislike whatever they want, they have a right to thei own opinion and to voice itBut they dont have the right to make peoples lives hell for liking green dayI get beat up and called names and laughed at all the timePeople know me as "the green day girl" all around town because im the only person here who likes themBut you know what people, In the end Green Day will always mean more to me than being popular and not getting any hassle ever wouldI have to much respect towards green day to ever lie and hide my love for themGreen Days music will always be there for me when noone else isJust for example of the things that happen to me:Today I was walking down a street up town and some snooty old woman goes "Dont even brush against me you dirty punk" I looked at her for a second and then said "Dont you dare brush up against me, I dont want to ever get that close to someone so offensive and disgusting as you"and then later on a bunch of people ran up and tried to mug me and beat the shit into me (this is including guys) and by the way im only like 5'2 and im not even 14 yet, these people were like 16/17 and they were massiveAnd now my ribs are fucking aching, I think one or two might be broken But you know what, just ignore all the shit and stay true to yourselfthats the best thing you can do in life All the chavs get their sticks out and bash me over the head for being a Green Day fan. :fakenopic:That made me laugh for some reason And now i have Ian dury stuck in my head for some reason that rythme stick song
-zero- Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 It seems that if you haven't been a fan since pre- American Idiot you aren't worthy of being a Green Day fan. Therefore I lie and say that Nimrod was the first album I heard.Citris you couldn't be more wrong. It doesn't matter if you jumped on board when American Idiot came along. A Green Day fan is a Green Day fan. I mean, there are people that listen to American Idiot and nothing else from Green Day, or think American Idiot is the best and everything else sucks, but those are just immature little faggots. Green Day is an amazing band, and no matter when you started listening you can enjoy all Green Day. I started listening at American Idiot. Hated it. Hated Green Day. It was overplayed. Then I gave it another try a month or two later and checked out the older shit. Green Day then became my favorite band. My favorite album: Nimrod.
GuitarPlayer5 Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 When you wear your shirt and people tell you that they don't like them, tell them to fuck off.That is what Green Day stands for.To like what you like and to do whatever the fuck you want.Don't care what others think.Remember, you don't need their authority.
valeria carci Posted May 26, 2007 Posted May 26, 2007 PEOPLE THAT DOESN'T LIKE GD ARE DEFF BLIND AND DUMB that's it.course all my friends are deff blind and dumb poor girls and boys and gays............ I'll never let green day because of the assholes that doesn't like them and talk shit about them
Basket_Case98 Posted May 26, 2007 Posted May 26, 2007 One of my best freinds bash me on it whenever I say something about them.I'll say something to one of my friends that likes them and he'll be like they suck.blah blah blah. & I'm like whatever,I can like who ever I want to.It gets annoying though. & depending on what mood I'm in I get pissed.
hardtoconcentrate Posted May 26, 2007 Posted May 26, 2007 I usually find that the people who slag of Green Day are 'closet' fans. They take the piss out of me for liking them and then I discover an album or 2 lurking about in their bedroom or they admit they love them when they're drunk. Pretty pathetic really.The worst thing though is when people say...'I hate Green Day, I used to love them but they're new stuff is shit' Em...regardless of the fact they think they're new material is crap, is the old material not exactly the same? It hasn't changed so why would you suddenly hate a band that you previosuly loved all because of one record? DUMB people.
