don't get me wrong, I do respect other people's opinions and tastes in music, but saying Green Day are "appaling" and "worst band ever", fuck that - i just can't relate to that EVER -

:lol: I actually love you. XD

Posted

no not really, green day is very accepted and there's a lot of people liking them... It could be because I'm 22 and not in school anymore.

everyone hates Green Day in the South...fuckers.

Posted

Everybody I hang out with listens to that rap shit. I dont care that I love Green Day. No one says anything though but if they did. o man i would be pissed.

Posted

Most guys in my school are the "if you listen to underground, you're cool.. If you listen to any band that made a music vid, you're a 'sellout.'"

Ugh...pisses me off :dry:

My friend Anthony has taken a particular liking to irritating me about Green Day. Or attempting to, to be more accurate. Don't know where that came from, he never mocked them before. I suppose it's just because he's convinced he'll find a way to irritate me, and as I've told him before- he won't.

I'm glad high school is over as well! :)

The same thing happen to me, well almost...they said that it's tha worst band ever...But what realy pisses me of is that they listen to Green Day too, and when they liste to Green Day it's suddenly cool to be a Green Day fan. When I wear my shirt they says that Green Day is just lame...

i sit in class daily wearing a GD necklace, sometimes a shirt, and even my purse has a giant heart grenade on it.

oh yes, i do get looks. but i've learned to accept it.

like i read Andres saying, GD is all about being an individual, and being a fan of them for years now is what makes me one.

Very few people I know likes Green Day... some people I know don't even know who they are! @@ And the people that don't like them it's always because they either didn't like that style in the first place, they're conforming to the "I hate Green Day NOW" crowd that think they're being hardcore, they "ONLY like their old stuff", or "meh their nothing special".

I get bashed all the time for liking them, most by people my age or younger-- the adults that I know all seem to like them quite a bit. That says something. Sure, it bothers me that they're dissing me for this band that I've loved so entirely since I was very young, and whose lyrics & music in general are perfect for me... and that I wish these people would like Green Day as well, or give them a chance so they'd understand. But then I realize-- maybe these people aren't WORTHY of listening to Green Day-- maybe they're just idiots trying to get attention-- maybe they're too stupid to understand what Green Day represent to so many.

And in the end; you've just got to give up trying to please others. Do what you want and how you want. Listening to enough Green Day, and it's drilled into the brain. I've always liked that quote from the 'Ultimate Albums: Dookie' documentary, where they said "...being cool meant being being yourself." (:

not so much..I have a friend who says "that's shit!" but I don't care...why carying about that...it doesn't matter...let them have that dirty mind... :happy::P

blah blah blah I don't care

I remember one time over half of the kids in the lunchroom got in front of the exit when we were dismissed and chanted at me, "GREEN DAY SUCKS!" over and over again. The deans just stood there and let them do it, and I busted out laughing.

I think that people do things like that when they are either facing inner conflict with themselves and/or are trying to associate with a stereotype. That or they simply do not like Green Day, but of course, picking on a fan is really stupid.

I mean, I can't stand Paramore or Avril Lavigne, and I'll tell people I hate their music if they mention them to me, but there is a fine line between telling someone you hate the music and emotionally "attacking" them for differing in opinion. It's all bullshit to me.

It normally ends in a punch up.

Posted

yes i get it alot. but just from people who like fucking rap music and shit like that.

Posted

once and a while.

Posted

People don't do it anymore because I don't show crazy devotion to Green Day anymore. No matter what band it is that you like, you're gonna catch shit from people.

Posted

i dont understand why people get on other peoples cases about liking whatever they like, unless its harmfull. its a band...they play music. its not like the people that listen to them worship satan. goddamn stupid ass people. just laugh, thats what i do :]

Posted

So many haters...

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.

Your hilarious my american idiot friend. I was a fan after american idiot. Does that mean I'm not worthy of being a Green Day fan? I love Green Day. They are the most amazing band I have ever heard. I value there views on life and I support most of their decisions.I don't think American Idiot was the best album. Kerplunk and Warning have to be my favorites. Although I do believe that A Lot fans during or after American Idiot are teenies and aren't worthy of such a great band.

As for the topic of this original message. I don't listen to those type of people. I shrug it off or tell them to shut the hell up. You should be proud of being a fan.

I've only have a few people comment on my green day shirts, they say that they suck, and I reply with "Okay you've probably heard a few of their songs on the radio, disliked them, and deemed the whole band and every one of their 9 albums terrible and therefore with your experience you are going to tell me that my favorite band sucks?" And if they keep saying they suck I ignore them. I'll defend Green Day but if I'm talking to some idiot then I give up. It's too bad they can't enjoy Green Day like us.
