Angie-Marie Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 No kidding.I had someone tell me the other day that I should "stop listening to Green Day and listen to the Jonas Brothers instead". Oh wow, that's classic!
Smoothed Out Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 hahaha I love getting hated on, because some people have the worst excuses for why they "suck".Today I was showing one of my friends the picture of Billie where he's playing his Gretsch and since it's such a huge guitar and he's so tiny, plus the way he wears his guitars way low, it looks like it swallows him and he's having to stretch to reach the strings. We were laughing at how little he looked and one of my other friends came up and wanted to see. He's a guitarist and thinks he knows everything about it on occasion, and after seeing the picture he goes "well y'know how you can tell a good guitarist?" I asked how and he said it's because they won't wear their guitar low. He goes, "He's not a very good guitarist, and you can tell even by looking at him. Don't worry, there are lots of famous guitar players that really aren't that good, and they almost all do that." and went on to say that Slash is one of them, blahblahblah.I stopped listening at that point, because he was obviously just talking to be talking. After he walked off, I laughed so hard...since when does low guitar = bad guitarist automatically? Wow your other friend (no offense) must be such an amazing guitarist to know that!
Maddy. Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 so we had this party yesterday and the music was pure trash, and i was looking though the songs on my friend's ipod and shes like o i dont have any green day... the way she said it was pretty offensiveI get that a lot. And also people saying "what are you listening to? Oh, Green Day, nevermind." or "Green Day again?"stfu and gtfo my iPod
Pharmakon Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Wow your other friend (no offense) must be such an amazing guitarist to know that! he really is good, he's been playing since he was 8. he just has a messed up idea of good music
Opezi Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 ya people i know are all like "green day are gay" but whatever i mean, they are just missing out on one great band !
Maddy. Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 ya people i know are all like "green day are gay" but whatever i mean, they are just missing out on one great band !Exactly, I mean, it's their loss. Let them deal with it. xD
♥Christian and Gloria♥ Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 They don't call me emo but they do all know I like Green Day so the best insult they think of to tell me would be 'Green Day sucks'. They say that over and over again. And i go 'yeah thats great.' or 'just because you have bad taste in music doesn't mean i have to care' Honestly what is it with Green Day that people hate?
Rae'n'shine Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Yesterday, I was in a conversation with a friend about Taylor Swift and Kanye West (yeah, my friends and I still talk about that) and I told her that I was only watching for Green Day. She then said "ew." What makes me laugh is she rants about Parawhore like no other.
Velocity Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 I can't stand a lot of the comments that people leave on Green Day's last.fm page. It's usually stuff like "green gay hahah" or "Everything after Dookie sucks, blah blah", or "they sold out, they're terrible" or "they changed too much" or "metallica pwns this shit" or some other stupid shit like that. I mean, 1) if you don't like the band don't go trolling on their page, and 2) if you feel the need to criticize them, come up with a mature and legitimate argument.
Prisca Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 ya people i know are all like "green day are gay" but whatever i mean, they are just missing out on one great band !Exactly! I bet if I offered someone who 'hated' Green Day a free ticket, they'd definitely take it & come with. And after the show, you know they would totally fall in love with Green Day. Seriously. People have the stupidest reasons for disliking Green Day.
Velocity Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Exactly! I bet if I offered someone who 'hated' Green Day a free ticket, they'd definitely take it & come with. And after the show, you know they would totally fall in love with Green Day.I did this with my friend and it did not work. I paid for her ticket in order for her to come with me, and she was such a downer the entire show. I know I would have had so much more fun if it weren't for her. Anyway, after the show, she still couldn't stand them, and was actually mad at me for making her go. Ingrate.
Tiffx Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 ^ That sucks. People who don't listen to GD seem to either hate them a lot, or just judge you for listening to them. People have asked me what I'm doing these holidays and I tell them I'm going to see Green Day live and whatnot, most of time they're like 'oh right'. You can just tell by their tone of voice that they're somehow judging you for listening to Green Day just because they might not like them. Somehow it seems to be okay for people to get all excited about seeing artists like Britney Spears and Taylor Swift and whatnot, but when it comes down to Green Day most people who aren't a huge fan will just be hateful and judgmental about it. I bet if I said something on facebook like 'so excited about seeing Green Day' I'll get comments like 'ew there's better bands' or some shit like that. Whatever. Just pisses me off even though I probably shouldn't care.

Smoothed Out Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 he really is good, he's been playing since he was 8. he just has a messed up idea of good music I stand corrected, most of my friends share the same messed up idea too though
Rosie May Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 What annoys me the most is when people say "oh I like their old stuff but I don't like them now" and the only reason most people seem to have is that AI was successful and they dress differently. I hate when people say their "sellouts" when they don't even know what the word means.It's so frustrating, there's more of an anti-green day bandwagan than a pro-gd one.
saintcarlos Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 I got a lot of shit in high school for liking Green Day, they talked how Billie was Bisexual and kissed men and stuff, and listening to them made you "Bi", rumors even spread that i was bisexual, some of my friends stop talking to me, i didn't really care, me and one of my friends were like the only ones who liked Green Day, i remember he gave me a Green Day sticker from one of those $0.50 machines. i lost contact with him he was a cool friend to have, i need to find him this was my backpack in high school lol
Princess Consuela Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 I hate the look people were giving me when I told them I was going to Green Day show.
greendaygal89 Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 I hate the look people were giving me when I told them I was going to Green Day show.i hate that look as well
Princess Consuela Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 i hate that look as well That's why I limited number of people who knew to minimum But I don't actually care any more.
Sarahnade. Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Today, my friend was like, "Are you still into Green Day?" And I just told her I liked them, like...a month ago? I guess she thought it was a phase or something. I was just like, "Yeah. I have been for 6 years." And she was like, "...Oh. Meh."People ALWAYS got on my case for liking them. In 5th grade, I got it pretty bad. I'd wear a GD shirt, and everytime I would, I'd get the 'Gay Day' or 'Green Gay.' How clever. And when I graduated middle school, a few people wrote 'Green Day sucks' on my class shirt instead of signing their name, so I'll always have that as a reminder.People can just be so stupid about it. I seriously don't get it. Now, I just shrug it off. Go listen to the stupid fucking shit you call music and don't like Green Day. More for me.

Kryssi. Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Last night on x109radio.com, there was this dick head who called in and was saying how Green Day is a phase, and only 14-15 year olds are into them and make the majority of the crowd up at shows. Oh, how very wrong he was.
