monkeyman Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 so I had a look though the first page or so and didn't see this: http://au.news.yahoo...ght-over-pants/ seems a bit crazy tbh... lol
Liam Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I swear to god there was a thread for this but I can't seem to find it
monkeyman Posted September 3, 2011 Author Posted September 3, 2011 ah well... lol, also looks like I can't spell 'kicked' in the thread title
Ellenkc Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Don't think there's a separate thread for it, everyone's just been using the Twitter thread I am still way too amused by this story, I would have laughed my ass off if I was on that plane.
Silverlight Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I find the title of that news article hilarious Who can take an article entitles Green Day Singer Ejected From Flight Over Pants seriously? Edit: I just read some of the comments. God, some people are rude
AwesomeAsFudge Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 i thought that Billie did so. but i think he was right little bit. you don't expect that they care about what people wear or the way they wear it. so that was little bit ridiculous !!
Pres Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I think this whole thing is hilarious before this i'd never heard of someone getting kicked off of a plane for something as ridiculous as the was they wear they're pants. I can completely under stand why Billie reacted the way he did I bet Southwest Air regrets kicking him off the flight now
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 There are loads of links to articles in the tweets thread already. And a lot of discussion in there as well. The airline was being ridiculous, but I guess Billie's reaction wasn't a smart one (although completely understandable and one probably many people would have had). I don't agree with the airline by any means, it's extremely stupid what happened. Just saying that "just trying to get to my fucking seat" may not be the smartest thing to say (way to say it) if they're threatening to throw you off the plane, and airlines have a reputation for being ridiculous anyway.
Brigister Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 It's totally ridiculous, those people are douches, I mean, what do you care if his pants are low? wtf?!
farley drexel hatcher Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I don't think his reaction was rude or anything ... I'm not a confrontational person by no means but if I was asked the same thing, my reaction would be the same. You'd think it was a joke or something, it's that ridiculous

WestboundSign! Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I think it's good to finally have a thread for this. Discussing it in the Green Day Tweets thread was okay, but it seems to be such a big subject that we need a seperate thread for it.. My opinion about his reaction is just that it's normal. I think, it sure wasn't the best he could do / say but I'm sure there wouldn't be many people who would have reacted in another way.
Abbey. Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I dont know what is more disturbing about this... southwest airlines caring about his low slung pants -or- his twitter post being used as a source of "news" from the "news" story posted above it sounds like he was booted off for being mouthy to the stewardess flight attendant.
Nobody Likes Cam Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 This is an example of complete stupidity. Some people are just idiots. That is the dumbest thing to kick someone off a plane for.
Four. Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 "A musical called "American Idiot" based on the band's music is playing on Broadway." A bit late in the news, bro. Also, it annoys me how the comments are so hypocritical. They all talk about how Billie should yank his pants up, but they couldn't care less if all the rappers have their pants down to their knees.
veroPasalacqua Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I am still fucking amused by this omg fioasdufodigvWGV

Most of the comments seem / are thoughtless and just nasty.
Margo 39 smooth Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Can I just say did anyone see lil' Wayne's pants at the VMA's?!?! Now something should of been done about THAT. If he can have his pants to his knees on live television than who gives a fuck if Billie's are a little saggy http://www.google.com/imgres?q=lil+wayne+vmas+2011&um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1366&bih=572&tbm=isch&tbnid=LwCuZoo5RO9OsM:&imgrefurl=http://www.lilwaynehq.com/&docid=FPQ9TKtdqegqDM&w=406&h=600&ei=Wy5iTqW5COnk0QHLrKGVCg&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=687&page=3&tbnh=125&tbnw=88&start=43&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:2,s:43&tx=31&ty=42
Isabel Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 fuck, I wish I was on that plane. I would have yanked my trousers down and shuffled to the front of the plane yelling "If Billie gets kicked off then we all do!!" with everyone else shortly following suit. Billie would be so delighted with my triumphant protest and he would then announce our eternal BFF friendship......
darenmay Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 i like it how Billie tweeted about this. it's like ~we should know.
darenmay Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 ____ oh hai, Billie has worn his pants that way for almost half of his life, and has toured the world many times surely wearing his pants very low. he had been to every airlines and never before had this happened (or had it?). apparently, it wasn't Billie who had the problem. and he should not dress "properly" just for anyone.
farley drexel hatcher Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Just feel the need to say that I just read this as 'Billie Joe Armstrong kicks pants off on plane.' now there's a headline XD
Stormy Haze Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I love how this has made it to the news I think it's ridiculous...
