Guess Who Just Watched the New Green Day Video and Got a Headache?

if you guessed me, you guessed right. when the fuck did green day decide they were the pop-punk version of anti-flag? i mean i guess i get it. anti-flag writes intelligent - although misguided - songs about government corruption and how the little guy is getting screwed...well at least unless obama is in office and then it's all rainbows and puppy dogs. and they got pretty successful off of that. so after a few lukewarm albums i can understand how you might want to jump on that bandwagon. especially when it's so fucking easy to be angry when you're rich - because poor people don't have enough energy to fight the system ya know...we need our celebrities to do it for us.

but at least put a little effort into it. and yeah, this is coming from the guy who's in a band that sings songs about eating chicken. and even i'm appalled at what's passing for angry rhetoric. especially given that the guy that you're railing against in your songs? yeah, he's not in office anymore guys...time to let it go. woody guthrie is rolling over in his grave...

i let you guys off the hook for american idiot. but this is just pathetic.

and now to get off my soapbox and watch this piece of shit go double platinum with the hot topic tween set...
