You Know You're A Real Green Day Fan When... [Expanding On My Earlier Blog]

”19. If someone talks s**t about them, you get offended and punch that motherf*****r(or at least kick or something)”

Sorry, about the profanity, but I wanted to quote it. A few weeks ago I posted a blog about point number 6, but I felt like I wanted to make a second blog about this point.

This point basically tells me that if someone says something bad about Green Day I should be annoyed. Now, I don’t think I should have to be annoyed at someone for saying something bad. Shouldn’t I respect their personal opinion?

And why should I be offended by someone saying something bad? They’re not personally offending me, if someone says something like: “Green Day are terrible and lack talent”, I wouldn’t agree, but it wouldn’t mean I would have to be angry.

So does this mean I’m not a real Green Day fan? No. Being annoyed at someone for thinking something different is wrong. People should respect others opinions, not be offended. Maybe if they personally do something to you that offends you, that gives you the right, but not otherwise!

And also:
” 5. Green is one of your favorite colors”

Now colour preferences affects music taste does it?

” 10. You're against war”

And your view on war?

A lot of things on that list are wrong, basically none of them make you a real Green Day fan, except maybe number 2: ”You know other songs than American Idiot”. That makes you a fan I suppose, but most of the things on that list are ridiculous. Sure, it’s meant to be just a bit of fun, but it annoys me.

Below s a version of the list incase you haven’t seen it, but wish to:

1. You have other albums than American Idiot
2. You know other songs than American Idiot
3. You have Bullet in a bible
4. When someone says 'cool' you start thinking Tre Cool
5. Green is one of your favorite colors
6. You hate George W. Bush
7. You celebrate their birthdays
8. Your walls are covered in their posters
9. If you don't have all of their albums/dvd's, you never give up on looking for them
10. You're against war
11. You have sent an e-mail to George Bush from Green Day NRDC
12. You buy anything that has something to do with Green Day
13. You're not ashamed to wear their merchandise stuff in school or anywhere in public
14. You scream when you hear one of their songs on the radio
15. You buy every magazine that has something about them
16. You (almost) cry when you forget to watch one of their interviews on Tv
17. At least one of their songs has emotional meaning to you
18. You start laughing in the middle of a class in school when you remember something they have said or done in an interview
19. If someone talks s*** about them, you get offended and punch that motherf****r(or at least kick or something)
20. You have heard all of their songs
21. You listen to their music everyday
22. You remember many of their quotes
23. Some of their songs make you just wanna jump around and dance
24. You want to play guitar/bass/drums just like Billie Joe/Mike/Tre does
25. You make sure you spell the band name 'Green Day' and not 'green day'
26. You truly love each of the band members
27. You (almost) scream out of happiness every time you watch Bullet in a bible
28. You never shut up about them
29. You have read Catcher in the rye because it's Billie Joe's favorite book (and you loved it)
30. You have this on your profile

As you can see, the majority of these things are ridiculous. Sure it shows you like Green Day, I suppose, but it doesn’t make you a real Green Day fan; which is what this list is marketed as.

Thanks For Reading.x
