I tried to summarize around 70% of this thread into a single picture: (The pic's a meme that made the rounds in Japanese twitter a while back)

Not exactly a meme, but: I KNEW IT EDIT: Pardon my rudimentary photoshop skills.

He's just someone who's gone to get a coffee like anyone else and probably doesn't expect his photo to end up online with people picking it apart, Jesus. He doesn't "need" to do anything. So I'm not spamming

He´s got a good heart (well, don´t know him, so it´s just a conjecture), and he can look like however he wants to look like.

There is not a single person on earth that is nice 100% of the time... Billie is human

I think that might be taking it a tad literally, to be fair. As a performing musician, I feel most at home on stage, as if that's really who I am, and that's most likely the case for a lot of professional musicians. It doesn't make everything else an act, it's just that some people feel most at home on stage.

Saint Nicolas is going to have a tough time this year.

No one on this board can answer that as we are not around Billie in his personal life

I had no idea there were backing vocals in Wild One because it's too much of a struggle to get past the intro.

i hear 'i wanna jump out' every time and always have, i didn't realise it was difficult to hear

He's probably a perfectly decent guy. Why would anybody who has just met him lie about how he treated them? Like anybody else, it's a matter of catching the guy at the right or wrong time.

Well, Billie could be a prick for all we know, but at least he's a prick who makes some nice music.

Comes from her: alyssatomfohrdeabout 3 hours ago Yes I did. He was very kind and giving money to a homeless dude. Don't judge him people! I'm sure if he was all dressed up you would say he's not real anymore. He's human!

Hi DookieLukie.

The "defective" part in Church on Sunday is awesome!

C'mon guys.. Wild One is amazing.

I think you're all crazy, Wild Ones awesome its got such a great dark vibe though of course the lyrics are crap though I do like the chorus a lot. But the instruments are amazing IMO and I think it hit the vibe that DOS was going for better than any other on the album

I'd rather listen to a Blink 182 song than Wild One.

The first time I heard Wild One it was on CD, and because it came right after Lazy Bones I thought it was actually the same song until the first verse (and the hole between the 2 songs was a random little break before a guitar solo just like the previous one on Lazy Bones)

I really don't get the hate for Wild One, its slightly darker than Green Days usual stuff which i like and the solos sexy

I always thought it was "I wanna jump out" too. It makes sense in context too.

Billie's hard-pressed to remember the lyrics to songs he wrote five years ago.

Yeah, I also thought it was "I wanna jump out". Didn't realize it wasn't in the lyrics

Lol at people thinking they know what kind of a person someone is when they've never even met them. I mean you can get a vague idea, but you can't really draw any conclusions unless you know them. You've just made me realize I don't know what it says and it doesn't say it in the lyric booklet . I hear it as "Pride (or something with an "i" sound anyway), what is your pay out?". I seriously don't know though. Your version makes sense with the song as well but it's so hard to hear that who knows. Someone needs to ask Billie this.

You've known his public image for almost a decade. That's something quite different to knowing him personally. I'm not even saying you're wrong, I'm saying no one outside his personal life can ever know either way. But yes, there's always Mike.

Capped this from Cuatro and posted it on my tumblr, but that would be shameless self promotion to link it here.. hehe.

Is he nice most of the time or is he mean?

If any of these have been posted already please tell me

Lol he is still cute old but cute

This fucking man.

Even Biffy wish they were Green Day, so that's an interesting thought.

Oh, in the last chorus? No, I don't think I ever thought it was faulty.

Am I the only one who always just thought it was part of the song?
