Elissa. Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 I've been on vacation, so I caught a bunch of references while I was gone... So I walk into Game Stop, and the TV in there was playing the LOTAG video on VH1. There was a marquee that said "U r 4 given" ...I guess that could count as a reference. I saw a road sign that said "Christie Avenue," which is similar to Christie Road. Really lame reference, but I saw a Mexican restaurant named Trejos...the first part reminded me of Tre, and the second part reminded me of JOS. When I walked into Hot Topic, a guy in there complimented me on my Green Day shirt. Not really a reference, just thought I'd share. And just a few minutes ago, I saw a Heineken commercial that used the slogan "See the light." Double reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billie Kristy Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Last night I saw a movie with Sean Connery, and his character was called Paul Armstrong. (: I believe 'Just 'Cause' it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayfabe Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 For the last ten months I've had music channels to watch on TV, never had them before. They're really crappy ones though. This evening for the FIRST time in those 10 months I've FINALLY seen a Green Day video on there . It was Basket Case and I enjoyed it whatt I watched Green Day vs LP today, it was like almost two hours and Green Day won! anyway I was watching WWE and the guy said they had something called a 'Knock Down Drag Out fight' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

armatage Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 My book about guitar that father gave me a few years ago mentions Beej and Green Day for example as a band who has a song based on 4 chords and that's American Idiot. http://i26.tinypic.com/1g0ynl.jpg And this one.. is extremely weird. The company which made it is no way associated with Adeline. When I saw it in the store I was like 'Woaaaaaah, check this out, dude!!' and my friend just ran there to see what was so amazing me. Too bad, it didn't fit me (it was already an XS, I dunno, am I shrinking??) and I didn't purchase the tee. EDIT: My friend doesn't have a clue about Green Day so I had to explain it in the store, just standing before a bunch of these tees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoliceBoyLogan Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I also saw LOTAG music video in Gamestop. Also, in some sports shop in my local mall, they played the Nice guys finish last video. Made me crack a huge smile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AfterShock Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I'm watching Van Wilder the Rise of Taj. It's the scene where hes saying his poem made completely of song lyrics. The ending is: "Do I look like an American Idiot to you? So I wish you all the Time Of Your Life." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NowhereBound Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I don't really think this really counts, but a couple months ago, I went to the dentist for a cavity. He said to take my Ipod with me so I don't hear the drilling and he asked me what I was going to listen to...I said Green Day and hes like that's cool. He left the room and came back and said go ahead and relax and listen to Billie Joe and Company. I thought it was pretty interesting and random...

Catsername Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 That's an awesome dentist! I have to go in for a filling soon. Some GD references that built up in the time I haven't been on here: There's Costco on the west side of the US and I just found out there's the same kind of wholesale store in the east called BJ's Wholesale Club. On Phineas and Ferb (I don't watch it a lot, my sis happened to have it on when I was around), Phineas said "redundant" and later his sister said "good riddance." On a license plate, there was BBD which reminded me of BOBD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
