I want to see that musical so fucking much. It needs to get over here now.

But, lol. That's an awesome reference.

:happy: Yeah the musical is really amazing, they should bring it over there.

I was watching a show and they said "salt of the earth" and "working class Hero" a minute later :woot:

Not sure if this was mentioned, but the Canucks play Holiday everytime a goal is scored. I've been watching a lot more hockey lately... I've also heard East Jesus Nowhere, Know Your Enemy, and Brain Stew a few times. When I first heard the opening guitar for Brain Stew, I stopped what I was doing, looked at the TV and thought, am I hearing what I think I'm hearing? then I heard Billie start signing and my mom actually looked at me and said, you're not gonna let me fast foreward through this are you? then I started freaking out. that's also the game that played EJN too...

me: "WTF?!"

the contestant: "when november end?"

me: *yelled at the tv screen* September!!!"

LOL!! THE SONG WAS EVERYWHERE AND HE DIDN'T KNOW?! XD

I was reading Harry Potter and it said something like long-winded or something like that. But at first I read longview :lol:

I just remembered one, we were driving somewhere and my mom is like 'look at the bus in front of us' and i look and see an ad for a local radio station that's motto is 'playing what we want', you can usually hear the really big and well known rock bands on there. so anyway the ad had 5 t-shirts with different band names and one of them said Green Day :D the other shirts said Aerosmith, ACDC, and i think Nirvana and the Rolling Stones. needless to say i freaked out^^

just remembered another, i was sick one day and i was lying on the couch watching and show on the best 50 pranks ever, and they showed a prank where a guy was reading off a teleprompter and someone changed it so the guy ended up saying 'i am an idiot' or something like that, and right after he said that the show started playing American Idiot while replaying the clip. It made being sick that much more bearable :happy:

God, I had at least 3 today! :D

In Economics, my lecturer said "Markets are good because they move towards equilibrium." I spazzed out a little bit because I've never heard that word anywhere else :woot:

Haha I'm a chemistry major which means I'm so used to hearing/talking about "equilibrium" that it took me so long to even work out the Green Day reference there :/

Ah, well that makes sense I suppose! :P

I never knew what equilibrium meant. Everytime I listened to Jaded I thought "Y'know I really should look that up." but never got around to it :rolleyes:

That's why I was so :woot: when I heard him saying it in class, because I'd never heard it anywhere else other than a GD song!

Only thing I can think of is once in my Anthropology class a year ago, my professor was talking about the different cultural uses of art, and one of them was for political purposes, and she had on the board "Green Day's 'American Idiot' ". I was geeking out in my head when I saw that.

I FINALLY saw the Green Day poster in Freaky Friday. I wish I could screencap it somehow.

This year we had a Spirit Day at school called "Green Day". I kid you not.

So I wore a Green Day shirt :D

I also have a teacher named Mr. Roecker.

There's an ad on tv at the moment for some movie playing in a couple of days, and it has My Generation playing in the background. So naturally, every time it comes on, my sister and I are all "Greeeen Dayyy"

And there was something else earlier this evening, but I forgot it.

Today in work, I was talking to one of the guys about my hours and how I need to save up loads of money for June. He was explaining how all of the managers in each branch are given a set budget for the week. He was like "This store could be allocated maybe, like, 1,000 Hours." I was like :)
