Why not Green Day memes? 

It's not even a Green Day meme though, it's like a one off joke that a non GD image is vaguely reminiscent of Insomniac. Even if it was would you like individual threads for every example of a Green Day meme that someone finds or comes up with?

Fair enough, it's not exactly a meme - I wouldn't nitpick on that though. It's definitely more of a meme than a random thought :P

Where did I imply that I would want an individual thread for every Green Day meme? I believe the one meme thread we have is enough. But if you propose this as an option, I'm not against it. I like memes.

Just seemed too tenuously a Green Day thing to have a whole thread for it, seems to fit as a random GD thought (ie I thought this image brings Insomniac to mind haha) to me. Didn't consider it a meme so I didn't think of the GD meme thread, and still don't consider GD being inserted into an existing non GD meme as a "Green Day meme" as such that could be extensive enough to need a whole thread. Not hating on it, just think it fits here.

Billie Joe cooks meth, got it? :P

Yeah, that's why the album was called ''Insomniac''. Adrienne suggested it back then. She couldn't sleep because of Billie Joe cooking stuff in the middle of the night.. :P

Vote Green Day guys, they're losing :(

I just voted for them (even though I never go on Twitter usually)

Even if they're losing, there are the best by far, I don't care about any result of any competition :wub: especially on social media!

I wonder what's going on with Billie Joe's new signature guitar from Gibson. It's been almost a year and there's been no word on it

Gibson is in a lot of financial trouble, so I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't happen. It'd be cool to see though, I really like the design of his new one

Can you put a pic in here? Not heard anything about this. Is it a new junior?

 

Gibson's finances won't impact this btw, they'll have their debts moved about and continue

I just saw this video for the first time and loved it. I feel like there was a thread before for "favorite Grene Dae performances" but I can't find it, so I'll post it here... I think this is my favorite performance that I've seen of Walking Contradiction, I love Billie's attitude, this and their performance of 86 on Letterman perfectly represent the Insomniac era in my opinion, and their performance of Stuck With Me at the Hotel Babylon

Any The Longshot fan here using Twitter instead of Facebook or Instagram? I'm @disappearingfs there, too, in case :-)

I love how even here, and it feels like ever since, whoever is introducing them wherever, they don't say "Green Day" they scream "GREEN DAY", I love it!

I think a lot of Green Day songs are a lot more serious than what they're given credit for.

When you mention Green Day people think of them as a 'light band with catchy tunes' but it's a lot more than that. I was listening to Letterbomb the other day, and I was thinking that this whole album is good,their music in general is serious stuff, it's talking about some serious issues, like drug abuse, leaving home, being a minority, feeling lost and fed up about society and people around you, taking a stand and changing things etc.

I was just overwhelmed by the meaning and the lyrics in some of them, these songs can change you, they're not just "yay, dance song" kind of songs.

I agree. They have some lighter songs but like songs on  American Idiot are intense.
