Blink-182 doesn't suck. Not that I know of. Even if they did steal the sounds, the songs sounded good - what else do you want me to say? Yeah, maybe nothing was "their's" but ... quite honestly, who's problem is that? Not your's. Not mine. Or are you a lawyer? In that case, pardon me ...
"Poser" is such a dumb term to label someone with. I see people going around in the mall pointing to random people, "Dude, man, they are so not punk - POSERS!" ... I never thought this generation would have that much time on their hands. It's not worth it. People should ban that term altogether, the juvenile root of it will destroy us all.

Yeah, maybe nothing was "their's" but ... quite honestly, who's problem is that? Not your's. Not mine. Or are you a lawyer? In that case, pardon me ... And who are you? Doctor Phill? That you tell us what we should do as if it was better. All anybody on this topic were doing was stating their opinion...which is what they're here for. I have a question though...are you here to defend Blink...or to try and stop people from using the word poser? I really hope that you're not here to denfend Blink because you put Blink down in everyway possible...not to mention you're not even sure of your opinion. You say "Blink doesnt suck...not that i know of". Not that you know of? Wow...I dont think thats even worthy of an argument. You say yourself that they steal everything...but the songs still sounded good. Thats like Someone burning down your house and saying "hey...at least the gardens still there. You can't build a house from a garden...just like how Blink couldnt build a career from lyrics. There are other things that make musicians...well...musicians, and Blink never had any of them. Sorry you have a problem with the word "poser", but its a word to decribe someone...and the perfect word to desribe blink 182 in this situation. Who wants to sit there and type "they followed everyone else just to get sales and nothing they did was really their own" everytime when you can just say "poser"?....sure as hell not me. These people in the Mall you're talking about are totally different. They're judging poeple on their looks...thats not going on here. Face it...the word "poser" is just about as evil as "slow", "blue", "tall" or "short". Will it destory us all if i used the word "nice" to describe what kind of day it is outside? I didn't think so.

i just farted and it stunk horribly, there i ended this debate, like i always do, cause like the trancendentalists say if it is true to you, then it is true to nature, and by golly i just farted more. to end this properly, im sure Blink 182 can fart good and thats all that matters, farting

Just because I have to comment on this and because I have to make Andy's attempt at moderation futile. HAH!
Poser. This term is used quite openly by just about any special interest group, and it's used quite often. Why, you say? Jealousocity. Yes, I made that up, but it doesn't void my say in this. Your example was punkers. Yeah, lotsa punkers label just about anyone with tight pants and a Less Than Jake shirt posers. They do this because they're either jealous or afraid of punk becoming too mainstream.
Also, don't try to tell people not to use the term. It's appropriate, though you may not think so. Posers equal things out. Real can't exist without fake just like peace can't exist without war. There are always two sides to a scale, and imbalance only appears when there is too much of one thing.
I guess that's all... If there are any arguments, please spare me your crap. Keep it to yourself. Poser is NOT a bad word. Sabam is.

And with that said, I'm locking the thread since we've gotten completely off topic.
For those of you too lazy to read the whole thing here is an overview. Blink 182 broke up. Blink stole music. Some like Blink, others don't. Poser = not a bad word, but used to describe someone who isn't really true to themselves and do things just for the approval of others. People = sometimes bad. Green Day = awesome (not really sure how we started talking about Green Day so much)
