Get the green day mug.
Green Day
1. A day spent smoking weed, usually out of boredom.
2. A pop-punk band formed in 1988, with many good songs out like "When I come around", "Time of Your Life", "Why do you want him?" and more. I discovered them in 5th grade when hearing Boulevard of Broken Dreams on the radio. I looked them up and, well, fell in love with their old stuff as well as new (but preferring pre-American Idiot). But then, I discovered something in 6th grade called real punk. I really got into The Stooges, The Ramones, The Clash, Misfits, Sex Pistols, etc. A year later, I listened to American Idiot for the first time in years and came to a conclusion: that (new) Green Day, while being pseudo-punk and somewhat annoying, is a pretty unique band. Compare them to the other stuff that's out today!
HOWEVER, Green Day started an epidemic of a new breed of poser. It's when someone aged 8-13 believes they are "seeeeew punk rawk" when they listen to Green Day, Blink 182, or Avril Lavigne. They oftentimes don't even know who the bands I mentioned previously are. Those who like Green Day are often seen bashing Bush without even knowing if or even why he is a bad president. Now, not everyone who listens to said music is this way, just a vast majority. Not saying bad things about everyone who likes Green Day, just those who listen to them only and try to be something they're not. To conclude, a decent band.

1. Jimmy's so baked. It's definitely a Green Day...
2. Actual conversation:
Poser in my class: I just love Green Day omg!
Me: Do you listen to anything else??
Poser: Well my favorite artist is Avril Lavigne. It's just pure punk rock!
Me: Dude, thats not punk. Have you even heard of the Ramones? The Clash? The Sex Pistols?
Poser: Well, I havent heard of the Sex Pistols or the Clash. But the Ramones are gay!
Me: -rams head into wall repeatedly-

Green day
Quality band which poeple tend to see as sell outs because of their last album American idiot. For me they will always be remembered for Insmoniac and dookie two of the best punkish albums I have in my collection. Unfortunatly their main following now consists of teeny boppers who only discovered Green day existed when Boulevard of broken dreams came out and wouldn't know "At the library" from "Westbound sign" Still i suppose they had to find someone to fantasise over after Busted split up. DAMN YOU CHARLIE!!
girl 1: "wow have you heard that new band Green day?"
girl 2: "Yeah, billie joe is gorgeous"
me: "For gods sake! they have been around for 15 odd years!"
girl 3: "really? wow do you reckon Nirvana will ever get back together? that would be qualtiy"
me: *sound of me crying on the floor in utter despair*

Green Day
A band that started out as "Sweet Children" playing at gilmmans street,
on the "lookout records" label, eventually they became biggewer and had to switch labels becuase of the over demand of Kerplunk, became very big once dookkie came out. relesed a few more albums. they were called sell outs for leaving the underground and lost much of there fan base, with thier aucostic song "good radiance", even more now with thier release of thier new album "american idiot" which blew up more than dookie, getting into the mainstream more than before with American idiot", "holiday" , "bulovard of broken dreams" and recently not as much play "wake me up when september ends", causeing many things.
leading me to this conclusion:
people who think Green day is gay period,
people who think greenday isn't punk anymore and that they are sellouts,
little 10 year old girls who drool over billie joe and don't know shit about them ,
the adults that really don't give a shit,
and the true fans who love all thier music even if it's punk or not
thank your for reading, and have a good day.

green day
Green day ~ day spent to just smoking pot and doing absolutly nothing at all. sitting on the couch, eating food, just not leaving the house at all while you are stoned.
My friends and i got our first paychecks today, and we celebrated by having a green day because my parents were out of town.
