Joplin

A girl who is struggling with self and others enlightenment and some has faced some odd ordeals. Someone that thinks about how love is leaving and is leaning towards a life of solitude because people never understand her strange approach on life and her philosophies. People think she is intimidating, and perceived as rude. Really it is that she is smarter than the average person.
See that weird girl sitting over there; she just moved here and her name is Joplin.

Janis Joplin Syndrome

Janis Joplin Syndrome is when a music group has a female singer that becomes just as if not more famous than the band she is in. Named after Janis Joplin who was originally a member of a blues revivalist group called Big Brother and the Holding Company. If you know anything about music history, you'd know that Janis left BBATHC after a 2-3 year stint with them to start a short lived but widely successful solo career.
70% of cases of JJS often end up with either the singer going solo (see The Supremes, No Doubt and Destiny's Child) or worse, the singer being the only original member left, somewhat like Axl Rose Syndrome (see Evanescence). Most of the time, all-girl bands are immune to JJS with a few exceptions such as the Bangles.
other famous cases of Janis Joplin Syndrome include:
Diana Ross from the Supremes
Gwen Stefani from No Doubt
Beyonce Knowles from Destiny's Child
Hayley Williams from Paramore
Amy Lee from Evanescence
Susanna Hoff from The Bangles
Tarja Turunen from Nightwish

Joplin, Missouri

A Midwestern city in Missouri with about 51,000 people. In Joplin, you are either a weed-smoking gay person who can’t wait to get out, or an ultra-conservative Christian who thinks that Planned Parenthood was run by Satan, worships Donald Trump, and attends one of the thousands of churches here. Most famous for Route 66 and the May 22, 2011 tornado. The north side of town is where you can find the not-so-rare Joplin Tweaker, who you can find dancing around higher than heaven and stealing Walmart bikes. The south side of town is where you find all of the houses built by Schuber-Mitchell, and where you find zero trees. Joplin features Joplin High School, which was destroyed in the tornado. It looks fancy, but it was shoddily built. It’s claimed to be EF5-proof, but 90% of the building is glass. The teachers and administration are fine, but the school board is full of wannabe conservatives who hate students and regularly fuck over the school. Joplin is represented in Congress by Billy Long, the Janna the Hutt-lookin’ motherfucker from nearby Springfield.
Little Johnny: Mommy, where are we?
Mom: We’re in Joplin, Missouri!
Little Johnny: Who’s that?
Mom: Why, that’s just a naked heroin addict talking about how the Democrats are going to cause the apocalypse!
