Get the White Girl Musicmug. Music filled with angst and repetitive grungy choruses, usually popular songs from about 20 years prior, at which point now divorced dads were in their formative teen years. Usually listened to not by choice, but rather the hearer is subjected to it against their will. Including but not limited to Creed, Nickelback, etc.
