pop rock

Also known as poser rock, mall rock or fake rock, this non-rock genre is characterized by a strong commercial appeal, with emphasis on professional songwriting and recording craft. Pop rock was created by bored, moronic suit and ties at record labels, radio stations and MTV letting everyone clamor onto another phony genre. Pop rock is typically characterized by the following:

1. Lame pop melodies screamed by women, so-called "country" rednecks who sing corporate pop, gay boys or pseudo-sensitive yuppies who have no historical knowledge of rock and roll and think that's what they are when they're not even close.

2. A complete lack of any talent or difficulty.

3. Queen, even though they're a good band with godly album tracks.
4. Pointless lyrics, along with a lack of passion, artistry, subelty and intelligence.
6. Pop punk or emo pop/mall emo bands.
7. Jangly, treble-heavy, droning, bright, twangy "DING-DING, DANG-DANG" riffs that are played on repeat.
8. Artists being stuffed under "alternative rock" by the media so record companies can put out as many clones of lesser-known or often-feared genres to be consumed by the masses.
9. Post-grunge or over-commercialized modern rock.
10. Melodic metalcore and electronicore. Both of them. No exceptions.
11. Modern heavy metal bands like Helloween (post-Metal Jukebox), Metallica (post-...And Justice For All), Hammers of Misfortune, Judas Priest (post-Demolition) and Avenged Sevenfold.
The Beatles, The Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedys, Suicidal Tendencies, Bad Religion, The Misfits, Black Flag and The Ramones are all rock bands. Avril Lavigne, Elle King, Pink, Hilary Duff, Kelly Clarkson, Imagine Dragons, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, the Jonas Brothers and Weezer are all pop rock.

Pop a tag

Stealing something, more accurately, stealing clothes from a clothes store.

The term stems from the action of popping off the magnetic tag of an item in order to get through the exit without raising alarms.
> Damn, I'm about to pop a tag again...

- Man, don't do that. I'll get you some clothes from my home.. Don't you know how much luck you've had popping these damn tags this long?

> Bruh, but I really need them new Js.

- Bruh, shut up already, with your pop-a-tag ass talk - you don't really need to.

> What you want me to do?! when all I know is how to pop them tags..
