Pete Wentz is actually a pretty cool guy

I firmly believe that FOB's first album is a rock-solid pop punk album and thoroughly enjoyable. Just, the next three were pretty awful.

Why is one of the 'related videos' for this Shame On A Nigga?
SilentJ:
I will never understand why I know/read about so many people who dislike Fall Out Boy. I have From Under the Cork Tree, and it's a pretty good album. Plus I saw them live last night and it was a pretty okay show. Like, they're definitely far from the best band I know, but they're also very far from the shit that I hear people talk about them.
I'm actually kind of glad I saw this thread. Pete Wentz took like five minutes between two songs last night to talk about something, but goddamn he was stoned out of his mind (read: it was hilarious) and I had no idea what he was talking about. I think this is it.
And to address the issue of whether or not Pete Wentz deserves any recognition for the work he's doing, it's a bit of a two-sided coin here. Yes, he is still human and is getting a lot more recognition than the average Joes who do this sort of work day in and day out, but think about how many celebrities make a little money and then just go apeshit insane. The Lindsay Lohans and what have you, that after their career takes a good turn, they get a bunch of DUIs and/or busted for coke possession or what have you. The people defending Pete Wentz here are saying, yes, he's getting more attention for his work, but he's doing so in a position that a lot of other people would abuse, but instead he's using his fame and resources to further a good cause. I say good work, Mr. Wentz.

Agreed, I actually bought their first album after I saw the one and ONLY time their video played on Much Music (Fuse now). I'm kinda embarrassed to admit it now, but at the time, in middle school, I thought I was hot shit for being the one person i knew who heard of them.

You're probably right. I just remember their sound being somewhere between metalcore and thrash metal, but incredibly ridiculous.
