Fall Out Boy
David_Dovey:
Um, I don't understand why such special ire is reserved for this band? Unless it is, as I mentioned, that the band's trajectory is pretty much an object lesson in selling out. Like I said, I get pretty uncomfortable with them for that reason to the point where I can't even bring myself to illegally download their records, but I'd be lying if I said I hadn't actively enjoyed listening to their songs when they come on the radio.
Also it occurs to me that the fact that I basically never find myself in a situation where I have to listen to commercial radio or watch music television or basically engage with mainstream culture whatsoever means that I'm basically immune to the negative effects of the kind of ubiquity that a band like Fallout Boy get, which is probably another reason why they seem to be a favourite for haters of all persuasions.
I imagine if I had to hear a song like "Thnks Fr Th Mmrs" (ugh) twice or more a day for any sustained amount of time I'd probably be joining in the fun myself.

It's not really special ire. It's just ire. They're a shitty, obnoxious band.

You say that so much it has lost all meaning!
