The Madden brothers, the sycophantic kiwi media, and anyone who refers to those two douchebags as "punk" or "rock"

Just listened to them for the first time. A pop band. Not a bad thing as some modern pop bands are ok but these are pretty bland.

Mind you I was annoyed when the called Green Day punk...

Yeah, I'm no punk myself but something about the term being applied to the sort of guys who date Avril Lavigne and act as judges on glorified televised karaoke contests like the "Voice Factor Idol" or whatever it's called really grates on me. 

Edit: and yeah, I don't think Green Day are punk either. Although they're closer than these guys

Yeah, I'm no punk myself but something about the term being bandied about on the sort of guys who date Avril Lavigne and act as judges on glorified televised karaoke contests like the "Voice Factor Idol" or whatever it's called really grates on me.
