- Amadeus2490, on 10/25/2009, -1/+80I think their success has a lot to do with securing Will Ferrell as their drummer.
- Avaseal, on 10/25/2009, -4/+75better than Nickelback
- gllopc, on 10/25/2009, -13/+71Every time Red Hot Chili Peppers come out with a new song, I think to myself how fresh they still sound, how earnest music is supposed to be, and how disingenuous the Nicklebacks and crappy hip hop 'artists' of the world have become.
- mister331, on 10/25/2009, -2/+47Everything is better than Nickelback.
- electricwaffles, on 10/25/2009, -0/+40This is just weird.
- SpyderTaco, on 10/25/2009, -0/+36At least they're not KISS.
- Balanced, on 10/25/2009, -0/+25Thank you for actually using this meme in a relatively related thread.
- iheartbakon, on 10/25/2009, -1/+26So is gonorrhea.
- SpyderTaco, on 10/25/2009, -0/+22I'm so sick of that guy. Will Ferrell plays the same drummer in every band.
- Rikushix, on 10/25/2009, -2/+20Even if you aren't interested in their music, I think everyone should at least give reading "Scar Tissue" a try; it's one of the best books I've ever read, and I'm not even that much into personal memoirs. Course, they're my favourite band so maybe I'm a touch biased.
- Whiteknight117, on 10/25/2009, -0/+16I think we are to assume the locust's last visit was 17 years ago.
- Avaseal, on 10/25/2009, -5/+21That's what SHE said
- xenuxenuts, on 10/26/2009, -0/+13Some people say Nickleback had one good song. Unfortunately, they've released it several times.
- Jonjonr6, on 10/25/2009, -0/+13http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cicada#Life_cycle
In short, after hatching, some species of cicadas spend about 17 years under ground. - Rikushix, on 10/26/2009, -1/+13Yeah, next time I'll think twice when I'm telling someone about a book I really liked lest I'm seen as endorsing the behavior inside of it. I didn't realize that the concept of having differing personal tastes is equivalent to being unlearned and ignorant. Especially when I made no mention of how well it was written - just how much I liked it. But I guess that's my fault for not acknowledging the pleasure of getting a massive hard-on every time I tell someone I'm superior to them. My bad.
- andy78, on 10/25/2009, -2/+13It's almost as if this "onion" newspaper makes these things up... I'm pretty sure locusts don't enjoy alternative rock music.
- rocknog, on 10/26/2009, -0/+10Tangential question - why are cicadas called locusts? Growing up, I always thought locusts were cicadas, but then as an adult, I learned that locusts are actually grasshoppers. Now that I know, I make a point of differentiating, but I still don't understand why they were ever referred to as locusts in the first place.
- TBombadil, on 10/25/2009, -3/+11Chilis for life.
- itlnstln, on 10/26/2009, -0/+7I have dugg you down... only to digg you up twice!
- silentdragoon, on 10/26/2009, -0/+7Ironically this story is two years old: http://www.theonion.com/content/radio_news/17_year ...
- tgc1, on 10/26/2009, -0/+6Don't forget your kiss branded shamwow!
- twodollars, on 10/26/2009, -0/+6You didn't miss anything, they have always sucked.
- jwitz, on 10/25/2009, -0/+5I assume the similarity between those two is probably old news, but mind = blown.
- twodollars, on 10/26/2009, -0/+5Or your Dr. Pepper with a KISS of cherry!
- tallulahvulture, on 10/26/2009, -1/+6not really.
- jrm125, on 10/25/2009, -2/+7blame Kurt (or Courtney)
- shiftkgb, on 10/26/2009, -1/+5Wow, owned.
- inactive, on 10/26/2009, -1/+5It's just the thing that cool kids say right now instead of coming up with something new. I'm no Nickleback fan, but I am a fan of fresh jokes... so I'm not overly impressed.
- MAGZine, on 10/26/2009, -0/+3LOL. That sums it up exactly.
- blackhawk465, on 10/26/2009, -0/+3I can believe it.
- Waynerz99, on 10/26/2009, -0/+3Wtf...
This guy gets +5 diggs. But the fourth comment on this page who wrote RHCP for life" gets -8. I'll never understand the average digger... - errik03, on 10/26/2009, -0/+2Hell yea! Frusciante is the *****!
- SookIt, on 10/26/2009, -0/+2wow, you are stupid
- errik03, on 10/26/2009, -0/+2YEa I agree this is a damn good book, its not some rags to riches bs story. Its about Music, drugs, addiction,adolescence, sex and affection. Good read
- OfoarHeffinsake, on 10/26/2009, -0/+2If you like fresh jokes, then internet communities are not for you. Around here we parrot jokes other people came up with, and we parrot them without shame or remorse! Screw originality! I can fake being funny with lolcats and no one will know the difference!
- MaxPowers, on 10/26/2009, -0/+2God I love that song.
- tehWyman, on 10/26/2009, -0/+2I am glad I'm not the only one who faced this grammarial dilemma.
- KahRahTay, on 10/30/2009, -0/+1hopefully this keeps anyone else from having to listen to as much of that shakira song as i just did, but what i think he's talking about is
shakira starting at 0:51is slightly similar to rhcp starting at 0:21 - itlnstln, on 10/26/2009, -5/+6RHCP Forever. Their ability to take funk and many other types of music and make them appeal to todays auidiance is just one of the many reasons that this band will be around for a long long time to come!
- HalsMyPal, on 10/25/2009, -6/+7and i am happy they arn't
(not sayin i am happy Kurt died just that they were unable to make any more overrated music) - TBombadil, on 11/01/2009, -0/+1they clearly are not fan's of acronyms.
- dontlookleft, on 10/26/2009, -2/+3What's wrong with you?
- thejackyl, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1Dugg up for actually using the term "alternative rock" correctly.
- codyman, on 10/26/2009, -0/+1Loudness war, anyone?
- inactive, on 10/26/2009, -0/+1Awesome footage
- KahRahTay, on 10/30/2009, -0/+1from my observations, it likely has something to do with the fact that many people aren't exactly sure about the correct pronunciation of the word cicada and would rather use a different word than look it up.
- thejackyl, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1The Chili Peppers used to be pretty cool. I'm pretty sick of them now though. Mostly I'm just sick of Anthony Kiedis's terrible lyrics and singing/rapping.
- inactive, on 10/26/2009, -0/+1"If you like fresh jokes, then internet communities are not for you"
Touché. - thejackyl, on 10/27/2009, -1/+1hahahahahahahahahaha
- Carinix, on 10/26/2009, -1/+1I think mparker is a bit crazy, I didn't even hear anything similar. If he means in meaning, then so what, artists can describe the same message in a song a different way, more power to them.
