Don't you guys know that Avril Lavigne is more punk than the Sex Pistols?


Bollocks


No really, she said so on Much.


Let see did she make a number one hit single that was considered too offensive so it was banned and the number one chart was left blank.

Was she opening mentioned in parliment under the traitors act.

Has she ever been knifed.

Do singing Christian nutjobs stand outside her shows and try to stop people from walking in.


I don't know. Last year while doing my history of rock music lesson I played some Sex Pistols for my students. I've also done a few Avril Lavigne songs and videos with my kids and they all seem to think she's cooler. Did you know that she has two tattoos, of a star and a heart, that she's a vegetarian and that her favourite food is pizza with olive toppings?

This doesn't surprise me. How many of these students who claim they like Anvil more wear Ramones T-shirts and have absolutely no idea who they were.

Some of my students are pretty cool and sub-culturally astute. A few of them have photos of every member of Big Bang cut out and pasted to their desk and I'd reckon up to 20% of them could do the Wondergirls' Tell Me dance. A couple of my really punk students even wear knee-high, mis-matched socks. Now that's gotta be more punk than Debbie Gibson.

Ask them if they know of Skunk Hell in Hongdae.

Well, if the committee deems punk/post-punk/disco/new-wave/dischordant-reggae/faux-opera female VOCALISTS as eligible for nomination, then one might consider Nina Hagen among the best punk female VOCALISTS.

She would've been my first choice if I was just sticking with punk.

She's one of the people I would put on my theoretical "If a plane was crashing who would you want to be on it" plane. Avril is a good argument for abortion. The only way you could call Avril punk is if you take into account how much more punk she makes me, as in it makes me want to punch girls who look like her in the face. I wouldn't even rape Avril. I hope she pokes her eye out with the mascara brush. Avril is proof Canadians are pussies. Avril is proof the Devil is real and you can sell your soul for success, but that wily old Morningstar will twist the wish into success while sucking. Avril is a war criminal. Avril was one of the ways the Gitmo boys tortured their prisoners. Everytime I see Avril I go days without an erection. I would pay to see Tori Amos fight Avril.


Whoa. I know you're joking, but do I really have to be the one to say that normalizing rape isn't funny?

Okay, again, i can tell you're joking, but I still feel the need to point out that a woman isn't the same as a bong or whatever. RACETRAITOR, why is it wrong to talk about Black men as though they are chattel imbued with no sense of personal agency, but okay to make a joke like this? I guess this is a good reminder that being anti-racist is not the same thing as being anti-oppression.

I'm pretty disgusted with the misogynist crap posted here by Poly Styrene "fans." I think both you and Czerjorge need to give Oh Bondage Up Yours! a closer listen.

She's probably done more to bring punk down than any other single person this millennium, so I really have no sympathy for her femininity or whatever she carries around down there. She's probably had more degrading sex from her agents and producers than I could ever dream up.

By the way, I'm not anti-racist. There's nothing wrong with making fun of the black people who deserve it.

If it's normalizing rape to say all the hacks, male and female, should be stuffed, then yes, you have to say it.

Please look up Neil Hamburger or any other punk comics then get back to me.

This is not about having sympathy for a totally hateable popstar, this is about the fact that you seem to have confused real women with blow-up dolls.

Also, sorry about thinking that you were anti-racist. I clearly misjudged you. Most of the time when I hear skinheads whinging about how you're not all neo-nazis, it comes from SHARP types. I tend to forget that some of you simply dislike hair or whatever. By the way, you're right. Your joke translates with hilarious results into a racial slur: Imagine a couple of white landowners in Virginia - "Man, I hate listening to that f*ing Wu-Tang Clan, but they'd be ok for picking cotton!!" Funny stuff for sure.

If I have to spell it out: Basically, when you say "I wouldn't even rape Avril" you're saying "There are lots of people I would rape and that's ok, but I wouldn't rape avril 'cause I hate her so much." Remind me never to get on your good side.

And I'm through playing punkier-than-thou with you, so you can relax, ok?
