omg nate we love you so much mike, you're alright

Lol I'm going to be your second like.

Now we know why Mike was the only one making music during the hiatus, the other bands members were living under a rock apparently

[@Jellyonpizza]

I only know the drummer got his PhD... so he was actually busy haha.

[@tomstable736]

Except Nate wasn't in the band originally, so not technically part of their hiatus- and he did make music during that time.

Never Meant memes got me into american football, so no, Mike, we're not making fun of you

[@tazmon122]

in it's very essence, memes are using the enigmatic, the awkward, the uncanny as a form of parody. pretty much it's like 1 step removed from David Foster Wallace's musings on irony.....however all this doesn't matter because you have an anime avatar you dirty bridge troll.

[@TheDude4077]

Their meme is like the exact opposite of the smash mouth meme! The gag of the All Star meme is that's it's an over saturation of a song that is generally held to be bad, but the gag of the Never Meant meme is that it's an over saturation of a song that is generally understood to be good.

[@MyoticTesseract]

I don't think it's so much All Star being bad so much as it is tacky, corny, poppy, etc. I haven't seen many Never Meant memes yet, but the funny thing about them is probably the fact that they're meme-ing such a serious and non-poppy song/band lol

[@bennyboy2414]

I mean a lot of people consider American Football to be the most bland midwest emo group ever. Mike Kinsella has done so much better with others.

Bradley Cooper: "I can see his insecurities every time I see his face" LMAO!!!

We're not doing it to make fun of you!!! We do it because the song is such an emo banger and lovable that putting it out of context is so jarring and ridiculous.

[@TheCarrots101]

Mike's such an amazing dude. Was in Cap'n Jazz and American Football, probably two of the most influential emo bands ever, and he seems super chill. Big love

[@TommyDoesMusic]

(My response to never meant memes) while I find them funny, I love the authenticity of the song and it seriously changed me

[@UntitledNameGangIsTouringAmmos]

I feel like the Never Meant memes are done out of genuine love and appreciation. They are usually atleast well crafted memes. Plus that song is just an absolute banger. I feel like people appreciate American Football unironically far far more than Smash Mouth.

[@jodiallardice1500]

My manz doesn’t know what asmr is *hI DaD

[@MaddestMousse]

It's actually so unbelievably interesting and great to hear Mike's feedback on the whole meme thing, I feel the same way and it's not even my band or song(s). like why and how did American Football become this smash mouth tier Internet meme culture thing? Like it's kind of irritating actually, seems like almost all the American Football love on the Internet is laced with either this ironic sensibility and/or memes, like American football and their songs are just a platform to make annoying self-referencing jokes regarding the word "emo" and it's perceived facets, like the songs or band is funny somehow and not actually good music. It's cool to at least see that they clearly aren't totally comfortable with it and kinda wonder where it's coming from, like Nate said haha it's not like they're smash mouth or something, so the feeling like they're being made fun of like Mike talks about, of course seems unwarranted and misguided. I understand that a lot of it is sarcastic and the people making fun of American football probably actually like them and are also making fun of themselves, and its a loving type of making fun or they're being ironic or whatever, etc. etc. but do they really like American football though? Certainly not as much as they do perpetuating their existence as mainly just an Internet meme now and something to be referenced in the context of a joke. Frankly, the whole thing has gotten old, and it would be piss me off too if it were my band, even more than it already does.

[@MaddestMousse]

I mean if we are talking specifically about the never meant audio switch-out memes yeah it was fucking hilarious the first 17 times and there are a couple pretty good ones out there but it opened up a fucking can of worms for sure and it certainly has lost it's magic and become pretty damn belabored.

American Football always felt kinda underappreciated to me because I’ve been listening to them for over a decade when i used to browse /mu/ To see them blow up like this is kinda crazy

[@RozoTheGreat]

They were never that underrated though, LP¹ is basically babby's first emo record, as well as babby's first mathrock. They're almost constantly touted as the most listenable, easy "in" to those genres and deservedly so. It's a legendary record.

Bradley Cooper is probably rated, the dude is super talented

[@Sab_MJsMama]

He is insecure. He was totally embarrassed that A Star is Born didn't win the big awards = he didn't win best film/director or whatever the hell it was nominated for. The fact that this was reported is pretty pathetic, actually.

[@JoshJimenez_]

@@Sab_MJsMama I had no idea he was like that

[@Sab_MJsMama]

@@JoshJimenez_ Honestly, I don't know the man but I follow/have followed celebs and this is only my instinct. He seems on the surface really impressive but I think he overcompensates. Plus, his personal life before he blew up was...rocky. He's the picture of a person that's willing to do anything to get to the top. Again, the fact that it's been reported that he was upset for not getting those awards, to me, speaks volumes. But who am I except a person that admires creative people but I refuse to put them up on a pedestal like we tend to do here. ;)
