Ask DB1: Is the Band “Nickelback” Douchey?

—-
Hey DB1,

Can you please explain, in your infinite wisdom, as to why the band, Nickelback, are douchebags? One of my friends loves the band, and I try to explain why they are douchey (cliched lyrics – for example)….Can you do a good essay-like rant like you did with Dane Cook? I’d love to hear your opinion on this subject.

It’s not that the band has no talent. They just don’t seem to want to use any of it.

Cheers mate,

No essay needed, good sir. I refer thee to “Exhibit A” pictured here. Or, for more on Nickelbaggery, go here. It’s not that they’re shallow fratpuke kegger tune constructing simpletons. Heck, Hootie and the Blowfish was that. But Hootie knew what they were.

Nickelback thinks it’s something profound.

And for that, they’re a two chord in search of a resolve. They’re a sus-4 in search of pentatonic blues, with nary a bridge in sight.

Nickelsack doesn’t deserve to sniff Layne Staley’s decomposing taint, and every time someone mentions AIC and Nicklebackdoor in the same sentence, as they seem to often do, Santa himself vomits with rage.

True story.

p.s. Boatbutter, you mean “googol.”

Mr. White, “googol” indeed.

7:28 am March, 16 Bagnonymous said...

Frankly, I’m glad that Bob Costas & the NBC crew cut away from these f*ckers at the olympic closing ceremonies. If I have to hear another one of their faux-angry fist-pumping sing-alongs, I’m gonna dig up Momma Cass’s corpse and kick her in the testicles.

Oh, and by the way…

Chad Kroeger’s head is so big that it blocks the JumboTron when they play live at Cowboy Stadium.

7:39 am March, 16 Justin said...

I can’t stand Nickleback.

Chad Kroeger’s head is so damn large he uses a pool cover for a shower cap.

7:45 am March, 16 Bagnonymous said...

Witness, in the picture above: Chad had to rip the collar of his vintage-faded t-shirt to fit it over his damn head. The picture don’t lie, my friends.

8:09 am March, 16 Mr. White said...

@End the Haberdouchery

Oh, c’mon, I laughed at the Israeli one and the “eating the first girl he kissed” one. Don’t let the general relativistic effects from CK’s ginormous noggin’ distort your own self esteem.

8:59 am March, 16 Dr. Bunsen HoneyDouche said...

I once saw a movie on CK’s forehead at a drive-in movie theater. True story.

9:00 am March, 16 Mr. White said...

@Bunsen

Was it Spinal Tap?

9:13 am March, 16 End the Haberdouchery said...

Mr. White,

I appreciate the love. Sometimes I feel like a boy amongst men with the consistently impressive level of funny here. On that note,

Chad Kroeger’s head is so big that a donation to Locks of Love would successfully coif all cancer victims, bald people, and half of Charles Barkley.

9:33 am March, 16 Dr. Bunsen HoneyDouche said...

@ Mr. White aka The Math Nazi

No, I think it was “300”. CK seemed to like the idea of all of those “warriors” running around with their junk so close to his mouth. If I remember correctly he liked all the scenes with Xeres the best.

9:40 am March, 16 saulgoode42 said...

There should be more threads like this.

Chad Kroeger’s head is so big that Santana swung a stick at it cause he thought it was a piñata.

9:41 am March, 16 Mr. White said...

@bunsen

I’ll let CK off the hook on Xerxes. If I remember correctly, that guy had a damn sexy (significantly digitally altered) voice. Don’t we all want to be gently caressed by a semi-mythical, multiply pierced Persian king sometimes? Don’t we?

9:42 am March, 16 Dr. Bunsen HoneyDouche said...

CK’s head is so big that I just finished a successful coup and have declared myself dictator for life!

9:44 am March, 16 Dr. Bunsen HoneyDouche said...

@ Mr. White

I thought you had the Xeres costume for the playpen. No?

9:49 am March, 16 nothingman said...

It’s a shame that MTV no longer plays 4-piece rock music. Otherwise, a better, more substantial band might’ve taken NB’s place in the rotation for the better.

I guess they’re just content to not try any harder than be simple, dumb music for strip clubs. With all that success, you think they could afford to try a few more interesting things here and there.

At least we’ll always have Linkin Park!

Danny Carey has a Diablo, too. Does that make him a douchebag?

CK’s head is so big that a headband can only be put on him by 2 sherpas and a trained mountain goat.

10:03 am March, 16 saulgoode42 said...

Danny Carey could have an entire custom Ed Hardy drum set made for himself and still not be a douchebag. Because he is a God. And he would never do that anyway.

10:06 am March, 16 saulgoode42 said...

Chad Kroeger’s head is so big Danny Carey used it for a djembe and didn’t even have to hollow it out.

No, worse. they are the reincarnation of another Vancouver douchegroup: Loverboy – http://www.thesharkbook.com/blog/uploaded_images/loverboy-737819.jpg

I’m from Vancouver, the adopted home town of nickleback.

Want to know how douchey nickelback is? When Chad Kroeger was arrested for DUI, he made a huge fuss about getting a special tow truck for his lamborghini so it wouldn’t be damaged. THEN in court he complained that because it took so long to get said tow truck, is created an unreasonable delay in his arrest. He was convicted.

We all know only a douchebag drives drunk. Chad Kroeger drove drunk, ero Douchebag.

@Mr. White –

Maybe boatbutter meant “Google” in the sense that we can find just about anything in or on Chad Kroeger’s head.

Too late for a save?

I had no idea that Chris Kattan did such an excellent Russell Brand impersonation.

All of the above FTW. Best thread in a long time.

To answer the question simply: Yes.

To answer the question Medusa style, one only has to look at Chad Kroeger. Then picture these words coming out of the blowhole in that giant noggin. VOMIT. Yes. Superdouche.

2:08 pm March, 16 Dr. Bunsen HoneyDouche said...

CK is so narcissistic that he thinks everything revolves around him. He’s right because the gravitational field is so strong that everything really does. Scientific fact.
