    We know that Weezer kinda sucks now, you can't really deny that at this point. But what if that one disenfranchised fan did actually accrue ten million dollars to just get them to quit? Would you pony up ten bucks for another copy of Pinkerton already knowing that it is totally the best Weezer album and they'll never outdo it? This comes at the price knowing they will totally never make another troutty album with two good songs on it again.

    Me? I'll forget about the average-ness of the Green Album and the two good tracks from Maladroit and whatever the smurf else, Pork and Beans is a really good song but this is for the greater good.

    this is the single longest thread about Weezer ever posted at these here forums

    I like The Green Album. Of the stuff since then The Greatest Man That Ever Lived is my favourite by miles.

    Anyway bands going downhill is par for the course really. So I'm happy to let Weezer rumble on.

    Wait... Weezer had two good songs? What songs are these?
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Let's be fair here, not many bands could outdo Pinkerton. Then again, it's like Rivers hasn't even been trying since about 2002.

    Pinkerton is gold, but I'm pretty partial to The Blue Album. Things started going downhill for me with Make Believe. I thought, "ehh, this is okay, but most of it kindof sucks."

    It's safe for me to say I have not heard anything past Make Believe, so I will take your word that they have indeed hit the downward spiral.
