10 Signs That Pop Punk Has Taken Over Your Life

Tie-Dye shirts, khaki pants, flannels, dad hats, pizza and the list of cliches goes on. In a scene full of cliches, it is often hard to explain the phenomenon that is pop punk. In the last few years, the pop-punk revival has been lead by The Story So Far, Man Overboard, Knuckle Puck, Real Friends, and Neck Deep. These bands have redefined prior years of pop punk when it first grew popular in the 90's and again in late 2000's. For the third time, pop punk has made a comeback.

This time, however, it has a strong sense of irony. The overuse of the word pop punk has become a cliche. Often, expressions like "is this pop punk," "I'm too pop punk" and even the creation of "pop punk princess" have been created due to the revival. So here are 10 signs the pop punk revival has taken over your life:

1. Eating pizza for every meal.

You eat pizza for every meal for a few reasons: pizza's cheap, you're a picky eater, so you can Tweet about it.

2. Referring to yourself as pop punk trash or a pop punk princess.

There's no other way to describe yourself than either trash or a princess.

3. You pretend to hate your hometown.

In reality, it's probably not that bad.

4. Every band shirt you own is tie-dye.

Circa warped tour 2014, every band shirt that came out was tie-dye. Unfortunately, the trend never died and you continue to surround yourself in everything tie-dye.

5. You're guilty of having sleepy eyes and bonier knees.

Although mentioning in several real friends songs, it's also become an emotional state for you. It's a way to describe your mood and emotions.

6. You bought band merch because everyone on Twitter has it.

Specifically, the knuckle puck dad hate. Upon receiving, you put on your dog and tweeted a picture to knuckle puck because that's what everyone else is doing.


7. You low-key really do love pop punk.

This really doesn't need any further explanation because you would literally die for pop punk.

8. Celebrating the 182nd day of the year like it's a holiday.

it's July 1st, 2016 of this year, otherwise known as Blink-182 day.

9. No one understands.

Mom and Dad just don't understand. Along with them, a lot of your friends don't understand your weird obsession with all things pertaining to pop punk nor do they understand the emotional meaning the music has to you.

No, really, they don't. You spend hours convincing them to let you go to a concert up until you remember you're old enough to not need their permission.

10. You've cried to a pop punk band one too many times.

Despite all these cliches, you're actually really emotional. Pop punk music reaches your heart in a special way.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
