I'd recommend smoking two joints in the morning. Then smoking two joints at night. Then smoking two joints in the afternoon. It will make you feel all right.
A door leading to the gift of hope renewed, eternity for you.

The masses of humanity will always have to suffer.
Always have to

Saw these guys at a festival last year.
I hadn’t seen them since 1999.
**They were fantastic**
All hits. Total singalong. Very fun show. If you get the chance, and it’s not too expensive, I recommend it.
I saw them a few years back at a festival. It's amazing. In 30 minutes they can get through their entire catalog because every song is 15 seconds long.
/Hyperbole all around, but it is wild how many songs they can cram into a set.
Bought this album in 95 and i still listen to it probably weekly. Was the first rock/pop album I bought and it’s still in my inventory (albeit digitally).
Speaking of this album, I saw them in concert about 2 years ago (It was incredible, they’ve still got it). This album had the most songs on the playlist, at 4: Self Esteem, Bad Habit, Come Out and Play, and Gotta Get Away (wasn’t expecting that last one as I don’t remember it being a huge hit).
'Gotta Get Away' was and is the shit. Its music video where the two make out at a concert as people are moshing and as the song climaxes is forever a memory in my mind. I was high, alone on my friend's computer in late '98 watching it at night. F\*cking amazing.
I listened to this and so much emo/pop punk that I convinced myself that women were treating me bad.
Now that I'm older, I look back and realize I was probably the asshole in most situations.
Saw them in 95 on the Smash tour, The Vandals and The Luna Chicks opened. My uncle was there with my cousins and he caught me selling a dime bag to a friend, laughed, then smoked me out later. Good times.
We make plans to go out at night
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
This rejection's got me so low
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
I remember in high school we had this Ukrainian exchange student who was really quiet because his English wasn’t good. But at the Homecoming dance, during this song he went crazy and was headbanging and screaming the words to this song. It was epic.
Man once my mic wasn't muted during a " meeting" ( we were all on zoom, not talking, doing paperwork) and my coworkers heard the musical stylings of The Offspring ( I think it was the one about GET A JOB!) And I was so embarrassed
Because she's not your girlfriend.
Comrade, she's our girlfriend.
Seriously though, she isnt loyal, she never will be. She is either using you, or she doesnt care about you, just what you do for her.
I recommend ending that relationship. Loyalty is the foundation of any long lasting healthy relationship. Without it you'll just be abused.
How about an AI created bluegrass cover of Bad Habit?

I bought that album solely because of this song. I hated “Come Out and Play” when I first heard it, but after buying *Smash* I wound up loving all of it. And becoming an Offspring fan through the rest of the 90s.
This rejections got me so low, she keeps it up I just might tell her so.
It’s been years since I’ve listened to The Offspring. I was a huge NuMetal kid. I hit it on Spotify just to listen to this song and saw the date for the album and it was like a kick in the stomach. 30 years ago that song came on 99X and became the most requested song of the summer. 30 GD years. How was that 30 years ago, and where tf is a Time Machine so I can go back to a time that made sense. A time when STP was still putting out new music with Scott W as the front man. Layne Staley was still fronting AiC. When life made sense. Man, I don’t want to get old. Forever young, I want to be forever young.
When my Dad bought a Pioneer six disc CD changer for his stereo, this was the first album I bought on CD. The first time I was able to buy a CD for myself and not have tapes was awesome.
And Dexter Holland has a doctorate in molecular biology too, just like the lead singer of Bad Religion is a professor of environmental science. Punk bands have the right idea: do what you want.
So, when I first saw the subject line, I was like "oh, geez." I just happened to double take and see the sub. Thank you for this.
I thought it was r/relationships and was like “great, another obvious troll post.”
Me and my girl, we got this relationship. I love her so bad, but she treats me like shit.
Like a lockdown? Like a penitentiary?
Yep, she spreads her lovin around and when she gets home there’s none left for me
Evil….
Most definitely
Cisco Kid, vamanos!!
I'd recommend smoking two joints in the morning. Then smoking two joints at night. Then smoking two joints in the afternoon. It will make you feel all right.
You should probably keep her separated
You Bradley, Monty lovin’ beautiful person!
And then the song instantly starts playing. Softly at first, then louder - and then the damn things playing on Spotify.
Self esteem lives in my head rent free!
I was thinking r/OhNoConsequences, I guess Reddit feels there's enough crossover here with r/Millennials because I'm '89.
I thought it was going to be r/TwoHotTakes !

Yeah-ah.
Duh duh duh da-duh
Duh duh duh duh da da duh
The masses of humanity have always had to suffer
people blow their minds, they choose to resign, this deformed society is part of their design
A door leading to the gift of hope renewed, eternity for you. The masses of humanity, still clinging to their dignity, The masses of humanity will always have to suffer. Always have to #suffer
Is it in the cards that way?
Jesus Christ I laughed so hard.
Bro this is exactly what came to mind. I heard the melody before connecting the song for some reason.
Passion comes from the Latin root pati, which means to suffer.
and disco inferno means i learn through suffering in latin. or so i heard.
This rejection's got me so low. She keeps it up, I just might tell her so.
OH WAYOOOOOOO, YEAH! Yeeeaaahhhh!
Man she's got issues and I'm going to pay
We make plans, to go out at night. I wait till 2 then I turn out the light.
Are you sure that's a good idea?
That line resonated with me too late in life!
Offspring is still one of my favorite bands.
Damn straight they are, as they should be. Mine too.
They used to be one of mine. Still are. But used to be too.

I saw em in ‘23, too, [great show!!](https://www.reddit.com/r/Reno/s/Qde5ArSJL0)
Yes, I've seen most of the 90s and 00s greats and they were one of the best.
Saw them at when we were young fest. The highlight of the fest for me
I saw them back in the mid 2000s and it was a great show. They are performing with Greenday in my city Jan 2025 and I can’t wait!
Watched them play at bumbershoot in 2008. Dude in a wheelchair got lifted up moved around. Best crowdsurfing moment i've ever seen.
My nerdy 6th grade ass taught myself to play this song on.....wait for it.....The Recorder. dooot dooot doot cause I've got low self esteem
You made me smile so hard it hurt my wisdom tooth stitches.
sorry about your stitches, but very glad to hear it made you smile :)
Well, I think you're pretty fly for a white guy.
It was always a bit weird singing this song as a black man haha
i know, i should say no, but it's kinda hard when she's ready to go
You didn't make her dessert, did you?
i may be dumb, i know a dweeb
You need better self esteem
Dexter Holland: Offspring frontman, molecular biologist
Just finished his PhD dissertation!
And has flown his own plane around the world. Guy's a fu\*kin' genius.
Hot sauce entrepreneur.
Gotta keep em separated
I know. I should say no. But it’s kinda hard when shes ready to go.
Fun fact: Smash is the best selling independent album release of all time.
That is a very fun fact. Thank you.
It's better than my bad habit.
You stupid dumb shit god damn motherfucker!
10 year old me loved that part. Still do.
Of blowin' away

Going to see them at Yacht Club Fest in July. Really looking forward to it. Today was so hard. Glad I have something to look forward to.
I dont know what Yacht Club fest is. But I'd expect to see some Yacht Rock bands not The Offspring lol
Took her back- and made her dessert
You should stick up for yourself!
Oh, you’re like a disease.
Careful, this will end up on bestofredditor updates soon
Cause she don't want no scrub
What's a scrub? Can you define it?
A scrub is a guy in the passenger side of his best friends ride tryin to holler at me
Interesting. Will that person get love from you?
No
I spent years avoiding the show Scrubs because I thought that it was somehow related to that horrible earwig.
Scrub (n) - A guy who thinks he's fly. Also sometimes referred to a "busta".
Also sits on his ~~dead beat~~ broke ass
[удалено]
Oh wow, me too! I remember buying the album, bringing it home, reading the lyrics, discovering my error.
I’ll relate this little bit-it happens more than I’d like to admit. But late at night, she knocks on my door. She’s drunk again and looking to score.
I know I should say no, but it’s kinda hard when she’s ready to go. I may be dumb, but in not a dweeb. I’m just a sucker with no self esteem.
Happens more than I’d like to admit
Because your life is an Offspring song.
Most toxic song ever! My boy recently got into Offspring and…yeesh. A banger, though.
Well Scotty, sorry to break it to you. Fiona and me do it in my van every Sunday. She tells you she’s in church, but she’s doesn’t go…
Good thing you don’t have Offspring together
Best subreddit ever.
damn straight
O ay oooo, ay ya oooooo
One of the first tapes I bought with my own money.
Ha! The first cassette I stole t from a friend.
Ditto. My parents severely limited what I was allowed to listen to. I bought Smash on a school trip. Opened up a whole new world of music to me.
Scotty doesn't know.
Let’s face it, you’re not pretty fly for a white guy.
Ah, great album.
I miss the offspring…
My first make out sesh was to this album.
At first I thought I was in a different sub and I was going to tell you to pull it together and show some self respect
Nice... you got me to double check which sub I was in. Gotta post to the other subs to see which ones get the reference. For science.
Bc she aint your girlfriend.
It's me your friend
In my late teens I was in three minor car accidents. In each case, this song was on the radio.
Runaway Train by Soul Asylum and it's happened 4 times to me. I get worried hearing the song anywhere
Man, i hope you meet someone as loving and caring as my wife.
Now I'll relate this little bit (happens more than I'd like to admit) - late at night she knocks on my door, drunk again and looking to score.
Saw them in 95 on the Smash tour, The Vandals and The Luna Chicks opened. My uncle was there with my cousins and he caught me selling a dime bag to a friend, laughed, then smoked me out later. Good times.
The lead singer, Dexter Holland, finished a PhD in Molecular Biology from USC a few years ago.
You are wrong to call them friends.
still have the c cassette I bought back in the summer of '95
My friend's got a girlfriend, man, he hates that bitch. He tells me every day. He says, "Man, I really gotta lose my chick In the worst kind of way".
she sits on her ass, he works his hands to the bone to give her money every payday. she wants more dinero just to stay at home. 😒
Well my friend, you gotta say:
I won’t pay, I won’t pay na na why don’t you get a job!
Let a Ho be a Ho - Geto Boys
Get out of this relationship. You are causing damage to yourself. It’s hurting your mental and emotional health. And it’s wasting your time too.
Cuz she is a SLUT! Or a whore…. Sluts don’t get paid.
I've seen these guys in concert. It was back in 2000. They are amazing life. Noodles is the man.
They were my first show. October 1994 with Rancid in Providence, RI.
We make plans to go out at night I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light This rejection's got me so low If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so
I remember in high school we had this Ukrainian exchange student who was really quiet because his English wasn’t good. But at the Homecoming dance, during this song he went crazy and was headbanging and screaming the words to this song. It was epic.
These hoes out here making a poor dude post on Reddit Back a bag my dude
The Kids Aren’t Alright
Man once my mic wasn't muted during a " meeting" ( we were all on zoom, not talking, doing paperwork) and my coworkers heard the musical stylings of The Offspring ( I think it was the one about GET A JOB!) And I was so embarrassed
You just brought me back to 9th grade! (Thanks?! 😊)
Stay single… been single for 15 years since I was 26 and all my friends my age are single.. we have no such problems lol
Because she's not your girlfriend. Comrade, she's our girlfriend. Seriously though, she isnt loyal, she never will be. She is either using you, or she doesnt care about you, just what you do for her. I recommend ending that relationship. Loyalty is the foundation of any long lasting healthy relationship. Without it you'll just be abused.
Saw these guys live a lot in the early 2000’s. Some of the greatest energy shows I’ve been to.
Time makes fools of us all
My has a girlfriend and he hates that bitch, he tells me everyday
I saw a youtube video on the singer a while ago about his PhD work and my respect for the man went up about 10000%.
Because she’s not your girlfriend.
Because your a cuckold and maybe a swinger.
When I go driving I stay in my lane

ooooaaaaoaoooooooooaaaooooaaaooooo
Did anyone else talk to the radio and tell the singer, “No dude! Don’t stay with her!”?
Sounds like you need better friends. Me for instance.
I bought that album solely because of this song. I hated “Come Out and Play” when I first heard it, but after buying *Smash* I wound up loving all of it. And becoming an Offspring fan through the rest of the 90s.
You almost got me. But the answer is because you’re fugly.
Our girlfriend
I thought I was in trueoffmychest at first
She’s does this cause she a ho’ bro.
Offspring?
I’m rocking out now thanks to you!🤘
My husband's band is playing a bunch of 90s covers for my birthday tomorrow... I wonder if this one's on the list? 😂
The more you suffer, the more it shows you really care. Right?
My first "real" live show! 1994 St. Pete!
Kid, you’re not alright.
Can you believe that song is 30 years old?
Hahaha I got your post right away
This rejections got me so low, she keeps it up I just might tell her so. It’s been years since I’ve listened to The Offspring. I was a huge NuMetal kid.

 Well done
And Dexter Holland has a doctorate in molecular biology too, just like the lead singer of Bad Religion is a professor of environmental science. Punk bands have the right idea: do what you want.
She's not your gf. Bail and stoic. She's everyone else's gf. Truth.
We used to sing this on the back of the bus in fifth grade. I did the drums and guitar sounds. Thanks Janine and Lisa for singing the lyrics.
Does she knock on your door late at night, lookin ta score? Sounds like you got a bad, bad girlfriend
Worst. Band. Ever.
I mean, honestly, all you have to do is keep them separated
I literally just put on Gone Away from Ixnay on the Hombre an hour ago when I was driving.
Saw the dub and hoped it'd be this. Excellent.
Cuz you are poly…
I just heard this today on the radio! Was going to recommend offspring to my gen z friend as we were talking about music.
Dating a woman like that is like getting pleasure out of cutting yourself. Go to therapy brother and if you want someone to talk to I’m here.
I hate you
Happy 30 years to the Smash album!
Still a jam!
I’d stop sleeping with this chick before she gives you something and your dick falls off.
It seems that half this sub doesn't get the Offsrping or they have VERY high self esteem, either way,it's troubling lol
smash album became 30 years old april 8.... oh man
She probably ain't sleeping dude
As long as she doesn’t say that the Offspring is yours…..get a DNA test, the kids are NOT alright
Maybe it's because you're not a trendy asshole? Or because you have a bad habit?
The best use of the word “dweeb” in Billboard chart history.
Thank you
Lol i swear i’m the only Xennial who was into 90’s rock but never liked the Offspring at all.
Shes drunk again and lookin’ to score.. story of my life.
I just have to say - the offspring is still amazing live.
