  • I never watched his stuff in his “glory” days of yore, but he popped up in videos from Magnus the bouldering/rock climbing guy, and that showed him under a new light. Then I saw his Linux arc and started gaining more respect for him. It seems he’s kind of retired from the brain dead content and now has that new dad energy which I vibe with a lot more. Still not watching him regularly though, I don’t know what the rest of his content is like.










  • It’s definitely a home made and personal distinction but basically for me pop-punk is reserved for the ones I don’t like haha. It has a negative side so I needed another term for the (admittedly) pop punk bands that I do like. Again you’re probably right, that’s just the way I do it internally. And I just use it to describe the sound, Millencollin for example is Swedish. Also there’s bands like bad religion that still kinda have that sound but I wouldn’t dare classify them under “pop”, I’m sure NOFX would take an issue with it too, etc.


  • I’ve never stopped listening to “Cali punk” so I’m good to go (I don’t care if green day is really from California or not, that’s what I call the happy poppy punk that’s not crusty enough to be called punk without a qualifier: NOFX, Offspring, Blink 182, Millencollin, etc etc).
