Pop punk has been around for quite a few decades, but the cult following has never changed.

In the modern age, pop punk can be defined as a nonstop pizza party where everyone wants to be tough and cool, but they're all soft little flowers in reality.

Pop punk is so identifiable. Youtuber Jarrod Alonge has created a pop punk parody band that's extremely accurate -- and catchy. He's also created an "Every Pop Punk Vocalist" video which is just about perfect in depicting band members.

Needless to say, pop punk is pretty consistent. Every fan has experienced similar situations. Being the fragile flowers we are, we've also experienced many of the same problems.

These are some truly tragic struggles every pop punk fan has been through.


1. You can't decide which flannel to wear when it gets cool outside.

2. You don't have enough friends to put together an acoustic pop punk bonfire sesh.

3. Your nose ring broke or you lost the ball to your septum ring.

4. The windbreaker your favorite band is selling is sold out in your size.

5. You can't afford a Penny board.

6. Sally's Beauty Supply doesn't have the right color of Manic Panic in stock.

7. You missed a sale at Vans.

8. The record store doesn't carry vinyl for your favorite band.

9. You didn't hear about that secret show happening downtown in time.


10. You're not sure how to fill in the blank for a "Stay ______" tattoo.

11. That one song reminds you of your ex too much.

12. Actually, that whole album reminds you of your ex too much.

13. You want to get out of your town, but you also love it a lot too???

14. You don't have enough friends to sing gang vocals.

15. You don't know if you should buy a pizza or records.

16. You ran out of room for stickers on your laptop.

17. The Warped Tour lineup isn't pop punk enough.

18. You want to go to a living room show, but no one's performing in living rooms.

19. You want to mosh, but you're also a fragile baby or something like that.

20. You have a hard time finding people who like the same eras or styles of pop punk as you.

21. You cry thinking about if you couldn't #DefendPopPunk.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
