4chan greentext post about umm country vs punk. True story from 2008.

>be me, dumbass 13y/o in 2008
>school counselor plays some lame country song 'Don't Laugh at Me' by Mark Willis
>me and friends make up own stupid lyrics 'Don't laugh at me, don't call me names unless you're gay'
>original song sounds whiny and boring, can't relate
>later in life discover Lagwagon cover, it hits different
>Joey Cape's vocals are so much more relatable and powerful than Mark Willis's
>in 2008, I was already into skate punk bands like Lagwagon, NOFX, and Blink-182
>their music spoke to me - youthful rebellion, social alienation, personal struggle
>these bands gave me an outlet for my frustrations and feelings
>Mark Willis sounds like a whiny nerd who'll off himself, Lagwagon's version would've kept me from drowning in depression as a bullied middle schooler
>curious, what other lame country songs did my school counselor play back in the day?
>2008 was a shit year, maybe that's why I gravitated towards punk music so intensely
>anyway, Lagwagon 4ever, country sucks dick
