I don’t even think I could hold a 30 second conversation with Eminem. I like his music but I feel we’d be like 2 aliens meeting each other. What I do know is that we’d both enjoy the hell out of those M&M’s! Hands down, better choice.
If I remember correctly it largely started because of some joking comment by some famous person decades ago. And because of early internet it was a early form of meme. It was something you repeated, it was the cool funny thing to say. And then I think people started to forget that they weren't to take it seriously. So they start saying they hated a band and had absolutely no idea why other than 'that's just what you say'
It’s weird, I hated them the very first time I saw their first video in MTV (just as mtv was about to finish killing off the music in their channel).
I think it was the combination of complete gener-rock, d-bag lead singer, and stupidly over dramatic nothing lyrics. All I know is it was instant that I know I didn’t like them.
Has a similar response to Bush (the soap ballad band) in the 90s.
I'm fine with Nickelback, but their six or seven nearly identical sounding songs got old and I stopped wanting to listen to them. Never really dove into the "we officially hate Nickelback the same way we officially hate New Jersey" kind of thing.

I'd take the 50 cents as long as I don't end up with 5 cents. I don't want a Nickelback.

Joking aside, we don't actually still hate Nickelback, right?
Not gonna lie; I jumped on the bandwagon too, but I don't believe that they actually deserve the hate.

I don't think we ever actually hated Nickelback. Jury is out on 3 Doors Down, though.

Eminem seems like a pretty cool guy. Don't know much about 50 other than that he got shot 9 times and owned vitamin water.

Purchase 50c worth of m&ms from 50s candy shop, then throw them at him if he tries to make me lick the lollipop.

Mocking disabled people, and posting it online is really cool.
