[edit] Emo, Sell-outs

Can someone put in something about this?

But they aren't emo band. There is a bigger definition for the emo label than "I don't like them".
They are neither emo nor sell-outs. "Selling out" implies changing one's music to be popular, which BFS hasn't done; all of their albums sound similar, even after their mainstream success with "1985."

[edit] She wears a two-way

I've always wondered: "She wears a two-way but I'm not quite sure what that means" What does it mean that she wears a two-way? Police officer, security guard, drug runner? --Slashme 07:41, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

For what it's worth, it appears to be a type of thong, because the radio reference doesn't quite make sense. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=two-way --anonymous comment

I have big reservations about anything on "urban dictionary". Anyway, if the radio reference doesn't quite make sense, the "two way thong" idea really doesn't make much sense here.--Slashme 09:22, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

I think it's supposed to play on the ambiguous meaning of the phrase. Is it a two-way thong or a two-way pager? Get it? --anonymous comment

On the bowling for soup website in the uk, Jaret says that it is pager that both recieves and sends out messages. --anonymous comment 2

[edit] 1985

On the album sleeve the writing credit for this song is Reddick but that is not mentioned here. Also I don't beleive the comment above about Emo Sellouts is justified.

[edit] WWW.YOUBOTHSUCK.COM

Ok I know about the caps but thats so it gets attention.... or not... w/e.... it's the website mention in Luckiest Loser and it's real... I tried to add it to the external links because it's "under construction" but I don't know how to properly do it every time I try it ends up being called [2] —The preceding unsigned comment was added by DarkAvenger280 (talk • contribs) 05:58, 24 February 2007 (UTC).


[edit] Hi - just checking....................... == 

but the article says Bowling for Soup won a Nobel Peace prize? I'm having trouble believing that....


you are an idiot.


Oh my gods! The durfwad can read *and* type!!! Certainly an improvement over the last model. I'm glad to see there are mercifully few lingering effects on one whom most obviously appears to have been sodomized by Care Bears and/or mountain goats in the past. Congratulations, and give my regards to the nurse who changes your diaper.

PS: May the scent of your butthole fill your nostrils........

[edit] Trivia

I relocated the trivia item about their videos and deleted the item about Jaret's mother and the birth control pills. I couldn't find any sources for it. I'll be happy to put it back in if anyone can find me a source for it. Chrissypan 14:45, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gary Wiseman

Hi there, I was sorting out orphaned and uncategorized articles and came across the page for Gary Wiseman. I have stuck it in a few categories, added the BFS infobox, linked it up and performed some minor copyediting but it is in major need of attention from someone interested in BFS. Just flagging it up here in case anyone is interested in doing something with it to bring it up to the same standard as the other members' pages. Thanks! Sassf (talk) 23:57, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
