    Someone doesn’t know their months….

    For one thing, there are twelve of them, not eleven. And I won’t even get started on the order…. ;p

  2. RJ says:

    What the hell? What the HELL? This is funny in what universe?

  3. Zeph says:

    Send this one on over to FAIL blog

  4. Awesome Evie says:

    …months are not in order…>.> I mean, i get it that he hates them..i mean, who doesn’t? but..i think it could have been better? maybe? i dunno. HI! <3

  5. Dimeback says:

    Apparently this person is planning on attending a while crapload of shows in October, and is trying to mask that by mixing up the months and excluding October.

  6. feistycat says:

    Nickleback sucks.

  7. Beams says:

    Why do we need to this person dislikes Nickelback, again?

  8. kittyz4 says:

    hey nickle back does not suck. there actually pretty good

    • Grammar Nazi says:

      Hey, it’s spelled “Nickelback,” you didn’t use appropriate punctuation, and you used a homophone of “they’re.” Well done. I’m sure we’ll all take your opinion seriously.

      • Homer says:

        Leave the 15 year old girl alone. She is not old enough to understand the difference between “rock” and “pop”.

        • A Random Pooka says:

          Hey, despite all the glaring errors with this graph. The point was that Nikkilbacque sucks. I’m not saying you’re wrong for liking them, I’m just saying there are so many other bands out there with far more talent that focusing on one that’s mediocre is like going to a Silverchair cover band concert

          • Jynxie says:

            Uh..Nickelback isn’t spelt Nikkilbacque…Just where did you get that spelling?

            • Habadasher says:

              Oh dear…

            • Atchy says:

              Pretty sure that was sarcasm on account of the previous error. Also, why are we scarring off the teenage girls? Their contribution makes the comment section far more lol.

              • A Random Pooka says:

                Thanks, Atchy. That kind of was the point. It doesn’t matter how you rearrange the letters in their name or what phoenetics you use to get the pronunciation. They still suck.

                Which reminds me?

                What has 9 arms and sucks?

                Def Lepard (Note the related spelling issues! That’s almost a TLL!!)

                • gow says:

                  omfg why does everyone on this site fail when it comes to talent, leapard Is a very talented band

                  • WorldsTallestMidget says:

                    lepprrd isnt nearly as awesome as Sticks!
                    STIKKS RULZ!

                    • Pablo says:

                      Leppard and Nickleback are both produced by the same guy. His philosophy is “if you want to play to arenas, write songs that sound good played in arenas.” So they both write nonsense with easy hooks that sound good played in arenas. Everyone sings along and has a good time. It’s what they’re designed to do.

                      Personally I think the lead singer of Nickleback is a complete douchebag (you stole thousands of dollars from the office of your high school? really? What high school has thousands of dollars in cash lying around?), however they do write catchy tunes.

                    • gow says:

                      stix rocks 2

              • Jynxie says:

                I suck at sarcasm, ok?
                *Eyebrow twitch* And you say teenage girls have bad spelling. I thought you said ’scarring’, as in scars, then I read it again and realized you had said ’scaring’, as in scaring off.

        • gow says:

          im 15 and ima dude and nickelback is not pop theres a big diffrence between them and pop, P.S. there awesome, so are alot of other bands like zeplin and mettalica, and creed, and aerosmith and all 80’s rock bands

          • blahblahblah says:

            Lumping Nickelback and Creed in with Zeppelin, Metallica and Aerosmith + horrible grammar and spelling = failingest fail that ever failed.

            You should seriously think about shoving your genitals into a deli slicer.

            • gow says:

              dude i wasn’t saying there all the same i was saying there all great bands, i dont know why i put rock there but w/e, also good job gettin bent out of shape at people on the internet

          • WorldsTallestMidget says:

            GOOD
            GOD
            YOU
            FAIL
            AT
            LIFE
            KILL
            YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

        • WorldsTallestMidget says:

          She’s obviously not old enough to know grammar either. Short bus?

    • Stephanie says:

      Don’t let the scary ass music fans scare you off. Like what you like, why worry about it? So they’re popular, they have a pop rock sound, and personally I find some of their new lyrics cringe worthy?

      Hey, I listened to Spice Girls. I STILL listen to Bowling For Soup. I have over four hundred different Beatles songs on my iPod. Now there are people of people out there that may question my taste, and they could be right – I don’t study music, I’m not interested in what components need to be in place for a good song. I just know that there are some songs that I love to run to, and those are the ones that stick with me no matter how embarrassing (I have Sailor Moon LunarRock – yeah, beat that.)

      Embrace the fact that you have music that you truly enjoy and know that it’s silly to get so worked up over, because loving one band doesn’ mean you can’t find other bands, maybe bands they consider better.

  9. Cori says:

    I prefer “Rock am Ring” with Rammstein, KISS and Muse…

  10. Sarah says:

    How do these crappy graphs keep getting on the front page? Who cares about this guy not liking Nickelback? I could say the same about tons of bands, but I’m not making graphs about them.

    And also, like everyone else mentioned already, the x-axis is just horrid…I am saddened to see the public school system has failed this person so badly…

    • Homer says:

      Who says this person went to public school? Perhaps this is a home-school kid with stupid parents.

      • Sarah says:

        Touche.

      • Jynxie says:

        I’m homeschooled so please don’t insult homeschoolers.

        • Jes says:

          yes, you’re on an internet forum, please don’t insult people who may or may not be reading this graph.

          BTW, I have dated and been friends with many homeschoolers, and I can attest that for the most part, the whole “homeschoolers don’t know much about pop culture” thing is true.

          • Dash says:

            But they should know about the months in a year. Unless there’s some bizarre group that has some different ideas about timekeeping. It’s not like the months have always been in that order, various rulers in the western world have moved them around and renamed them as they saw fit.

            Anyway, while I’d agree that most homeschoolers are a little out of the normal social loop, I’d expect them to be up to speed on internet culture. Unless they’re one of “those” homeschoolers…

            • Jes says:

              meh, they don’t need to know months of the year because it’s not like public schoolers, who count down the days until summer vacation.

              • Phoena says:

                I’m a homeschooler, and while I’m not always sure what the weekday or date is (because I have nowhere to be and am not forced to write it down everyday), I do at least know the order of the months. But people in my family seem to have above average IQs for the most part.

  11. theJackanape says:

    ugh, it’s another crappy graph that says something that’s probably true but still isn’t funny, like those horrid “paradox” graphs. Also, Nickelback’s pretty good (then again, I’ve only heard one song by them, so I could easily be wrong XD)

  12. TEEHEE says:

    perfect.

  13. Tim says:

    This is just wantonly spiteful and mean. I love it.

  14. QuoteMan says:

    EPIC!

    That is all. Thank you.

  15. Drew says:

    A dig at Nickleback, how original. How about a graph that takes shots at Miley Cyrus and George W. Bush? Those have never been done before, either.

    • breathe in breathe out says:

      And while we’re making fun of people who’ve never been made fun of before, why not make fun of the Jonas Brothers and Sarah Palin?

  16. TJ says:

    Not amusing at all. And I hate Nickelback. Why does this stuff end up on the front page?

  17. That one girl says:

    Better use that time not seeing Nickelback to go the hell back to school.

    Should have been posted on FailBlog instead of here.

  18. Guilherme says:

    The Graph would be funny if it was about a band that everybody hates… Like Jonas Brothers, or something like that… But nickelback is a band that some people like, some people don’t like… it’s not a bad music, isn’t the best either…

    As someone said… this should be on FailBlog, not here

  19. Neinna says:

    Go back ten years or so, and the bars would be sky high.

  20. GAH GAH GAH says:

    HAY I ARENT GONE GO BIKKLENACK NEITHERZ
    WE SHOOD HUK UP

  21. buh says:

    Unfortunately for everyone, Nickelback counts as CanCon. Basically, 40% of programming/music played on the radio or TV in Canada has to be Canadian origin. Nickelback is on that list, so it doesn’t matter if anybody’s actually listening to them or not, they get paid for filling that quota.

    Frankly, as a Canadian, I’m very sorry about Nickelback. We hang our collective head in shame. Even though the goverment keeps telling us we like them, most of us actually don’t.

    • mjc says:

      Strangely enough, you’re not the first Canadian I’ve heard issue an apology for them. :p

      Unless you’re the same dude with a different screen name here, anyway.

    • zappafrank says:

      At least you have Rush, Saga, Devin Townsend, KiLLeR DWaRfS, and Voivod to make up for it. I’ll throw Triumph in there, too, even though I don’t listen to them.

      And I’m pretty sure James Labrie from Dream Theater is Canadian, so you guys have that going for you, too.

    • blahblahblah says:

      “No no, the Canadian government has apologized for Bryan Adams.”

      /South Park’d

    • WorldsTallestMidget says:

      Well, at least they’re a step up from Default…

      **douche chill**

  22. Someone says:

    Would someone explain to me what’s so bad about Nickelback’s music? A lot of people say they hate it, but no one ever seems to have a good explanation for why they hate it.

    • Ol says:

      Bland, generic, samey (all of their songs sound the same). Horrible lyrics (they read like a 15 year old wrote them, but the band are all well into their 30’s), bad rhyming, terrible vocals.

      Not to mention the overproduced, over compressed, clip ridden production and mastering, which makes the music completely unlistenable (even if you did like the music, I challenge you to listen to a whole album without getting frustrated by the garbage sound).

      There’s the above, AND the fact that they are (in the eyes of the brain dead morons who listen to corporate radio, day in, day out), really great! Which means us poor music fans are subjected to their crap, by people who don’t know better, when we work, when we drive, go out, turn on the tv etc, etc.

      I worked with a guy who loved them, and went to see them twice, when I asked about how they were, all he could talk about was their pyrotechnics and explosions!

      Quite frankly, I wish they’d all spontaneously combust.

      • Spring says:

        This is why I lose more hope fo humanity every single day – people state OPINIONS as GOD-GIVEN TRUTHS, and don’t understand that there is a fanbase, however small, for anything imaginable. You may be surprised to learn, Ol, that there are, in fact, people who like Nickelback for their music.

        • WorldsTallestMidget says:

          There are also people who enjoy tossing toddler’s salads, Spring. Should we respect their fanbase too?

  23. That One Person says:

    Interesting calender you go by.

  24. sinajax says:

    Boooooo…..unfunny.
    Somebody make a Nickelback joke worth laughing at please.

  25. name says:

    Soooo…
    U no likes Nickelback? (or October)

  26. um says:

    I don’t like nor dislike Nickelback, so I really couldn’t care less if someone happens to listen to them. But for someone to make this graph makes you the world’s biggest d-bag.

  27. um says:

    The biggest problem with this graph is it’s completely unncessary and offensive to anyone who lives this band. There are things I don’t like at all, but you don’t see me making a graph about them because I’m not a tool.

  28. Jake says:

    At least they’re better than Miley Cyrus or the Jonas Brothers

  29. zwinggi says:

    i’m more annoyed that people keep talking about nickelback and how much they suck, than about how much they suck. if everyone stops talking about them, maybe they’ll just go away. like creed.

  30. mythistocles says:

    What I find hilarious is that Breaking Benjamin is opening for Nickleback…WHY ON EARTH?!?! Breaking Benjamin owns! They shouldn’t be allowed near Nickleback, much less on the same stage!

  31. Alex says:

    Now I know something that’s gonna be BOTH on GraphJam and FailBlog :D

  32. breathe in breathe out says:

    Soooo….. Is anybody gonna actually submit this to FAIL Blog or are they just saying that to sound cool?

    I know I just did.

  33. Robert says:

    Not a big fan of Nickelback, but I actually went to one of their shows for free and was pleasantly surprised at how good of a show they put on… Not my favorite I’ve been to but still…

  34. WorldsTallestMidget says:

    Creed, Coldplay, Nickelback, Theory of a Dead Man, Breaking Benjamin, Puddle of Mudd…
    It’s pretty sad when I pine for 90s grunge.
    *gags*

    • Sarah says:

      Hey don’t rag on 90’s grunge. My iPod is filled with it :P

    • blahblahblah says:

      “Creed, Coldplay, Nickelback, Theory of a Dead Man, Breaking Benjamin, Puddle of Mudd…”

      What is the musical equivalent to gruel?

      I’ll take Potent Potables for $400.

  35. it's that kid says:

    Even if the months were input correctly and this graph was about any other band/performer in the world, I still don’t see why this’d be good. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought most people didn’t go to very many concerts in the first place unless it’s their “omfg liek favoritest band evah of all tyme lol.” For example, I enjoy the Killers, but I don’t plan on going to any of their concerts next year either. In other words, this graph is too vague and problem-filled for my tastes…

    …*hides under a rock*

    • Phoena says:

      Yes, I know exactly what you mean. There are only a limited number of people going to each concert of each band, so of course that means there are billions of people NOT going to those concerts, so it just makes this graph seem really dumb to me.

  36. J says:

    Everyone is questioning the errors in the months… but you’re all missing the big picture here: Nickelback sucks. And this graph, even with its moronic stupidity, has good intentions.

    Can’t we all just get along? :’(

  37. NIckelback4ever says:

    get a life, fcktard….

  38. chitownpanther2013 says:

    Someone needs to head back to preschool and pay closer attention to the calendar placemat during snacktime.

  39. haha says:

    hahahahahhaha
