Avril Lavigne and job security

[bliumchik]

What I'd like to know from the people who consider AL a poser, is this: what is she actually *posing* AS? She seems to me to just be a mixture of punk and pop. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing nless your both hardcore punk and also subscibe to the ridiculous idea of liking artists. You don't *do* that. You like *songs*, not the people who sing them. That way you don't come up with the embarrassing scenario of complaining how much you hate someone and then being confronted with a song of theirs which is actually good. Because avril does have good songs. Losing my Grip, Nobody's home - they're good. Admittedly the pretentously spelled "sk8er boi" and complicated kinda sucked, a lot, but that doesn't make *her* bad.

I don't think I'm going to get fired, by the way. Work today was tolerable, I think I'm pulling my weight at last. Competence level - going up! w00t.
