How did Nickelback gain a large fan base despite criticism of their music?

Hey, man, that band I told you about, Nickleback? The dropped their sophomore. It’s really good. Check it out.

Nickleback! Nickleback!

Hey, have you heard of this new band, Nickleback? Their first album is pretty cool.

What are some of the most annoying movie clichés?

(It sounds a bit too much like they took what made them popular from the previous album and just did more of that.)

(Wow! What’s with this band? So many people are going nuts for them? What’s so special about them? They had a decent song or two. But there’s no originality now. They’re just wearing themselves out chasing their own tail.)

Here’s my ranking of Nickleback’s discography. They don’t have a bad album at all. But some are better than others. In last place is their most recent album. I felt it was very uninspired. This track is the best one and that track is pretty good. But the rest of the album doesn’t do much for me…

Why hasn't Japan legalized same-sex marriage?

Yay! Nickleback!

(Yeah, it was great at first. But I have heard it a bit too much.)

(It really bugs me that such a boring, unoriginal band gets so much attention when there are loads of other way more interesting bands out there.)

Do married men like sucking dick?

(Nickleback? They suck. Who cares…)

Nickleback are awesome! My new favourite band! I just got their fourth album. It totally rocks!

(Nickleback sucks! They’re the worst band ever! I can’t stand them. Why do so many people like them? So unoriginal!)

Dude, you heard that new single by that band, Nickleback? It’s awesome! Holy crap! That song is everywhere! It’s so cool!

Something like that. Millions of people love them. Millions claim to hate them. The most honest criticism of the music is that it sounds like it’s being written deliberately for a particular market. I haven’t heard anything since around 2002 or so, so I can’t say for myself. They don’t suck as in bad musicians or bad song writers. They just sell millions of albums while other excellent bands struggle. That’s what the real problem is, I think.

We now told, by Senator Grassley, that on the FBI form about the Biden bribery story, there is a Burisma exec who says he has 17 tapes of his deal with the Biden. 15 of Hunter and 2 of Joe Biden? What would this do to Hunter/Joe Biden if released?

I think it went something like this.
