I’d prefer either of these than getting stung by Sting.

[–] whaleross 14 points 5 days ago (1 children)

What about getting policed by The Police?

[–] Nfamwap 8 points 5 days ago

Or getting kinky with The Kinks?

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.

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.

[–] CaptPretentious 3 points 5 days ago

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'

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

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.

Not that hard. I don't think You can buy anything for 50c but I do like M&Ms.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago

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.

Would you rather doom scroll with MF Doom, or get some tuna with Chali2na?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

Would you rather doom scroll on a device that can't even run Doom or doom scroll wearing Doctor Doom's mask?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Would you rather play Mario with Mario Lopez, or play Sonic with Sonic Youth?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Would you rather do archery with Archenemy, or masturbate with Mastodon?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

Spend 50 cents with 50 cent to buy $1 worth of M&Ms to then eat with Eminem

[–] ArtVandelay 7 points 5 days ago

Better than meatloaf with Meatloaf I guess.

[–] aeronmelon 10 points 6 days ago

Get tied to 2chains with two chains.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

I'd rather be curt with curtis than blather with mathers, that man came up as a battle rapper and i know i can't game

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 days ago (2 children)

@ooli2 Why not both? Spend 50 cents to buy M&M’s 😋

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 days ago

"You can have two."

"Snack-sized packs?"

"No."

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago

Have you seen the price of chocolate lately? You'd be happy to get 1 M&M for 50 cents.

[–] Valmond 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I'd spend the evening with ice cube or vanilla ice on a green day.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

How about drinking ice tea?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

Hangout at the club with Seal. Or...
oh my...

[–] Bigfishbest 3 points 5 days ago

Walk dogs with Snoop Dogg

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago

Eat 50 cents?

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink 3 points 5 days ago

Would you rather Jack with Black or Black with Jack?

[–] untorquer 4 points 6 days ago

I don't want to be near either but would watch them sharing these options together.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

They are both cool, but I'm originally from Michigan, so I gotta go with Eminem.

[–] garbagebagel 2 points 5 days ago

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

I would prefer a death next to Chuck Schuldiner from Death.
