1. No, they are not.
Also, when trading them in, throw Theory of A Deadman, Default, and all those other bands that I can't tell the difference between in as well.

2. You'd be lucky to get the floormats option trading them in.
Nickleback is the Yugo of the "music" world.

And I swear, if I hear that damnable "Animals" song again, hellfire will spew forth from my nostrils at the bloke guilty of playing same.

6. They just seem to be everywhere, as omnipresent as the Olsen Twins
or Botox in Hollywood - I just wanted to do the "mad as Hell" thing á la Peter Finch....

a tornado tearing through a donkey farm.

14. I'm thinking of changing my sig line
to reflect it.

"Nickleback sucks ass like a tornado tearing through a donkey farm."

Has a nice ring to it.

16. Holy hell, dude...I kid you not. They were just on
as if the Gods of real music were mocking me. The song just ended. Doesn't really matter, though...the band on now, sounds just bloody like them.

Excuse me, but I need to go get my chainsaw...

And that makes me very happy.

9. It was "funny" the first time I heard it
lacking musical talent, the lyrics made me chuckle in a Motley Crue kind of way.

I leave the radio on for the dogs here. Commercial "rock" radio means Nickleback...all day, every day.

12. You of all people should know better than that
wouldn't a Spanish-language station with endless mariachi music be more humane ??

13. I normally leave it on my public radio station, WMNF, but
lately it's not been coming in too well.

4. They are, but only for *this* reason.
Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing.

He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as
the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

5. You must die now.
:grr:

And to the OP, that's why the preset buttons are right on the front of the radio. ;)

20. Only as a torture device.
Other than that they have no use whatsoever.
