I'm not ashamed to admit it, this is my shit right here. Been listening to this record all week thanks to the head's up from Sarge D, the evil genius behind Stuff You Will Hate, my number one source of jokes about teenagers and the horrible music they (and I) love. If that sounds relevant to your interests, go read that site. If not, I don't know if we should see each other anymore. Here's what he said below. More from him on PTSOTL here.
My motto for life is “Just let it happen.” You can’t lie to yourself or pretend to be something that you aren’t. Like it or not, you just have to admit the truth, however ugly it may be. Am I proud of the time I was so broke I sold dirty socks to some pervert on eBay (srs)? No, but it happened. Or when I got too drunk and barfed on a naked girl’s back a couple years ago, ruining any potential for stabbing the guts? OK, I’m like semi-proud of that, but you get the point.
What I’m trying to say is that I refuse to live a lie anymore. I’m not proud of it, but the honest truth is I that I think I love THE STORY SO FAR even though they are rich pussies from Nor Cal who play tr00 pop-punk. Meaningful lyrics? Check. Braying donkey vocals? Pretty much. Live photos begging to be shooped with cocks? Oh yes. But NO FUCKS GIVEN, these guys have some sweet songs and that’s all that matters!

I’ve posted this before, but it’s probably their best song and full of so many tr00 moments I don’t even know where to start. Note the “standing in a grassy field at sunset like an American Eagle commercial” bit at 1:44.
“Nothin… chillin’ in front of my mom’s house and filming the ‘just a bunch of Norcal bros who like to have a good time’ parts for our video… what u doin?”
Actually, I think I was wrong: “High Regard” is my favorite TSSF song. I try to ignore the Pop Punk Trout lyrics like “What do you want from me? I’m just a kid who got in too deep” and when he rhymes “life” and “strife” (see also every lazy punk/hxc lyric writer ever).

Took me like a week to realize why I like it so much. Because it's basically Hot Rod Circuit/Further Seems Forever. I can finally rest now.
"I'm getting too old for this" - Swords and Pens. Yup.
You're only as old as your taste in music. Someone said that once. They should have if they didn't.
um. No.
COME ON BRO.
