Okay. We all knew someone had to write this. And that someone's name is Donut Radio.
I'm sorry to say this to all the Avril fans, but she's not the best person alive. She's a bad role model and her contradictions are not only boundless, but mind-boggling as well. I don't understand how Avril can claim to be such a good guitarist when she only plays the guitar on one song. If she's so great, why doesn't she play it more often? Hell, if I was as great as Avril made herself out to be, I would play my guitar all the time. True, I'm not the best guitarist in the world and I don't claim to be, and yes, I'm a bit self-centered, but I know that being cocky, arrogant, vain, and hypocritical all the time isn't going to get me anywhere. Talent is what gets people places. And if this is true, Avril is going nowhere.
I fail to see how dropping out of school, smoking, and drinking before you're of the legal age makes you a good role model. Maybe she's a good choice for your idol if you're an aspiring juvy dweller, but not for anyone with more than five functioning brain cells. The person I would like to have for my role model should be sensible, humble, and definitely able to verify claims they make. Now, there's a difference between popularity and talent. Talent is actually being able to do something well, regardless of how poular you are. Popularity is simply being known for something, whether you're good at it or not. Avril is popular, but has no discernable talent. I prefer talent over popularity, but that's just me. Like, take for example, my dad's old band from the 80s, At War. They were never that popular, but they were good, and I'm not just saying that because it was my dad's band. They were very good, and I would have thought they were good even if my dad WASN'T in the band. But, no matter how popular Avril gets, her musical abilities will not improve. I will never like Avril, that's final, and there's nothing you can do about it.
Hatemail. I know I'm going to get it. But, I am prepared and ready, not only to hear the idiotic, poorly spelled flames I'm going to receive, but I'm also ready to respond to them and make the flamer look like an ass. They deserve to look like an ass because if they enter a site which not only has every right to be here, but is only meant for humor purposes. As much as I'd like to choke Avril with her tie, I will never get that possibility. Of all the things I could ever do in my life, killing a person would not be one of them, and I'm a clinical pyromaniac, for crying out loud. But, come one, learn to take a joke. Just take a Flintstones vitamin, drink some hot chocolate, and chill. Seriously.
