    “Ya good times come and good times go, I only wish the good times would last a little longer and I think about the good times we had and why they had to end”
    That line hits differently

    Story of My Life, which was released in 1990, is an awesome fucking song. So many of us can relate to it. It is timeless. I quit (was expelled) from high school the day that I turned 17 years old. They sent a letter in the mail, which I intercepted. There were times when I applied for a job everywhere, but could not get hired anywhere. I just did not fit what they were looking for. Life goes by so fast. And, you only want to do what you think is right. Close your eyes and it's past.

    I was 28 when this album came out from my It was a shock as Mommy’s Little Monster was issued independently and this their namesake album was issued on a major label. Punk rock on a major label, who would have thought? Loved the refinements and the exposure they got, but I also love the fact they later went independent and focused on being a touring band. The pressure of a commercial commitment can force one to turn out so so music, while staying independent has allowed Mike Ness to flourish.

    I must be some goddamn anomaly. 38 years at this point and I still don't think life goes by so fast. I find time to move rather slow, or rather it moves precisely in the time it needs to. Can't relate to that part. Only part I can relate to is having a lot of experience but never any relevant experience, never getting any job really, bad school experiences and constant daydreams.
    Despite this, I am just powerless to change the trajectory of my life because society made sure of that.

    One Direction using the title "Story of my Life" is not that big of a deal. It's not like it's a complicated or thoughtful title. It's literally just a saying. It's like when Selena Gomez made a song called "Hit the Lights" and Metallica fans freaked the fuck out. IT'S A SAYING!
    I know 1D sucks and are generic pop trash, but it still isn't a big deal. 1D probably doesn't even know who Social Distortion is in their protected little pop world.
