CAN THIS PICKLE GET MORE FANS THAN NICKELBACK?

 Monday, February 8th, 2010 at 10:00am by

dill pickleCan a simple dill pickle garner more Facebook fans than Nickelback? It’ll take 1,380,820 fans to make that happen, but I believe in the power of the Internet and the deliciousness of pickles. Facebook user Coral Cripps created the Facebook fan page “Can this pickle get more fans than Nickleback?” [sic] less than a week ago on Wednesday, February 3rd. The worldwide ire for Nickelback is so strong that as of this writing the group already has 240,095 fans. When I joind the group yesterday it only had around 70,000… the Pickleback is spreading fast!

What I’d really love to see is Nickelback getting involved by mobilizing their fanbase to counter the attack of the pickle. Hey Roadrunner, get on that! It’d be hilarious. Take the joke and run with it, ala Earache/Oceano style!

Pickles 4evr!!!

    I’m certainly no fan of Nickelback… their particular brand of black magic is insidious and foul. And I like pickles. Count me in.

      It is indeed black Magic. Im down with the Green Phallic object

      I like pickles too, but I’m not so sure this pickle isn’t slowly taking over the world!

  • hi my name is mark

    I’m so sick of these stupid Facebook groups and pages.

    • Natsquatch

      As well.

    Not going to link to the group, I see? I sure as hell ain’t looking for it. I’m too busy not studying for a Psychology exam I’ve got today.

  • tyler09

    i hate pickles. I hate Nickelback. I do enjoy onion rings though. I hate Justin Beiber so I joined that one instead

    • evilfatguy

      What kind of fucking mutant hates pickles?

      • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

        Have you ever had Fried Pickles…

        They are made by the one True god out in the Elysian Fields, then Magic’d to your local eatery where the the eponymous 2 Striker behind the grill deep fries them for YOU the consumer.

        They’re Heaven.

          Real clever using lines from the ‘I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell’ movie.

          • Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt

            Havent seen the movie heard it was awful, and I indeed used the shit out of it. And the fact that you said “from the movie” not “from the Book” shows me that was your first exposure to it. Meaning :

            A: You’re an illiterate inbred fuck.

            B: You simply jumped on the “I love Tucker Max” bandwagon WAAAAAY after some of us read his book years ago.

            Id say both. Play in traffic.

  • braincake

    yup…cause i hate nickelback almost as much as i hate staind.

  • Awful Offal Carnage

    Fuck those Facebook pages/groups. There’s so many; it’s annoying as fuck.

    Basically it’s: “Can this (Insert various object/edible treat here) get more fans than (Insert band we all know is shitty)”. I’ve seen Hannah Montana, Justin Bieber, Twilight, etc. If there was an Attack Attack! one(or maybe a Lacuna Coil, Axl should stop kissing Cristinas ass, figuratively of course) for all the fellow Suckalos out there, I might join it. Maybe.

    I joined. I hate Nickeldick.
    i agree on the over-annoyance of facebook pages.

  • Facebook User

    yeah this stuff is pretty retarded. it’s nothing but free advertising for Nickelback, or the name of whatever dumb bullshit people think will get less fans than something else stupid.

  • Dysenteric

    I don’t even have an opinion on Nickleback, but those groups are as pointless as anything.

    And if [item x] gets more “fans” than [item y], in this case x = pickle and y = Nickleback, who the fuck cares? It’s just a daft Facebook page that’ll affect nothing. I’d rather listen to Nickleback than join those pointless groups.

    • bearbomb

      You act like you have to pay money to join this group or something. You click on a fucking button to have someone else protest your dislike FOR YOU! I’d say that’s pretty cool.

      • Dysenteric

        Not my intention.

        • Facebook User

          they are pretty pointless ..

  • Facebook User

    Vince, if you like pickles you should go check out the Pickle Guys at Grand and Essex. The hot sours are fucking unreal. Fuck Nickelback.

      Thanks for the tip! Spicy pickles are my favorite. I dig McClure’s, another local brand.

      • Kyle

        My girlfriend knows my love of pickles and brought me a jar of McClure’s this week. Absolutely delicious. Oddly, the first thing I thought of was this conversation. She also happens to be an adult model and I’m going to get her one of your shirts for a “show us your metalsucks” pornstar edition. Anyway, if you haven’t tried the hot sours yet from The Pickle Guys you should remedy that immediately. Thanks again for removing my FB posts. You’re the man.

  • SourDeez

    I would eat an entire barrel of pickles, vomit, and then eat my own pickle vomit before intentionally listening to a Nickelback song.

  • ThisIsNecessary

    Pickles are not my thing.

    Cucumbers on the other hand are where it’s at.

  • Facebook User
