Green Day - Reject COMPLAINT LETTER!!
Description: You've heard how Reject was inspired by a complaint letter that a concerned parent wrote to Green Day. Well, I found the complaint letter and posted it here, along with Billie Joe Armstrong's handwritten response.
I feel like a dork for pointing this out, but notice at the end of the 1st paragraph. She seems so smart... till she says "A issue I plan to pursue with the right people." A issue? How about an?
The song playing is "Disclaimer" by The Offspring, the first track off of their 1997 album "Ixnay on the Hombre." I felt that it just fit PERFECTLY with the whole Reject thing. They wrote it for a different cause (people took the lyrics in "Smash" (1994) too seriously) but this cause works too. Therefore, it plays along with the video. The video is unnecessarily 44 seconds long because of the song... but you'll live. :)
Here's where I found the picture, just if you want to have it yourself or something:

LESSON LEARNED: Don't write any letters like this to Green Day; you'll just get smoked. BAD. Close description
