"Weezer is a shitty corporate sell-out band" hasn't been breaking news in like three decades. Their music video for Buddy Holly came on the Windows 95 installation disc for God's sake

It was the only video you could watch without buffering for days with the shitty dial up internet of the time. OH OH AND YOU'RE MARY TYLER MOORE. Fucking kill me.

I was amazed that the Windows 95 stock Media Player could minimize video to a 32x32 icon at full speed! I played it on loop for hours.

That's honestly the only reason why I know that they exist. I remember thinking that it was a weird name for a band since people who wheeze can't talk well, let alone sing.
