  • " I don't know why I am in this band, I am the only guy that likes girls. I am the only one that believes that guys and girls should be together and that babies should be made the penis vagina way. The old way.

Tom: "No, don't come here and try to act like your heterosexual!"

  • "This is a scene and the bands that have been in it a long time deserve the breaks. Doesn't mean they've changed. We haven't. We're still writing songs about girls."
  • "I study that stuff, man," he says. "UFOs ... I'll tell you that I think in the next year the US government is going to come out and admit that aliens have visited Earth. The reason I think that is that I listen to this radio show at home which deals with all this stuff."
  • "Now which one of you said I suck? Which one of you called me an ugly disgusting bastard? Was it you? How old are you? How old are you? You know I once said that I would never stick anything in my butt larger than a lamp light! Anyway........you guys wanna hear a song?"

  • "Travis has a lot of tattoos. I hope basically means I hope I can get laid by a guy. Can I say for can I say I'm gay. And the bird, represents a man swooshing through the clouds and coming down and sleeping with him."
  • "It's so obvious that I have the most masculine attributes. If femininity were a sport, the other two guys would have a gold medal. All I hear is, "When can I wear a dress? Can I paint my house pink?" That kind of stuff. By far, I'm the only one that resembles something like a Conan-type character. You can call me Conan."
  • "The only reason I bought a computer was to look up UFO sites and learn how to get probed. Anally. Wait, are you laughing at me?"

  • "Well, uh, that one back there says hope, I hope I can get laid by a guy. The one on the front says Can I Say I'm gay, basically, can I say I'm gay. Like, if you look on his ghettoblaster that ghettoblaster is always playing homosexual music like Morrisey, Erasure. Uh... the bird on his right arm that you see there symbols ... a man... swooshing through the sky coming down and... sleeping with him."
  • "You mean the shit people claim 'You're not punk anymore!' I think they're a bunch of little hypocrites. Punk has nothing to do with the label you're on. We still get that kind of crap, but for every hypocritical punk kid, there are hundreds out there who just like the music. It's all about music and fun anyway and I can't see anything wrong with that. All the selling out talk is really overrated, the funny thing is it hardly ever comes from bands, it comes from some kid who think they're so punk because they have a purple mohawk. And it's the one that has the biggest... ehhh ... mohawk is the most punk! Ha ha!"
