Band"I think it's so incredible that there are all these boy bands out there, like the Backstreet Boys and 98 Degrees. They're all so bad! It hurts me, I've cried, I've pooped my pants. I don't know why people like these bands so much! They don't write any of their own music and they actually sit in conference rooms and figure out how to answer interview questions so they can be prepared. And they choreograph everything, including the sex they have with each other after the shows! Oh well. All power to them because they are making more money than I am and they're selling way more records. Obviously people like it. It's just not for me." - Mark"Surfing is really hard. You have to spend a lot of time in the water and there's no other sport in the world that actually has monsters that want to eat you while you're doing it." - Mark "Be successful, or don't be successful, and do what ever you can do to be the best you can be" - Tom DeLonge "It's so strange to write a song on a shitty acoustic guitar on your couch, and then have the song take a life of its own." "We wanted this record to sound edgier and a litte harder than what people normally expect from us. "I've never been one to party on tour. When all the other bands are going out after the show, I'm sitting in a room practicing. I feel guilty if I don't, like I'm taking everything for granted." - Travis Barker "Well, enemas sure brought my family closer together."-Tom "Ahh yea, oh man too many beers. Whoa, whats going on? Ahh yea there we go, whooo hoo, oh wait hang on a second! ahh yea, rexy, here boy! Here Rex, come on boy! come on boy, ohh good boy! You want a drink don't you? Youre a little thirsty dog, arent you? Come here boy, okay here you go, Here drink a little drink. There you go good doggy good dog, Oh Rex you like that huh, I like you Rex! [dog lapping]" -Mark; Dude Ranch "I wanted to be a Pro Skater but I kept on hurting myself to the point where I couldn't even do it anymore..." -Travis "Take it from me because I learned the hard way: circumcisions are best left to professionals." -Mark "Travis is a lady magnet. He's like James Dean- mysterious" - Mark Hoppus "Titles we usually come up with when it's the absolute latest time you can name something. 'What's My Age Again' was named 'Peter Pan Complex' for ever and ever and ever, until the day before it went to radio." - Mark Hoppus "It was really uncomfortable and awkward, Nothing's uglier or stupider looking than a naked guy, and making a video out of that was a little uncomfortable and fun at the same time." - Mark Hoppus on the making of What's My Age Again? "I don't know why I am in this band, I am the only guy that likes girls. I'm the only one that believes that guys and girls should be together and that babies should be made through the [wheeny and girl] way. The old way. These guys are trying to create some weird, uh, wacky, maybe the [wheeny] in the butt will get a kid. I don't know, I don't think that works (laughing) What?"-Mark "No, dude, don't come here and act like your like, heterosexual."-Tom “I pack as little as possible. I hate me.” - Mark "It won't be [released by us], 'cause I honestly don't want people to see me naked. We'll lose our entire fan base! Especially when I do a cartwheel in front of the camera and I'm totally naked -- the whole package is just really rotten looking." - Mark Hoppus on uncut What's My Age Again? video “I am packing the book I'm reading right now (The Catcher in the Rye), my computer, a shitload of CD's-Fenix TX, Tosca, Alkaline Trio, Jimmy Eat World, Dashboard Confessional, Midtown, Rocket From The Crypt, New Found Glory, At The Drive In, MXPX, Get Up Kids, Sum 41, the new Amsterdams, Descendents, Fugazi, Refused, Underworld, Jay-Z, AFI, NOFX, Tenacious D, The Cure, Itj Bukem, and the initial mixes of our new record. I’m also bringing a bunch of dvd's, one pair of pants, a pair of shorts, a bunch of t-shirts, boxers, and socks.” - Mark "I really enjoy, uh, getting make-up and my butt worked on. What I do normally before a show is I get my butt spackled, shaved, waxed, massaged, and buffed..."-Tom "The guys who made fun of Tom's dick in second grade...Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion and Oscar Meyer (for personal reasons)...Our unending thanks to O (pronouced "ohhh") for all his help and guidance. This guy rules its that simple." - Blink 182 (Thank You Section) "Tom's girlfriend apparently likes ugly guys."-Scott "She looks for what's inside!"-Tom "She's a proctologist"- Mark " If all is well I pee about 3-4 times a day.........I drink other peoples pee 37 times a day." - Tom "Kids, I only have one thing to say about life--Have a good time, all the time." - Mark "I don't think god is happy with the words we say onstage." - Tom "Hey..how old are you? 15? OH MY GOD!!! put those things away." - Tom "However... the prognosis of Tom's canker sore is pretty much the same as the prognosis about his [wheeny]. It's not the biggest one Dr. Bruce has seen but it's the placement of it that bothers him." -Mark "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!" - Tom "We've done the same things that we were doing in the begining, and we never wanted our band to stay small. I mean, we want our band to be as big as it can, and I'm not going to die wondering about some kid that calls us a sell-out at a show. I don't have a problem being on MTV, and I don't have a problem being on the radio. I actually like it. So there. And anyone that calls me a sell out is just jealous." - Mark "Look at me...look at me...I need the attention. Ohh, I'm punk rock, I got some tattoos, I got some peircings. If I'm going to get some peircings then I want everyone to see it...I don't need to advertise my punkness. A real punk doesn't need to show off...it's like a Karate man...the Karate man bleeds on the inside. A real punk is punk on the inside." -Mark "Wus up people??......I'm bringing 10 famous stars and straps shirts (all of them black), 2 belts, 2 buckles, a clipper to shave my head cause it's summer out here, pain killers, audio shoes, and vanilla candles and Nag Champa Incense...and my lady Melissa." - Travis "As far as my dreams, I pretty much have gnarly nightmares every night. Worst fear is getting stuck in traffic. When I was ten I wanted to be an astronaut. Or some kind of shit." - Mark "Life isn't all that bad. In the year 2012 a time of peace will envelope the world and contact will be soon with alien visitors. The book of Revelation was recently decoded and says that world war 3 will be in 2043, but that doesn't mean to lose hope. We will always be able to choose. I have...really large [balls]." - Tom "To distinguish a Blink fan from a non-Blink fan, there a couple things you can look for. If a person has brains, they probably don't listen to our music. If a person has any pride or any kind of family values, chances are they probably don't listen to us. The kids that listen to us are just out there having a good time." - Mark
