ahhh so it's like when punks get pissed off when regular people call bands like Blink 182 "punk"?  Only more whiney?

early blink and even some later blink was unarguably punk.  the last album really wasn't. 
Pop punk...at best.  Sadly they sold out to MTV like just any other Rage Against the Machine or Metallica.

"pop punk" can still be punk.  basically all of Cheshire Cat plus tracks after that like "Apple Shampoo" and "The Party Song" are punk, without argument, among others.

Sure.  And that's why I liked them.  But it still pisses "real" punks off when people call them "punk".  You'd get your ass kicked if you wore a Blink 182 shirt to a, say, Pennywise show.  Even if it was a Buddha shirt.

Not anymore. It actually became cool to like Blink 182 about 4-5 years ago, then it became "ironic" and thus it was then acceptable and cool.

Aye, that would seem to make sense.  I still wouldn't wear one out in public.
