Screw it, I'm voting for Fall Out Boy again. "Pretty Fly" is embarrassing.

Pretty Fly For a White Guy is the moment Offspring lost any credibility they had left at that point.
It also cashed in hard and determined the outcome of the rest of their career: a joke.
It's still not by Fallout Boy so I'm voting for it, plus I thought it was funny as a pre-teen.

Neither song is the band's best offering but the Offspring one is worse

Yeah. "Pretty Fly" is a silly song, and it's got a certain charm to it. I don't think it fails so hard. Plus, the part where the band kicks in near the end along with the timbales and background singers is kind of cool. It gets my vote.

Pretty Fly sounds like corporate cock sucking and cash registers.
The other song gets the vote.

I gotta say I think Pretty Fly is still really catchy. The verses have some nice melody and playing.

1. What percent of this tournament is made up of people saying “I hate x but x”
2. The only reason that Offspring song even has a chance in this round is because of the age of this audience
