In 700 years, a human-devouring mutant might unearth a weathered copy of Nobody Likes You and learn a thing or two about post-grunge, pre-rap-metal pop-punk. But for those of us who laughed at Dookie's masturbation references in junior high, sobbed through dance performances of “Good Riddance" at our high school grad and cursed Bush while spending our cash on American Idiot concert tickets in university, former Spin writer Marc Spitz's slim 182-pager provides few new insights into the Cali punks.
