Comedy Central destroyed Nickleback. There was a comedy special or show, I don’t remember. Anyway, they promoted the show with a clip from a stand-up bit that was at Nickleback’s expense. I you watched The Daily Show, or South Park, you would have seen that ad a hundred times. After that, liking Nickleback was an embarrassment.

What follows is my bad recollection of the joke.

People say that music can incite violence and I think that’s true because every time I listen to Nickleback I want to hurt… Nickleback.
