well i want 2 say that FOB has no level confident like MCR ... i hate pete coz he has no talent at all . like gerard way , he has a talent like making a song/ lyrics like This is how i disappear song . my relatives , family and my friends vote 4 my chemical romance . FOB 4 me is bored and their lyrics doesn't means alot like MCR . My Chemical Romance means a lot meanings i mean . but don't worry ! MCR is not a suck band . who hates MCR means they were jealous cuz MCR is rather funny and cute than FOB . FOB has no history about their lives at all . i mean about when did they start , what is their 1st song . MCR is better . it has a history . MCR is ready to rock the Earth .
