It's easy to pick on Nickelback, isn't it? It's a pretty popular pastime. I mean, even Google is in on it:

The latest to join in on the Nickelback-bashing fun is Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

In a video to promote the new Facebook AI technology, Jarvis, he asks Jarvis to "play us some good Nickelback songs" to which Jarvis responds: "I'm sorry Mark, I'm afraid I can't do that - there are no good Nickelback songs."

"Good. That was actually a test." Mark replies. A classic 'Nickelback are shit' joke, nothing too offensive about that, right?

Well, lead singer Chad Kroeger's ex wife Avril Lavigne didn't see the funny side and called Mark out on Twitter for 'bullying'.

That last hashtag is an eye-opener, isn't it? Over 50 million albums sold - who's buying them? Have you ever met someone who owns a Nickelback album?
