Minutemen (band)/YMMV

• Big Name Fan: Their contemporaries in the 80s punk and alternative rock scene, such as Sonic Youth. Bob Nastanovich of Pavement was also seen sporting a Minutemen shirt in concert. The Red Hot Chili Peppers also seem to be fans, as they mentioned D. Boon in concert, their song "Good Time Boys" includes Shout Outs to both The Minutemen and fIREHOSE, and Flea has cited Mike Watt as an influence on his bass playing. Finally, Matt Chapman of Homestar Runner fame listed Double Nickels on the Dime among his top 5 favorite albums of all time.
• Hate Dumb: You can find YouTube comments on their music videos accusing the band of racism by people who think the band is related to the Minutemen Project, an anti-illegal immigration group founded 20 years after the band disbanded.
• Magnum Opus: Many fans and critics consider theirs to be Double Nickels on the Dime.
• Memetic Outfit: Mike Watt's flannel. Later on, this was sort of referenced by fIREHOSE's Flyin' The Flannel, which fittingly featured a closeup of a flannel shirt on the cover.
• Sampled Up: "Get Out" by Sublime samples the drum intro to "It's Expected I'm Gone." The drum part to Nirvana's "Scentless Apprentice" is also suspiciously similar. The drum part was used yet again by Pinback in their song "Hurley," named after George Hurley.
• Too Good to Last
