Please direct your attention to the red tie. Clearly, Billie Joe is punk. The eyeliner and wet-look hair are clear indicators of anti-establishment. But what we like, what really interests us, is not the black or the aggro or the spitting or whatever he does, but that little pop of color he throws in. And he's done it before but this time it sticks and suddenly there is an entire nation of raccoon-eyed dudes with skinny ties...and I'm not sure how I felt about it then, but now, well, now it's perfect and sums up the early aughts deliciously.
