tbh nothing pete’s written is as iconic as that fall out boy friends appreciation journal post from like 2005 when he just gushed about how much he loves each of his bandmates
“We were always the band that ordered a lot of pizza, but never like really rehearsed. That’s still who we are, I think, to this day. It’s a lot of like we hang out, talk about everything, look stuff up on the internet, order pizza - and oh, we’ve got like 40 minutes, we can just jam all the songs in! [In the early days] we practised in Joe’s parent’s attic, so it was like, tiny and it was hot and he had a German Shepard that tried to like, bite us all the time… And it was crazy because we’d go on tour and we’d come back and our equipment would be all smashed up because his younger brother was mad at us and stuff. Like, just some funny fun stuff. But I think it was just that we were ambitious, but we never took ourselves like super seriously. So, I think that aided in that we’d go on tour and we’d just have fun. It was always about being friends.”
