    These are the most forgettable in the PJ catalog.

    Also, "Stupid Mop" is not a song. It's only a psychedelic outro, so get over it.

    Bu$hleaguer. It's not even the subject matter of the song that I can't stand....I just think it's a shitty song.

    I think the point was "track that is consciously skipped" not semantic perfection.

    As great as Pearl Jam are, I'm sure that everyone has a few tracks that they think are pretty awful. I've given each in turn it's fair chance but they just don't work for me. Thought it would be interesting to see different opinions. Anyway, here's mine:

    Mankind
    Gorified G
    Hey Foxymop...
    Leash
    Indifference
    Garden

    Stupid Mop is indeed a "track" not a song.. you can create some weird stuff like that and put it in an album like they did, but that's definately not a song so it shouldn't be included in this list.. and if you think about it, you can't even skip it, because it's never been played live (impossible) and it's at the end of Vitalogy so when you listen to that album and don't want to hear that track you just press "stop" or put to rest the needle, not skip it.. :geek:
    anyway can't believe some of the songs mentioned here.. Sleight of Hand? Cropduster? go kcuf yourselves, you pussies :lol:
    ..the most obvious answer to this thread is simply: Olé

    Lukin. I don't see the appeal.

    Eddie teased Slow Lukin in Clearwater. That I would not skip.

    for me Just Breathe and The Fixer hurt my ears. I skip most of Backspacer. :nono:

    Even Flow

    Great song, but played at nearly every show and I've grown tired of it - strangely can't say the same about Alive or Black though

    I don't skip these every time but they are the ones that I do skip if I were to skip any. I learned long ago not to skip songs because the ones I don't like initially usually end up being my favorites over time.

    Bushleaguer(not for political reason)
    Used to skip 1\2 Full. Have grown to like it though.
    Bugs
    Hitchhiker(I hate the guitar. It reminds me of that Offspring song that I hate)
    Jeremy(sick of it like 15 years ago)

    ...fucker... I allways place it twice.

    On live boots I often skip Evenflow, Off he goes, Small Town, Just Breathe.

    Very surprised by a lot of the songs listed. I'll skip some songs just based on what mood I'm in that day but I almost always skip evacuation and parachutes.
