The band has been nominated for three Grammy Awards, have sold 40 million records worldwide and won several other awards.

The band achieved mainstream success with their second and third studio albums, Significant Other (1999) and Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water (2000), although this success was marred by a series of controversies surrounding their performances at Woodstock '99 and the 2001 Big Day Out festival.

Get a life (idiom)

"Get a life" is an idiom and catch phrase that has gained international usage. It is intended as a taunt, to indicate that the person being so addressed is devoting an inordinate amount of time to trivial or hopeless matters. The phrase has also appeared as a generally more emphatic variant of the taunt "get a job" and implies the addressee needs to go out and make their way in the world, without being supported by outside sources such as parents or benefactors. It may also be directed at someone who is perceived as boring or single-minded; suggesting they acquire some other, more practical interests or hobbies and get dates, find a job, or move into their own home.

It is also applied to so-called workaholics and others who are perceived as dedicated to their work (out of "labor of love" as opposed to money or loyalty to the company) but not taking the time to relax or enjoy life. Sometimes the phrase is used to describe people who are viewed as officious or meddling in the affairs of others. It is another way of saying "get your own life", or "mind your own business".

Get a Life (UK TV series)

Get A Life is a Living reality television show hosted by Jodie Marsh, which premiered March 1, 2007. The show consisted of five shy, nervous, unconfident and low self-esteemed participants who want to change their personalities for the better. Each of the five participants is assigned a mentor—someone he or she aspired to be like, at the top of their social ladder, confident, with a positive outlook on life. The mentors' job is to motivate their protégés throughout the show, giving them words of wisdom and encouragement.

It was reported by the website Digital Spy on March 16 that Living had cancelled the show after just two episodes. However a third episode aired on Living2 on March 20.

Format

The ten contestants reside in a large house for the four-week duration of the show's filming. There are five bedrooms, each one containing a participant and their mentor. The group is regularly driven to various locations and tasked with specialised teamwork-oriented challenges on which they are later graded. Once a week, an expert arrives at the house to teach a "masterclass" on various things the contestants need to improve upon. After four challenges, someone will be asked to leave the house. Each episode is an hour long (including adverts), except for the first episode which was an hour and a half.
