* BrokenBase: ''The Center Won't Hold'' was a catalyst for a seismic one of these in the Sleater-Kinney fandom. First there was the album itself, which some derided as overly commercial while others praised the new direction and personal lyrics. Then there was the surrounding controversy over Janet Weiss's departure, which pretty much no one was happy about, but debates raged as to whether she was pushed out and whether producer St. Vincent had been a positive or negative influence on the remaining band members, with some fans going so far as to paint her as a YokoOhNo.

* TheScrappy: Carrie and Corin became this to a sect of the fandom following the lukewarm reception to ''The Center Won't Hold'' and their growing IAmTheBand attitude minimizing Janet to the point of her leaving.
