Originally released in 1999, it was re-released following the success of "[[All the Small Things]]". {{quotation|"The song originally was called "Peter Pan Complex" (see [[Peter Pan syndrome]]) but the label didn’t want us to call it that because they thought people wouldn’t get it. It was one of those things that, later, we got pissed about because we felt we should have left it called that." |Mark Hoppus}}[http://www.punkdisasters.com/the_music.php?side=blink_discography_enema_meanings] Despite being a fixture in almost all of Blink-182's live show setlists, [[Tom Delonge]], (lead guitarist) was known to comment on the difficulty of the song to the audience before it was played, asking that they "Shut up, because this next song is really hard to play," The song is usually overshadowed by the band's next single ("All the Small Things"), however the song showed the band reach their peak position on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart at #17. It was used in VH1's [[I Love The New Millennium]] twice, once, when talking about [[Botox]] and twice, when talking about the show, "[[Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader?]]" ==Track listing== '''CD # 1''' #"What's My Age Again?" #"Pathetic" (Live in L.A.) #"Untitled" (Live in L.A.)

The band members were wearing [[thong (clothing)|thongs]] for the outdoor scenes but were naked for the indoor scenes. It was comically censored throughout the video, except at the end of the video, in which it was shown uncensored. Porn star [[Janine Lindemulder]] is featured in the video.
