Tom explains in the album’s liner notes that “Easy Target” was based on a story from “a friend’s”—who has since been revealed to be producer Jerry Finn—middle school years. Finn was in love with a female classmate, Holly, who invited him over to her house, only to have her and her friend drench him with a hose; humiliated, he rode home on his bicycle.

From the liner notes on the album booklet DeLonge said:

"A friend of ours told a story of when he was young and got asked to go to the prettiest girl in the high school’s house. He rode his bike as fast as he could to get there, and she and her friend jumped out of the balcony and sprayed him with a hose. He rode home wet, sad, and humiliated."
