Jonsey, if you're actually stupid enough to believe you need to do anything for Pinhead to insult you, well, you deserve it.
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
- Eleanor Roosevelt.
"But it cannot be done to you without your consent. If you permit it to be done, you deserve it."
- John Galt in Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged

TDR, I challenge you to go a single post without quoting any movie, book, song, or anything else.

Also these are the two dumbest quotes in the history of the human species.

Also, Eleanor Roosevelt was the Nancy Reagan of black and white.

Okay.
(Note I did not quote Pinhead's post challenging me to post without quoting anything!)

Why? Are they wrong? Are they inaccurate? In what way are they incorrect?
Can someone make you feel inferior, or guilty, or a failure, against your will?
Presuming the answer to the last question is "no," then, if you allow someone to do that to you, whose fault is it?
Or (let's say this softly) are they true and obvious, and you don't like it?

1. What a Gyp! We don't see the drunk driver get killed. Even though it's called "the funeral" we don't even see if the drunk actually got hit by the garbage truck (or whatever truck it was if it wasn't a dustbin).
2. As is often typical with music videos, the video had absolutely nothing to do with the content of the song.
3. What does Eleanor Roosevelt have to do with this video? (Unless you're tying my earlier quote from her to Pinhead's comments.) We don't see her or any reference to her in the video (or the song). From what was shown I think we're supposed to think the video is from about the late 1960s or early '70s.

How? I do not understand what is going on, so your response is the typical "blame the victim" mode of the incompetent. Accuse me of being bad at thinking rather than analyze what was said and reconcile it.
And you call me bad at thinking. Lame, lame lame. You are a wart on the ass of the Universe, awaiting the splash of Compound W to terminate your less-than-worthless existence.

Sure! Emotions are the result of spontaneous chemical reactions in the body. Not up to you, they just happen!

Anyway, the new album came out today, and it's fucking brilliant. They're about as diametrically opposite from the "pretentious mashing of production values and image" that they've been accused of in this terrible thread.
Just two supremely talented musicians tearing it up. That's what they are.

Going to actually agree with you here, as I accidentally stumbled upon them again and was quite surprised as to the inspired yet unique direction they have taken themselves. Anyway, here is my favorite single off their new album:

Oh Ting Ting's... Please continue to be oh so AWESOME.

Were the Jolt Country Comedy Duo, so when you post something as absurd as the Ting Ting's, I'm here to capitalize on the gag as much as possible.
Anyway...
NEXT BAND

Agreed - some of their older stuff kicks ass, too.

After being semi-forced to listen to their last CD, I believe the answer to Pinback's statement continues to be...
NOPE

Oh yeah, Retro told me to tell Pinner over Twitter that he was listening to the Ting-Tings the other day.
Mission: Accomplished!

Congrats to RetroRomper for finally finding something he doesn't like!
You're playin' with the big boys, now!

On a slightly unrelated note, Warner Music Group stripped the official White Stripes Youtube channel of all their music videos and replaced them with commercials for their new documentary!
