I'd say that the auto-hubris that greated the posting of a few lines from songs
is taking the internet too seriously.
Lyrics = Emo irrespective of context, seemed to be the Pavlovian response of "internet little Englanders" protecting their preceious part of the internet. I enjoy a well crafted turn of phrase almost as much as a well crafted bottled beer. Why is giving and seeking examples of one fine and the other some terrible faux pas?

With regard to insulting people, I have to say that you seem to suggesting that popular posters have the right to insult me but I shouldn't respond because they've been here longer are well liked.
I'm afraid that sort of "politics of the playground" towards the new kid doesn't sit well with me.
Also I didn't actually insult one of the people you mention, I made a qualified statement. "IF you think ..., THEN ..."
