It must suck living with all those lameos. Remember that there're lots of cool people in California, especially in comparison to bum**** Virginia.

And of course they're not pop artist popular elphenor. Doesn't negate the notoriety that they already have.

You're clearly highly sheltered and only associate with fellow arty twats (who else would be able to take you seriously?), as I'm sure at least 9 out of 10 Californians have never heard of PiL either, let alone like them, and that's still California, which is not representative of anywhere but California.

1/10 people know them? Nice. That sounds popular to me.

Idunno it's kind of weird that you think that music enthusiasts come in small numbers and/or are irrelevant. Because neither of those things are true.

Batlord, you're not dumb enough to think that I'm saying almost everyone I know is aware of pil, are you?

I guess you're delusional about all aspects of music, not just your own. I'm sure being out of college will introduce you to the real world eventually, but until then just know that you're a self-parody.

Duh, but popular is still a vast overstatement.

I think we also have different definitions of popular because you're straw manning the **** out of what I'm saying with the whole psychoanalysis bit.

And your definition is not useful.

Then define "popular" cause you clearly don't use it in a way that the vast majority of people would.

Go read my initial post and get back to me mkay.

I get your point but the thing is you're not even contradicting what I meant.

When you basically back up someone who just says "PiL are popular", don't be surprised when people misinterpret you or whatever. Learn context.
