    You still don't get it. I wasn't saying something to be cute, and I wasn't addressing your post to begin with. I'm not busted on anything. Your temper needs work.

    I don't care if you don't like me. Doesn't affect me one bit.

    Guys, this is ridiculous. Why are we talking about music when I just bought a pair of $200 jeans? I shall quickly amortize the purchase price over the bedposts of the scores of women I will boink while wearing them.

    SJC, obviously if the jeans cost $200 then I'm not taking them off -- not even for sex. I just pull the zipper down and hope I don't get pinched.

    Oh I get it - you have a hard time admitting you are wrong about something, especially when you are out of your league, rookie. As your brother would say, CASE CLOSED. Too bad you are not as funny as him, though.

    Others:

    Sepultura - Brazil
    Godspeed You Black Emperor! - Canada
    The Band - Canada (all of the members except for one)
    KMFDM - Germany

    Greatest synthpop groups ever:
    a-ha - Norway
    Alphaville - Germany

    This is the best thread ever in the Internet.

    I do what I can...:p

    Sure thing, cool guy.

    You are a TRUE EXPERT when it comes to music. That and $20 will get you a lap dance at Treasures. Congrats.


    but you're still wrong.

    I thought Republicans had higher standards than Treasures. Hey, I am wrong about many things but not when it comes to music and especially when it comes to arguing about it with YOU.:p

    But arguing with someone who has the mentality of George Costanza is fun for only so long. So, go ahead and get your last word in. I am done interacting with you.
