You're demanding substance while providing nothing of substance yourself, and then, when an intelligent critique is provided, you simply dismiss it. That's tantamount to an admission that you're afraid of the deep end because you never learned to swim.

first, read a few posts up. i look at specific lyrics, describe the sound of the song as being something new for the band...

Well, aren't you just Greil fucking Marcus.

Your insightful, incisive commentary on the lyrics was, in fact, "lyrics like the following are heartfelt without being overly cheesy."

That's pretty fucking profound, friend, and I'm particularly impressed at the way you provided a frame of reference for your value judgments. On the one hand we have, I suppose, Cheez-Whiz, and on the other, In View. I'm glad someone, at least, can tell the difference.

And then to go on, by way of discussing "song structure," to such a brilliant insight as "its a completely new sound for the hip."

Hot damn! And does the sun also rise in the east?

Instead of typing out my derision, of course, I could simply have repeated what you wrote:

Escuse me for not digging through your threads to look at what you've said in the past. i was refering to the comment at hand.

But I didn't, for two reasons. Derision is fun, and furthermore, I can spell.
