I thought NIN covered Cash, not the other way around :)

Prodigy did a kickass cover of Jesus Jones' 'Zeroes and Ones'. I also love Godsmack's cover of 'Another Brick in the Wall', and Metallica's 'Turn the Page' rendition simply just PWNZ0RZ!

Second, Dali wasn't the first artist to be a celebrity. That had been occuring for hundreds of years. I also specified the Avant-Garde and experimental art.

Warhol's actions did damage to the Avant-Garde, because he reduced it to commercial, popular art. Plus Dali actually had talent, while Warhol was a purposeless appropriating hack.

But whatever. I just hate Warhol's guts and am glad that he's dead. It's only a pitty that his earlier assassination attempt wasn't successful...

Y'all two knock that shit off before I get Zaia in here. Now go get a room and kiss-and-make-up.

Then don't fucking do it. Know why? Because, with just that little phrase, you've broken two board rules:
Official Board Policies wrote:Debating Rules
1. Do not "hijack" threads by trying to change the subject in mid-stream. We are aware that a discussion may meander into different tangents and even different subjects without any conscious effort to make it do so. However, there are times when, in the judgement of our staff, someone has deliberately ignored or tried to change the subject of a thread.

2. The "vendetta" rule: pursuant to the hijacking rule, do not "follow someone around" because you dislike him, hijacking threads in which he participates in order to carry on your feud with him. This particular form of hijacking is considered the least acceptable of all hijacking offenses.
So get a fucking clue and GET OVER IT. All of you.
