and i really don't enjoy pablo honey all that much honestly so i'll have to turn down your offer

no, I insulted radiohead. you insulted my IQ based on my thinking a band sucks. thats a pretty bold generalization and is typical of almost every hardcore radiohead fan, that if you don't like the music, its somehow your fault and you must walk around your farm all day toting a shotgun and listening to Guns'n'Roses. I assure you, I don't think liking Radiohead makes you a bad person or stupid. I just think they suck and have drawn people into liking their suckness.
To reiterate. You question my IQ because I don't like a band. Think about that for a second. Let it stew. How much of a loser does that make you sound like? You basically have confirmed the stereotype of pretentious angry psuedo-intelligent radiohead fan. congratulation.
Furthermore, I listen to many band who create more complicated, intelligent and listenable compositions than Radiohead does. Van Der Graff Generator, Captain Beefheart, Frank Zappa, M83, The Nice . . . I could go on. These are amazing bands. I don't feel Radiohead can match them even closely.
