Demolib is almost always used with "pinhead". Demolib is kind of nice. Pinhead is not- and of course is not even accurate of the people whom they are attempting to describe. Pinhead as you probably know is carny lingo for microcephaly. A very sad condition, and not something we should probably be calling other people. Pinhead is not really the appropriate thing to call people with whom you disagree on ideas. It is the kind of epithet that adds nothing to the discussion except a rather sad, dismal, epithet.

Works for me. I don't think you will be called that, BTW. All that posturing here is so silly - I grow weary of it and have long lapses where I don't post. People have their little roles and play them. I love smashing icons - Always have. I guess that's my role. Can't put me in a box. Nope. Can't be done.
