This fromthe Kiwi reminds me of what may be my favorite line from the Gilmore Girls. The only problem is the blog post was about Green Day and the quotation is about Coldplay. But it still triggered my memory. Two members of a band have just wrapped up a successful performance.:

BRIAN: We were as tight as the Foo Fighters.

GIL: Tighter. Listen, if that pretentious little snot in Coldplay can walk around comparing himself to Bono, we can compare ourselves to the Foo Fighters.

Let not the band that has been around for a few years compare itself to anyone who has been a force for two-plus decades.
