One of my good friends informed me that on an episode of some crappy sitcom, one of the characters' garage band was embroiled in an argument about its musical direction (apparently, they take their pop-punk quite seriously ). One of the members said, in a very sarcastic tone, "We might as well add a flute and a synthesizer and call ourselves a prog band!" I was offended at first, but then amazed at the fact prog was mentioned so prominently on mainstream television.
Arguing on the internet is a lot like the special olympics - even if you win, you're still retarded.

They mentioned King Crimson on Malcolm in the Middle.
