A song written by The Ramones (specifically by Dee Dee Ramone) in 1977 on their "Leave Home" album. The lyric goes: "I don't wanna be a pinhead no more. I just met a nurse that I could go for...D-U-M-B Everyone's accusing me!" The song was inspired by the movie "Freaks" and the comic "Zippy the Pinhead." The word "pinhead," in this context, refers to an outcast/freak/childish character with a cone-shaped head.
"Jo is wearing an outfit that looks different from what everyone else in the school is wearing. What a pinhead."
"Jo's head is pretty pointy at the top. I wonder what it must be like to be a pinhead."
"Gabba Gabba Hey!" - The Ramones

A Democrat who knows their shit. Though when invited to appear on The O'Reilly factor, their microphone tends to be cut off within the first two minutes.
O'Reilly: Oh, so you got evidence to prove Fox News was wrong on 9 million accounts? Well then, you have the last word, go.
Democrat: Okay, on the 21st of January you mentioned -
O'Reilly (eyes expanding): - OKAY, CUT THE MIC! CUT IT!
O'Reilly (calming down): Those pinheads really are hatfeul. But, at Fox News since we are 'fair and balanced' we have to give them their say. It's hard being fair. (smiles)

an oldstyle sail (circa 1975-1990) in windsurfing that has a pointy top. newer sails have battens that move the trailing edge of the sail away from the mast, and increase the angle that it makes at the tip of the sail.

When I was at the Summer Olympics at Beijing last summer I saw at the pin trading stand a pinhead trading pins with another person.

Old slang term for pinstripers, practitioners of the old art of pinstriping.
Pinstriping is most often practiced and painted upon hot rods and motorcycles, Pinheads however paint pinstripes on anything they think will look cool with pinstripes, such as Zippo Lighters, coffee cans, old whiskey bottles, and the namesake piece of art, bowling pins (Cool huh?)
Pinheads often gather together and participate in Panel Jams, where Pinheads bring their stripe box and some Plexiglas to pinstripe works of art and trade with their fellow stripers. One of the more well known ones takes place in the middle of March called the Ratfink Reunion, which is located in Manti, UT every year.
Some of the more well known Pinheads include (but are not limited to!) Herb "The Line Doctor" Martinez (arguably the most well known pinhead), Tommy "The Greek" Hrones, Dean Jeffries, Steve Kafka, Von Dutch, Hot Rod, Morkel Snorkel, Tommy "Itchy" Otis, Peter "Preacher" McDermott, Bob Spena (Apprentice to Von Dutch), John Kosmoski (Founder of House of Kolor), Craig Frasier (Inventor of the Slash Stripe), Enamel, Bobbo Dunn (Innovator of the curly type pinstriping technique), Willis Dormer, Jimmy C., Coop, and the Legendary Beam Brothers (Innovators of the Fresno Stripe).
It is unknown who coined the term, though it is agreed that it first appeared in the mid 70's.

Hey guys, did you see all those pinheads at the rod show last night?
Hey Jason, you're a pinhead right? They're having a panel jam downtown at the shop tonight.
