Can someone explain why isn't letting me pin MY comment on MY fucking video?!

The YouTube website, displaying Overreaction from Humans Incarnate by El Has, on the channel El Has Music. The user, clearly indicated to be El Has Music, has selected the three dots on his comment, but there is no 'Pin' option in the menu despite the fact that he is signed into the account that posted the current video and the comment he is trying to pin is posted under that same account.

Now we know why Chomsky quotes:

Here's #Catholic #World's #Review of John #Steinbeck's last #Novel:
The #Winter of Our #Discontent (1961):

It is #Regrettable that the #Author... invested the #Book w/ #MumboJumbo & #HocusPocus involving a #Talisman, a #Female #Witch, & #Ambiguous #Religious #Significance that results in a #Contrived, #Pretentious #Story...
-
The #Title is from #Shakespeare's #RichardIII:

"Now is the winter of our discontent
Made #Glorious #Summer by this sun [or son] of #York."

The Winter of Our Discontent is John Steinbeck's last novel and the title is taken from the first two lines of William Shakespeare's Richard III: "Now is the winter of our discontent / Made glorious summer by this sun [or son] of York". 
This is Steinbeck's only book set on the East Coast in Sag Harbor, New York.

#December 4, 1896
#OTD Edna Walling, #Australian #GardenDesigner & #Writer, is born.

Edna's #Naturalistic #Gardens never felt #Contrived or overly planned.

Edna #Randomly threw #Potatoes on the ground, & planted #Trees in those spots.

If potatoes landed almost on top of each other, Edna let the chips (or #PotatoChips πŸ˜‚) fall where they may.

Edna embraced the #Beauty of #Random.
