  1. It's clouds! Not coulds! Or perhaps you meant "woulds" but were talking about a synonym for "forest"? Man, you guys are so ambigious sometimes.
  2. It's grammatical. Jesus Christ.
  3. The funny thing is that since it's in German, it doesn't sound like he's reall angry. Anyone remember the video of that kid freaking out while playing Counterstrike? And how the hell did that guy get himself filmed doing that? I mean, really...
  4. Hi Beth. It's nice to have you back after a few days away, and it's nice to see you're still in decent shape. It was a wonderful decision to donate the organs. When my driver's licence was mailed to me, it came with an organ donor's card, but I didn't sign it for some reason. It's extremely heartwarming to see that a man's life was saved, though. P.S. Beth - we <3 you.
  5. I'm not 22. And really can't tell the difference.
  6. Depends on what kind of rock and roll you're after. Matt Good has been playing onstage recently with a very similar guitar, a Gibson ES-335. At heart, it's a blues guitar, but with the right equipment it can put out a mean classic rock 'n' roll growl. Given the construction, though, and the fact it likely has a rather thick neck, your guitar is probably best suited to rhythm playing rather than soloing. It definitely has rock 'n' roll potential. You could always switch out the pickups for a pair of Gibson 57's (a higher quality type used in the ES-335, which I am partial to). FYI, the guitar Matt is pictured playing with above is not the ES-335.
  7. Why are people laughing? Anal leakage puts a serious damper on how you live your life. Bike riding became a distant memory.
  8. That, sir, is a jazz guitar. It's definitely not what I'd suggest for someone just picking up the instrument and wanted to play on a simple electric solidbody. However, it is definitely a fine guitar. The list price is in the range of $1300 US, according to my sources. Keep the clients.
  9. I made a post describing my reaction to yours.
  10. Those of who are smart are too anal retentive to let it slide. You could have said "I'm connected to the pentagram because the CIA has been spying on me!" and we'd all have been, "What the fuck is this girl smoking?". Be clear about it.
  11. She already has. Picture post thread. Although really, you should stay the fuck away from her, you nasty pedophile. Even I would have extreme moral reservations about going that far down the age ladder, and I'm 17/turning 18.
  12. Epiphone is a decent quality brand. They're styled after Gibsons, but manufactured in Korea. My opinion: play around, literally. Even if you have the most basic skill in guitar playing (playing chords, a bit of soloing) go around to guitar stores, pick up a guitar, and play. Most likely you should play it unplugged, so you can get a true feel for how the thing plays, as well as how it sounds unplugged, which IMO should be a huge consideration if you're buying an electric. If a guitar sounds like shit when its unplugged, you can buy expensive pickups and make it sound okay. But if it sounds extremely nice unplugged, you can buy expensive pickups and make it sounds incredible. Nowadays, I play unplugged on my electric almost exclusively. It pisses off my family less. Sometimes I'll pop my headphones in to my amp and play like that. But, like I said before, Epiphone is a good brand... but for the price, you can probably do better. I own a Schecter that costs less than a considerable amount of Epiphones, but its quality is no doubt comparable to many guitars made in the U.S. (which cost the most). I'm not kidding, I've played Fender Stratocasters, made in the U.S.A. that had warped bodies and just didn't play or feel as nice as my Schecter does. Ultimately, if that guitar was given to you for free, hold on to it. A few questions though - what model is it, and what type of woods is it made out of? (i.e. body wood, neck wood, fretboard wood can all be made out of different woods), what kind of neck construction is it (through-neck, set-neck, bolt-on)? The most likely thing you've got is an Epiphone Les Paul, meaning it would be made out of a mahogany body, mahogany neck and rosewood fretboard, and uses set-neck construction (considered to have a warm sound and medium sustain... not as much as through-neck, but more than bolt-on). It's also probably got either a bone or plastic nut (mine is graphite), and a tune-o-matic bridge, which is what my guitar has. All in all, a nice machine, although it really does depend on what price point your guitar is at. The really cheap Epiphones go for about 200 bucks and I wouldn't touch those things except to pawn for the cash. So, I guess the big question is - is the top of your guitar arched or flat? If it's arched, hang on to that fucking client. If it's flat... well, thank them for the gesture.

    Well, if I'm gonna get all three degrees, I'd bet it would take the better part of a decade. If I just went for one, then the standard 3 or 4 years would do it. Anyways, I've condensed all the schooling into one simple sentence: Buy low, sell high. That's all I'll ever need to know. Example one: Customer: Uhh, hi, can you tell me how to make money playing the stock market? Adam: Buy low, sell high. Example two: Customer: Uhh, hi, can you tell me how to make more money playing the stock market? Adam: Buy lower, sell higher. Example three: Non-customer: Can you tell me where your bathroom is? Adam: Get the fuck out.
  14. Who knows? Maybe they're the same person. Or perhaps they both bought their personality at Sears.
  15. It's a pentagram, you fucking idiot. No wonder self-proclaimed wiccans and pagans are full of shit, they can't even get their own stories straight.
  16. I used to suffer from anal leakage. Now, with Mitol, my life is back to normal.
  17. I imagine it would work perfectly for your "I'm gay!" phase. It's pink! It works for guys (being slightly gay) and girls (pink = vagina).
  18. The Pink Panther Theme would totally kick ass during a mental breakdown. Scene: Adam studying for grade 11 university math finals last year. Is unable to answer many questions. Freaks out and starts throwing things. Dun-dun. Dun-dun. Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun duuuuuun.... The very thought tickles my insides.

    So, what, a few hundred thousand dollars and a decade worth of schooling? I can pull it off by next Wednesday. P.S. How did you manage to work in a management position in such an industry 5-6 years out of high school?
  22. So why do you wish that we knew them? It's not like we'd miss anything special. I've met identical girls. I'm not really that fond of them anymore, after they refused threesomes. But, back to the point, were they identical in the sense that they all shared a really weak sort of rebellion against conformity and "the man", while incapable of original and complex thought?
  23. i agree. i think its because my mum's best friend was very spiritual. she always had inscence burning and her walls were wine red with white crown moulding with ambient light. whenever i went over there i always fucking fell asleep right away. Then she groped you when your mum wasn't looking. It's what dentists do.
  24. then do it by albums Thing is, though, it would all sound so arbitrary. It's the same with using the names of songs by a certain artist to answer questions to describe yourself or your friends or whatever. I think it just oversimplifies how ridiculously long life can be to assign a full phase in your life just one album. I also take myself far too seriously. I just wouldn't feel right answering the quiz is all.

    That's because women love assholes. P.S. onetrickpony - you wouldn't happen to have a position for a guy who's going to graduate this summer, would you? In the neighbourhood of, say, a few grand a month. Qualifications: an OSSD and my common sense. I can be your ski buddy, but will likely need a place to stay in Vancouver. You can just give me an office, and I'll roll out my futon and sleeping bag at night. I do, however, come with all ski gear ready to go. I also double as a wingman.
