  1. I'm very happy the Gators won, but I still feel like it was in spite of Napier. WTF was up with that timeout with 30 seconds left?
  2. Gunnar Helm 14, Kentucky 7. Burnt Ends, bitches. I literally love our defense. Especially McDonald. I may have McDonald's for dinner just because of him. I'll survive whatever outbreak.
  3. It's free on YouTube now. Go see it. Bad thread title or otherwise. It's SO funny.
  4. Yes, my line is paraphrasing the next lyric from this song
  5. i think this comment is about me
  6. whatever you think this movie is about, you're wrong some of the weirdest, funniest shit I've ever seen Whole dang thing available for free on YouTube.
  7. What's killing that narrative is a staff that can actually develop.
  8. hahahah Chiles Should Starts hahaha sparty can't pass or catch
  9. how about that drive? meep meep up by 2 td again
  10. Well. Yeah. Didn't they stop making cars while they retooled all their plants to make the new electrics?
  11. ... or put the wrong toy in the box based on the label
  12. Right? Exactly. It's weird and it's stupid and... it has done something that hasn't happened in decades: Get people talking about the brand.
  13. When in doubt, play the melody as your solo. Then you can start adding in color here and there. Sometimes the wrong note, now and then, is the right one.
  14. I'm the opposite, man. Can finger all day; lost with a pick. So I practice with a 2mm Dunlop. Big. Ass. Pick. Because the extra weight makes all the others feel easier by comparison, and I don't have to worry about it chipping or breaking. Plus, very metal. 🤘😁🤘
  15. I'm new to both the guitar and this thread, so I may be responding to really old things like the above as I dig through ... Yeah. The thing that surprised me the most about guitar was how easy it was. Now I'm my case I'm a classically trained cellist/pianist who also played electric bass... so I've got the theory already down, and... Well, to put it bluntly, being classically trained warps your perspective vs the guitar. I expected to take a lot longer to be able to do what I can now do. Hell, the guitar itself - Yamaha Pacifica - with everything costs as much new as a set of cello strings alone costs. So yeah, it's easy, all the more so if you've got some music knowledge. But I've still got a ways to go, you know? Hardest thing for me is still picking, using a pick. And ever since I learned barre chords I lost interest in learning any others, lol
  16. Hahaha yeah i figured. But see that's "you're fucked if you make one of several specific wrong turns" because you MIGHT end up in a bad neighborhood. In Pittsburgh, it's "you're fucked if you make ANY wrong turns" because Pittsburgh is a Civil Engineer's worst nightmare. (Or his "most reliable paycheck." It really comes down to attitude.)
  17. Oh no. No no no. See, all of those other cities you mention have this concept called "two way streets." You know, a street with at least two lanes, at least one going the opposite direction of the other one? Pittsburgh hasn't yet adopted this novel concept. And in any other city, if you happen to make a wrong turn... well, you just make a few right turns again and you're back where you started, no big deal, right? No no no, not in Pittsburgh. See this road here goes all the way around the mountain or through the valley. You're going the LONG way around, now, buddy. You may even have to leave the city before you can turn around and get back to where you were supposed to be. In short, you are doomed. You aren't going to make that appointment; better reschedule. Maybe if you're lucky, another errand you needed to run (where you missed the turn last week), you can make it there from this road, now! Unlikely tho
  18. Never even heard of it. I've been in a car on Pittsburgh roads, though.
