  1. This. Latin medical texts also make this distinction. It's fucking weird, but also reflects what we continue to perceive as "Normal."
  2. Yes, that was a bit dramatic. However, in the 1970's that shit fucked up some lives. Recoverable, but not without significant scars.
  3. Eh, check out the "Wives and the stupid things they do" thread. Other than the giant crab, insane shopping, and a few other exceptions my husband does some wife shit on the regular. Dick.
  4. This is, unfortunately, not uncommon at all.
  5. I see that I didn’t scroll down far enough. Still fucked up, but it has been addressed.
  6. A choice? Why would someone choose to be marginalized and discriminated against? For funsies?
  7. This. They are also the trump train people that tried to run Biden's bus off of I-35.
  8. A fantastic American story. I need that rib recipe.
  9. I have an AC10, Mustang, and Spark. I play the AC10 for the most part, but I would recommend the Spark over the Mustang for learning and trying out different sounds. Fender stopped supporting the software that made the Mustang a better amp than it is on its own. I haven't used all of the Spark features because I am lazy, but if you download the app there is a ton of "free" shit on there including backing tracks and it will give you the chords to any song you want to play along with. Gordeho gave a nice write-up and video reviews a page or two back. The Spark is a good buy.
  10. Did you check out the snack bar menu? I thought of you when I did.
  11. Picked up the tele from Strait. Wow. What a difference. She did a ton of cleaning, polished the frets, cleaned the bridge, stabilized the neck pickup, re-drilled the stripped holes for the strap locks, cleaned the electronics, adjusted the truss rod, and did a bunch of other stuff that I'm probably forgetting. The new bone nut and strings are fantastic. I'm not a good player, but I do have a very good ear and I can hear the difference in the new nut and fresh strings. There are so many things that I didn't know were bothering me until I picked it up and they were gone. No more scratching sound when I adjust the volume or tone. The neck pickup isn't flopping around. It is just fun to play. To all of you that recommend a set up, thank you and I'm sorry it took me so long. I was out the door for $140 and I couldn't be happier with the work. Just fantastic.
  12. Angry. I’d like to go back to not knowing that 40% of the country is stupid as hell, batshit crazy, and unpatriotic selfish bastards.

  16. Do you know if this is available for sale somewhere? I find it hilarious and awesome and would like it framed in my office.
  17. Dude with the Squier and capo is my hero.
  18. They're dipshits and strip drain plugs. Corporate structure rewards bullshit upselling. I use a local shop and they're quick. If you trust that JL shop, good.
  19. Jiffy Lube? Good lord, man. I'm a female and know better.
  20. She mentioned that. Switched to d'addarios for the tele.
  21. On a more positive note, I dropped of my Guild ( https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/GD140AB--guild-d-140-antique-burst) at Strait in January for a set up. I needed the action lowered and I wanted them to service the tuners or replace them. I wasn't in a hurry and knew their reputation for long wait times. After I got the estimate on the tele, I called Strait and they put me on the phone with Jess right away. She explained that my guitar slipped through the cracks and would get that shit done right away with me on the phone. I pick it up tomorrow. ~$100 for a nice set up and Elixir strings. If I can get the tele from the shop tomorrow I'll leave it with Strait when I pick up the Guild.
