Went from all boutique to mostly Boss

[rustywire]

Oh, so I didn't even notice this thread was 15 pages deep and its trajectory, when I hit dat quick reply
I'm catching up now with the shit show.

NSFW: show

Putting aside the question of which pedals just sound better*, I would rather support a small business with my pedal collecting than shovel more of my hard-earned cash to a giant corporation.

*you would have to be crazy (or mind bogglingly boring) to think any Boss dirt can stand up to the SS/BS stuff

I guess I am crazy because my TAFM and Mini went back in the drawer post haste once the HM-2 came to town.

I'm sure that ROCKS for your Deep Purple cover band.

Never played a Deep Purple cover in my life, although thanks for exposing the snobbery I am talking about in this thread. Yeah, i'm sure your "experimental ambient noise drone shoegaze post rock indy" band has filled anywhere near the capacity Deep Purple did in their heydey. Not a Deep Purple fan even, but come on man, stop being such a prissy snob.

Something tells me that sounding like a tryhard hipster who's embarrassingly short on self-awareness, isn't your intention.
Yet here you are, ass out and acting like a satirized caricature of cliche. Dude, lighten up.

Went from all pedlols to mostly patchcords

[rfurtkamp]

From what I've heard of the various demos (and there just aren't any good ones), I'll stick with my venerable Boss GL-100s over any of the SS/BS dirt.

I'm just not hearing anything I *need* in it.

I think it's a pajama boy. Get a load of this nonsense: http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2017/01/ ... women.html

Clicked on it despite the URL.

First paragraph hurt my face. Couldn't read more.

If we were in person, I'd happily discuss the real position I take on this. Since we're on a forum I'll just say this.

You can't even call a guy a pussy anymore!!! Or a wussy. Or a sissy or a bag of dicks. I don't want to live in a world where I can't call another man a floppy bag of dicks.

If we were in prison...I'd make you drop the soap.

Was at the playground with my kid yesterday and there were a bunch of ex-sorority young moms there. One of them was pushing a little girl - maybe 2 or 3 years old I guess? - really high in the toddler swing and the kid was getting freaked out. The sororomom was teasing the little girl, like "what's the matter - are you a wussy?" And the little girl was yelling back "YES, I'M A WUSSY!"

Quality mom skills right there

Deep Purple are great, as is Merzbow. Didn't know we were supposed to choose between either classic rock or full-on noise.

As long as your real life discussion doesn't include arm wrestling I'm totally down. I'd win too because I'm totally right.


Boils down to language associated with traditional hetero male qualities being generally positive, and language related to traditionally female or non-hetero qualities often being derogatory. Which in and of itself doesn't have to be problematic, but taken as a whole really says a lot about how we collectively view anyone who isn't male and hetero. But these topics don't lend themselves to internet discussion. Clearly, Deep Purple and Boss pedals do, as the quality of this thread attests
