The spite, hate, rage, apathy and mild irritation thread...

i wish i could feel like i belonged somewhere again. in the early 90s, when i was married to my second wife, i was really happy. i worked temp doing desktop publishing work making more money than i'd ever made in my life and lived out in the avenues in San Francisco, just across Fulton from Golden Gate Park. there was a nice little shopping district a block away with a coffee shop, a dry cleaners, a hardware store, a pizza place, etc. I used to ride my mountain bike in the park every day. and we were so great together then, so in love, so connected. it's the only time in my life other than when i was a tiny child that i truly felt like i had a home. but i was depressive and untreated, and my wife wound up on coke, and we drifted apart in a horrible series of mistakes and failures that i don't think i'll ever get over. that was over fifteen years ago, and it still brings tears to my eyes to even type about it. even though i lived with the woman from whom i just split for ten years, it didn't break me nearly as much as losing Lee though we were together only for five. that was when i stopped believing in the future, and since then i've had to resort to determination and stubbornness and the meager comforts of faith to keep going. i try and i work, but i don't believe that anything i do, however grand, will work out...no matter how delicious, it'll all turn to ashes in my mouth before i can swallow.

you are an amazing person and I hope you can find that happiness again.

Why do people like to DI bass so much?

Why do people like to DI bass so much?

Because they are lazy and they suck.
And that is why.

It can sound pretty good. It is crazy how lots of people will ONLY use DI bass though, like it's some sort of holy grail. For me, DI bass is what you do when you can't record a good amp sound for some reason.

[D.o.S.]

If you're not using effects, DI-ing a bass works well enough.

Every time I listen to Husker Du, I can't help but think Billy Corgan's a dickhead:

My boss just announced today that because of deadlines we are only getting off 12/26 and 1/2 instead of the entire week like we were supposed to.

The kicker is that our clients are going to take off regardless, which means we're working to get things done to give them, but they won't even be there to receive the work from us.

It's not that having to come in to work bothers me so much as that this is part of a general trend recently of screwing us out of little things for almost no reason.

FTFY

[dubkitty]

i'm sorry...speaking as a guitar player originally from Chicago who likes to think of himself as psychedelic and weird, Corgan's made the whole side look bad with his behavior on the pitch, y'now?

12 minutes into the Atlas Shrugged movie.
Speaking as one of the few people I know that actually liked the book, so far this movie is one big

Update: Most of the cast is sub par, important lines are delivered poorly, the scene cuts are often too abrupt and make the whole thing feel fragmented. Ugh, the list goes on. Whether you like the premise or not the whole thing was just executed so badly.

Update 2: And I know this is nit-picky, but that zoom I just saw was fucking terrible camera work.
