The Confessions Thread

[Achtane]

I played Battlefield 3 for like...
...30 hours in the past 3 days. Fuck. Everyone had a couple days off from work.

Right now I don't give a fuck about learning music theory or practicing or even touching a guitar. I just wanna make drones and stupid noises because they're easy and satisfying. But not really satisfying.

[MEC]

Make drones over footage from Battlefield 3.
Make drones using sounds from Battlefield 3.
Maybe more satisfying.

Here's another: I want to solve two Millenium Challenges.

i love adderall.

I've tried to be respectful, and I WILL go down for as long as it takes (ASSUMING I AM ALLOWED). Please don't think of me and the rest of us(mostly the rest of us, I'll be a martyr) as a bunch of pervs. Just remember: When we say "dayum that piece of ass is sexy" we're not devaluing your intelligence or anything else. A compliment is exclusive, not outright.

duder,

you're kinda missing the point.

All I'm saying is that you can appreciate the female form without devaluing their other qualities. I think, it's really not important anymore

I want to sleepy sleepy all day and I don't want to write my paper.

[smile_man]

yeah, but like, when you reduce someone to an object you're kinda devaluing them.

specifically referencing the "that piece of ass" comment.

I suppose if you take it literally. I could've considered that word choice a lot better. It all depends on how you take the metaphor. If I'm calling someone a piece of meat, they could still be a prime rib. Though you're right, it's all about the semantics. Like "dayum that respectable, self-empowered humanized embodiment of Athena in sexy!"

All I ask is that ladies remember that guys are secretly insecure as fuck and value recognition and validation of our physical being more than anything.

[smile_man]

Okay, i get chuh.

All i ask is that dudes try and understand that ladies/whomever may not like/need validation from others. And that it can be hurtful.

No beef with you brah.

I just played a twelve string for the first time and the first thing that popped into my head was "Wish You Were Here."

[snipelfritz]

My buddy has a 12-string and every time I pick it up I play "Over the Hills and Far Away" by Zeppelin right away. That song, and "Wish You Were Here", are probably the reason I started playing guitar.

When I'm in a guitar store I can never remember any songs other than "Search and Destroy" and anything off Ziggy Stardust(usually the title track).

I don't even know what my point was, I think it was one of those "Just take the compliment" things. But this is all theoretical, I know when you're actually interacting with women all logic goes out the window and you're always wrong.

I prefer to play bass through guitar amps. I also like guitar through PAs and bass amps.

[smile_man]

playing guitar through bass amps is the shit. i wish i could justify getting a massive bass stack.

[the_carl]

All I have at home is an old beat to hell Roland bass combo with a 15" speaker, and I love playing my strat through it. Bass, it sounds awful, but it somehow manages to be awesome with guitar, both clean and fuzzy.

[snipelfritz]

I have a 1x15" bass speaker enclosure with a dead speaker and I need to do something with it. I might make it into a synth station. It'd be the perfect height.

EDIT: I just need a synth, and a sequencer, and a drum machine. I have the obligatory hipster-macbook already, just no idea what to use it for.
