Dude was pissed he didn't get a green room and have like food provided for him at a local art house show (this was way a long time ago before he was big....Right around the time he released that obnoxious crystal cat song).
Haha. I heard he threw a fit and was MR rock star from my friend.

You sound like perhaps you would be better served fucking yourself than writing on this forum. Perhaps you could fuck yourself with one of your Boss pedals? Lube it up and shove it straight up your asshole. I bet it'd fit.
Another suggestion. Perhaps eat shit and die?
Lol. That was funny bro. You finally showed a little creativity there.
And Ps, no I'm not a TB member. That place is the king of all Soy Boy locations.

Don't worry dude - no one is upset and threads get way more derailed than this around here.
What's your problem there buddy?

That's one thing we'll agree on. I hate TB so much.

Want to say I'm surprised but I can't at all.

I got nothing against 'em - in fact I'd love to have a few Boss pedals now so I could circuit bend them.
I have gotten rid of all my boss stuff over the years as I've interacted with more and more boutique builders because I enjoy that aspect of pedal collecting. Being able to talk with someone like Brian or Louise and Aen or Scott is a much more rewarding experience than buying from a more faceless company. I don't GAS for Boss, and I probably won't ever buy another Boss pedal new, but I sure wouldn't mind or feel limited by having a board full of 'em in front of me. I think they're a little less fun on their own than, say, a Pretty Years or a Count to 5, but just like most boutique shit they're better in numbers. I will say that I don't really go for much fuzz/distortion/gain unless Brian makes it, because no gain circuits sound as good to my ears as his.
Also I guess another perk beyond just being able to directly ask the builders questions is service. When I sent in an EHX Cathedral for repair (not my fault) I had to pay $35 and shipping both ways. When I've sent any of my boutique pedals in for repair, I have only ever paid shipping to the manufacturer, and Dwarfcraft even covered that for me the one time I had to send something to them. Also I typically get my boutique stuff back within a week of shipping it in, and my Cathedral was gone for almost a month, so
I still really miss my DD-6, which I gave to my old roommate for Christmas two years ago...
PS sorry to get on-topic

Snowflake, I've heard a lot in this recent inflammatory political environment.
I get the gist of the insult, weak as it may be... but Soy Boy?
I can't for the life of me fathom it's meaning as an insult.
Is it... sexual?
It's sexual isn't it?
It is.
In the context of gear forums, I hear about people "drinking the Kool-Aide"
So is it like that? But with like Santorum?
"What's this? A new flavor of the week weak pedal?! Y'all Soy Boys be drinking that Santorum!"
Guys... please let's make this a thing now.

I also went from cool booteek stuff to mostly Boss, sometimes I make songs, sometimes I make senseless boring noise too.
