I can not stand basses that have more than 4 strings or look like antique furniture

need I go on

Figured maple? Get that out of here.
I also really hate Jackson headstocks. Not into Ibanez guitars but I don't outright hate them.
Undecided on Warwicks that I've seen. They sound good but I'm not sure about the organic shapes...the finishes are fine. Whatever, they're cool.
I don't like black pickup covers or knobs that look like they were salvaged from an 80's sound system. Both of these features are usually found on the aforementioned "antique furniture" basses.
I don't like six string basses and I know this is kind of stupid. Horribly biased but they just feel like jazz-fusion or prog-metal snobbery to me. One day I might get over this. Five string basses are okay. If the low string is not E.
I don't like the way car air conditioning feels and I'd rather roll down the window if possible. Most people I know want it the other way around.
These aren't even really confessions, I'm just bitching about trivial things since the bass comment was relevant.
I'm not sure how to feel about how so many of these hyped new indie-style bands fail at moving me to any degree. Am I behind the times? Is it just "oh man I'm so quirky, suck on this synth melody" insincere garbage? I don't know. Feels like I'm listening to the flavor of the month. That's oversimplifying it though.

On any given night I'm laying in bed for an hour or two longer than I meant to because anxiety is keeping me awake and I'm not sure why it strikes as soon as I'm trying to go to sleep. It happens during the day too, but that's bearable and it's more like an inconvenience. It comes every night though, and that's just like...what the fuck man, lay off. I know there are a few things I could improve upon, like going to bed earlier (though super early in the morning is when I feel is "my time") and getting some exercise. I have started exercising a bit lately...I need to get back to it again. Anyway, I don't want to take any kind of medication for it 'cause I feel like it would best be dealt with myself, but sometimes it wears me down and I'd like to just swallow a pill and be rid of it.

What?!

No love for extended range basses? Man, I want a 6 string so bad. 8 string guitar is first on the list though. 6 is not enough for a guitar.

i can't stand the lead singer of interpol's voice, and i think the strokes are kinda boring to listen to.

WTF? Why would someone wanting to have a low B string piss someone off?

I don't like super synthy fuzz. Other people can make it work well, yeah, but if I see a pedal described as "synthy fuzz" I pretty much immediately think "useless".
I just changed my avatar about 50 times, attempting to soften the edges a little. It's okay-ish now. I guess.

Temporarily...

i don't really like basses with low B strings. in my experience those really low notes just don't reproduce well in a room--even when a band has a state-of-the-art system like the one the Grateful Dead used to run when Phil Lesh was campaigning his 5-strings with the Dead in the late 80s/90s--and tend to turn to audio mush and interfere with the low frequencies of the drums. it's notable in this context how few orchestral instruments play that low. i think they CAN work, but i think it requires a major rethink of how to voice an instrumental ensemble, with the drums retuned and the guitars/other instruments playing differently in order to yield the sub-bass to the bassist. that would be cool, but to me playing a low C under a power chord just sounds clotted and harmonically unpleasant.

i'm also sick and tired of oscillating fuzz.

and i hate myself and want to die. and can't even make it into a catchy song like Kurt Cobain.

with the DBA thread in the gear forum and everything i have to use A LOT of energy to suppress my inner teenage fangirlish swooning.
