Also they may or may not breathe through their legs or random openings in their bodies or whatever.
In conclusion, fuck spiders.


spiders are awesome.
I'd like to buy a verellen big spider.
with a spider living in it.
and pooping in it.
I'd feed it regularly.
spider silk can enchant your fragile upper harmonics.
and spider poop refines your low end.
how could I have been so blind?
that crybaby snipz sold must have been glorious +_+

My gripe is when some a-hole describes their used pedal as 'minty', what the fuck does that mean? It's been infused with peppermint essence? It's kinda new looking, but kinda not? Isn't that excellent condition? Or, almost as good as new, but not cause its used somewhat? Either the damn thing is in mint condition, ie, never opened and never played, or its used. lame.

Anyway, I've bought enough 'minty' effects covered in dust, dog hair, shitty low quality and peeling off the bottom velcro with scratchy pots to pretty much ignore any douchebag that describes their 8 year old phase 90 or equivalent that's been sitting on a piece of plywood in their dads garage for fuck knows how long as 'minty'.... cocks...

Aside from that, I'm cool with whatever condition the effect is in so long as the seller actually describes the damn thing as it really is and prices it accordingly. I clean any used effects I get anyway. I mean, sometimes during practice I activate these effects with my hands, and I don't wanna touch whatever weird shit some dude I've never met deposited on the footswitch from off his shoe.

I also clean anything I sell so it looks as good as new, minus any wear I or the previous owner applied to it. This is just good business practice, and I intend to b/s/t around these parts for the foreseeable future, and I want to maintain a good reputation. Besides, I'm a neat freak when it comes to effects pedals, so...
