Kobold King he/him Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 EDIT: Silverblade, you spelled "cello" wrong. I did? *checks* Nope, definitely spelled saxophone right. Guitar is the best instrument you silly creatures. 4
+Slowswift Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 In the (paraphrased) words of Steven Sharp Nelson, "Guitar, drums, and cello all at once weren't working, so I combined them all." 2
Kaymyth she/her Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Uh. Okay then. Wow. Where'd you recommend getting those, or the best ones? EDIT: Silverblade, you spelled "cello" wrong. I used both Alfred and Bastien as a kid; they seem pretty equal to me in terms of good. Though Bastien has a separate method for the older beginner that you might want to look into. It combines all of the different bits into just one book (with some performance supplements that are optional) and cuts out a lot of the cutesy for-kids stuff in the regular beginner method. You'd probably find it less insulting to your intelligence. Meh, piano's overrated. Saxophone is where it's at. I play both. And the oboe, and flute, and Irish whistle, and recorder...

+Slowswift Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 A little late to this music party, but... Well, I'm actually a fan of electronic music, which can be composed on a MacBook, but great post anyways.
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Well, I'm actually a fan of electronic music, which can be composed on a MacBook, but great post anyways. Whatever Skrillex does is many things, but music is not one of them.
+Slowswift Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) Whatever Skrillex does is many things, but music is not one of them. Never said I was a fan of Skrillex. I haven't seen much, but what puny amount I've seen does not really sound like something meant for human ears. Edited January 19, 2016 by Slowswift
Mistrunner Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Meh, piano's overrated. Saxophone is where it's at. [explodes with self-righteous pianist rage] [splutters] [bows at the altar of Chopin] [seriously Chopin is the best]
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 I admire you musicians. The closest I ever come to playing an instrument is when I manage to drum my fingers in perfect rhythm with the song on the radio.
Mistrunner Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Speaking of altars to random famous people in certain fields, my brother's calculus teacher had an altar to Pythagoras in his classroom. The offerings cup would apparently get very full around finals.

The offerings cup would apparently get very full around finals. Silly students, you make offerings to Pythagoras for Trigonometry, possibly Geometry! Newton or Liebniz would be better suited for calculus. 1
KaIadin he/him Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) People who tell you to do something in a specific way, then get mad when you do it in a specific way. People who argue with their age. People who touch your stuff without permission. (Don't you dare search up random "potato pe**s" on my laptop while I'm in the toilet) EDIT: Spotify ads. I mean, I get putting ads after the first song and after several songs, but do they HAVE to be the same ad? When there's a spammer on the boards but there are no mods on.

Kaymyth she/her Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 People who argue with their age. The way I read this at first had me wondering how on Earth you can argue about how old you are. Do people you know have a regular habit of forgetting how old they are? Do you have to make them look at their driver's license for evidence? Then I realized what you actually meant. Yes. Just because someone is X years old doesn't mean they know everything.
The Invested Beard Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Speaking of music: When someone asks me how I play drums, keeping track of what every limb is doing. Seriously HOW DO YOU DO THAT??? Training, practice and innate ability I guess? I just do. That's like me asking someone how they build a house after they build a house.
Ookla the Absent Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 I have a feeling it's easier to tell how to build a house. Computers are not instruments. The programs are not instruments. The MIDI's, mp3 samples, and presets are the instruments. And I play them ALL! Seriously, though, electronic music is still music. Random noise, however, is not. Forgetting my age. I've been doing this since I was thirteen and it just gets worse over the years. Forgetting where my ____ is. Forgetting what I was going to say (or type, in this case).
Silverblade5 he/him Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 People making jokes about school shootings/shooters. Especially when it's about Columbine, since I happen to go there. 1
Delightful Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 Except ThirdGen. He's a coworker as well as a Sharder, so no hugs for him. 1
Matrim Bloody Cauthon he/him Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) when people write reviews on a product they have never even used. please I am looking for a legit review to determine if I want to purchase this item, don't write BS reviews. when I am watching a movie and have to do something for my parents, when I get back to the tv my sisters have just thrown all of my stuff off of the couch and are sitting in my seat and watching a Barbie movie. I HAD THE TV FIRST. Edited January 28, 2016 by Matrim Bloody Cauthon
The Honor Spren she/her Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 When you've been super productive, then your parent walks in just as you're getting on your phone. Mosquitos. When girls take immediate dislike to other girls, just because the other girl is pretty and obviously must be mean, right?
Guest Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 when I am watching a movie and have to do something for my parents, when I get back to the tv my sisters have just thrown all of my stuff off of the couch and are sitting in my seat and watching a Barbie movie. I HAD THE TV FIRST. Welcome into my household This is basically how it is in between my two kids: if one leaves his/her stuff unattended for two seconds, the other will mercifully pick through it or trust it on the floor to make room for whatever other game suits their fantasy. I would thus rate as normal siblings relationship

Like, I know, right? Oh..my..gaaaawd, Timothy is sooo hot... I never quite understood that myself. Luckily, it is not as common as one thought... At least, that's my sincere belief.

Ookla the Absent Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 People mispronouncing foreign words. GAAAH! Especially Nahuatl.
Kaymyth she/her Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 People who think that turn signals are optional. Especially people who think that turn signals are optional and then change lanes in front of me four inches from my front bumper.

People who think turn signals are optional, change lanes in front of you four inches from your front bumper, and take their sweet time drifting into your lane, who then flip you off when you honk at them. You almost caused an accident, you idiotic jackchull.
