@LD: I have an accoustic, and I have it strung with nylon strings. When I was doing it, I asked a guy at the guitar shop about cutting the ends off, and he was like, "No, don't do that, just wind them up on the sprockets in the head all the way."

And I was like, "Oh."

So I just do that every time now. Why wouldn't everyone? Sure, it takes longer, but it takes a long time to restring a guitar anyway, what's an extra 5 minutes?

So now I have no scratchy bits, I know there's no way they're coming unwound on their own, and I think it actually looks way better to be neatly wound up all the way on the head; it looks pretty awesome.

Can anyone who knows more about guitars confirm that this is a horrible idea?

Also, if you were going to a restaurant, and she was going to be an hour late, what the fuck?

Does it take an hour to eat anything at all, ever? The only time it has ever taken me a full hour to eat at any restaurant is when the waiter/kitchen is glacially slow. I guess you were going out for drinks, and that takes longer, but an hour late? Really?

If I was going to be an hour late doing something, I'd say something like, "No, I can't go, I have this other thing I've gotta do, and it won't be done until <an hour after the start time>, like, maybe. Could even take longer." And then, if the inviters say, "Oh, you gotta come! Just go ahead and come when you get done, we'll see you there!", THEN it's ok, and otherwise I'm just not going. Not, "I'll be there, but I'm going to be an hour late, and could you totally stay frozen until I get there? After all, I am the Royal Magistrate of the Fucking Universe and all."

And, it truly is the height of selfishness to expect a ride to go get her ID. What can you do, in this world, WITHOUT an ID, that she happened to be doing, that she wouldn't have it on her anyway? If she's old enough to drink, she's old enough to drive, and you have to have your license on you at all times when driving. Whafuck?

Tell her I said, "Come over here, so I can kill you."

Restaurant meals can go on for a very long time in good company.

Lately, every time I do my laundry, there is always one sock that gets caught in a shirt or something and completely avoids being dried.

Also, I bit the back of my tongue two nights ago and instead of feeling better it just feels worse because the wound scrapes against my teeth every time I eat or talk.

Um well my boyfriend who has played guitar/bass/stringed things with that general shape for I don't know, 15 years(?) told me this was a stupid thing to do and he'd never do it. He lets them go crazy but then cuts the excess off so there is about 3-5 inches hanging off the top. When I once asked him why he didn't just roll them up all the way, he mumbled some things about how it isn't important and then kinda forgot what has happening because he is scatterbrained. All his musician friends do the same thing, and his father does, and his brother does.

Quite true. Especially at an all-you-can-eat Sushi restaurant. If the waitstaff want you to leave, they'll avoid your table.

"Circle The Wagons" is not some kind of all-purpose catchphrase that is always relevant to the discussion through some kind of... MAGICAL TURN-OF-PHRASE SHAPESHIFTER GRAMMARIAN MAGIC.

*When people justify poorly executed artwork by saying it's their "style."

This is often the case with people who claim they "only draw anime," which is another pet peeve.

*DISCLAIMER: This was prompted by the doodles thread, but not in response to any of the artwork posted there.

On the Escapist I saw a thread title on that forum feed thing they have on the right:

"Agnosticism: the only logical choice?"

FUCK, man.  FUCK.  Is it your first day on the internet?  Do you realize that we have already had every permutation of every possible religious debate?

Guess what: you believe what you do, other people believe what they do, and neither of you are willing to be convinced otherwise.  What the hell compels you to bring this shit up?  You're not going to magically fall into a fantasy world where people go "Huh, never thought of it like that, you're totally right and I've always been wrong."

Furthermore, the Escapist is a gaming site.  Why do you care about the opinions of people on a gaming site, or any other non-philosophical community?  Are you some sort of new fantastic life-form which subsists solely on the opinions of the ignorant?  That's the only explanation I can think of for dredging up that fucking garbage.

The internet has convinced me to not have any religious beliefs whatsoever.  I'm not an atheist, a theist, or an agnostic.  I just don't give a shit.  If the Powers That Be want to descend and let me know what's going on, great.  Otherwise, I've got a perfectly good reality to ignore.

Well, if logic is what dictates your religious faith, then yeah.

That's not the same at all!  Agnostic doesn't mean indifferent!  I can probably find you thousands of agnostics online who will debate at fucking length about how we aren't meant to know thus-and-such and how believing in X, Y, or Z makes you stupid and here's a million reasons why.  Fuck them, I don't want anything to do with them and I won't be labelled the same way.

I think you're wrong.

Debate me.
