Sign in to disble this ad
I was visiting craig's list recently and some stupid a** types down this ad. it's more of a statement than an ad.

5 String Bass

All I can say is "Really?"

I just LOL @ the fact that some clown took the time to even bother to make that CL ad at all!
So he doesn't like 5-string bass...does anyone care?

Nope...not really. there will be crickets chirping for this guy. I honestly think this guy is really closed-minded.

Not quite sure how long the ad will be there. but it still exist. just need to click on the link twice. basically this guy was saying how much he hates 5-string basses. I honestly think it stupid that somebody posted something like that on craig's list.

5 String Bass - $1 (LAMESVILLE)

Reply to: sale-8gwyv-xxxxxxxxxx@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]
5 string bass is sooo lame-anyone playing one is a huge dork and obviously has no taste or ear for music! Nothing sounds worse than the gassy fartlike tone of a low B string..and if yr 5th string is placed above yr G string you are a no talent lazybones who cant work his way around the neck. 5 STRING BASS?? Really?

CL poster is just another web-troll...with an IQ close to his shoe size.

I like "fartlike" tone sometimes.

Can you just picture him while posting the ad....a girly-like giggle, thinking "oh, this is the funniest ad ever, I'm a comic genius tee hee hee"

Then his mommy says "I told you to get to bed 30 mins ago....you have school tomorrow!...that's it...no TV, Internet or Video games for a week...and I'm cancelling your 11th birthday party this weekend...now get to bed Wendall or you'll get a spankin'"
