Why a bass may be better than a girlfriend

Sign in to disble this ad
You don’t have to turn a bass on when you want to have fun with it

Basses don’t nag you about things

A bass won’t give you attitude

A bass won’t get jealous if you play around with another bass

A bass won’t make you late to a meeting

A bass can make very profitable earnings over time, while a girlfriend will just drain you of cash

It’s ok if your best friend plays around with your bass

A bass doesn’t care what time you get home

A bass will sit there quietly while you try to watch tv

A bass doesn’t ask if this makes them look fat

A bass is ok with you being a little rough when you play around

A bass won’t complain if you don’t talk to it for a few days



Just some satire for ya’ll. No offense to the ladies. Just got bored and put some down.

And I’ve observed that the hourglass hand motion that men use to describe a woman’s body can also be applied to a bass.

If anyone has any, add them to the list.

You can slap a bass and it won't file a restraining order.

A bass has volume control

Breaking a bass G-string isn't cause for embarrassment

When you get rid of a bass that you are tired of, you get cash.

Basses don't get pregnant... Lulz jk man, I'm only 13...

You can have as many basses as you want with out getting slapped in the face (and play with each one too).

Hahaha, I've never even had a girlfriend...

these aren't nessarily true...


- if you don't like the tune of your bass.. you can change it by turning a knob


but...
a girl friend is better than a bass because:
she'll play with your knob(s) for a change.

because you can slap it, pick at it, or finger it, and it doesn't care which you choose.
