A thread for with which to vent.

I've never had anyone say that to me personally, but if someone did, I would ask, "Okay, then, break it down to me. First - tell me why you think I'm wrong. Second - tell me exactly on how many levels you think I'm wrong. Third - tell me exactly how you think I'm wrong on each level."
Iff yoo do dat on a TawkBass TBOT thred it will tern into three hunnert pajes long....
What is it with guys that start a NBD thread even though they had "just ordered the bass", or "it's on the way", or "it'll be here tomorrow"?
For all they know an asteroid could hit the UPS truck while it's headed up their street. Maybe it'll be another JPATA incident? What the heck?
I act like a buffoon 90% of the time, but I swear there are a lot of TBers that think like 12 year olds.

When you make a chicken salad or tuna salad or egg salad or any kind of sandwich where the contents are scooped and placed on to the bread, you do not simply place the chicken salad in the center of the bread and put another slice on top. You must spread the chicken salad. It must be evenly distributed so that each bite contains some goodness. Not just the middle. Don't be lazy.
Yes. YES!!!
Too many people have forgotten the meaning of the word "thorough." Sweat the details! Do it right, or don't do it at all!!! Especially when it involves food!!!

Fighting with a developer down the street. He's an incompetent, dishonest, idiot. Plus, his property is a colossal mess that's overrun by people who scatter needles, trash, and feces. Plus steal mail, steal bicycles, siphon gasoline, and generally make a pain in the butt out of themselves other ways. The mess is bad enough that you can smell the rat population from the sidewalk. We see rats roaming the neighborhood now, and we all know they are coming from this idiot developer's property. Sometimes the real bum is the guy with the money.
Cracks me up when I see TV cooks leave bare spots on bread like you stated, and also leave sections of food un-seasoned/rubbed, let alone the average household cook.
I know they are on a schedule, but they don't cook the food in real time anyway, it's always prepared by the off-camera cooks and then placed in front of the cameras.
Why not show one that is properly prepared stating "Yours should look something like this"?
Asteroids hit UPS trucks frequently....which is why most of the stuff we get is damaged beyond repair....
But isn't that why they charge $14.00 to ship a pick guard, or is it to pass it off to USPS and pocket $7.00?, They wouldn't do anything shifty like that would they??
I need to vent that I just went to a show and all the bass players had better rigs than I plan on having.
Or the guy waiting for a Dingwall opens the box and finds a no name body with an Ibanez neck nailed to it. Or something like that. I'm sure the thread still exists as a warning to others.
Fixed.
Never become too attached to a TBer or you may eventually find yourself saddened by their demise.
Looking up stuff on YouTube.
Say I'm looking for "Long Distance Runaround" by Yes. I find it.
It reads: Long Distance Runaround - Yes., and even includes the actual album cover.
I open up the link and it turns out to be some minor attempting to play it on the didjeridoo and added occasional eek...the camera is exclusively on their face, not even the instrument or technique!
Some are up front and tell you it's a cover before you view it, others...
Don't know if it counts for a view if it gets opened but not fully viewed.

Watching 24:Legacy.
Okay, I let the empty coffee cups pass (you know, when actors use a coffee cup as a prop and wave it around revealing the contents match what's in their heads), but the Ford F-150 racing down the street around other cars WHILE IN PARK was a little too far for even the most casual observer.
"Hollywood" does that all the time. Is it really so hard to make sure the gear selector isn't in park while filming a chase scene? Y'all suck.

Ever notice that they almost always remove the rear-view mirror from a filmed vehicle?
Always noticeable in interior shots..
Or every time a car moves. Every. Single. Time.
