S/D-85: Tasty clippings from Corey's Box

Man someone brought a ps4 to my house last night, battlefield 4 was impressive. But I can't see myself buying a new system for a while yet.

Neither can i, I'm still enjoying the hell out of my ps3. I'm thinking that when it's time to trade up I'll just build a gaming/streaming/entertainment pc instead. Reading about fallout mods has me really wanting to go the pc route.

My issue is I have a smart tv, PC and Xbox 360 already hooked together. The ps4 seems a better buy so far than the xbox 1 but my setup has so many if not more of the features the ps4 can provide I'm essentially spending $399+ and game costs to just play games on it as I already have internet, 2 forms of Netflix and music on my tv, so it's purely who can get better games and content I don't have already as I got enough content overlap.
 
The wii u newer than the wii? And what's good about it? Been a while since I played a Nintendo creation.

Yeah the Wii U is the next gen Wii. Came out awhile before the PS4 and Xbox One but is 1080p. It's really slick. If you're a nintendo fan it's a great system. I like it because there are so many good multiplayer games the wife and I enjoy.

My nephew has a Wii u all I've tried is the Mario game it came with. It's pretty rad using the touchscreen to add blocks to save other people from falling to their deaths.
What are you and Mrs. Personality posting?
 
Quick advice needed; I have a lead on a '78 Ric bass in jetglo for $1000 cash. Dude says it's straight with just some average paint wear but plays well. Hasn't sent any pics though. Anything I should specifically look out for if I go check it out? Double tross rod, serial number on the stereo inputs, anything else "Ric" specific? Hoping he doesn't mind me pulling the pick guard off, maybe I can look for signs in the pickups to verify it's all real? I'm also assuming $1000 is a good deal, am I crazy?


Great deal if it's a real ric

That's definitely my biggest concern. I hope the guy is down to at least meet up tomorrow. I've studied enough the last couple hours to think I know spotting a fake or not. I mean, the guy isn't being too sketch or anything, he just hasn't sent me pictures yet. I'll keep you guys informed. I told him I'm ready to purchase given all he is saying is accurate, and to just let me know where/when to meet.
 
Sh1t fetish? That's just too crazy to imagine.

My drummer and I have decided to find a new guitarist. He's way too one dimensional and is 100% opposed to bring in a second guitarist. Not to mention a bunch of other stuff.

Asking to bring someone else to play time can doom a relationship if your partner isn't willing.

There was a kid at the elementary school my mom worked at that would hide in the bathroom and make wall art out of his poo paints.
