Functionless Art is Merely Tolerated Vandalism
I have to ask, where do you find the time? Single? Unemployed? I could easily get 4-6 hours in when I was younger but once life came in, finding 4 hours to dedicate to anything other than work is hard as heck, let alone every single day.
All fine and good. I understand what OT means.
Still something ironic about people talking trash about people who aren't here while pretending they aren't being douchebags by doing so.
Either make hay,
Or,
Get off our lawn!
Edit; I can safely say that in my short time here on TB and getting familiar with most of these posters here, they are merely keeping up the appearance of being douchebags.

My buddy practices that much per day, but he's a professional musician who has a bit more "free time" on his hands than I do with my professional career. There was a time when I'd practice 6-7 hours a day, everyday, but it has been a few years since I was last in high school
WOW!!
3 days and this self centered, class slave's hissyquit is still at the top of the queue?
Love him or hate him, based on volume of response to his "kiss my butt goodbye", you must admit this guy made quite an impression in his time here.
Granted, it didn't take a rocket surgeon to see just how class conscious this guy was, or how determined he was to convert the world to his POV, so him stomping off when he couldn't save the rest of us from ourselves is as close to a self fulfilling prophecy as most of us will ever see.
I used to suffer from the delusion that the entire world was entitled to my opinion, but then I pulled my head out of my rectal orifice and gave up trying to cure the world's dumbassery. I've learned that far too many folks just don't feel right unless their head is driven as far as possible up their discharge chute and no matter how hard you try to convince them of the joy awaiting them if they would just relax and pull their head out, they are equally as determined to prove to you that what they are doing is not only right for them, it's also right for you and every other mouth breather on this planet.
In any case, keep thinking up new and inventive ways to verbally abuse/denigrate two fingers. I'm learning all kinds of new things to use next time I am forced to mingle with certain of my unibrowed, dirt ignorant in laws.

Dedication.
Married, no kids, fantastic job.
Fill your profile in and tell us a bit about yourself.
Well, seeing how most people here are in this thread, I think I won't.
One really doesn't want ones bidness on the street.
Well, seeing how most people here are in this thread, I think I won't.
Don't let them scare you.
I find it's best to put yourself out there.
Be proud of who you are, no matter what others say.
And have fun doing it!
Well, seeing how most people here are in this thread, I think I won't.
Just out of interest, why did you open an account?
Well, seeing how most people here are in this thread, I think I won't.
I see you're new here. Honestly, the guys here aren't malicious. Think of OT as an E-fraternity. A bunch of juvenile, self-deprecating fools with more time than sense sometimes, but overall good folks.
You really can't take this place too seriously, so if you decide to stick around, patiently wait for, and embrace that inevitable E-wedgie that awaits you.
We've all been there.

Hey my friend. You have a valid point about us ripping on TF. It the way you express yourself that puts people off. Maybe you are not aware of that or maybe your are and don't care.
I suggest you stop and ask yourself what is the motivation for your comments. If you are trying to talk sense to us and help us realize that our behavior could be better then you are going about it the wrong way. I don't mean this as a put down of you but I do present it as a challenge. You come across as smug and that you consider yourself superior to the rest of us poor slobs. No one will take you seriously because you are exhibiting the the same behavior that accuse others of.
If your motivation is something different than trying to make things a little better and encouraging people to treat each other with respect then carry on.
I have only been here a couple of years and have seen quite a few people who talk like you come and go. Maybe this is not the best forum for them.
I hope you understand my motivation. I really am trying to encourage mutual respect here. Sometimes I screw up in that.
Tie the body to the rear bumper and drag it through town until there's nothing left but a bloody rope...then drive around some more.
I love this place.
It could be worse. In the Good Old Days it would have happened in reality.
I am actually trying to give you a bit of a welcome, but if you are going to be antagonistic and difficult...well, you're on your own. I'm giving you an easier ride than most would around here.
This is the only forum here that isn't bass related. I'm sure your presence would be greatly appreciated in something more serious than Off-Topic.
If you are here for serious bass related stuff, then filling out your profile will get you into significantly more bass related conversations with people who seriously know their stuff, believe me.
That's it. No more questions...and good luck.

Don't call me good folks. YOU DON'T KNOW ME!
