I don't do stickers on my basses, but I don't care if others put stickers on theirs.
Here's an interesting Tbird that belonged to Jethro Tulls bassist...
Not something I would do, but interesting looking.
I've always kinda toyed with the idea of of a flat black goth with some subtle tribal red and white pin stripes. Kinda brings the original car concept back into play. If anyone has a pic of a pinstripe bird I'd like to see it.

Something related to polo?
Sort of, you're on the right track.
No booze involved. And agreed.
Really? Someone you all disagree with is now a "troll". You went after him, he went after you, rinse/repeat, blah, blah. Let's not make it something it's not.
The TBird was designed by an automotive designer, that's why it looks better painted, you wouldn't want your Lincoln looking like a tree would you?
Much agreed overall though.
You've hurt my feelings. A lot

He offers no proof of any of his claims as to tone or quality.
He modifies others posts.
In two separate posts I questioned the authenticity of his claims, nothing but B.S and derision from him.
This kind of thing doesn't happen a lot as most of us seem to be in sync with each other ( not all, but hopefully with respect for differences) and I find this difficult as I try to always see the "good" in any person.
This is supposed to be a fun, relaxed thread, not a pissing match, none of us really want that.

But TORT is just an allegory for FSO's of which it's fun to joke about. But honestly, I'd own a 7ender with a tort PG if I needed one and wouldn't care what anyone thought of it.
But jumping on people for liking certain bands and their music seems odd to me for a group of musicians. Saying that this or that isn't to your liking is one thing, labeling their fans is quite another.
...and then the Juggalos destroy my argument.

My girlfriend is building new teeth for Violent J. He's generally pretty "relaxed" when he shows up for his appointment.
Golf with your friends in a league setting is some good fun, IMO. Perhaps you're right that it's not cool but fun is fun!
Au contraire, my southern hemispherical thunder goddess! Alcohol! Enough alcohol can make anything cool! If alcohol alone doesn't do it, the addition of a motorcycle will! It's a li'l game I like to call booze polo!
The fun factor of golf is enhanced when the beer cart gal shows up!
While I'll don't get what their appeal is, they've built something. It has some staying power and a following many artists would envy if they knew how loyal their fan base is.
