You gotta make it a hostile environment and show them the door. Telling the story often works.

This should work than. You don't gotta say nothin. A picture is worth a thousand words, something or other...

 

[JJR58]

Push...?
Repel...?
Yell at them...?

Yell.

 

[Gaolee]

He'll be dropping it off, I have a chrome plated PG for it.

I won't have to drop it off. It will run off on its own!

 

[Gaolee]

We even played with Lawn Darts!!! Oh my!

Mumbledepeg. If you know what that is, then consider doing it with hatchtes. Some of us are proof that God looks after idiots.

 

[Count Bassie]

Embrace! Introduce them to your friends or whatever the heck we are.

I don't let them surface until they've torqued up enough tension in my life. It's like a good meal, you don't serve until it's done cooking.

 

[JJR58]

For you upright players.

 

[JJR58]

Just gotta push the envelope.

 

[Gaolee]

For you upright players.

It would be great to have intonation like that. Maybe someday.

Sh!t sure won't be me.

 

[Engle]

Sh!t sure won't be me.

Or me. Open stings are my friends

 

[fasterpussycat]

Or me. Open stings are my friends

Open stings! I find them a bit buzzy.

Track and field meets have trouble recruiting javelin catchers.

Here you go. Watch at your own peril.

 

[Count Bassie]

Here you go. Watch at your own peril.

Oh the humanity. No wonder we're doomed.

 

[PillO]

It would be great to have intonation like that. Maybe someday.

Psssst. This is why frets were invented.

 

[Count Bassie]

Psssst. This is why frets were invented.

...and why there's a fretless electric in my future...

 

[PillO]

...and why there's a fretless electric in my future...

I thought that was so that you never had to tune again.

I played sax in a band backing up a Jewish comic[I'm a wasp]. I had shoulder length hair and a beard(still have the beard, hair long gone). The comic would walk back and forth in front of the band and there was a guy operating a 'follow spot' from the back of the room. At one point the comic stopped suddenly, the spot didn't and landed right on me. Without missing a beat, the comic said "Loved your sermon on the mount" and continued his act. The audience laughed and everybody in the band cracked up, too.'Course this was the 70's when people expected there to be an 'edge' to humor.
I always appreciated the humor of Pryor, Foxx, Carlin, Callas, etc., all of whom could be a bit crude where it fit unlike some of today's "comics" who say an obscenity that has nothing to do with the story and people laugh(nervously?)and think it's funny.
I've heard a few ex-stand up comics say they won't do stand-up again 'cos people get so easily offended and it's just not worth the hassle. Too bad.

Plaid Jesus ?

My JC hard case is thicker than my Thunderbird hard cases. But, having said that, you REALLY NEED a JC. More so than the Mod needs trucker jackets and shoes...

I’m still enviously snooping through JCB threads.
One day the stars will align.

Here you go. Watch at your own peril.

Just what level of pure stupidity must one have to stand down range in some proximity with an incoming javelin? Weeding out the inferior is the only thing I can think of. Actually stupidity is too mild. Stupid people would know better.

Open stings! I find them a bit buzzy.

Not on the upright. Open strings are how some of us hacks figure out where we ought to be instead of where we are. People who actually practice and have other strange and quaint ways don't have that issue.
