"Toan"??

[jthisdell]

Tone is what you sound like, toan is when you sound good.

You can have bad tone but you can only have good toan.

I remember in the late 90s when the trendy thing to do in Internet chatrooms was to write "kewl" instead of "cool." It never made sense to me because it's the same number of letters, so it's not shorthand or an abbreviation like "brb" when you need to type a message out quickly.

You know, as much as I grumbled about it, I'm glad my mom made me take a touch typing class when I was in high school. I type faster than I write and by default I type using proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

Kewl.

I'm still adjusting to "dope" as a synonym for what in the fifties was "hip" and in the sixties was "cool" and in the seventies was "far out." When I was a kid in the fifties "dope" was what guys finished their balsa and paper gasoline powered airplanes with and then sniffed. It really was called "airplane dope," which later became a generic for any drug, sort of like what was done with iconic brands like Coke or Kleenex.

It's a duality: Can't play, can't spell.

It happens.

Does a Rickenbacker have doo-dah nature?

My uncle recently got hip. The surgery went well though.

I know that's not real.

But it should be!

Toan itself is not real, but the search for toan is the only thing that is real! hehe

Dope has been drugs, a synonym for cool, something you call an unintelligent person, a nu-metal band...

Interesting how language simultaneously evolves yet also devolves into "brain rot" as technology becomes more prevalent. I should get off of TalkBass and go PlayBass and read some sheet music in one of my lesson books.

Well then, just change the knobs on your guitar!

DOPE is details on sighting your rifle based on previous shooting engagements & errors found to be able to apply appropriate correction to offset for windage & downrange elevation.
All with the goal of having clean, consistent kill shots. No animal should suffer needlessly.

I was talking more about the steam punk style of the pedal. Don't really care what it does to my sound...

You could change the knobs and get the pedal - instantly double your toan!

I'm surprised that as yet nobody has suggested that those who complain about bass weight should work on their muscle toan.

First time I’ve seen “toan”, so I guess it hasn’t bothered me.

That bird has floan.
