The cap in my guitar is comically large. It's bigger than the pot.

I can't be bothered with the nu-metal thread but any other New England/Northeast bros remember these guys?

CS players are the worst.
I always thought League of Legends players were some of the worst that the internet had to offer but yeah, now that I think about it CS players were just as bad.
Using AWP instead of Scout? "Kys noob"
P90? "spray and pray scrub"
Auto shotgun? "nubcannon"
Deagle? "fgt"

Woulda been a fun game if you took out the entire player base.

LoL players were insanely toxic until fairly recently. They've been massively cracking down on toxic chat/gameplay so it's far less prevalent than it was back when I first started playing the game (like 10 years ago).

COD players are still pretty toxic ime. Still plenty of shit talking and slur hurling even with Activision's code of conduct/chat banning. I instantly mute both teams and then it's fine.

To that end, I don't know if I'd say online gaming or Counterstrike are specifically anti-woman, as much as they're just toxic in totality and they'll latch onto anything that makes you different to insult you.
I don't know that these are opposed to eachother. Both can be true.

Totally overboard on the budget for these Bateman commercials.
I swear, if we don't see Bateman show up as a knockoff Batman in the next movie, trying but failing to do vigilante justice, DC has failed as a viable universe.
Counterpoint: I historically play zero or close to zero competitive online games BECAUSE they're littered with racist/homophobic/misogynistic raging.

I think online gaming was the genesis of the "hate watching" trend we see in Twitch, the YouTube, Instagram etc comments where you talk down to people as totally subhuman. All the "you wouldn't say that to someone's face" which, after a couple decades of it going on, people are now saying to eachother's faces.

To that end, I don't know if I'd say online gaming or Counterstrike are specifically anti-woman, as much as they're just toxic in totality and they'll latch onto anything that makes you different to insult you.
I never could wrap my head around the big online multiplayer games for this very reason. I tried it maybe three times. All three times was just people screaming slurs at each other. I honestly don't know how that culture developed in those games, but it's not very inviting even to us standard run-of-the-mill white dudes. I mean, I can talk some serious shit with my buddies, but nothing we say to each other comes anywhere close to the hate filled vomit-spew diatribes those people fling the entire time they're online. What part of your life is so bad that it makes you feel the need to vent like that? Put that energy into something creative, for chrap sake. Write torture-porn horror or something to get that shit out. Good grief.

At any rate, I gave up quickly on the big multiplayer online games. Never really had a desire to go back.

I did something dumb I should have learned back in boy scouts. During that wall tear down above we pulled out plenty of very old studs covered in nails, and dumb me decided to stomp through one nail laden board and the one nail heavy side flipped up and stabbed me in the leg real bad. Probably 3/4 inch deep in 2 spots. Went and got tetanus shot and an antibiotic. Dumb dumb dumb.

Brutal. Tell me you at least took pictures for your next album cover before you got fixed up.

It wasn’t too long ago that I saw a post on here about the used guitar market stagnating. But I’ll be damned if it’s not the opposite now. Seems like used guitars are selling quickly (and at a premium, and the in-stock Kiesels are gone the day they’re posted - for $3000 and up. Are people flush with cash, or just assuming America is coming to and end, and we might as well go out with a bang and some nice guitars?

If there was another later of it, I'd probably just assume ground meat
