Drop D is the easiest tuning. I can do it by ear by hitting the E A D strings and tune the E down until I hit that amazing chord (open D5?).

[timmy]

I know, right?

"How american of you."

Jesus. That guy's radiating an aura of such smugness and condescension that is must be lethal out to at least fifty meters.

He implied to Flagg that being unconcerned with a war crime committed two hundred years ago is both callous and a uniquely American thing.

That was Lonestar, not Flagg.

oh.

[evilsoup]

that's a pretty ridiculous standard
especially coming from a guy who idolises bismark

man I just found out that there's a japanese cartoon called Bismark, stark maybe you'd like it, wikipedia calls it a 'space western'

[evilsoup]

it's a true thing
there's a scottish guy called 'richard lancelot' and a french love interest called 'marianne louvre'
of course their leader is a 17-year-old japanese nerd
together they are TEAM BISMARK and they fight the DEATHCULA

oh god oh god I almost want to watch this ironically what is wrong with me

Half a football field, yall.

[Oxymoron]

[RogueIce]

The only kind that matters:

[Agent Bert Macklin]

Who is that?

[Flagg]

Tom Lady. I mean Brady. I mean lady.

[Darth Fanboy]

Tawm Bradee. You know, the guy who loses to Eli Manning.

Flagg, has anyone ever mentioned that you might have some rage issues?

Apparently thinks dead holocaust Jews are in Hell. This is hilarious to me for some reason.

fair enough, I'd say

It's funny to me too, considering the history of screaming "I'm offended! BAN! BAN!"

TEO needs an "acceptable target" sticky.

Where?

Speaking of this thread gives me a strange feeling

I mean here we are with a massive unemployment problem and we've got a discussion about how we've apparently got to bump the retirement age up to 70 to save costs

This may be a really stupid opinion but I can't help seeing "we need people to retire only right before they die" in terms of capitalism's inherent institutional tendency to want to squeeze as much as possible out of as few employees as possible while paying them as little as possible, and wonder if this is actually the way we want to run our society

Like I wonder how much liesure time we could actually afford as a society with modern technology if the model was to try to maximize it in balance with material living standards and within bounds of practicality instead of letting capitalism set the tune with some restraints to keep it from going full dark satanic mills on us.

Is this hopelessly idealistic?

[timmy]

Would the lady herself like to exercise right of reply here?

that'd be cool

instead of bitching uselessly about people who can't respond.

[Dooey Jo]

Is this hopelessly idealistic?

well as far as hopeless idealism goes, i really have to give it to those advocating increased retirement age, lowered wages, fucktheworkers et cetera

cause yeah that'll give boosts in profitability, but maybe increased "growth" and consumption isn't exactly what the world needs right now. maybe it is in fact what's killing the planet

but despite this we have these idealists going "guys this is how it's gotta be in fact we need more of the same". in spite of looming ecological disasters and millions dying of starvation every year, they stay committed to this ideal society

man, that's gotta take some serious dedication
