superconfessional

[operationjake]

oh I've listened to all their albums (reasonably like the ones a sonic youth fan should have), i just happened to be listening to Rather Ripped and wanted to state it.

oops. sorry about that, sir.

um. somewhat on topic?... thurston's latest solo was a huge disappointment, with only a few songs worth listening to multiple times.

and yeah. the helen lundeberg/eyeliner vinyl single was excellent. nerding out here...

[keagan]

I jammed with a kid today who looked like thurston. I told him and he said he hadn't ever heard of him.

He played a gibson es and a cybertwin??????>

[dismalfuture]

I had that setup before, but with an ES135 and a Twin Reverb. it was weird.

[operationjake]

bleh. i don't like cybertwins...

twin reverb reissue? or was it one of those oldies?

[dismalfuture]

reissue from the '90s mang, DS heat

[dismalfuture]

I had eventually wanted to mix the Fender with some sort of marshall half, and get something solidbody, but that never panned out. Probably for the better anyway.

[operationjake]

ah, so before the reissues started becoming "meh"? that's nice. still have it?

i like them old blackface/earllly silverface fenders. i used to have a very beautiful 68 bassman but had to sell it. it was more of a project anyways, and i didn't have time to replace the transformer, electrolytic caps, etc. etc. fuck. 68' was the last year silverface fenders weren't shit, in my opinion. still though, a nice silverface twin is great.

i wish i could get back into guitar playing but i dunno. my sg is just sitting in a case.

[dismalfuture]

yeah, it was probably made in 1990-1993 or so, so the end of that era. I also had a really nice Japanese '57 Strat with the sweetest neck, but I traded that off long ago, sometime in high school.

[operationjake]

fuck. i like those CIJ/MIJ strats just about as much as the standard americans. i don't like how fender uses mexico for their cheapies. "it's only a few hundred miles from their american shop" people say. yeah well, bullshit. it's also the difference between $8.00 minimum wage and mere pesos a day.

heh.

[larssss]

that fucking bitch. you never even left the house did you?

[poly800rock]

that fucking bitch. you never even left the house did you?

speaking which, my 69 twin just shit out on me last weekend in the middle of a gig. uggh. won't even power up anymore. anyone?

[poly800rock]

WHACHU KNOW BOUT SYOUFS?

shit man, I've seen them three times now and they have not failed to be fucking awesome.

you obviously missed the sonic youth of the 90's then

[dismalfuture]

pregnancy and celebrity clothes designing does that to a woman.

[lawless]

fuck fuck FUCK.

I just realized that Parsons doesn't accept students for the fashion design department for the spring. So that means either i get accepted into FIT or i have to wait another year to get accepted into a school to move to NYC. So now all of my eggs are in a basket and I'm the kinda guy that needs a high probability or a guarantee to loosen up.

yes, i know this be on some tfs complaint level shit

[RFKorp]

confessional: i am a very, very large fan of sonic youth. i've got (almost) all of their albums and some ~25 live recordings of sets.

confession: even though I'm deep into experimental music and noise and all that, I've never actually even listened to more than a couple minutes of Sonic Youth (sure I've seen Thurston and Lee and even Jim O'Rourke play thought none ever together). Maybe the only complete song I've heard was the one Richard Kern made that music video for. But I always just tell people that I'm not so into the band although I've actually never bothered to give them a fair chance....

[skistar]

I called in and had capital one ship me a new card after I destroyed and paid it off about a year ago. At first, I was intending to use it purely for the purpose of getting new breaks put on my car (the shits been metal on metal for months) but now a pair of Sammy s710's and every Margiela item I see looks extremely tempting...

must. have. self. control.

[kiya]

I had no idea the Margiela brand was owned by Diesel until right now.

[Charlie Delta]

Only the 6 line, the rest should still be owned by themselves/investors/japanese...

Also, the Diesel Group obv...

[dunkin deeznuts]

I just paid off $25k in credit card bills that i've had for over the past year.....

feels good...but now i'm kinda brokeszzzz

[kunk75]

just paid the remainder of my 07 taxes-$17k. $8k in credit cards to go. looks like we even on the broke front.

[dunkin deeznuts]

werd..i think my broke azz may be going for $20 happy hour...all the bottled beers you can drink and some kind of crappy fried buffet table.........let me know if you around.......

[kunk75]

can do tomorrow if that's when you meant. $20 sounds good. i can swing that. can i borrow $20?

[whitney]

I cannot stop eating fruit loops

already ate four bowls x.x

at least calories wise ita 110 cal/10 in fat

ugh

and I have a lunch with the boss in thirty minutes (review time)

I really am not that hungry

I just want more fruit loops :|

[kunk75]

i lost 30lbs in high school eating just 2 bowls of fruity pebbles a day for 3 months.

[midnight]

Just fruity pebbles? Without milk? Isnt that like 300 calories a day?

[whitney]

the problem is I cannot stop at 2

:/

I make myself feel better by telling myself at least there's less sugar in a bowl of cereal then a candy bar and more nutrition too

[kunk75]

with milk, so prolly 550-600 calories total.

Just fruity pebbles? Without milk? Isnt that like 300 calories a day?

[midnight]

This shit reminds of the other day when I went to pinkberry, but i didn't want the yogurt, so i just got a cup filled to the top with those little mochi balls. So good. That day i think i consumed the mochi, 3 things of bubble tea, and a frappucino. Just wasn't in the mood for food. I do this routine too often now.

[Leonard Leroy]

*cries* well i'm a homothug who measures his servings so honey nut cheerios aren't a source of obesity

[Guest Phrost]

for whitney and all you carlorie counters, i sympathize. this is superconfessional after all, so please unburden your sins.
