DTF Chat Thread v. Kinginese

[King Postwhore]

No, I just didn't read it all.  I shouldn't jump on when I'm working and can't concentrate. It's my fault.

[Hyperplex]

No worries. I wasn't trying to be an asshole about it.

[JayOctavarium]

Good Morning Peeps!

[hefdaddy42]

WTF is "awes5"

[JayOctavarium]

The world may never know

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

WTF is "awes5"

King fat-fingering the word "awesome":

DORK BREAK!!

Morning folks.

Is that a break with the dorks, or a break from the dorks? Because if it's the latter you're after, you're shit out of luck.

.This is so Monty Python.

John, that's awes5.

[hefdaddy42]

Oh wow

[JayOctavarium]

how does that...

nevermind.

its Joe

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

It's glorious.

[JayOctavarium]

There's a bible study group that meets at my work on Fridays. Apparently I am being included into their prayer session.

They are all really sweet older women who'd shit themselves if they heard what I've been listening to in the office all day

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

I think I need to start up a Sammy Hagar tribute band.  I know a bass player who plays in a VH Tribute in the area and he actually kinda looks like Michael Anthony.

Except good luck finding someone who can sing like Sammy Hagar.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

My voice may not be as scratchy as his, but I'd be tempted to give it a shot.

[Kotowboy]

We've got all the hope you want
God will light the way

We will bring you to your sha na na na na na na knees

[Prog Snob]

Really? I'm having trouble finding good songs. Even though I grew up in the 80s, I find it to be the worst decade for music.

Dude, the 80's was awes5 for music, I have no clue what you're talking about.  Now I will agree, of the choices in those polls, they are mostly as far from my 80's tastes as it gets, but I found some standouts.

I suppose the choices in the polls were mostly garbage, but you're right that there was plenty of obscure music that was brilliant.

at the awes5

I used to work with a guy who was young but very serious about his "sincerely held religious beliefs"; so much so that every Monday he had to reassert the sermon he heard in church the previous day. One day, while I was quietly listening to some music, Sixpounder by Children of Bodom came on (for those unfamiliar, the end of the chorus goes "six-six-sixpounder"). He took me aside and calmly asked me to never play that song again because he didn't want Satan being summoned into the office. At first I laughed because I thought he was making a joke, but then his eyes got big and he started sweating and he quietly said he was dead serious, he can't go home after being in the presence of the devil.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

You should play him I Am Satan, by Paul Gilbert.  Totally humorous song about a guy who's worried what his girl will do when she finds out he's actually Satan.  Great tune.

I admire his dedication (I mean, kind of), but it is misguided.  The number of the beast is not just three sixes in a row "6-6-6" but rather it is 666, i.e. six hundred sixty six (or actually, in some variant manuscripts, 616, six hundred sixteen).

Nothing wrong with three sixes in a row.

[JayOctavarium]

Sounds like my bowling game last night

You'd crush it.

 And did Prog Snob say the 80's did not have awesome music?

[King Postwhore]

WTF is "awes5"

Don't cast stones Hef.  Maybe you should look in the "Truly epic guitar solo" thread.

[Sir GuitarCozmo]

He said he saw tab of it.  Maybe I missed something?

[TAC]

Were you asleep during the 90's? Jail?

[Prog Snob]

Just popular music alone, the 90s had better songs.  As far as obscure bands, the 90s was when prog and power metal really made a breakthrough.

[King Postwhore]

...a tab?

Wow dude, there would be no scenario where I'm taking the 90's over the 80's. It's cool though.

Different strokes...

Short for guitar tablature.

[King Postwhore]

I know that.  I was suggesting an "a" before tab.

[hefdaddy42]

Tab short for tablature.

I saw tablature of the solo.

No "a" required.

[King Postwhore]

It just sounded wrong to me. Again I know what a tablature is. I do play guitar. 

I really just wanted to type goddammit.

[hefdaddy42]

No worries.

[King Postwhore]

So the new temp that we've had for 3 week called out for the second Friday night.   I'm done with him. Puts us in a pinch now.

I have no idea how that feels.
