This is ridiculous - for the first time in my life, I'm actually actively trying to get Internet Explorer, and none of the links seem to work.
guitar, piano, trumpet, accordion, bodhran, tho the latter two are the only ones I would feel comfortable playing in public.
And as for the sax being the worst instrument of all time, I have two words: John Coltrane.
This is more of a testament to Coltrane's skill and talent, as he was able to manipulate the extreme douche-baggery of the instrument into something non-douche-baggy.Quote:

Well, for all intents and purposes, Stan Getz was a grade-a supreme double douchebag deluxe, yet the smoky tone he got out of the sax never fails to give me the chills.Quote:

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.Quote:

Um no... the player instills the instrument with "douche-baggery." I'm pretty sure any instrument can be the worst instrument. It all depends on the player. Guitar, piano, "electronic programming, composition and producing" can also be teeming with douche.Quote:

If someone told me that guy was a douche, I'd believe it.
But is it a matter of being a douche generally, or looking like a douche whilst playing the instrument? These are the questions.Quote:

Saxophones are awesome. One of my favorites.
I was All State Jazz in high school on the saxophone. I'mma kill you, Davis.
I'm not really trying to defend this girl, but I definitely don't understand why the media has suddenly decided to attack her. The Olsen twins have been making millions off songs just like this (actually, worse) for years. I had a little sister growing up, this is nothing new. It's definitely not targeted toward a demographic any adult should be criticizing. The coverage on this topic just seems a little too easy for me. Almost a bit unsettling. At least from that live performance the girl has marginal talent which is more than you can say for the Olsen twins.Quote:

It went for a full minute once, twice, and then a third time. By the third time, I got out of my bed (was watching a movie), and turned it off, not really paying attention to the specific button I pushed...I figured they would want to sleep rather than be woken up by the alarm, and it was 8am on a Saturday...and he frequently has alarms go off without reason (the most annoying one was the one at 315 am in the morning he forgot to turn off). Then, about 20 minutes ago (11 am), he says, "did someone turn off my alarm?" and it turns out he needed to be up to turn in an assignment. Apparently there are assignments due Saturday morning. So then he said not to touch his stuff, which I obviously won't again (and that was the one time I had), and I apologized, but I still feel horribly. When I've made a mistake/error with someone, I tend to avoid them, but obviously I can't do that here. Anyhow, I feel really bad, and I know that didn't come through in my apology, because it never does with me.
So, should I be feeling this horrible? Was I being that unreasonable? Gah.
