I think I could do it but I wouldn't claim it for certain. I'll give it a try when I get mine just out of curiosity.

[QUOTE=FunkMetalBass;17553211]Easier said than done. That is a tough stretch.[/QUOTE]

I just played that out. It's not a hard stretch at all, using your thumb to pluck the open E and using your index for the harmonics.

I am bored :(.

The ICC Champion's Trophy final is turning out to be a closer contest than expected though which will give me something to watch.

And without using your thumb?

I may just stick to the slap. I don't know that my thumb will sound aggressive enough otherwise.

Huge craving for hot chips with chicken salt right here.

Not sure what chicken salt is, but I definitely just had a roasted chicken sub smothered in Franks red hot sauce. Best buffalo sauce ever.

I have to write an obituary and memorial plaque for work. Weird.

That is a bit weird.

Can't imagine that'll be too hard, though, eh?

Nope. Should be done in about 10-20 minutes.

BenJammin 10-05-2009 12:40 PM

Not like the person's going anywhere, anyway.

Chicken salt is amazing.

I'm not sure that it tastes like chicken, but it's a million times more awesome than just salt on your chips. I think outside of Straya it's called seasoning salt or something. I have my chips avalanched with it.

Efrim 10-05-2009 12:55 PM

[QUOTE=BenJammin;17553312]Not like the person's going anywhere, anyway.[/QUOTE]

Lol.

Christ, this is strange. I don't actually know her, but I need this to be 1) Really sensitive and 2) Really, really short.

Nearly done now...

gaslight 10-05-2009 12:59 PM

Shouldn't they get someone who knows her to write it?

Efrim 10-05-2009 01:04 PM

[QUOTE=gaslight;17553336]Shouldn't they get someone who knows her to write it?[/QUOTE]

They all deferred to me...Apparently I have a reputation for tasteful writing?
I don't personally know her, but her family is somehow connected to my job and other people I work with.

Efrim 10-05-2009 01:10 PM

Oh great, her favourite quote was from my favourite anti-semite and warmongerer: St. Augustine.

fatbandit 10-05-2009 01:20 PM

[quote=FunkMetalBass;17553212]I thought I heard some slapping in some of their stuff, but I wasn't sure.[/quote]
Listen to:

Scent of the Obscene
Pull My Finger
Summer Rain

there's probably more, but they're the slappiest Sikth tracks.

Summer Rain blows my f**king mind. I can't tell what that noise is in the first 10 sec or so. It's like a combination of a muted pop, a snare hit, and something else.

fatbandit 10-05-2009 02:14 PM

slap guitar harmonics

I'm three martinis deep. I don't know how it happened, but it sure made my memorial plaque go smooth.
Martinis make work so efficient, I can't explain it.

BenJammin 10-05-2009 04:17 PM

What kind of martini?

Efrim 10-05-2009 04:25 PM

[QUOTE=BenJammin;17553689]What kind of martini?[/QUOTE]

Two classics, one perfect, and I just finished up a batch of syrup for a pepper martini.
I also secured some Campari to make myself a Negroni before dinner.

Apparently my film crew will be arriving at six am tomorrow, and the roof is through my room, so I guess I have an early morning on my hands.

fatbandit 10-05-2009 04:33 PM

Just stumbled across this Martin Dosh guy. If you like looped music, you should love him.

Ugh. Enjoy that. You should just stay ripped and not go to bed.

I told the producer: "I might be awake, who knows. Just go right on through, I'll leave the door unlocked."

Seems like a good plan.

I ought to work at drinking tonight, should help to alleviate any mid-term related worries I have.

Absolutely.

BenJammin 10-05-2009 05:00 PM

I ordered an album after listening to a couple more of his tracks.

funkyhoney 10-05-2009 06:50 PM

I got two albums the other day but I doubt many people will like them.

funkyhoney 10-05-2009 06:51 PM

[QUOTE=FunkMetalBass;17553215]That's your ex?

Yes and yes and yes.

Are you arguing that her face is cute, or are you agreeing with me that it's maybe a 7/10 at best.

Being 20 is equally as fun.

...not really. :upset:

Haha, when is your birthday?

I turned 21 yesterday, and it rules not having to find someone to buy you alcohol.

Feb. 13.

**sigh**

I'm gonna throw a big-*** party that night and get sh*t-faced off of some AGWA de Bolivia.


Speaking of AGWA, Funky, do you sell it at your liquor store? What color is the bottle? If Black, what's the alcohol percentage on it?

I think Europe and other non-U.S. countries put more coca leaf in it, and I'd love to try to import some for my party.

I was agreeing. With the entire statement.

And just smashed that chick I was crapping on about the other day, I needed that.
