[QUOTE=FunkMetalBass;18949723]Damnit BV, I missed the hell out of that avatar.[/QUOTE]

To this very day, still have no idea where it's from...

[QUOTE=FunkMetalBass;18949883]Speaking of four-posters, can somebody explain to me the appeal of that style of bed? I really don't understand it.

It's a canopy bed. You drape a canopy over it to soften and colour the light, and to create a sense of being enclosed. Also, they just make a pretty big statement. You don't exactly put them in a 8'x10' room. :p They're a really old style of bed, mostly probably limited to the ruling class in medieval times.

People buy them if they're looking for a more rustic, old-fashioned look.

FunkMetalBass 09-19-2012 09:32 AM

I'm now going to get one, put the canopy over the sides, put it in my 8'x10' room, and then center the fan right over the bed to steal all of the cool air. :P I still think they look weird.

Hmmm. I'll have to see if google comes up with any results.

Astronaut 09-19-2012 11:21 AM

Good luck figuring out how to google that, paha. I'm curious, though.

BassVirtuoso 09-19-2012 03:14 PM

I gave up the google search after "joseph gordon levitt asian doppleganger purple time travel" failed

spirit 09-19-2012 06:18 PM

how the fuck have you people never seen four-poster beds?

Az_Holl 09-19-2012 07:02 PM

dont live in a castle

Astronaut 09-19-2012 09:58 PM

My brother's wife had one, was a pain to move from the apartment to a house.

I have seen them - my sister had one back in the day. But my question wasn't about what it was, but about it's appeal.

Speaking of furniture, today is Fuck Yeah New Furniture Day for me.

FunkMetalBass 09-21-2012 09:31 AM

^ I saw that. I would love to get new furniture, but the place I'm renting is fully furnished, so it would be a pointless endeavor at the moment.

fatbandit 09-21-2012 02:15 PM

MX bass forum. Now with 100% less MEW.

I have very little of my own furniture because I live in a furnished place. I'm too poor to get my own stuff anyway. But I'd like to because I can afford cheaper places then if I rent unfurnished. I do want a new bed though - the one in this room squeaks like a motherbitch if you so much as roll to the side a tiny bit, and the mattress is just wank. Plus who knows what's gone on on this mattress with previous tenants D:

Too bad the newest squarepusher album was like 90% disappointing :(

Here's something you don't see very often: me playing a normal bass with a normal amount of strings:

Holy sausage fest Batman! :chug:

fatbandit 09-27-2012 07:11 AM

are you playing through all those bass rigs at once? looks like at least 4 heads in that picture :D

BassVirtuoso 09-27-2012 01:21 PM

I forgot there wasn't a bass forum again and I kept logging in and out. I feel disenfranchised

FunkMetalBass 09-27-2012 08:50 PM

[quote=Convectuoso;18952468]Holy [B]bass[/B] fest Batman! :chug:[/quote]
Fixed that for you.

[quote=fatbandit;18952501]are you playing through all those bass rigs at once? looks like at least 4 heads in that picture :D[/quote]

I don't remember which rig I was playing through. I think I was playing through that Orange tube amp and the fEarful stack. Absolutely INSANE tone. Those fEarfuls are ****ing amazing, and that head was gnarly.

fatbandit 09-29-2012 12:20 PM

Sold my cab last week cuz I haven't been in a band for a year.

Today got asked to join a band.

FFS.

That's only ironic if you're marrying a meteorologist and he picked the date.

fatbandit 09-30-2012 06:00 PM

Why would I marry a dude?
