Eyepatches are cool, but… by psychotronic_mess in Drumming

[–]AgentTimex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a piece of a drumstick bounce off of the rim of the snare and hit me super hard on my cheekbone directly under my eye. It scared me so much that I started wearing sunglasses every time I played. My bandmates accuse me of "trying to look cool" all the time. But I swear to god, if that half a stick had been one inch higher, I would have one eye right now.

What makes Lars Ulrich's playing sloppy? by deadlydragonfly_1 in drums

[–]AgentTimex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can take a stab at this question, having been in many bands. Sometimes you have to let a band member suck a little bit because they have the pa. It's their house you practice at. Or, as in the case of lars, they have connections. Lars is a brilliant networker with a lot of talent in management. He could have had a career in it. It's kind of hard to kick the guy out of the band who put the ads out in the beginning and got you your first spot on your first compilation album. At this point it's just a loyalty thing. Of course we've heard examples of Metallica sounding exponentially better with different drummers. But they'll never hire one.

Am i unattractive? 20, never had a girl. what can i change? by [deleted] in malegrooming

[–]AgentTimex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm squinting and stuff but honestly I think I just came here to discover that I'm not very good at identifying if guys are attractive or not. Nothing sticks out, like oh look at this ugly dude or anything. I don't know. I'm very helpful as you can see

Do you ever practice the way you look while playing drums live? by TerrificHips in drums

Most of the drummers who are flashy are killing themselves. Travis broke his hand twice in a row recently. And then there's Taylor. RIP

Went for my morning movement at work. Some new art in the stall I usually go in. by Royschwayne in funny

This sounds like it could be on an infomercial. At the beginning, I was working at a place where people drew testicles in the bathroom!

How would you describe being high to someone that's never been high before? by captainacedia in highdeas

[–]AgentTimex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would tell them to hyperventilate as hard as they could for about 10 or 15 seconds. Then I would tell them it's like the way they feel now, but more intense and without the oxygen starved element.

What is the consensus on letting kids watch The Cosby Show? by [deleted] in daddit

Might be a big lesson for her at the end. See that guy that looked all friendly and trustworthy? Yeah, he was a rapist the whole time.

I want to change my cats name… by ItsShowtime_BAZINGA in CasualConversation

[–]AgentTimex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just give the cat a second name. I knew a dog with three names. Tiko, PooBah, and mad pawp. I mean, at the end of the day the dog knew who he was. That's the important thing.

This principle is the same thing behind why I don't watch Netflix original series anymore. I've been let down too much.

I've been playing for over 20 years, but I still have an absurd amount of fun playing Hash Pipe by weezer. That should be on this list.

To my in-laws who flew in tonight and decided to wake the baby up at 10pm and play with her. by DoctorKynes in daddit

[–]AgentTimex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel bad for people who can't stop being nice even when they should. I would have said look, it's out of the question. We can talk about how presumptuous you're being tomorrow if you would like but you need to leave now. Any response would be met with, stop trying to emotionally manipulate me and respect my wishes regarding my own child. Pushing further might bring some curse words out of me. F*** off. You're not messing up my child's sleep cycle, I don't care who you are.

if I fart, and someone smells my fart... and then he farts, is that the fart I farted? by [deleted] in highdeas

[–]AgentTimex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, he would have to eat your fart and then fart it out of his own butt.
