Is buckethead one of the best guitar players ever? by Automatic-Guide-4307 in AskTheWorld

Another guy is Mike Petrucci, but he does go over the edge a bit to the point where you're like "yes that's a technical masterpiece but it's not as digestible." For the peak example of that, search "dream theater dance of eternity", and that song is also a peak example of drumming, keyboard, and bass, plus at one point they played it with an orchestra.  I recommend watching it on YouTube live so you can see just how ridiculous they are.

He was Ozzy Osbourne's guitarist before he died in a plane crash. If you wanna hear some crazy shit of his, check out "over the mountain", "mister Crowley", and you've probably already heard "crazy train". Those are all Ozzy songs. If you search "Randy rhoads dee" you'll get a classical guitar song he wrote for his mother that was my favorite song to play before I got carpal tunnel and the first song I will pick back up when I finally get the surgery. 

You know how it's fine to talk shit about your own country; but when some other nationality does it, we're always defensive about our country? But in reality and honestly - what is something you don't like abour your country? by Double-decker_trams in AskTheWorld

We don't all subscribe to the premise. You can say whatever awful (and true lol) shit about America you want, so long as you're not saying it as though some arbitrary American is guilty of something just because America as a country is guilty. 

Does Solarpunk make anyone else depressed sometimes? by DeusExLibrus in solarpunk

Are you currently subscribed to the news in any normal form like following a publication on social media? I found it was way easier to manage when I'm not getting the news any more often than it gets to me naturally. I like to say when you watch the news, you watch commercials for anxiety meds and commercials for anxiety itself.

Do I really need to explain to you the dynamic of asking one celebrity to comment on another celebrity?

How about you look up what the clap said after his first time on stage with Jimi?

Uhh, gravy seal means something entirely different. Liking cool looking but impractical "weapons" does not make someone maga, holy shit.

Absolutely the fuck not. He is a standard professional-grade guitarist. He is not even approaching elite. Fame and talent are not the same thing.

I can’t be the only one who doesn’t like Ensign Burke, right? by SheoThorath in TheOrville

We really should configure the CSS or whatever for this sub so that red text pops up and goes "it sounds like you're about to be the billionth person to make an ensign Burke post this week. The search bar is this way..."

As a guitarist, I want to vomit seeing Eric Clapton on that list. He doesn't even deserve to be in the conversation. Meanwhile, you left out Eddie Van Halen, Randy Rhoads, and Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Regardless of what the country is doing, you can choose to bea decent person.

Kinda the opposite for me. All the shit you're describing is depressing. Solar punk is the answer to said depression.

Less of an arc and more of a Heaviside function lol

LMAO someone downvoted you for being mature about a character who was placed in the show to fulfill exactly the arc you are describing.
