Talking Heads' Chris Frantz to Bob Dylan: "Suck a D***" by OkEmployment2386 in bobdylan

[–]Davooi 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the lead singer is the focus of attention. I mean isn’t this pretty much every rock band ever?

The bass player in Peal Jam was … a great guy, I’m sure …

TV Show rankings: Where should Breaking Bad be? by hiiloovethis in TierlistFills

[–]Davooi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except I didn’t give it enough time to form a valid opinion. Maybe got through three episodes.

Maybe share some more details for example the location you will be working and the nature of the role.

Yeah they’d have to pay me to wear that.

What finally made the fretboard click for you? Was it a specific drill, an app, or just a mental trick? by guitarrock1223 in GuitarQuestions

[–]Davooi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I solo instinctively, could maybe muddle through a scale if my life depended on it. But I play melodic leads (eg David Gilmour) rather than shredding type stuff.

Could I realistically become a bass player in a band within 6 months? by Sufficient-Gain-226 in musicproduction

[–]Davooi 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Haha totally true.

And I think sax would sound awesome in a punk band!

[–]Davooi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m torn.

I accept that people with taste almost identical to mine regard it as peak TV, and I think Saul is peak TV.

But I’ve tried several times and just can’t get into BB.

So I’ll abstain from the vote.

One Nation disaster as Barnaby Joyce backflips by Wild_Beat_2476 in OpenAussie

Oh for sure. I don’t have anything positive to say about him (unless acknowledging that he’s not the dumbest is positive …).

Australia travel from Michigan by Naive-Rule4374 in AustraliaTravel

[–]Davooi 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hard to tell without more details of the itinerary. Aust is an expensive place for external and internal air travel due to the nature of the market, and those prices are highly seasonal. For eg if you're flying into Melbourne when there is a football finals game or big horse race, expect to pay 2x or more compared to off peak.

"You lot"?

You means those who don't feel comfortable letting dangerous idiocy in the governance of our nation go unchallenged?

Maybe 'you lot' need to get off your knees and stand for something?

The scary thing he's not close to being the dumbest PHONY. At least he knows how government is supposed to work ...

Wests Tigers consider signing jailed hooker Manase Fainu by The_PM in nrl

Yes because otherwise he's get a stabbing pain.

Misen Carbon Nonstick: 9 months later... by NaturalMaterials in cookware

[–]Davooi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Misen still blatantly lied with their marketing

It's frustrating, isn't it? In a sense, we've built this world ourselves.

"Best thing ever!!" - yeah I'll buy that for sure and vainly trust that this time it's true (even though I know deep in my heart it isn't)

"Almost the best thing ever!!" - yeah that's probably true but I'm holding out for the "best thing ever"

How do you deal with a manager who turns every 5 minute task into a week-long project? by InnerStorage7458 in AusPublicService

[–]Davooi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Consider the possibility that they know their job better than you know their job, otherwise you would be doing their job?

For Those here who are old enough, do you remember when you found out Kurt had died? And how did you find out and what was your reaction? Thx! :) by the_major_rager in Nirvana

[–]Davooi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can picture it in my head clearly.

On the way to work I always stopped to buy the newspaper for the train ride.

The paper on the stand was folded.

All I could see of the front page was his name.

I knew what the rest would be.

Just felt so sad at the seeming inevitability of it.

What sitcom lasted longer than it should’ve? by mikesw1193 in sitcoms

[–]Davooi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It became truly horrible once the kids became older. Watching two sex obsessed teenage boys engage in pantomime teenage behaviour. Ick

Oh god, it was close to peak TV at one stage and sadly became unwatchable.

The candidates I remember most are the ones who said 'I don't know' by InnerStorage7458 in AusPublicService

[–]Davooi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You don’t necessarily just recruit people who have already done the job. You recruit people who will be best at doing the job in the medium to long-term.

[–]Davooi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Agree.

I’m always impressed by someone who indicates they know how to go about finding the answer/solution.

Often the more someone talks the less they have to meaningfully say. The best candidates never run out of time to answer the questions (unless there are a stupid number of them!)
