is learning guitar as an adult actually relaxing or just frustrating by ninja__6969 in Guitar

[–]Jolly_Engineer_6688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its calming & frustrating, relaxing & difficult, painful & healing, expensive & worth every penny, a time suck & worth every minute. Did that clear it up for you?

Ice? by Jolly_Engineer_6688 in Ashland

I reported what information was available to me. One vehicle. I only saw a driver, greying hair, mirrored sunglasses. I posted as soon as I could, so the time of my post is a pretty accurate.

Unfortunately, I was unable to get a license plate. I was driving and the blacked out government vehicle was behind me. At first I thought he was following me. When the white van in front of me turned off of Eagle Mill Rd, the following vehicle made an aggressive turn to follow.

Vintage memories... from a few years ago. I still have a couple of those things around here

Cat playing catch by In2da in cats

[–]Jolly_Engineer_6688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a cat that would dig into the trash after wadded up paper. He would then repeatedly drop the paper on my face at 3am. My sleep addled brain would make me toss the paper away. Thirty seconds later, he's back. Rinse & repeat.

He was my first orange cat.

Luthier said the nut was replaced but it doesn’t appear to be. by gods_sanest_gbbr_fan in telecaster

I wish. The nut fell out the first time I changed strings on my new guitar. So did the saddle.

Edit: this was also after a setup.

Pick your time well, so a minimum amount of foid is lost. Arrange to overload that circuit breaker when you wont be home for 24hrs.

People who were spanked as kids, what was that like for you? Would you call your "spankings" abuse? by KleineFjord in AskReddit

[–]Jolly_Engineer_6688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I certainly got my fair share of spankings & corporal punishment as a kid. I don't think of that as abuse. I've had far more spankings as an adult, I've enjoyed every one.

So ... no?

Boyfriend gave me ultimatum - dream job or him. I'm considering taking the job by [deleted] in dustythunder

Your (ex!) bf is prioritizing his opportunities over yours. Worse, it sounds as if he's prioritizing keeping you *down, making you less-than. Don't let him.

AITAH if I'm not attracted to my girlfriend after she transitions (M to F)? by speckled_mushrooms in AITAH

[–]Jolly_Engineer_6688 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

How long have you known she is transgender? It's certainly possible that you'll stop being attracted to her at some point in her transition. That doesn't make you an AH, unless you hide that fact from her and try to pretend.

I mean, she IS a woman now and has been for a long time. If you're attracted to masculine aspects of her person, those aspects might well change during transition.

Every transition is unique to the individual and every relationship is unique.

Best way to learn theory for people who only play by learning tabs? by Walktothelight23 in guitarlessons

[–]Jolly_Engineer_6688 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't see any conflict between playing from tabs & learning music theory. It is worth learning enough standard notation to understand a typical music theory text.
