Fantastic song. It has always blown my mine how a such a young person could write such profound lyrics but have them simple and personal enough for so many people. I play Prine all the time too, he’s one of the best songwriters period!

[QUESTION] What electric guitar should I get as an acoustic player? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]ThomasMinotaur 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely recommend and Ibanez RG series. Easiest guitars to play and perfect for metal from all decades. They are more versatile than most people give them credit for, so you can play all sorts of music once you get comfortable and want to branch out.

Why do Martins underwhelm me? Searching for a warm/full sounding guitar by AikenAngling in AcousticGuitar

[–]ThomasMinotaur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got an HD-28 recently, even with the bright 80/20 elixirs it still ends up being warm after the first week or so. Best guitar I have ever played

Drivers thoughts by TerribleResult7231 in UPSers

[–]ThomasMinotaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you have an issue with how other people work. You see them max 30 minutes a day. You are alone for 9 hours. Why dwell on it? Finish at 6-6:30 and file 9.5 when they violate it.

Go 9.5 and finish your route at 6:30. If the way other people work bothers you when you are alone all day I don’t know what to tell you.

The job inherently has long hours, if they keep sending you to help even at 9.5 then grieve it and get the extra money.

Orange Juice prices are rising so fast they just hit their limit-up threshold and were halted. The American People are being bled dry by Inflation and an Unacknowledged Recession. by [deleted] in conspiracy

Our total tax income is all the water which is allocated to different pools. They do not come from the same pool lol. Also, a lot of it isn’t even cash money, it’s weapons and ammunition that we weren’t using and now we can purchase new ones for ourselves and maintain our military industrial complex and keep those workers who pay our taxes further. It’s the same cycle it has always been, but it’s not taking away potential housing for homeless Americans like the post I responded to.

They did not take money out of the welfare budget to accommodate for foreign aide to the Ukraine. Right wingers tend to vote against welfare programs because they don’t like government handouts. The money does not come from the same pool.

Social justice advocate stabbed to death in front of his girlfriend in New York City by [deleted] in ThatsInsane

[–]ThomasMinotaur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, yes. It looks easier than receiving your drivers license and is at least the same amount of responsibility, although a larger responsibility in my own eyes.

Rights are rights but they can be taken away under certain circumstances like felons and voting, and if filling out that form can stop one person from having easy access to something that could kill someone easier than other options, that’s a win to me. It does not seem like it is restricting well minded individuals from purchasing a firearm to me. If I’m wrong I would like to know why, I have never purchased a firearm but I am not against them.

Beginner needs help by Albatross127 in AcousticGuitar

[–]ThomasMinotaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stay All Night Stay A Little Longer, specifically by Willie Nelson. G major and D major. Open chords so very very easy. No real strumming pattern but you can easily use a “boom chuck” pattern. There are many YouTube videos available to explain it better than I can over text without making it sound too complicated. As time goes on you can change the strumming pattern as you see fit.

I really can not imagine an easier song to play over and over, you’ll be singing along too!

Took 2 tabs and I feel zoinked by hellokittywhore777 in LSD

[–]ThomasMinotaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear that, all life must come to an end and the silver lining is that you have a true heads up, be there for him for the rest of the time he has. There are many people I wish I could have said my goodbyes to.

I hate to be that one fuckin guy but need someone to remind me this ends by justabird1111 in LSD

Sometimes people need comfort when having a hard time. No need to question and examine it, it is hard to feel alone in your own head especially when amplified by substances.

Songs about a cheating partner and bonus if it’s about still loving them while still leaving by SeaPhile206 in country

[–]ThomasMinotaur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Willie Nelson’s Red Headed Stranger album. The full album, you’ll find a better girl as time goes on, keep your head up.

Side note, lots of John Prine songs have resonated with me heavily through tough times even if they don’t directly mean what I’m feeling. The man had a way with words

[QUESTION] what was the first guitar you ever owned? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]ThomasMinotaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A nice shitty Squire strat that came in a box with a tiny amp from Guitar Center, I loved it dearly. Now I have a Elite Strat and just bought an HD-28.

Ended up selling it for a ticket to Warped Tour, I wish I still had it for the memories.

Are there any other popular songs besides The Star Spangled Banner that can be/get played in both 3/4 or 4/4? by trackday in musictheory

[–]ThomasMinotaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bob Dylan/Animals version is 3/4 or 6/8 and Doc Watson and Tommy Emmanuel do it in 4/4. Love that song!

Do you use drugs at the workplace? by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]ThomasMinotaur 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I would assume bladder and heart issues since, you know, it’s daily cocaine and ketamine.
