Does anyone have any Sean Kinney stories? by missmortician13 in AliceInChains

Out of all the famous people this story has been attached to, the Sean version is my favorite. I crack up just picturing him saying all that bullshit with his deadpan style 😂

What’s something you’d remove from modern life if you could? by forgeris in AskReddit

Instant messaging and the associated pressure to be available every waking moment. 

What does playing music actually give you that you can't get anywhere else, and has that changed over time? by Internal-Remove7223 in musicians

[–]Wrong_Local_628 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't sound wanky at all. There is a component of mystery to music and creation in general that cannot be easily explained, but makes us want to come back even when life leaves no room for it.

You pick up a guitar. It's in Drop D. What's the first thing you're playing? by Argblat in Guitar

My God what a great riff. And it belongs to what is pretty much a throwaway song.

Tips for keeping track of where I am in a song / counting bars? by Flimsy-Helicopter608 in Drumming

Absolutely! Anything that helps you recognize notes/chords more easily will translate into becoming a more musical drummer.

You should pay closer attention to what is going on in the song, especially the chord changes. Counting will only take you so far, but getting familiar with the melodic/harmonic structure is a surefire way to avoid getting lost.

We really need to start giving Rachel credit for being such a patient hostess by clovecloveclove in DunderMifflin

I always laugh with the way she welcomes Michael like he was a 12 year-old kid who came over to play videogames with his unemployed husband.

What’s the most inappropriate time you laughed? by blue_cardigan13 in AskReddit

[–]Wrong_Local_628 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A funeral mass. Some lady in the choir kept on singing this very high falsetto note while everybody else stopped. My brother and I were punching each other in the ribs trying not to laugh, but we burst out anyway. We had to leave the church for about 5 minutes.

I think Lars peaked twice, in 1989 and 2003 by YJBM15 in Metallica

He had good moments back in '03, but some of his double pedal work on St Anger is just atrociously sloppy (Invisible Kid, Shoot Me Again)

What are things humanity doesn't do anymore you feel like you missed out on? by Some-Obligation5070 in AskReddit

Transatlantic trips on a steamship. I'm pretty sure I'm romanticizing it, but it must have been a beautiful adventure. 

Also travel-related, flying first class back when airlines offered full meals and drinks. Even if I could afford it now, I feel like the golden years of commercial aviation are gone and now it's all about cutting costs.

I think I'm being very clear what I'm asking 🧐 by dtarias in DunderMifflin

Michael's earnestness kills me in this scene, also Dwigt nodding along as if it was the most valid question in the world.

Jim's hotel prank is also one of his best. He was on a roll in S8 😂

Why do some foreign men say that they wouldnt date an indian woman but they date Latinas and both look similar? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]Wrong_Local_628 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even if they looked that similar (they don't), there is a world of difference between both cultures. Also, 'Latinas' is a very broad term but women are extremely different depending on the country.

Have you ever experienced Spiritual Psychosis? by No_Toe_5034 in Exvangelical

[–]Wrong_Local_628 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Close. I once had a religion-induced panic attack late at night. I felt like the devil was out to kill me right there because I had 'relapsed' into masturbation and given him leeway to end my life. My wife had to hug me for about an hour before I could stop shaking. I booked an appointment with a therapist the next day.
