Rosewood is a bastard.
Disagree. Rosewood is lovely... I've just taken the strings off my guitar and put some lemon oil on it, and the fretboard is looking lovely.
Considerably better than maple, plus it sounds warmer and less bright.
HOHOHOHO Fuck off, and come back when you've found the context. Yes, Understandably I would assume you know it's a name, and are making light of it- But still. Go find out the events before that post, and then see if it's worth making fun of the situation.
On that note: What's up, Vector?
Eh, it's all right. I was feeling really upset about not having any friends to hang out in real life but him, especially because I was still kind of angry and hurt--but then I realized that he's a child who really needs to grow up, and I don't want to date him right now, anyway :I We may both be pretty terrible relationship material, but I'm not the one who consistently treats people badly in little sniperish ways.
So in a year or two, I'll probably be ahead on him at the "not failing at life" scale, and I can choose whether or not I want to date him or someone else. This stupid and inequitable position will not last. In fact, it should go down in flames over the next while, so there's nothing left to fear or be bothered by.
RAWR VECTOR RIDES AGAIN!!
In my defense, I wasn't making fun... There was no intent to cause her pain or make her situation seem petty or superficial
Sorry.
EDIT: And sorry, I didn't realise it was the name of a person, I thought she actually was refering to a kind of wood. Clearly, I don't belong here.
It wasn't actually a joke I actually thought she was talking about woodworking; I didn't know it was a person.
Don't worry, doodabuddy... I won't eat you. Well, nowadays, anyway. I'm feeling a lot better about the whole situation.
As Rumi wrote,
My worst habit is I get so tired of winter
I become a torture to those I'm with.
If you're not here, nothing grows.
I lack clarity. My words
tangle and knot up.
How to cure bad water? Send it back to the river.
How to cure bad habits? Send me back to you.
When water gets caught in habitual whirlpools,
dig a way out through the bottom
to the ocean. There is a secret medicine
given only to those who hurt so hard
they can't hope.
The hopers would feel slighted if they knew.
Look as long as you can at the friend you love,
no matter whether that friend is moving away from you
or coming back to you.
... Mostly, I'm referring to the end tercet, though the entire poem is so good I felt I should post the whole thing.
Let's wait for Vector to get angry or not angry, and if she does get angry the anger is hers alone.
Dude, I was going to make a joke about how Black Walnut is a real asshole and makes your nostrils purple. Not a very funny joke, but a joke anyway.
Made an Appalachian Dulcimer when I was 13 or so. Sucker stained my hands bright purple for days. Doesn't sound very good, though... and I named it "Joyeux" after Lancelot's sword. No wonder all the other kids thought I was a total dork.
I happen to think young-me was pretty darned cool, though. Hrmph.
