what height do you look down from?

[datasuspect]

what makes you so fucking special?

me, i'm a mustard snob. people who use plochman's deserve all the snickers and jabs they can get.

[AllegroRondo]

1. Im a beer snob

get that BudMillerCoors crap away from me. Why drink piss water when theres so much great beer out there to try?

[_testify_]

2. I am a grated cheese snob.

If you're not using Locatelli romano, you might as well be eating toe cheese.

[AllegroRondo]

3. does that label say "made from sheep"???

thats some pretty hardcore cheese.

[_testify_]

5. Yup.

Sheep's milk, anyway! :)

[datasuspect]

4. i purchase emery boards manufactured by the indigenous populations in rural croatia

such craftsmanship, such fine grit.

[_testify_]

6. That's what I use to grate the aforementioned cheese.

It's good to meet someone with TASTE around here.

[datasuspect]

7. indeed, kind sir, indeed

well stated.

shall we bask together in our splendiforousness whilst declaiming the banality of the savages we have the misfortune of sharing our precious air with?

[_testify_]

8. Yes. Meet me at Applebees.

[Bake]

9. I'm a guitar snob

If it doesn't say C.F. Martin & Co. on the headstock, don't bother getting it out of the case.

Bake

[ProfessorGAC]

10. Snob!

Well, i've got two of them, so really we're in the same boat. I just wanted to call you a name! Happy holidays, Bake!
GAC

[Bake]

15. I'm working on my second one, but it may take a while ...

... to convince Mrs. Bake that it wouldn't be a frivolous expenditure!

Mine is an HD-28 LSV with the large soundhole. It's a cannon! My NEXT one is going to be a 000 ...

If it doesn't come from Nazareth, PA, it ain't squat!

Bake

[ProfessorGAC]

21. That's The Similar Model

I've got the D-28 CME. (Cutaway.Mahogany.Electronic) It's got the built-in Fishman, and has Mahog sides and back.

My 12 string is the D-18T. (I think the T stands for Twelve). It's really simple looking. Very little ornamentation. The little pamphlet that comes with it specifically states that it is braced to be tuned to E like a regular 6 string, for the life of the guitar. I thought that was pretty cool.

Now, i'm pretty much done. Mrs. GAC would start to look askance at getting any more. 14 is enough. (Plus the mandolin and bass.) 15 might try her patience.
GAC

[Bake]

22. But does your mando say "The Gibson" on the headstock?

If it ain't a Loar, don't bother! (How's that for snobbery?)

:rofl:

Happy holidays, and good pickin' in the New Year!

Bake

[ProfessorGAC]

24. Nah! It's An Ovation Mando

So, i don't pass the snobbery test. Quite honestly, i bought the mando for two reasons:

1) I thought it would be fun to have one.
2) There is a 14 inch wide area next to the door of my rec room and a small instrument was all that would fit there. So, i bought it to hang next to the door. (Yeah i know, that's kind of republican.)

I will go home, stand in front of it, and castigate myself for having an inferior italian peasant instrument. And, i stand in contrition to you, Bake, for having such poor taste!

Same to you and your's for the holiday!
GAC

[eyepaddle]

27. Not to be too contrary...but

you mispelled "Taylor."

:P

[Bake]

30. Very funny, like, haha ... Taylor totally blows.

Any Martin snob will tell you that!

:rofl:

Bake

[DS1]

11. That should be "From which height do you look down"

:D

[ProfessorGAC]

13. Quite Succinct!

Good one!
The Professor

[Oeditpus Rex]

19. Ahem

"From what height."

:P

[DS1]

20. I thought someone would catch that

and I didn't say I looked down from a great height.


But I'm still looking down. :D

[stuntcat]

23. TY!!

Now I can answer. I look down from the Not Breeding height- not adding a consumer or giving any fresh innocent person the next 90 years.

[ProfessorGAC]

28. Wow! That's Great

Compound snobbery! This thread turned out to be big fun.
The Professor

[Heidi]

12. I don't look down. I look askance at

bullies, though.

[datasuspect]

16. they really aren't bullies, just garden variety jerkoffs with inferiority complexes

"oh, i am so special!!!"

eating at neighborhood bistros that play california brunch jazz is the pinnacle of cultural experience for these self-absorbed asswipes.

[Heidi]

17. When they hurt others just because they _can_, they're bullies.

Their inferiority complexes are _their_ problem; they don't need to turn their pychoses on the vulnerable. :grr:

[Redstone]

14. Probably about six-feet-two, since I'm six-feet-four tall.

Redstone

[ProfessorGAC]

26. Actually, Your Eyes In In The Center Of Your Head

So, it's probably 6 feet and a half-inch.
The Professor

[Joe Fields]

18. I'm not special. I shop at Wal Mart.

[ProfessorGAC]

25. Oh Man! Are You In For It!

Keep your head down, Joe.

The Professor

[Joe Fields]

29. I keep moving, bobbing, weaving, serpentining, so I make a hard target.

[Zavulon]

31. Beer snob here.

Samuel Adams is the cheapest stuff I'll drink, and only when better stuff isn't available.

[DarkTirade]

32. I look down from about 5'10 inches off the ground.

Although I guess if you're going by eye level it would be a little lower... :P
