Zephyr_Nova Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 My experience around stoned people listening to music, is that they think everything sounds amazing without exception. I know I can't trust that. Also it makes a lot of musicians play everything slower (and slower and slooower...). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delet... Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 bought washing detergent for a top-loader. have front-loader. genious. anyone know if top-loader detergent will fuck up a front-loader or something? tempted to use it anyway. why is there even a difference? there ought to just be one standard: Top loader detergent in a front loader machine creates more foam because the front loader uses less water which can be trying from a foamy mess in the laundry perspective, so you need to bare that in mind when using it and so use less. I would recommend in future buying the correct stuff though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll often be the only sober one present, and believe me it's hard trying to steer the ship when everyone else is distracted by seagulls, or whatever better fits this analogy. The day after I'll show them what we accomplished and they'll be like "jesus, why did we do that weird thing with our voices" and I'll have to explain that I tried to dissuade them but they were convinced it was the best thing ever at the time. So yeah, weed just seems to make a lot of people think everything sounds amazing regardless of how goofy or banal it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yeah, weed just seems to make a lot of people think everything sounds amazing regardless of how goofy or banal it is. Yeah, I guess. Maybe it doesn't apply to everyone though. Most of the stuff i've ever made that I was proud of was in the middle of a deep stone. I have to give mushrooms credit though.. jamming with people deep into a trip gets crazy. Had some seriously special moments with people while playing music on mushrooms.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr_Nova Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 It does give people ideas they wouldn't necessarily have otherwise, so the occasional happy accident will come out of it. The challenge is separating the wheat from the chaff as the saying goes. If you get someone who consistently has good ideas, you're bound to get some good results coming out of it. But I think that's a pretty rare thing. Most people have to work at it, and it's hard to work at something while stoned (or so it seems from my outsider perspective). It helps with focusing on repetitive tasks though, so if the goal is to learn a part it's good for rehearsing.... remembering it later is of course another matter, but for muscle memory this is less of an issue.

eugene Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 fucking plagiarising pieces of shit i'm so sick of this job. i spend hours writing comments, critiques and praising some parts only to realize that like 20% of the papers i reviewed are ripped from various blogs and articles on the internet. i'll destroy their lives.

delet... Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Do EEt. Otherwise they won't deserve the bludge job that they end up with because they managed to pass their degree with better marks then those around them by cheating on their papers and getting away with it because the guy marking them was too lazy to check for fraud. Just imagine if these types got through to the position of marking, they'd be too lazy care whether there was plagiarising the hap, and the department would be in a race to a stupid, lazy and redundant bottom. ganbatte eugene.

Zephyr_Nova Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 At 4am last night I thought I had locked myself out of a friend's studio (I wanted to take advantage of his Neve preamps). I figured there was some mechanism on the inside I had to activate otherwise it autolocked, and that's why I couldn't get back in. Turns out I'm just a dumbass who doesn't know how to use keys properly. He's annoyed that I didn't phone him, since it left his studio less secure than it would have otherwise been. But I thought he'd be pissed if I did, because it was 4am. No matter how you slice it I'm an idiot, and one who didn't get half as much accomplished as he'd hoped due to said idiocy.

Goiter Sanchez Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I went to a Sushi Boat restaurant last night: the kind where the trays spin around the bar clockwise and the different coloured trays represent different price points. I was excited to fill up on the $1.50 and $2.00 trays but I was there for an hour and the only ones that came around were the $3.00 and $3.50 trays. I felt conned and ended up spending too much!
