  • Would you consider a digital multi-fx pedal and a frfr speaker?

    They’re not typically budget options but you can pick up some good deals if you’re ok getting second hand equipment.

    The advantage of a multi-fx pedal is that you can dial in a tone you like and then once you’re happy, buy the equivalent analogue equipment rather than having to try several different combinations of individual pedals, amps and speakers before you find a tone you love.



  • It’s not bad to be fat

    It objectively is and it’s a terrible comparison to being short.

    Being fat is terrible for your health and will limit your chances in love. It’s not politically correct to admit it, but most people simply aren’t attracted to people that are overweight, and whilst appearances shouldn’t matter, they absolutely do.

    The difference between being short and being fat is that you can’t control your height. Controlling your weight might not be fun, but you can essentially choose what weight you are.

    Bullying is obviously never ok, but if you’re not ok with the idea of being called fat, then you can choose not to consistently over eat for long periods of time.

    Inb4: I understand some people have severe health and mental issues that are the primary source of their obesity and I empathise hugely with these people, but most overweight people simply lack will power. Losing weight is like giving up smoking, you can want to do it, but you don’t until you say “enough is enough” and actually mean it.










  • In pretty much every other country, you pay once and the worker gets paid from that.

    It’s pretty much only America where you pay once for the food and then again for the service because the employees wage is so horrifically low that they can’t survive with out your direct subsidy.

    Earning enough from your hourly rate/salary isn’t a punishment, it just simplifies the process and removes the need for the “how much do we tip” conversation.

    If you think the service was exceptional, you can still tip, it’s just the difference between rewarding great work and tipping out of obligation.
