So, should I get roundwound or flatwound strings for my new fretless bass?

I read that as "roundworm or flatworm" and was seriously disgusted.

I read it as a question on what type of strings he should get for his new fretless bras and was seriously confused.

That's nothing, a true ATT post will change topic midstream...

I was looking at coffee machines today and decided upon a very nice little espresso number by Gaggia. It was on offer, and came with 6 cups and saucers and some free coffee. Not sure I'll like the java, but the cups are very cute! There was also a demo machine, so I was able to try it out and I love it! I'm getting my new flat tomorrow and have been buying all sorts of boring grown up stuff, So I keep having to buy such things to keep a grip on my youth! Went to get a bed on Thursday, ended up getting a bed and a plasma screen because a bed on it's own is very dull.

I really want a Monster energy drink right now, but I'm too lazy to get off the couch in my dorm room to go buy one. I also had an amazing omelet ( ham and jalapeno ) for breakfast.

You cannot be told what the ATT is, you must have it inserted into your rectum. Then you will know for yourself.

I did the same thing a while back when I ended up with my condo, except my purchases were more a really nice toaster instead of an espresso machine and a LCD TV instead of a plasma. I should have gone plasma instead of LCD, but I did get a top of the line ($7,000!) king size mattress which kinda' makes up for it.

Of course, then my grandfather dropped dead and I ended up moving from my condo into my grandmother's 5,000 square foot superbunker to take care of her. The free room and board is nice, but it still isn't hardly my own three bedroom condo. I still have the bed and the TV (and the towels and everything else), but my grandmother refuses to realize the clear superiority of my toaster to her 30 year old model (she maintains that her toaster is brand new, I showed her the manufacturing date of 1977 on the bottom of it and she didn't get the significance of what I was saying, which should give you some idea as to why I'm living over here). I really feel kinda' bad for my poor little toaster, sitting all alone and unused in its box. :P

The squiggles made me curious. It needed to be investigated.

I'm still wondering where the light switch for the dining room is.

The ~ seems to be a combination of 9 pixels, forming 3 lines that appear to be slightly curved. Truly fascinating.

The ~ is like an elevated _ with part of it curving like this / and this / again. It then forms a line that I use to sign my name at the bottom of emails as such.

Not sure why, but I like the look of that.

No.
ATT is just the most postmodern forum.
Nevermind, ignore that. You'll all be like "what does that mean?" and I really don't feel like explaining since it's a joke.


ATT is just more laid back and accepting than most other forums. However, that doesn't mean you can come in here and act like an idiot.
