* Our solicitors have advised that "mega yacht" means "barge", "Monaco" means "Rotherham" and "supermodels" means "young chavvy girls from the local estate". It appears that our cilent, the poster, cannot either pay for or play the guitar, but does appear to want to live in a shithole.

i'm finding out finger style is really fucking hard
when you get really into it.
Try tapping out a 4/4 beat with your right thumb and then playing a different rhythm with your other fingers on that hand. Your thumb keeps wanting to join in with them, rather than keep that 4/4/ beat. It's driving me nuts.

Last time I was at Glastonbury,
(which was many years ago), I saw a crusty hippy woman of advancing years rolling around stark naked in a giant pile of general refuse and rotting food not far from the stone circle. She was masturbating more furiously than I'd have ever thought possible, shouting her head off to draw attention, while attempting to make eye contact with passers by. Though hilarious, it was a pretty disturbing experience for everyone who witnessed it.
I'd still prefer to see a repeat of that than these fucking cunts.

Paradoxically, it does seem that with the proliferation of the world wide Web into homes across the western world,
people have become thicker, rather than better informed.
Either that, or I've just become better informed about how fucking dense a massive margin of the population is.
My theory is that it has become so easy to find information, that nobody really bothers to learn or retain anything anymore. It's probably just me getting old, but yoofs/teenagers these days absolutely seem thicker/less cultured than they were 15/20 years ago.

He was a very, very clever man, but he also thought the spread of reading and writing would forever destroy people's reasoning faculties. The language he used is almost identical to that which people use to describe the internet nowadays...
in fact, it will introduce forgetfulness into the soul of those who learn it: they will not practice using their memory because they will put their trust in writing, which is external and depends on signs that belong to others, instead of trying to remember from the inside, completely on their own. You have not discovered a potion for remembering, but for reminding; you provide your students with the appearance of wisdom, not with its reality. Your invention will enable them to hear many things without being properly taught, and they will imagine that they have come to know much while for the most part they will know nothing. And they will be difficult to get along with, since they will merely appear to be wise instead of really being so.
