Your pointless thoughts & observations

I like to imagine usagi riding off into the sunset on his motorcycle. 20k posts is more than enough tho, can’t blame him for cutting for a while/indefinitely.

my PT: why can’t people just enjoy things for what they are. Always gotta be more or redone or ‘this, but ___’ I mean I’m guilty too but I try not to be.

I guess Usagi 'beat' watmm with 20k posts. It was never for the community. It was for the post count. Replying to us was just a means to an end and now he has completed his destiny. 

A. Usagi was a good egg (hard boiled but yummy af), cum back fellow assficionado

If you're in a long-term relationship, you only have one clear shot at dutch oven-ing your partner, so make it count.

Reckon my politics were poles apart from usagi’s but still hate it when watmm mainstays go dark.

I have such a stupid crush on Natalie Mering of the band Weyes Blood. 

My innate social anxiety is probably a language barrier in itself.

Does anyone on the forums know him IRL? (IE can reach out to him in person to confirm he's at least alright?)

Hope he's alive and well and just taking a break from the watmmz....

He is fine lol 

Oh, ok good - I wasn't sure if people were serious that he had disappeared. =p

I've seen more lightning than usual this summer.

Bologna can also be spelled "baloney" or "boloney" or "balony" but not "bolony".  Language is so stupid.

I started on Cuphead again and I have relearned what frustration is.

That's baloney!

I'm spending less and less time on YouTube lately. Whereas last year and the year before it sapped countless hours out of my life. I reckon it's for the best.

I just realized today that a tambourine Man could never play a song for anyone. It is impossible to play a song on a tambourine

A tambourine player should be a part of any grindcore band.

If I ever have kids, I'm going to name one of them Doctor so they can get some respect around the playground.

just curious to what i should turn the shut off time for my screen and then what for sleep ?

Apparently I'm absolute shit at striking up conversation with random chicks at social events. Then again, I always have been.

There's three bassy sounds in this track I'm working on: 2 contra bass tracks + 1 pitched tom, all acoustic samples.  I just discovered quite by accident that when I combine them to form a major triad, a harmonic one octave below the root note appears which is VERY prominent and sounds amazing.  It's actually pretty spooky, as the note does note exist anywhere unless you put the 3 together.  Really weird/fascinating.

The pointlessness of this observation is debatable.  I'll make my next one extra pointless to compensate.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undertone_series
If a monochord string is lightly damped at the halfway point, then at 1/3, then 1/4, 1/5, etc., then the string will produce the overtone series, which includes the major triad. If instead, the length of the string is doubled in the opposite ratios, the undertones series is produced...

In music, for instance, IMD is intentionally applied to electric guitars using overdriven amplifiers or effects pedals to produce new tones at subharmonics of the tones being played on the instrument. See Power chord#Analysis.

sorry if i'm being too pedantic, maybe u already know most of this...

working on a theater repeating the same stand up acts over and over really takes all the fun from the acts themselves and you kinda get disappointed at the comedians cause you get to understand that there's no spontaneity whatsoever, even if it looks like there is...

I've been living in California so long that when I see people smoking cigarettes in a movie, I assume they're joints.
