A serious question*

Yes.  They definitely would be if they weren't in storage waiting for me to find a place to live.

There's been a lot of things going on around here of late, and OK, I get that artistic types can be a bit on the sensitive side....

But it seems to me at times people have gotten a little bit emotionally over-involved in what, in the grand scheme of things, were little issues from my POV.

So the question - When stressed I have these beautiful pieces of wood with various configurations of strings on them lying around here that can I pick up plug in. And I find that for me it can often be rather effective in relieving stress.

Does this work for others as well?




*Answers that are not particularly serious are welcome (and in fact encouraged) here if that's where your inspiration leads you.

How about a serious take that deals with your intro moreso than your question? To some people (namely me) this forum is a way of a social life...sad to say. I work so much, forums are all I have when I take a break. That said, to many people that post, it's text on a screen. They can say whatever they want and just turn off the pc while laughing at the negativity they may have caused a person.
 
To me, there's another human being there and if they insulted me on the street, I'd treat them exactly the way I treat them on the forum. When I shut my pc off, the text doesn't go away. The image of the person that attempted to act like a tough guy behind the screen and what they said remains. Sorry, it's not that easy for me to forget like it is for others. I am what I am.
 
The day people start talking in text the way they would in person is the day all forums become better places. Until that time, the things you or others feel aren't really important, will remain important to some people and they should be respected if that's the case. Why can't people just talk on here the way they would to someone in real life?
 
As for the wood with strings thing...I wish it could solve frustration for me, but it's a way of musically communicating and doesn't really take the place of head-butting or round-housing someone who acted like a complete douchebag on a forum. Sadly, my punching bag doesn't even work anymore.
 
To many, I'm considered as "taking the forum too seriously". So be it..please respect me for treating the forum and it's members the way I would if I was standing there talking right to your face. Clean up the part where people feel they can say anything they want on a forum without thinking of another persons feelings and all the drama we see on here goes away.

Stress, what stress? Stress isn't somebody criticizing your POV in a chat room. Stress is when your mother dies a slow, painful death as cancer eats her insides before your eyes. Music was my salvation then, and remains so today, 20 years later.
