The 5 stages of making a bad audio purchase


This is tongue in cheek people, so let’s keep the replies light shall we?
The 5 Stages of Making a Bad Audio Purchase:

1. Denial: "My system, which before was of course totally awesome, is now totally awesomer! The sound stage isn’t just 3 dimensional any more, it is 4 dimensional. I can feel fingers sliding across guitar strings, drums are like my head is against the snare, and the bass goes 10hz lower ...."

2. Anger: "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON’T BELIEVE MY SYSTEM WENT FROM AWESOME TO AWESOMER!!!. You obviously have a crap system, your ears are crap, you are just jealous."

3. Bargaining: "Hey, this gadget will make your already awesome system totally awesomer! 60% of MFR list is a great deal for it! That’s 40% off and you don’t even have to pay tax. I am only selling it because I am upgrading to the even awesomer version 2. My loss is your gain."

4. Depression: "I can’t believe I spent $5,000 on this thing ....."

5. Acceptance: "Sure, 75% off list is fair."

I used to love smoking pot and listening to music. With the mean green that is so present now I dont really enjoy much of anything when I am high. We need to go back to the browns, golds and reds of yesteryear. If it aint grow outside it isnt worth a damn in my book. 
In the mid-2000's I met the dealer who was supplying Dylan with his smoke (he had a home-delivery business). At that time Bob liked Goofy Grape ;-) .
“The last research I read, there is no record of a single person who has ever died from Cannabis overdose, had cirrhosis of the liver due to Cannabis use, undergone crippling or deadly Delirium Tremens withdrawals after stopping Cannabis use, nor become physically addicted to Cannabis. You could say the same about alcohol....oh wait, no you can’t. But when Forum Members commented on their favorite "musical enhancement" preferences, the only reply that gets a "snarky" response is the one that mentions Cannabis use. It must be hard to breathe when your nose is that far up in the air.”


I am of the opinion that cannabis on occasion for fun with friends is ok and I have had the odd toke when offered in my younger years - but rarely. Its not my thing at all but each to his/her own. But I am doubtful that it does not cause serious health issues with regular long-term use use. Can’t be good for the lungs. And it can cause psychosis with long-term use.
