Playing the wifes music choices

I didnt call any one person a name.........you guys will bend over backwards to get pissed about something.

I apologize if you're referring to me in your 10/20 post, Chadnliz. I read through all the posts, and I see that you didn't call any one person a name. I guess I don't really understand your comment, though; I didn't see posts in which people were pissed at you (although Photon did seem somewhat offended and unhappy).

Could you explain what you think is the important difference between calling one person or a group of people whose wives use the stereo names(dbags, poor bastards, insecure, nerds)? Seriously; I'm interested in why this seems so important to you. In fact, you seem pissed to me; but maybe I'm wrong.

Ok, in retrospect, I ripped on Chad more than he deserved. He didn't directly call anyone anything. Sometimes the way language is used in these forums does offend people who may not speak with such casual abandon. Sorry to come off like a fussy Sunday school teacher.

I'm curious how many of you guys have tube gear and if that either does or would influence your decision.

Look the bottom line is this hobby is full of odd birds, nerds and opionated ego maniacs. There is also some very normal and extremely fun and intelligent folks aswell.
There are D'bags, idiots, Aholes, nerds, geeks and social misfits galore in these waters (go to a show and look around if you doubt me) there is also as noted plenty of perfectly normal folks aswell so figure out where you fit and rock on.
I am a nerd about this, all happy men are nerds about something be it this, trains, stamps, hunting, even Harley guys are nerds in leather.
As if this hobby isnt small enough now we are down to turning on eachother...............really?
Ofcourse if you are a D'bag, geek, Ahole or a social misfit then I am sorry. :)
