At work no less with a coworker. We’re discussing testing L’Acoustic amplifiers. He said the manual doesn’t advise load-checking (driving into a load bank of resistors) or measuring frequency response or distortion, but simply plug in a speaker and make sure “it sounds right.” I said, “That’s actually pretty based.” Total reflex hahaha. He said, “Based on what?” Lol. No one else heard or picked up on it. But it is based; use yer fuckin ears ha.

Ah, Scruffy the Vampire slayer.

You are new here as I recall. How are you acclimating? Is it time to remove the makeshift gate and allow you to finally play with the other goats?

I dropped the line "more fucked up than a nigger named mayonnaise" on a coworker yesterday. Was talking about the shoddy jump he did making burger patties. He laughed, it was pretty based.

Well the meaning was lost ha. Good guy; center lefty-ish, but a serious trap shooter. One of the best actual audio guys at the company. Hell he holds having a smokeshow wife.
