The I'm lazy and not going to bother quotes are my favorite amongst several paragraphs of writing. Who cares. Aww, thanks bud. You're going to make me blush over here. Thrilled to be a role model for you. Are parargraphs of text and basic addition intimidating for you? Because they feel like a breeze to me. I said I wasn't going to bother with the specifics of the prices; I deliberately skipped out on researching Discogs for what OG copies sell for, which variants of additional records sell for what, etc. I don't see how that's ironic? Extremely basic math got me to $600. Enough to make my own head spin, but I figured that was a low figure in all actuality. And it was. Dude confirmed he's probably closer to 4 digits. This post was created on my phone so it ran a little longer than it would otherwise. After skimming for typos I think we're at about the 3 minute mark. Just in case that's important to you.

Derek™ Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Can you ballpark what you spent on each? You should keep them in a basic Google spreadsheet if you don't already. A quick SUM formula will do all the intense math for you and log your ongoing total. Could be fun and slightly depressing. ejc625 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't use the word ironic or intimidated in my post. And no, I couldn't care less about how much time you spend on your long winded posts. Way to time yourself though.

And no, I couldn't care less about how much time you spend on your long winded posts. Way to time yourself though. There was an implication in your post that a handful of short paragraphs somehow equates to caring a significant amount. Even though I mentioned specifically that I didn't care to dive deeply into prices, your "favorite part" was allegedly how much I seemed "to care". That is irony. The intimidation comes from the assumption that your eyes trace over a post of 3-4 paragraphs and instantly assume it's going overboard. "Whoa, this guy spent the time to voice four different lines of thought? What a tryhard. Way to write a book, guy! lol" I guess I don't feel like they're long winded when they just take a moment or two to write out, but alright. I'm not going to stop you from marveling at those massive, cascading walls of texts. And in case it needed to be spelled out, I don't actually sit down with a stopwatch and time my posts – nor have I ever. If you find 4 paragraphs of text "long winded" and fail to grasp the idea behind ballparking the passage of time on a minute-by-minute basis, I'm really curious to know how you function in the real world without adult supervision. Classic The Used thread. kjkenney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck the Volta. Haha not a fan either, really. Volta tenfold though; used to love them then paid $45 in 07 to see them play for 35 minutes with no opening band. Thus started the realization of their weaselly ways. So uninspired anymore, can't stand it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck the Volta. I do not understand why you still interpret my harassment of trolls as me being "ass chapped". The Used are a terrible band, sure, but these threads wouldn't garner half the amount of the posts I give them if there wasn't a perseverant troll that defended them and bumped the topic(s) regularly. I'd probably do the same thing if the boards had our own tmvg who'd incessantly create new threads every time new Mars Volta bootleg popped up, and then continued to update it with remaining quantities despite no one caring. Can I just chalk it up to contextual reading comprehension (or lack thereof) and call it a day? 1 hour ago, kjkenney said: Thus started the realization of their weaselly ways. Don't forget the constant shit-talking of vinyl pressings that aren't done by themselves – since they allegedly want to handle them "the right way" – but are still too lazy to do so. A lot of their older records have a demand and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see them sold by the band in 2024 at $70 a piece.

It's just that you like to throw fuel on the fire anytime a Used thread gets bumped. Seriously.
