Get Over Yourself (was Re: Elixir Strung-outs)
jeeze, it's not like these guys were exchanging urls for pay porn sites.
they
were talking shop -- loopers discussing an instrument they use in looping.
the list name, which you patronizingly pointed out, is "looper's delight".
how is that so off-topic?
in fact, in this whole thread, your own post makes you look most like who
you
describe when you insult half the people on this list -- a ranting,
self-important, calloused jerk.
if this is the sort of tone you wish to set here then unsubscribe me.
because
it is you who are off-topic. at least until you change the list name to
Loopers-Full-Of-Themselves.
