I'd never use a cord that long. Between the cord from amp to pedal board, patch cables on pedal board then cord from pedal board to guitar then one or both of the cords being in the 25 foot range thats going to be a lot of tone suck in my opinion.
What pisses you off?
I am getting a little pissed off with people who don't reply to my texts! I try if possible to reply in a timely fashion when texted especially if it's really important. For example rehearsal! Please reply to my text letting me know your intentions of showing up. If I ask a question in regards to something that can either make or break a situation pls reply etc
Do you have your own personal protocol rules when sending txts and receiving them?

Yeah, I'd say so.... thats going to be a lot of tone suck in my opinion.
I didn't think it would make a huge difference but it apparently doesI'd never use a cord that long.

Makes a huge difference depending on how much it matters to you. Some don't notice or care others would agonize over less.I didn't think it would make a huge difference but it apparently does
For me I notice it more at home or in a studio. Not so much in a live setting.
And let's not forget this atrocity.

Acceptable on acoustics with pegged bridges, I suppose. Mildly amusing on strats and tele's with string-through bodies. Deplorable on stud-TOM setups. And a hanging offence on a Bigsby-equipped guitar. Of course, all of this is universally accepted wisdom.

you stop to let someone walking cross the street in front of you. They take 1 step out, suddenly pull out a cell phone and totally forget that you are waiting for them to cross. We've all heard about people who can't walk and chew gum at the same time, right? Well, there's a lot of people out there who can't walk and look at a phone at the same time either.
For most I wouldn't recommend walking and texting.you stop to let someone walking cross the street in front of you.

There was a time when people were smart and phones were stupid. With smart phones, we're in a new era and apparently it can only be one or the other.

the one that gets me, is when people go up or down an escalator, get off it, and immediately stop right there to figure out where theyre going....as if there aren't people following directly behind them about to get off the escalator as well, with no place to move? walk another 15ft then stop, moron, you aren't on American Ninja Warrior, there isn't a pool of water right in front of the escalator that you need to consider before traversing. so f-ing stupid...but I think its also egocentricity...a lot of the rudeness/stupidity I see these days seems to stem from a prevailing notion that "no one else exists in the world but me".you stop to let someone walking cross the street in front of you.

people who don't know how to merge into traffic. They slowly inch their way down the merge lane waiting for the traffic whizzing by to stop and let them in. No one ever stops and lets them in, so they come to a complete stop at the end of the merge lane and let traffic pile up behind them as they wait for a chance (clear road for at least a mile in all lanes) *#*(
I've mentioned it here before, but it bears repeating: gentlemen, get your prostate checked. Now. Everyone else get whatever checked that you are susceptible to and that your age may indicate. Now. Being shy about this stuff can get you killed.It's absolutely devastating!
My first oncologist wouldn't do a second biopsy, believing I'd still be clean like he believed with the first biopsy. My panic eventually sent me to my very sympathetic GP who found this "rock star" oncologist for me. Immediately he did a biopsy and found the cancer, and though it was contained, it was growing and would spread. This doctor saved my life or at the very least saved me from a world of hurt. Also, his good work and advice has kept me out of Depends and saved most of my sex life.
Fwiw, like far too many people my family aren't strangers to cancer. It killed one of my sisters, my aunt, and my best fishing buddy. Plus, my Dad, my brother, and I all have had the same cancer.
I am starting to get very weary and tired of all the damned side effects from my husbands cancer meds! To top this off as well he has been placed on steroids due to muscle atrophy. The physical pain that he is suffering from is getting unbearable! He's not coping well! You obviously take it out on the ones closest to you. I absolutely hate what this fucking disease is doing to him, to us!! We have to wait until August to see a superstar oncologist. He is supposed to be one of the best in Ontario but the wait time is ridiculous but there's nothing we can do. He had placed himself on a cancellation list as well.
I really want off this roller coaster ride sometimes. I am getting to my wits end. It's a lot harder fight then I believed it was going to be! Cancer is a bitch!!

I am just a "Livingroom" type player but damn I had my share of tripping over patch cords!!Guitar cords piss me off. The ones you plug your guitar into an amp with. They are the devil's work and they are possessed. There is an evil which lurks in these things when they get coiled up and set loose. They are driven to start flying around and either scratch your guitar or put your eye out.

Patience is a huge challenge when we're feeling threatened. Having someone to talk to, not just a shoulder to cry on, but a knowledgable ear, will always help. If there is help available through your doctors, use it. (My cancer clinic had resources, which I read, but I found that between my oncologist and my family/friends I was more or less okay.) I almost hate to give that cliche advice, "find someone to talk to", when what I really want is to find something to hit, something to revenge, something to hate that I can throttle with my own hands.
My wife has been enormously tolerant of my mood swings, most of which are past, and very understanding of the physical effects, most of which are under control, but my mind still does weird things to my spirits some days. All we can do is follow the professionals' orders, be patient, tolerant, and kind in the face of adversity. Cancer can't be beat by giving in, we have to fight it on every level. We personally can't do much on the physical level beyond the lifestyle stuff, but the mental war we have to win.
These are just words, it's the effort that matters. One way or the other, we don't want to remember this period of our lives, or be remembered, for any ill temper, words we might regret, or love we didn't express properly.
This reminds me of when I worked downtown in a couple of different high-rises. I'd be in a packed elevator, we get to a floor and 3 or 4 people would always try to jam themselves in first, before ever making room to let anyone out. Because it's always easier to over-stuff an elevator and let it pop like a zit? WTF?the one that gets me, is when people go up or down an escalator, get off it, and immediately stop right there to figure out where theyre going....as if there aren't people following directly behind them about to get off the escalator as well, with no place to move? walk another 15ft then stop, moron, you aren't on American Ninja Warrior, there isn't a pool of water right in front of the escalator that you need to consider before traversing. so f-ing stupid...but I think its also egocentricity...a lot of the rudeness/stupidity I see these days seems to stem from a prevailing notion that "no one else exists in the world but me".
But, alas, these are silly 1st world problems when put just under the posts of @Lola and @Mooh . My heart is with you two, it is a battle (one that I've fought myself a couple times). Fvck Cancer!
Moon thanks for this heat touching post.Sorry to hear all this.

Would you mind terribly if I pm you?
It's the mood swings that I am having a terrible struggle with! One minute Dr. Jekyl the next Mr. Hide! This sounds juvenile and childish but sometimes I want to run and hide never to be found again!!
Certainly, PM me.Moon thanks for this heat touching post.

People on buses, especially parents with strollers at rush hour. If the kid's small enough for a stroller, it's small enough for a papoose pack, instead of getting the aisles all jammed up even more. And the idiots standing in the aisle near the front of the bus when there are seats available. Even when they're not, they could move back, instead of making us fight through them for some breathing space. Idiots arguing with the driver about the route, the times, the traffic. Idiots who rush onto the bus to ask the driver a bunch of questions, leaving the rest of us out in the weather while they have their shit hemorrhage about getting on the wrong bus. Twits who stand at the bus stop long enough to get their fares ready, but don't, and they're also bus rushers who make us wait out in the weather while they fish around in their purses for exact change.
Don't get me started on store lineups...
Yes, I am old and cranky.
