NancyJohnson Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Just an observation and thought for the day. I find it quite amusing how, irrespective of the intial subject-matter, so many of the threads here just descend into the opportunity for people to post photos of their gear. My wife asks me frequently whether I like looking at gear on here and my response is generally that I honestly do, but feel that you could be reading a thread with a title like, 'I lost my arm in a freak sawmill accident' and within a few posts people would be posting beautifully lit photos of their Shukers reclining on a sofa. Right. That's the today's message. You can start posting bass photos now. Go! Go! Go! 1 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundfreedom Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Can't possibly comment. Last time I said that people were more interested in the gear than the actual threads I was accused of trolling. 🙄 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People with Pre-cbs fenders are like people with a degree from Oxford or Cambridge - they’ll always signs some way to drop it into the conversation.

Oh yeah? That is just your opinion!!!!!
