I had stopped looking at the GOOD ART HLYWD thread precisely for that reason, so I'd forgotten about it when I read your initial post. I'd really like a Patek annual calendar in gold, I can't afford it, but I'm not going to bitch that it's overpriced because it contains half an ounce of gold, some steel, some micro precious stones and bit of leather. Jeez, I could buy that shit and make a watch myself.......

@Giles exactly…so many things I want and can never have. Then there are things I can afford but realistically don’t want to spend the money on.

Life is a balance of decisions and how we approach those decisions make up who we are as a person. Always bitching makes a person not fun to be around with….constructive criticism is beneficial as it allows you to organize your thoughts and present them in ways that are useful to both parties. On occasion, you might make a difference.

What I’m saying is that think about the way you present your argument…just saying x is shite really doesn’t help anyone.

[Giles]

That was a really shit post

Am I learning?

[goosehd]

@Giles …can’t teach an old dog new tricks…but I love you! ️

Came here to say to say all this fucking whining is getting tired, but I see Giles took care of it

@Giles @goosehd reading thorough this reminds me of Waldorf and Statler. No idea why

[sabergirl]

The resemblance is uncanny!

[goosehd]

or️…not sure which.

I would take one if you make two

[Giles]

Because I don't know what I'm doing, it would probably end up looking like this.....

[goosehd]

@Giles …so what you’re doing is saying that x is shite, you can do a better job for much less, but readily admit that you have no clue what you’re doing and it will probably come out looking like shite…

Edit: not that the above looks like shite…

@Giles might be a bit heavy vor my wrist and not sure if it will fit on the mantleshelf

[StarsSuck]

@chap this new microbrand is made out of pumice stone so it's lighter than it looks , but I agree that the big heavy watches are becoming a problem.

@StarsSuck not much sun here, won't work anyway

[StarsSuck]

@Chap I'm always late, rain or shine, so it wouldn't be much use to me either.

Ordered an oatmeal stout and this is what they brought. Small ass cup is crazy.

[sabergirl]

Is it at least a high ABV %?

I lost my wedding band earlier this week. Knew it was a little loose but always put off taking it in to get resized. So pissed at myself.

@catdad1 this happened to me and at first I was mad then I used it as an excuse to get my first GAH piece.
