Green Russian Muff clone for $55 shipped. Haven't played it much but it sounds like a big muff is supposed to sound. Cool graphics for a budget pedal too. Didn't need it, but I can't say no to fuzz.



I'm finally starting to work out of the office again and last week I realized how uncomfortable my big over the ear headphones were. These were $45 and sound great. Super comfortable as well.

Are the russian big muffs worth something now? I have a black one kicking around somewhere.

Balter hazy xpa and some Oakley frog skins
I left my cigarette burning outside the Oakley store and when I rolled out with my sunnies I grabbed it out of the garden and it was still burning so I kept smoking it
This lady saw me grab it out the garden and looked disgusted

What the fuck happened to frogskins
I got so many in storage from back in the day the good ones used to be $150
The good ones now are $270
I got 15% off an average pair they were still $143

They said if I take a photo of my receipt I can get a pair for half price when I break them

I reckon I should just get servo sunnies next time
I bet I trash these cunts by this time tomorrow

I just checked reverb and it looks like they go for at least $200. I'd say that's pretty good considering you can get the EHX reissue which is in a much smaller size for under $100. Not sure how much you paid for it, but I'd imagine it wasn't too much if you've had it for a long time.

If it's just sitting, put it up for sale.

I think it was $40 new. That's pretty awesome.

Yeah they're typical ear buds. They do a good job as far as blocking out typical noise but they're not industrial grade

Think of it like an ear plug that plays sounds. They give you like 4 different sized rubber things so you can find what fits your ears best. The tighter the fit, the more "noise cancelling" they are.

Never tried high end noise cancelling buds, so I've got nothing to compare these to.

A new pillow because my bowling ball head flattens them super fast, which as a side sleeper, results in me waking up with a dead arm.

Fucking inlet cheap inlet hose for the toilet in our apartment blew this morning. Went to shut off the rusty toilet water supply valve and the handle broke right off. Husband had to shut off the water for the whole apartment. So yeah, bought a new inlet hose, top of the line. Never want to deal with that again.

Canvas vests like this so I can keep my phone in the chest pocket while I listen to music on my Bluetooth ear buds as I do slappies alone in a parking lot.

I got my carhartt sherpa vest in 2016 and it's still going strong. super warm and allows room for movement. apparently they're kinda in style now too

I bought maaaaad shit today.
-13 gallons h2o
-2 cups of coffee
-breakfast sandwich (wrong one too. spicy egg, not spicy egg and cheese. oh well. it was good anyways)
-postage

ok I guess that's not really a lot of shit.

A Dr. Scientist Dusk and this Electro Harmonix dual expression pedal. The Dusk is an analog low pass filter with digital controls, definitely interesting. Unfortunately the expression pedal feels kinda flimsy, I will probably try another.

I ordered some figure skating leather gloves with padded palms to protect my old hands. Hopefully I won‘t look too much like an ice princess with them.  8)
