dude, goooooo gooooone!!!
my kid bought a guitar for $10 once. well wait. that was the asking price, he ended up forcing the guy to take $30.
(guitars have a glassy, glossy finish WAY more delicate than a windshield!!)
the guy told him it was a thrash guitar (not 'thrash' as in 'the finest music known to man' but as in 'i thrashed this guitar & will sell it to you for the price of a coupla pax a smokes'
so he bought it, and went to pick it up, thinking he was getting an epiphone.
DUDE IT WAS A LES PAUL!!!!!
*non guitar translator*
that's like going to buy a ratty ol' chevy offa craigslist & it turning out IT WAS A CADILLAC- CUZ CHEVY & CADILLAC ARE BOTH MADE BY GM & THE PERSON DIDN'T KNOW THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE!!!'
so my son, being a lot more like his mama that he likes to admit :D told the guy, 'uh..... dude, that's a freakin' les paul.'
& they guy was nonchalant & dismissive.
after much negotiation, my awesome son forced him to take an extra $20 for it, refusing to take no for answer, and excitedly, proudly, beamingly brought home the ugliest piece a junk id ever seen in my life.
doooode. i was freakin' crushed & furious at him for being THAT nice to an obvious thief!!!
i was like 'you gave that guy $30 freakin' dollars for THIS?!!?!?! and he only wanted ten bux?!?!!?1' i calmly axed him (lol. totally lying!! dooode!!!!! guitar looked like it had been kidnapped by terrorists, blindfolded & wrapped in duct tape & thrown into a hot trunk for 6 years!!!)
but he was SO frothin' at the mouth slobbering with excitement.
so i checked with dh, who knows all kindsa stuff about guitars. lol, and as soon as he saw it, he almost cried at what an incredible, awesome whale of a deal the kid had gotten.
huh!! whatever!!!
DH was salivating as he told me 'all he has to do is get this stuff called 'goo gone' & blah, blah blah etc!!!' my ears shut down, cuz 'all he jasta to is get this stuff called....' back then, BC, "before coupons" meant some KRAZEE expensive shoppping trip i'd have to chisel into my schedule & no way!!!
kid's gotta learn, 'don't be a moron & buy something hideous!!' i figured :D
next day, DH CAME HOME with the goo gone stuff! lol, wow!! without me texting him a reminder saying, "hey can ya go shopping? ;)")
and DANG!!!!
oh my word!!!!! dooooode!!!!! dude!!!!
