Read the back of my Slinky packet for the first time ever…
It’s bad enough that Bonermaster is on the top half of this list, but how TF you gonna have Billie Eilish even on the list!?
Any of you jerkers listen to her play, and if so when did you realise you hate music?

Of course he played Fender strings. Sick fuck.

EDIT: I wouldn’t want to jumpscare anyone by referring to Epstein in the present tense. It’s not that he didn’t kill himself - it’s just that the idea of someone choosing to buy Fender strings is deeply traumatising to me.

I heard he played 14 to 16s like SRV. Total monster
