Same.
Also english Is not my native language and when i type with my phone Is a pain in the ass since It tends to correct english words with italian words.

This actually paints a really funny context in my head of you ranting about something and it comes out half Italian.
I'm amused.

My phone did that too, but since I switched to the gboard-keyboard it's automatically able to detect whether I'm writing in English or Finnish.
I'm slightly dyslexic though, so I tend to miss words or parts of words and then end up editing posts dozens of times...

When a used prestige seven string pops up, I'll do that. Of course, it has to be in a decent price range.
nahh its more of the running joke here on the forum. No matter what an OP says or wants when he ask about recommendations for a new guitar, theres always always someone who says "jsut get an used prestige"... even if the OP wants a new guitar

Winter sucks. When there's daylight I wish it would be dark and when it's dark I wish the're would be daylight.

Tried to make a nice, short rock song with intro-verse-chorus-verse-chorus-interlude-chorus structure but my prog senses started tingling and it turned out to be over 6 minutes long. :lol:

Also, winter still sucks. But this time because I have no idea if it's going to be above freezing point when I go out or if it will feel like jumping in a pool of liquid nitrogen.

My home's new central heat works *too* well. This thing could heat up our whole house to temp in less than 4 minutes, but if you're anywhere near the vents, you roast while it's running, creating hot-spots. It doesn't have a way to reduce it's output and just run longer, so it seems then that we over-bought on our furnace.

Still, a huge upgrade to out old single wall-mounted heater in a hallway which was 9" from the thermostat, and also way better than the last 3 winters spent without heat after it died.

After changing pickups on my LP and putting 4 wire Vs 1 wire pickups I tried to move around the capacitors as per SD's wiring sheet just to see how much it would affect the sound. I managed to slightly touch some of the other wires in the circuit with the soldering iron and now I'm getting no sound :(. No time yesterday evening to troubleshoot so I'm going back at it tonight, depending how tired I am after work.

I bought 1000l of heating oil last month when I noticed the price dropping from 1.07/liter to around 0.93/liter. But now the price is around 0.87/liter :(

Also, it really sucks that the temperature bounces anywhere between 0 and -20 °C - I wear the same winter jacket all the time and some days I feel like I'm gonna drown in my own sweat and on others like I'll freeze to death while walking to work... My heating system works surprisingly well with that though - it's always about 19°C inside, which is perfect IMO.
