Haha, suddenly it makes more sense. Thanks, I don't know why I never considered that.

As long as people don't gasp when you walk by, you're fine.

Is it because they called rather than order through the app?

Or because OP is ugly?

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 98 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Probably liked the voice and thought he was hot but he was ugly/just not hot? I have no better explanation.

or she was laughing at something totally unrelated to the call, and said 'this was the guy that called' because he ordered a pizza.

[–] waz@feddit.uk 24 points 3 weeks ago

Nothing ever happens! Lol

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 weeks ago

Ah yes the standard pizzeria system. Yeah this is the guy who came here to pick up his order. Yours will be out right of this guy who called

  1. Great name, I'm always trying to expand my music tastes, do you have any Bluegrass reccos? What's your usual fix?

  2. Cmon man! That's a deliberately obtuse way to interpret the story!

[–] Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I would actually say it's the opposite of obtuse. It's not thinking into something without actually knowing. One should assume stuff :)

as for bluegrass, I'm super hooked on Billy Strings. He started my lust for acoustic playing, and the genere as a whole. Since discovering him I've gotten into the greats like Doc and Merle Watson, Bryan Sutton, Tony Rice, and Peter Rowan.

I love how they manipulate the instrument and really push that syncopation while playing. My all-time favorite video to watch is this livestream by Billy - https://youtu.be/BtuGnNlX-UI

It's the first thing I listen too every day for the last 2 months, and I've gotten to the point where I'm watching and not really listening. I'm learning from watching his techniques and styles. I was heavily inspired by Billy when he spoke about how he learned... from watching his dad and just listening. Watching him play, has done way more for my learning then any lessons I've ever taken.

I'm open to any recommendations for good acoustic playing in this genre :)

This world doesn't appreciate good voices enough.

Depends on the gasp, sugar 😉
