Look at this sexual miasma
I'm going to find some way to fit this sentence into a daily conversation.
Don't, because "miasma" is a word you'd use to describe something unpleasant. Normally a stench. He just used it to sound cool, I guess.
I've never heard it used that way, and I believe  you recently said that words mean whatever people generally understand them to mean.

Wasn't that you, saying the definition doesn't really matter as long as your point is clear?
The fuck?
I'm catching Verbatim contradicting himself, nothing to see here.

Yeah, but it's not always that simple. The word is generally understood to mean "an unpleasant smell," so if you wanted to use the word in a way that deviates heavily from that definition, you'd have to make that clear. Otherwise, no one's going to know what you mean. That's what I said.

While dictionary definitions aren't gospel truth, they're still pretty decent guidelines. Which is what they're meant to be.

When you go into a conversation with someone, it's assumed that the words and grammatical structure you'll use to communicate with each other will be of standard English. You don't have to follow these unspoken social rules, if you want to be autistic like that, but you're not likely to accomplish much. If you define "chair" in that moment to mean "the collective belief systems of Crete in the Byzantine era," that's your fucking prerogative, but unless you make it clear that that's what you're talking about, no one's going to fucking know.

A good example of what I'm talking about (because you still seem to be struggling like an armless baby with this simple subject) is words like "dope," "fire," and even "cool."

How do you think the word "dope" became a slang term for something that is really cool or enjoyable? Because people started using it that way. The conventional definition of the word prior to that usage was "a stupid person," and going back further than that, the original definition defines it as a particular type of varnish or a lubricant. The modern definition has deviated quite far from this.

Why? Because we decide what words mean. Understand?

I never contradicted myself. I caught you misinterpreting basic logic, as usual.

It's actually Solonoid shitting up your thread with his retarded questions that I'm obliged to answer, you dumb cunt.

I don't give a single fuck about your dumbass guitar.

Actually, the oxford dictionary defines it not as a literal smell, but as a figurative atmosphere, so a sexual miasma seems completely plausible, if you forgo the modifier unpleasant.

The example used is a "miasma of despair"

So I think to say that the guitar creates a sexual miasma is definitely within your "dictionary isn't fact, but you still have to pretty much do almost what it says"

From there, making the leap from it creating a sexual miasma to literally being that wave of hot sweaty sex washing over you , isn't a huge stretch.

Sorry that I didn't make it unpleasant enough for you.

Please stop derailing the fucking thread. The two of you. I don't want this thread locked.

It's a Monterey, so basically a poor man's Gibson. Flying V's are the sex.

That's pretty dope. My is pretty much the poor man's Fender Stratocaster, which still is one technically, but a beginner and cheaper version called the Starcaster Strat.

Don't think Fender makes these anymore.

Ye fam, Strats are amazing. I think they might still be producing Starcasters, but then again, maybe the wiki page is just out of date.

I'd love to make a custom one when I can afford to, in Blue Sunburst with a Les Paul body and an SG headstock.

Personally I'd love to get a custom Stratocaster one day, but that's also awesome.

Oh wow. You should find out what your model is worth. Could have a lot of money on your hands with the guitar, that is if you no longer play.

Otherwise hold onto it. That guitar is quality compared to mine. I mean mine is good too but mine is essentially the cheap version of the Fender Stratocaster which is a thousand dollar guitar.

What, no way I'd sell it. I play every day. A buddy of mine has a USA Fender strat which I often play, it's really gorgeous.

Yo deci, the starcasters were made pretty solidly, surprisingly so. Drop some hot pups in it and you wont know the difference between that and a mim strat.

Well this guitar was unfortunately made in china so I hope its solid. Got this thing used but it excellent condition as you can easily see.

I just prefer more USA made products, and the Stratocaster itself is actually made here in Corona California. Not very far from where I live.

Three thousand dollar Made in Amurica instruments are a meme.

Yeah. Is that a bad thing to have it made here?

So.... you would prefer to have products made in China instead of right here in America?

Protectionism is bad and globalization is a net good for all. Country of origin says nothing about the quality of a product.
