    Booche got a reaction from phishtaper in You Know What Really Grinds My Gears in 2022?   
    You know what really grinds my gears? The masses not seeing what is happening to them when it is right in front of their eyes. Covid has led to an awful lot of speculation and theories yet no one is going down the right rabbit hole. Sure, people are asking themselves “Who benefits most from The Great Reset?” and that alone is admirable. However, everyone is missing the mark and that is EXACTLY what they want to happen. Ask yourself this “Which demographic going forward will be the one to have been the most affecte?”. It wont be seniors, because outside of advertising aimed at them for older people needing certain medications or bathtubs you can walk into, no brand cares about them. Hell, most of their own families don’t care about them. Will it be the middle aged group? Nope. Brands know we are already stuck in our own ways and know what we like. Will it be the 25-40 year olds who seem to have a lot of disposable income because they don’t care about saving money? Nope. They will soon be of an age similar to ours and will have already learned from their mistakes. Will it be the teenagers-early 20’s? Yes and no but they will be more concerned about finding some sort of stable income. This brings me to the MOST important group of individuals who will be most affected and will provide the highest return on investment for big companies. The children. Those kids aged 2-9 during Covid will have been affected beyond anything we can imagine. This is the most crucial time in their lives when it comes to learning social skills and interacting with others but it is being stolen from them by……………Virtual Reality. Yes, that is right folks. The VR play is officially in play. When cigarette companies wanted to gain loyal users who did they target? The young. Look at Camel. They used Joe Camel as their spokesman to the younger generation to get them hooked early. Are the VR companies doing that? Absolutely but not in the way advertising used to work. They knew that if they could realise a virus that kept everyone at home and forced people into an online world, they would gain their first and most important step in attracting a life-long user. These kids wont have social experience going forward that the generations before them had. Their primary means for growth will have occurred in a single person setting but online. They are being groomed to completely avoid social settings. “Don’t go outside. Put on this headset because it has a universe far greater than you could ever imagine.” Where is Facebook heading? The metaverse. Have you heard about Snoop Dogg buying a virtual plot of land and now people are doing everything they can to ‘snoop’ up plots next to or as close to his as possible? Our kids futures are at stake but no one is talking about it because people are too self-involved. This has all been done in a COORDINATED fashion. Just look at the porn industry. They have been ahead of the technological curve for years. Put on a headset and try out one of those wank sessions and you will never ever ever think about seeing a woman in real-life again (who wants a disease or possibly knock someone up, let alone having to waste time courting their clothes off) because this goes beyond any fantasy you could dream up, unless you are into latex and midgets during a late night in Montreal. And that is what really grinds my gears.

    If it has been uploaded to the archive then Brad's work was done, as far as I am concerned. He was big on making sure the band was 'ok' with that.
    If a band told him not to put it on BTREE or anywhere, he wouldnt do it and made it his own personal collection. I loved that about him.

    You know what really grinds my gears?
     
    When this lumberjack mother fucker who would probably be happier in the woods shooting bears, or fishing in some secluded northern Quebec cabin, decides that he isnt going to go off with an insanely hate-fueled rant about his ex or whatever it is he is singing about. Does anyone else remember feelings? Where the fuck did they go and why cant I listen to and watch Brent Mydland piss all over whoever or whatever he wants to piss on? Is this the reason why we have yet to see the infamous piss tapes via the orange buffoon from hell? WTF?
    Get your shit together people. Brent Mydland is supposed to show and tell everyone his emotions like it is Kindergarten on steroids. Surely we can see, a little bit, but where is the rest of the story? Is he gas lighting anyone who chooses to watch that video? I fuckingly hope not or else I am going to start calling him on his cheezewhiz filled keyboard sounds. What are you doing bahd? Do you really think some of that shit hits? I gots a speedball on my Floridian property waiting for you if that is the case. We were at the show and he purposely took away the one thing that would take away the pain.
    Brent shook his head at the end to signal the rest of the band he wasnt willing to take shit to the next level with pure evil because he got fucked around and then he died 10 days later which I had to find out from a gaggle of women we hung out with back in the day. Sitting around a backyard pool drinking beers and smoking hash. Welcome to the party bitch.
    And that is what really grinds my gears.

    First Phish shows I ever did see, Clifford Ball, ended up drinking with a biker who said "If I ever meet Dickey Betts I will punch him in the face."
    He fucking hated him. 
    Having said that, Esau has posted one of my all-time favorite covers by anyone. Godspeed and God bless and all that stuff people say. I got no problem if this thread keeps getting topped with that version.
