Ranking all the bass brands

a non-AI ranking of bass guitars and amps by a very cranky & sick AMP the bass player. I found this entertaining:

I appreciate the nihilistic pointlessness of this video for entertainment purposes, but I am still very disappointed by the utter predictability of it all :wink:

I can only really disagree with his ranking Squier and Sterling. I’d slot them just under Sire and Yamaha.

AMP, dude. Seriously. Just take another hit of Robitussin, finish your blunt, and get your ass back behind the counter at GC before Brad cans you for reals this time (Brad is SUCH a dick!). Those Ernie Ball Slinkies ain’t gonna sell themselves!

There went 90 seconds of time shot in the ass I’ll never get back. We are not amused.

The part where finally added he ā€œNever played oneā€ category (with tons of great stuff in it) for fairness and then ā€œLiteral Dogshitā€, and immediately dropped Gibson into it with a booming sound effect got a lol from me.

This was awesome, just cranky and pointless on purpose. Also love that he pinned one of the youtube comments that were basically like these:

Dunno what kind of ranking this is. There’s more on the have not played list than the ranking lists.

His reasoning is just lame to terrible.

That’s all I have to say ā€˜bout that.

For those that aren’t getting it, this entire video is a joke about him being sick and cranky and needing to blow off steam, with some personal experience commentary on some of the brands thrown in, and some solid humor thrown at some sacred cows - including about how tier lists are dumb.

It’s not meant to be taken super seriously but there’s some interesting bits of personal experience in there too.

It’s why he pinned the comment about the video sucking :rofl:

It wasn’t perfect but I would give it about an 7 or 8/10 in terms of entertainment value - at least two or three lol moments for me.

Not everything needs to be explained to the great unwashed. Case in point: It’s entirely obvious that this video is an attempt at humor for the sake of entertainment. However, humor is relative, as are one’s tastes in music, art, food, etc.

As such, humor to some can be regarded as a pointless waste of time by others. And both sides are correct. No harm, no foul.

Not implying anything :slight_smile:

You assume that but it often isn’t the case, especially people with ASD. I have a friend who can’t recognize sarcasm. Even when she knows something is a joke, she can’t recognize that it is and takes everything literally. There’s a point in human development where children develop critical thinking and start to question that something might not be true and it’s like she never developed that :slightly_smiling_face:
