Knick Knack Patty Whack

Everyones got a favorite knick knack. Here's mine.

Give a dogg a bone.


Where'd you get those?

I guess mine would be beer :D My drummer and I have a pretty impressive collection of beer bottles from around the world. I'll post pics someday.



From left to right...

The first one was a Japanese beer, and it was very unique tasting, but not in a good way!
The second was either Scottish or Irish (can't remember). It wasn't too bad, but it was pretty thick and chunky (literally).
The third was a Swedish beer, and it was great.
Forth I believe was French. It was very nice and unique. Had kind of a sweet and spiceyness to it. Similar to the Canadian La Fin Du Mande
I don't remember where the 5th came from. It wasn't anything special. Not bad, but nothing to write home about.
6th was English. Not too bad. Very dry.
7th was a Czech beer. This was probably my favourite. It had a nice clean and crisp taste with just the right amount of hopps
8th was also a very good beer.
9th was an American microbrew. If you like a lot of hopps, you'll love this beer. It was very bitter and dry. It was good, but damn!
10th was Russian I believe. It was surprisingly very good. Not near as strong as I thought it would be.
See # 9 for a description of #11
12th wasn't really a beer. It was an apple cider. It tasted like sparkeling white wine with a hint of sour apple.

At a local convinience store for $9.99 each.

Hahahaha, You gotta love Arrogant Bastard!

Makes me wanna come back down to the sippi for a Beer/guitar day!

The next 2 Saturday's are good for me.

I guess my little thing like that would be my guitars. Granted I don't have as many as I could (right now, only 5), but I do like collecting them. Though I'm contemplating selling one of them as I've gotten an offer.

you know how when you go see a movie, and you get the little ticket stub? well, I never throw them away... I started doing this when I went to go see spider-man II in theater, I think that's the oldest one I have... I think it was like may '04. I really can't remember...

however, I'm thinking about throwing them all away because a majority of them were seen with my ex...

guess I gotta find something else to collect.

NOOOO! Dude, don't throw those out! Movie ticket stubs rule. Seriously, don't throw things out because you'll associate it with your ex, the bad feelings will eventually pass and then you'll be like...****, I really should have kept those things (I speak from experience). Oh, and also, I know wrong thread, but dude, I know right now you're like "I'll never find anyone better, ever!" But trust me, man, you will find a girl so much cooler and so ****ing great she'll make your ex look like Margaret ****ing Thatcher. (Now's the point whenyour mind goes "No, man! This is different! This is the one girl ever that ever I could ever love, ever!") believe me dude, you are gonna find the greatest girl in the world one day, and she's gonna be smart and funny and cute as hell, and you'll look back on your breakup, laugh, and think of how ridiculous you were being. Then you'll be glad it happened, because otherwise you'd never have met this great girl. Oh, and make up with your friend, he has similar tastes to yours, just consider it a compliment and let it slide, never good to lose a friend.

Nnuuugghhghgh elephant beer, that is an evil brew !!

I have many partial memories of completely loosing all control after too much of that stuff !

I have a decent amount of cd's(up in the hundreds).I also keep my concert stubs(but who dosn't).

I also have a halo made from my old guitar strings, it's very very spikey and whenever I pick it up I end up cutting myself.

It's good to throw it at people.

:eek: wow never thought of that :rolleyes:

I approve of all those ideas and feel the possibility of me ripping it off coming.

I did also just recently on my last string change decided to cut the little ball ends off my strings. so, I guess I'm collecting those too... I so far have 6...

yeah, a while back i probably would have told you that I would never find anyone better but I've moved past my own stubborness (see, look how much this situation has matured me already) and now I am ready to accept that there is someone better out there for me... much better after seeing her true colors...

as for making up with josh... I tried. didn't work... he knew I didn't want him to go out with alicia, and he did it anyway... btw, you think it's hard to lose a friend... try losing your ONLY friend... I have misc. acquaintences, but no real friends. so I've got no one to fall back on (except you guys, which I'm very thankful for) I don't think I will ever be able to make up with him, but I will make other friends.

but anyways, wrong thread... let's get back to our knick knacks!

Been there, done that. It only sucks at the present time, give yourself to find people with an equally mature attitude and you won't even remember what happened.

Anway, knick-knacks. Go.

Yes, I know you guys got some good stuff collecting dust let's see it.

Blatent Bumping I know. :D
