For sale: The greatest investment emotionally and financially I have ever made.

I'd always wanted one but hadn't the funds nor the drive to get it. Then I got a job. So did my two roommates. Convincing the first roommate was easy. For the second I had to make a Powerpoint. End Result? I'm pretty persuasi- just kidding it's a ballpit it sold itself.

It's probably worth it for the PVC rectangular enclosure alone. The crossbars are designed to be shoulder height when leaning against the sides. Plus, it comes apart easily, as it's held together with friction (no glue). But don't buy it for the enclosure. You should buy it because it's a ballpit. Soon to be your ballpit.

Emotional Writer Needed For Support Community for Affluent Individuals (Boston)

compensation: $30 per post
contract job
telecommuting okay

Special community for people who have earned a lot of money or been born into a wealthy family needs a blog ghostwriter. The focus of the community is providing psychological support for the problems money brings -- family tensions, unfulfillable expectations, boredom, etc. To do this you must be intimately familiar with the problems faced by wealthy people. If you grew up wealthy or through some other means can write detailed blog posts on this topic, please get in touch.

The posts need to be highly personal, emotional and have a strong editorial voice. These are anything but generic lectures. We are looking for 3 posts per week and each post pays $30. If you're interested, please send a brief cover letter with some suggested topics so we can see that you really can come up with specific topics which touch the hearts of people from affluent families along with some writing samples of your personal, emotionally charged writing. It should all be pasted into the body of the email. We can't open attachments. Thanks!

Free "Noise" Table (Tarantula Hill)

Giving away a very broken-in "Noise" table. Folds up nice, has that signature unstable feel to it. From laptops to synths crappy fx pedals, this table will definitely suit your needs and might break midway into your set transitioning your performance nicely into an "on-your-knees" tantrum style ending. This table has been used by GIANTS of the "Noise" tradition such as Narwhalz, Max Eilbacher, Reverse Baptism, Sister Midnight, Gene Pick, Nate Young, Rat Bastard and others. NO Trip Metal Spammmers!!!

Beyond the Ferrari logos, the only replicated parts are the red paint and maybe the wheels. It takes a bit more to convincingly clone a Ferrari

This sword is from the 1700s. I got it at an antique store in my memaw's home town back in 1984. The person who sold it to me told me to be careful because there is a 90+% chance that it is cursed. Since it's been in my house my life has descended into pure chaos. My knitting group came over and they all said they could feel a strange energy in my sword room (I have a collection of over 100 swords. This is my only haunted sword). Since i got this sword, about 3 times a week a crucifix will fall off of my wall for no reason. I am 76 years old. I cannot have this cursed item in my house anymore. Please take it off my hands!!

Great Pic too.

Boogie For Jesus is a dance ministry that tries to create a party atmosphere wherever they perform. Its feature performer and founder is an entertainer named Lorvin. Through the use of his 3 characters of The Charismatic, The Godinator, and Mr. Minnesota, he has probably entertained over 1/2 million people through over 25 parades, along with many other events. He is a rapper, dancer, and a professional entertainer. He takes popular music, cleans up the lyrics, and then gives the songs a great message. He has a convertible car with disco ball and a dance crew wearing tie-dye shirts for parades. To find out more, go to BoogieforJesus.com. If your church or organization would like us to perform, please contact me. Thanks.

For a bassist, we need someone that can come up with creative lines, and not just simply play the root notes of the guitar all the time. As I am a fan of Steve Harris and Geddy Lee, I would love for the bass to really stand out in the songs. You'll also have to be comfortable switching around tunings (or just use an octave pedal to make it all easier).

For a drummer, we need someone skilled, tight, can get crazy at times, but knows when enough is enough. Fills and flourishes are great, but please, don't do it in every single measure! Double bass is a must, no matter how well you can do 16th notes with one foot, and using at least four toms would be a big plus. To make matters easier, I have an eight-piece Tama Superstar that you can use at practice, and even shows.

I probably shouldn't do this, in case this is some ilxor's posting, but the incongruity between these band requirements and the Casiotone For The Painfully Yowly demo they posted has me lolling:

I know, right? I'm trying to imagine this demo with Geddy Lee bass and blast beats. I think part of the reason I find this so funny is his platonic ideal of 4+ toms is my 9th circle of hell.

The job killing and likely illegal (Dan Peterson), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 19:29 (nine years ago) link

maybe I am grossly misunderstanding "octave pedal" but what the hell does that have to do with alternate tunings

DJP, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 20:08 (nine years ago) link

haha, I wondered that as well.

Bookmark No Bingus Permalink (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 20:13 (nine years ago) link

maybe that song is an example of what they're trying to move away from...?

DJP, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 20:14 (nine years ago) link

'switching around tunings' is code for "playing the solo to 'fool in the rain'"

For a guitar player, we need someone who can create as much string noise as possible when changing power chords.

I might like you better if we Yelped together (Phil D.), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 20:16 (nine years ago) link

or 'octave pedal' = 'pitch shifter' and the only alternative tuning they use is tune down half or whole step.

Soul-consuming succubus seeks innocent milquetoast for dream haunting

diet : the immortal souls of corrupted men
dislikes : God and His servants
body : unimaginably beautiful, barely out of reach
height : like nine feet
age : 5600 years, give or take

Me: uncompromisingly evil, soul-consuming creature of the netherworld (i.e., a succubus) seeking an innocent between the ages of 18 and 65 whose dreams to haunt on a regular, long-term basis. My interests include psychological torture, literally eating souls, wet dreams, sleep deprivation-induced panic attacks in the bathroom stall of your favorite sports bar, spicy food, non-missionary sex in the astral plane, and serving Satan, lord of all evil.

You: completely innocent, perhaps even virginal, teetering on the edge of corruption and in need of a good, hard push.

Serious replies only, we don't fuck around down here.

For the right-wing babysitter and floor sweeper in your life

About 75% of this job is evening childcare for three very fun boys, 6-year-old twins and a 2-year-old. The remaining time will be divided between blogging about current events and light household tasks (floor sweeping, etc.). Candidates must be available to work 3 or 4 evenings per week from 5:00 PM until 8:30 PM. The political writing will consist of short, tabloid-style blog entries about the news from a conservative point of view.

The location is on the west side of Madison, near the Whole Foods, and the specific days can be determined (partly) by the candidate.

Qualifications:

Experience working with children.
Licensed driver with good driving record: one of the duties is picking the kids up from daycare. Owning a car is a plus.
Excellent writing skills.
Strong references.
