grawk Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Note that the bartender is universal fit, librarian custom in this example. obviously. Isn't that obvious on so many levels?
recstar24 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Not necessarily. To many the bartender is the prize and the librarian is simply the appetizer
grawk Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 those people are idiots, and would never find out what the librarian was like.
Leonardo Drummond Posted March 23, 2011 Author Report Posted March 23, 2011 you fail Hahahaha because of Lang Lang or Rachmaninoff? Most reviews are too long, this one included. 2600+ words. WTF? Here it is (still your words) in ~270 words. Or the version I like best: Is the difference between universals and customs that big? Why does that happen? I don't have an iPhone because I felt it would be good to try something else, so I got a Milestone. It's good, the screen is nice, but it's no iPhone 4 screen. I once had an Omnia though, and that one had a touchscreen with a mind of its own.
The Monkey Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 The answer to your question is Because. And I've always liked the hot librarian more than the hot bartender.
Dusty Chalk Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Lang Lang -- mpi is a huge classical music fan. I've never slept with a bartender. And I have to say, I didn't get much sleep with the librarian, neither.
Filburt Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) Good grief, this review is absurdly long. Like classic head-fi reviews, it contains a plethora of history and reminiscing on the part of the writer that is largely irrelevant to the issue at hand. When writing a review, always ask yourself this question: "I am thinking about purchasing _______, what do I need to know?" I get that people might wonder about the full size vs IEM issue, but it can be disposed of within a single sentence. The fit and finish can be done in one to two; one sentence is enough for the initial impressions issue. Start with "they are phenomenal", give some basic information about what you tried them with, and then a short overview of the strengths/weaknesses. Highlight, quickly, any notable features that are truly germane. Cap it off with your justification for not giving detailed analysis across genres. The fact that you felt the need to end the review by hoping that people enjoy reading it as much as you enjoyed writing it should be illuminating. Also, welcome to head-case Edited March 23, 2011 by Filburt

Salt Peanuts Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 The answer to your question is Because. And I've always liked the hot librarian more than the hot bartender. I've never seen a hot librarian. Only librarians I've seen have been all old enough to be my grandmother.

atothex Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 I like girls, myself. To each his own, I guess.
grawk Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 I like girls, myself. To each his own, I guess. Maybe when you grow up you'll like women.
Dusty Chalk Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 (makes a mental note to visit that bar)
Tyll Hertsens Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 There's a lot of jpg noise in that image I just thought they were a bit hairy. Which is fine.

Or the version I like best: If lawyering ever goes south, there's a job waiting for you editing certain of our reporters' copy. (or mine, for that matter)
