Thank you, Lars!

You didn't understand what I was saying. Also, you're putting me on ignore OVER THIS? You misunderstood me over something extremely trivial, and now you're putting me on ignore. That's interesting, and I guess I have a confirmation here that I made the right choice by leaving this thread (as I said in my most recent post above).

This is beginning to seem like it's everyone vs. me, so I'm leaving this thread. Sorry. I didn't join the Klipsch forum for this.

I couldn't give a hairy rats patootie what people think about me. What assumptions have I made about her? I was trying to make the point that we don't know anything about her and that it's not fair to have any assumptions on who she is because we haven't even met her.

And yet you insist on conveying that she's just an innocent young girl, haphazardly displaying her sexuality without any concept of how it's perceived - and that such action is surely unintentional... without knowing her personally. No, I'm saying that we shouldn't be making any assumptions about anyone until we meet them and get to know them. Period. Do you like it when someone has assumptions on who you are before they've met you and gotten to know you?

I guess my deal is, I don't know her personally, so it feels unfair if I try to make any assumptions about her.

I don't mess with Sasquatch. I know better. Seriously though, I would say that anybody who has their jiggly bits half hanging out of every video is in fact fairly shameless about this fact. What if it's unintentional? That's all I'm saying.

The point is to stroke both her ego and bank account. I'd like to see what would happen if you were to say that to her face. I'd bet you'd find out that you're wrong. That's all I'm saying. I never said that this topic made me upset.

It's just how I am. For something like this, I hear past the poor audio quality and I look past the poor video quality and I focus on what the musician is playing. I mean, this isn't the kind of video that should have been created using high-end equipment and professional software. It's just a casual video that you watch maybe once or twice just to appreciate her musical talent (or maybe something else, if that turns your crank). The minute I start thinking about the poor audio quality and poor video quality is the same minute that I begin missing the whole point of the video.

We are in complete agreement here. Yeah, so I realize that I can't blame her for trying to increase her popularity by looking as hot as possible. I mean, it's very difficult in today's world to make it big with nothing but good musical talent, unless you're lucky.

I'm not getting the impression that the audio quality needs to be better. Or, maybe she has absolutely no clue of how to get better audio quality. Or, maybe she does but hasn't been able to justify spending more money just to obtain it for making videos in her bedroom. Besides, the audio quality of this video alone is more than good enough to hear her talent.

Oh. Maybe they're too big. Nope, just right. Now we're talking about the real reason for the video. I honestly disagree with that. I think the reason is to entertain people with her musical talents, but perhaps she feels that she'd go unnoticed if she didn't look like that. She probably would too because if I were to judge her musical talents just from that video alone, then I'd say that she's nothing special when comparing to other famous talented musicians.

Oh. Maybe they're too big.

Yeah, I guess you're right. Odd numbers are bad. Everything must be even. Everything! In all seriousness though, I've mostly convinced myself that the difference that I'd create by redoing the ends would be like upgrading from a 16.5 AWG wire to a 16 AWG wire. Actually, it would probably be more like 16.001 AWG vs. a full 16 AWG. lol (I have a lack of knowledge due to never seeing different wire gauges in person).

How can you not? I know. LOL At first it's like, "Whoa. Boobies!" Then it's like, "Oh, hey, I guess she's a talented musician too".

I think that's a part of the problem with the world today. Her true musical talents are really only going to be recognized or appreciated by those who've already been through the process of shedding blood sweat and tears to be the best musician that they can be. So, maybe having giant boobs is the only way she can make a big splash.

Or she's just a regular 20 year old trying figure out the best way to make a splash. So far, it's working... or else we wouldn't be talking about her. The sad part though is, the majority are noticing her because of her big boobies. I bet there are lots of comments on yer videos like, "Your guitar is in the way".

I think you've hit the nail on the head. There's a huge difference between striving to become a pop star and striving to become the best artist possible. I hope I'm not right though because the picture that was painted by that video exposing the music industry was a very dark one. I mean, if I'm right, then she could be headed down a very dangerous path. If I'm wrong, then perhaps she's just trying to emulate what some of these pop stars who are still under someone else's control are doing. I haven't looked yet, but I wonder if she has a manager or if she's on her own.

I'd probably end up using a prime number just for fun.

Perhaps the answer to this thread is: she has real talent and lots of it but maybe she has a manager or whatever and they're putting way too much emphasis on her looks and not enough on her talent and they have her convinced that this is the best way to succeed.

You're attracted to Ru-Paul? Omg.

I'm somewhat reminded of that video that talks about the music industry (it "exposes" it) and that many pop stars have been forced to have a certain image. I don't want this to get too deep or too off-topic because this is really just to help me say what I'm trying to say in this reply, but I'm sure some of you have noticed that Eminem's image changed a few years ago, and quite dramatically. If you noticed, then did you wonder why? That's because he decided that he no longer wanted to be told what his appearance should be. He no longer wanted to be controlled by those who were controlling him and telling him what to do, how to act, how to dress, how to sing, what his lyrics should be, what his tempos should be, etc. etc. etc. I'm serious. He wasn't allowed to be who he really is, but now he's finally being who he wants to be and he's much happier. He's not the only one either. Anyway, so, maybe this is a little bit of that (but nowhere near that extreme, I hope). Maybe she's being told that she needs to look like this. Who knows, though? I don't know how to find out the truth, so of course I can't say for sure. I can only speculate. However, when I see this much focus being put on the artist's APPEARANCE, it makes me wonder what's really going on behind the scenes.

I'll be happy to play the devils advocate here. If not to show off her assets, what other reason would she have to choose this appearance? I'm open to the possibility that there may be a reason that I haven't thought of. I'm reminded of how many young girls in junior high and senior high like to be as hot as possible because they feel that it's the only way they can get anyone to like them. Perhaps this girl doesn't believe enough in her talents. That would be sad. I hope it's not true because it seems to me that she's very talented.

you seem frustrated... Already, yeah. A little. I often struggle trying to accurately verbalize my thoughts. I didn't mean to ignore your joke, by the way, but I had to take the opportunity to be honest.

I didn't say that there's heat in this discussion. I said that I would like to avoid heating it up by getting frustrated with being unable to get anyone to understand what I'm really trying to say (it's an issue that I have, and I'd rather spare everyone lol).
