I'm in a similar boat, but I guess thanks to where I work I haven't had that much of a problem, STEM still has some dancers and partiers as well as a lot of soccer fans, but thankfully we can talk about many other subjects too

i was born in the wrong country (literally, the instrument i am famous for is not called AMERICAN [blankety blank] okay famous is the wrong word the two hundred people in the world who take my instrument seriously know who i am because the dude who invented the technique named after me with me thought naming it after me was really funny because you can spell my name with the notes of the musical scale but you know what i mean)
Lol, I now know you can spell gagged with the musical scale. I had never thought about that before. Also, cheech and bach (if, apparently, they use h as a notation for b natural like they do in germany, it seems).
Yeah we actually have to cheat with a letter, one is not in the musical scale but that just makes it funnier (if you ever come to my class or stumble across my card it explains the capitalization tho)
I have made a username with my old stage name and I will start using it in earnest sometime in the near future (I am meeting with a band's manager Sunday and this annual gig in the bay area that being in has been on my bucket list, well, I'm auditioning this year and I'll let y'all know how it goes. I met with the folk who direct it in January and they literally took one look at me and changed the theme, and I got invited to audition a few different times, but the theme is literally not one that uses my instrument (I have this really neat hat it was so not about me))
Samuel?
I give up Clarence
wait no Clarice is better I said Clarice first
Wow OP is so cool and different and badass what an intellectual he's just like batman
I live in the states and I'd like to swap with this guy for a trial period. I'll try partying and busting for a month while he kicks it in the no-fun techno-fascist country where the rent is $1200/month+ and having a good looking ass is considered an actual commodity that must hit the market ASAP and the head of state is a senile pedo.
I wonder if this kid has ever considered getting a fucking grip.
rent is $1200/month+
What a deal! Looks like i gotta move after my parents die. Hope you have a good safe place to live stranger.
