The unOfficial Today I Hate thread

Found a heater at the record store the other day and it was just too **** up to use. I was so bummed. Tried looking for the same lady in other sections but no luck... Now all the other records I got that day don't seem as good because the real heat was busted.

Anyway this the TIH thread for digging. Post your gripes about digging or whatever.

Finding messed up heaters is one thing, then you got these sellers selling the horrid things for mint prices! I yelled over to him "Hey! Put this in the dollar bin!" He looks at me all funny like I insulted him and says "thats a hard to find record, I price precisely." I says "This record is **** up and not even worth your precised price!" Then I walked over to him and shoved the record to his face like look at it ****. He grabs it off me and then hides it under the counter and says "Looks like you won't be going home with this one." So I pulls out a hundred dollar bill and say "alright, you win, you see this?" He calmly then takes out the record and prepares to bag it but I just walked out and said "I'll be back next week and you can look at the hundred dollar bill again then!"

Not directly related to crate diggin but my mpc's pads are takin a shit on me so I'm resorting to using ableton and it's making me sad. Also my woman left me and my dog died.

place i used to dig at , guy is **** strange, well anyway, he sold his ENTIRE record collection to some shmuck from the City. had i of known he was down to sell the lot i would have got them.

Anyway, i go back a few weeks after and theres nothing but a small pile of records in the corner the City Slicker left behind, i asked the guy owner and he informed me they had all been sold, bar what was there.

Found this for $2, made my day.

RIP for your dog Gizabeats - never nice losing a family member.

Well done Peeping Tom, good human qualities exhibited.

happened to me. i've actually used a record even tho it was unplayable. found the sample for this one on a record that a had a huge crack in it...



found a damaged king crimson record. didnt even realize it was jacked up till i got home. became wiser about inspecting records before purchuasing.

Hey my dog didn't die... that part was a joke. Thanks for the good vibes though haha! My mpc pads really are takin a dump on me... I guess I'll replace the sensors and hope that helps. If not... looks like I'm gonna have to hit a lick for some new MPC dough.

Cleaned it and changed the pads and now it works... Guess I need a new dog and woman now

Ha Ha Albatross is from my town, big in the 70s, some of the members formed valvatross, a horn band, that's still around. Hows that record never heard them?

oh maybe not, thats an Australian release, but its valuable
