Amen brother, now I need to do a google image search of Mike Deodato and binge the fuck out.

I need a fucking turntable and sound system. I have a lot of vinyl but nothing to play it on.

Any recommendations?

The one that everyone is talking about.

Nice. I need to get a new turntable. The one I currently have is shit. What model is this?

It's the one TB posted, Audio-Technica AT-LP60-USB. I have no complaints about the sound and the digital conversions sound good. Audiophiles on the web have a boatload of complaints (who'd a thought?), but they also say that the only acceptable starter turntables are those in the $250-$400 range. They have one complaint that may be of concern: they claim that the disc rotation isn't consistent, which increases or decreases the tempo randomly at moments, but only minutely and only for a very brief moment. I mainly listen to classical, so, if that is the case, I wouldn't notice it anyways. I would love to spin some metal, but I'm not trying to pick up an expensive habit at the moment--used classical vinyls are super cheap and generally in good condition. The selections are pretty good too because they're not in demand. I'm looking forward to hitting my local thrift store's collection tomorrow. $1 per vinyl plus a 25% student discount.

whaat the fuuuuuck! Some people have no fuckin' shame whatsoever. UGH!

I think it's vaguely possible they're both by Frazetta. He does have stuff that's an obvious reworking of his other stuff. Besides, a lot of his style is pretty close to the detailing in The Slav Epic by Alphonse Mucha. There are many parts to that, so google it for yourself.

But here's one:

Are these photos from a serial killer case file?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

[Draehl]

Looks like a tasty boar to me.

oo yum. I'd have to go sweet bbq sauce, but if you shot it in the wild I'm sure it has a different flavor profile...
