03:00 - 16:0016:00 - 00:00

4:02 PM
I had some small thing to do. Done.
 
@humn Some of the times I feel emotionless.
 
Known.
 
Glad to know that I am not alone in this. :')
 
At other times we feel overemotional.
 
4:05 PM
True.
 
(I don't recommend cigars by the way.)
 
Is feeling overemotional same as feeling emotionless, but with every emotion cancelling other emotions?
@humn Cigars look cool.
 
Sometimes vectors encircle back to zero.
Math poetry!
 
And when it happens, it feels like everything we have done so far is fruitless and useless.
 
(P)manshu, you're yet to flourish!
Keep us updated.
You've already helped me grow up.
 
4:10 PM
What does that P stand for?
I just found an emotion. And that is curiosity.
@humn Thanks. :)
 
(You know what that P stands for. Inside secret.)
 
@humn Sure.
 
And endearment.
 
@humn I still have to figure out how my words play an important role in others life.
 
Some of my best words took several decades to make a difference.
 
4:13 PM
You might never know of your best words.
 
Antennae perked.
Always listening for an echo.
Always hearing others'.
Most of what i've learned is indirect.
And that's a lot.
 
Bad internet
 
Spank it!
 
Tried.
@humn Aaaahhh...now I know. Thanks Lauir. :)
And now it lives
 
Right on. Things have been behaving here for almost a day.
 
4:19 PM
It's gone again
 
My best words cannot be something inspirational.
I am using my cousin's wifi now
 
Resourceful!
 
In some cases 😅
@humn does it mean that you eavesdrop?
 
Indeed. Hearing others converse is one of the best ways to learn.
 
4:23 PM
Then you must have probably found some things that you shouldn't have found?
 
I don't do it secretly. I have no fear.
Sometimes i even look people in the eyes.
 
@humn That. Is. So. Dangerous.
Beware of these kinds of things.
@humn In that way I do it too.
 
You opened me up here, @manshu.
Truth be told i do secret things when absolutely necessary.
Hasn't been lately! Others have been doing that.
Still a big difference between being secret and being open.
 
Your life had been a lot of fun. So I think that every moment must have been an absolutely necessary.
 
Every breath counts.
 
4:28 PM
Every moment is absolute.
 
When you go to extremes.
This is singalong!
 
In those cases, every moment feels like a long roller coaster ride.
Every ride is new.
 
(Sorry for the disco. One thing leads to another.)
 
Thanks. :)
 
Your ears are as starved as mine!
My ears are still looking for Beethoven's polo. Should give up.
 
Polo is 3/4 in a different meter than waltz
 
I mean...what does giving up mean?
Keep trying
 
Thank you for the encouragement, manshu!
 
@humn that is something serious.
 
I can get serious about music. Or playful.
(I can serious about every topic. Or playful!)
^ That includes a polo.
3/4 makes me dance, and i don't dance.
6/8 makes me delirious.
 
4:42 PM
I don't know why but it makes me pee.
 
P!
 
:p
brb
 
wtw
^ It's quite a long song up there. tyt.
 
(Back and listening)
 
(same here)
(The drummer is held hostage but the singer, guitarist, pianist and bassist are having the times of their lives.)
 
4:52 PM
(In every single band and every single song)
 
Oh, insight. So drummers are trying to beat their way to freedom?
Makes sense.
 
drummers are the heartbeat of the band
 
M.
You're a drummer!
Revealed.
 
@humn ooooopppsss...mustn't have said that
 
Loose finger tips.
Much appreciated.
 
4:57 PM
bad hand.
I beat my imaginary drum... It never makes sound out of my brain..
 
I still want to send you a midi of Heart and Soul.
 
@humn I still want to receive it
 
Ever heard of Abelard and Heloise?
 
nope
 
Héloïse ( or ; French: [e.lÉ”.iz]; 1090?/1100–1? – 16 May 1164) was a French nun, writer, scholar, and abbess, best known for her love affair and correspondence with Peter Abélard. == Background == Héloïse (variously spelled Helöise, Héloyse, Hélose, Heloisa, Helouisa, Eloise, and Aloysia, among other variations; the name is derived from Proto-Germanic *Hailawidis, "holy wood") was a brilliant scholar of Latin, Greek and Hebrew, and had a reputation for intelligence and insight. Abélard writes that she was nominatissima, "most renowned" for her gift in reading and writing. Not a great deal is known...
Now you have.
She reminds me of you, or myself.
We'll probably never meet but this love affair is public.
 
5:04 PM
I wish I was her. Being a writer must be like being a programmer with his own language.
Too public, I think.
 
Naw, let the children learn.
I learnt from public displays of affection.
Hasn't landed me in jail.
 
Then it's great.
Anything that doesn't hurt you or others and doesn't put you in jail is worth trying.
 
:)
Is it that polo?
 
No, but a next favrite Beethoven piece.
(And thank you for paying attention!)
 
5:12 PM
(thanks...listening)
 
These particular players are almost too clinical. But they know how to play.
 
That would have been weird if Beethoven had chosen the players that couldn't play
 
! manshu!
 
a masterpiece in itself
 
I love playing with bassoonists.
(Truth be told, i love playing with any instrumentalist, but have a special fondness for bassoon.)
 
5:17 PM
I find all the brass instruments same.
 
In a sense you're completely correct.
All it takes is pucker.
But you know i'll specify how you're incompletely correct.
 
Which brass instrument is hardest to play?
 
You're just taunting me.
 
Please do.
 
Piccolo trumpet is the most difficult.
 
5:20 PM
oh oh oh ... did I?huh? did i?
 
And 5/4 tuba is next most.
Those are the extremes.
Alto horn is the easiest.
Bb/F Euphonium is the most satisfying to me.
 
You just read my mind by telling me the easiest.
 
Trombone is the way to learn.
 
are there any electric brass instruments?
 
? There are electronic pickups but brass instruments are so loud they don't need them.
There are indeed brass banjos, but i thought we were talking brass winds.
 
5:26 PM
The only reason I need their electric version is to decrease the sound
 
Attenuation!
 
Coz most of the time I play the instrument for my own happiness.
 
Piano?
 
Yes...that's why I like keyboard.
 
You told me about that a year ago. You must be somewhere stratospheric by now.
No need to reply.
 
5:33 PM
I am still there..
I don't play enough (seriously, systematically)
I still can't read the staff paper
 
? I vomit staves in PostScript. You can read it, just don't admit it.
 
Probably coz I have never tried to...
 
If you play by ear, more power to you!
 
hehe...
I try to but when I get tired then I see the tutorials on youtube
 
I understand you better now, manshu. You don't see tutorials, you hear them.
 
5:39 PM
Yes...I hear them too.
I should sleep now...
 
Thank you for making this a pleasant place.
 
Probably this mental tiring is because I heard a lot of music from my neighbour's yesterday. I must admit, their music taste is too bad.
:)
 
Care to cleanse the palate on your way out?
 
gargles
thanks....
see you soon.
 
^ Okay, you've learned English from the worst.
^ Sweet dreams! Drive safely.
Why do people go to YouTube to downervote?!
^ That piece is close to impeccable.
