We obviously needed a whole thread for gear analogies to this piece of pop culture zeitgeist. In fact, this is what has been missing since this forum's inception.

Please use this thread to come up with gear analogies to gear use/collecting/hoarding/#minimalism. You can use the two Roald Dahl books, the two motion picture adaptations, and if you have fan fiction... please be my guest!

Insisting I don't want or need any more gear but still checking the NAMM threads on popular internet web-forum I Love Fuzz.

Saving money...

The amount of gear I already own (the cake), myself bloated and feeling overwhelmed with the possibilities within that gear (Bruce Bogtrotter), that new Korg Wavestate (Ms.T Trunchbull).

Olin and me in this ridiculous thread.

My gear acquisition last decade...

The amount of equipment I own presenting my talent to others:

The music that others make with the same equipment I have:


The music I make with said same equipment:

Buying gear I am clearly not qualified to use...

Seeing other people "happy" with their gear..

My resolute desire to own less (Bond), the fine engineers at Korg (hard hats), the Korg Wavestate (Ernst Blofeld). Future me is Hans, looking back with judgemental hindsight.



*Screenplay was by Roald Dahl and this is a strictly Roald Dahl based thread.

People watching me play guitar...

Me reading the comments of popular youtube demo reviews wondering what on Earth they're all hearing that I'm not and why none of them are bored of hearing the exact same riff and sound in every video.
