*Educated English accent* Continuing with the study of the douchebag mind, we come across certain characteristics which seem to be common to all the studied subjects. For instance, they often show low self-esteem, which manifests itself with high levels of defensiveness, shown in the example below.
Take, for example, this comment left on one of 's videos; once again, directed towards his guitar:
When confronted with the obvious douchebaggery of his comment by the channel's user, as well as the threat of being ignored, the subject -evidencing once more his low self-esteem, as well as his low I.Q.- immediately makes another attack towards the musician's skills -- this time without taking into consideration the outcome of his comment, or even the sense it makes. Like an octopus spraying it's predator with a squirt of ink, he comes back with this:
At this time, the studied subject becomes really offended at the sarcastic reply of his previous non-sense rant, so he tries to elaborate and show knowledge -- like a peacock spreading it's feathers, to keep with the animal kingdom theme:
This is where it gets very interesting. After the musician has made it clear he has more knowledge than our specimen, he suffers what can only be described as a circuit meltdown. In the following two replies, he loses every bit of self-respect, confessing at one point he's not even a guitarist, and then going back to his original point which was already proven senseless by the musician, trying to make it more clear, by "yelling," -- like a cave man:
This concludes the studies for today, but they will continue until we discover the true nature of the mystery that are The Douchebags.

Now there's a Living Room Rock Gods' YouTube channel. Come check it out and send a friend request! It'll be a cool way to keep track of the LRRG's in YouTube!
This one is for anyone who has gotten told to strop trying to learn an instrument because they have the wrong bone structure, or are tone-deaf, or just plain suck. As you may remember, there's a Living-Room Rock Goddess out there called Susan -also known by her YouTube handle emusedone- who is quite the inspiration for anyone who has ever been told they can't play.
As you're probably aware, floating around the realm of YouTube, there are a few shows which main purpose is to promote talented musicians who play in their living-room, or, as we refer to them here, Living-Room Rock Gods. One of the closest friends to the LRRG's website is LeopardJoy, creator and host of one of such shows, The Leopard Lounge.
Instead of featuring a YouTube channel, this time I'll feature a fellow blogger. At first glance, Hey Bass Guy might look like a blog directed exclusively to bass players. For instance, if you're looking for a song tutorial, this might be the place you're looking for: this guy has many.
