Guys like things. We often work very hard to acquire these things. Guys shop with purpose. We go shopping for items that make our living space more comfortable and more importantly, we are shopping for things that will make other guys envious. However, sometimes we have a tendency to buy items that make it more difficult for us to leave or places of residence. For men, it’s not shoes, stylish dresses and new purses we are shopping for. We need “man” stuff. Things like popular electronic devices, a new driver, or a sex robot. Wait, a sex robot?

Don’t have any of those.
Would an $8K turntable and 4,000 LPs do?
I was thinking, moving in the Swedish Bikini Team, but there’s only five of ‘em.
Most all of these things are not on my list.
;-)
A large garage well stocked with tools and no storage for the “other half.”
Cute article, but none of that applies to me.
>>Would an $8K turntable and 4,000 LPs do?<<
I just finished setting up my second TT at my Seattle condo. My good ones are at my Kentucky farm. I only have about a thousand LP’s though.
Ever been to this site: Audiokarma.org
If the wife looks like that there shouldn’t be a need for a robot.
That is the wife's job. Once she has the frige and pantry stocked, then we can GRILL!
He better be plugged in, otherwise, that “hold me” phase will drain his batteries.

I’d be super busy ripping those LPs to mp3s, so yes.
Just kidding. You can breathe again. No one but a major audiophile has an 8K turntable and we know how you audiophiles cringe at the thought of lossy formats.
I know it’s satire, but there is always an underside of truth, to which I say, this man will never reproduce, which is good, ‘cause then he’s out of the gene pool, ‘cause he is fantastically shallow and does not deserve to have a family of his own.
A grand piano, a pool table, some Yuengling in the fridge, and my dog.
I’ll be set.
Diarrhea will keep most at home.
same here. don’t have a 8K TT... mine is more like 1,000.. nice Grado cartridge...1,000 LPs, including many brand new pressings... wonderful state of the art, 6.1 Yamaha and IMF and Bose speakers....
add in my Blu-Ray..my Sony Bravia TV, my computer, my kindle.. God, my wife is jealous of the time I spend with the above “loved-ones”...
You are both an audiophile AND a musician? I think I have read in some thread that you are a player.
Funny, I thought we musician types were rarely audiophiles. I have always been waaaaay more interested in the quality of the musician’s performance than the sonic quality of its playback.
Please translate.......
The sad thing is that a whole generation of kids are growing up believing that music is supposed to sound like it’s coming through a water pipe.
