Sunday, May 06, 2012 6:34:59 AM @mykunter I get it. I took my fair share of physics classes and I understand that sound is a wave, but the quality of the sound is in no way better on vinyl. |

Saturday, May 05, 2012 4:45:58 PM The way his fingers are stroking the cover of his binder looks like hes reading braille. But obviously he is not because he has a newspaper underneath his record player. |

Friday, May 04, 2012 9:25:58 PM "I hate people that say that vinyl sounds better. It clearly doesn't sound better." Sound... actual, physical sound is... ANALOG! Sound is a wave. Ones and zeros do not make a wave. Imagine the shape of a hill... Now imagine the shape of a staircase. Do you get it? |

Friday, May 04, 2012 9:25:30 PM @leesah. That is definitely beer. From the color, I would say its a pale ale... |

Friday, May 04, 2012 4:15:24 PM Why insufferable? He just paid $10 for a prehistoric record-player (with disc) at a yard-sale, and is chilling in his local coffee shop. Laugh it up, make assumptions, take the piss. He is enjoying himself. If you get pleasure from watching other people enjoying themselves, fair play to you. If it is of any more consequence to you than casual amusement, you really ought to consider getting a life of your own. |

Friday, May 04, 2012 2:27:34 PM I hate people that say that vinyl sounds better. It clearly doesn't sound better. All of that crackling isn't better it's the exact opposite. Anyway this guy is definitely the worst man on the planet. |

Friday, May 04, 2012 11:41:06 AM At least it's not an American. I've replaced most of my vinyl collection with digital, and what's not available on CD, I have ripped myself. This guy's a Luddite. |

Friday, May 04, 2012 11:00:29 AM "JUST DRINK IT FROM THE BOTTLE YOU ******* SNOB!!!" Some bars serve beer in a glass and give you the bottle along with it. "that's def not beer in her glass. " Yes, it is. "the guy has headphones on and isn't disturbing anyone" When you put a needle on a record, it makes a sound, regardless of whether or not you're using headphones. Everyone around him can hear what he's listening to, he's simply using headphones for better sound quality.

Friday, May 04, 2012 9:59:59 AM Wow, some not very chill comments here! Drinking beer from a glass is snobby? And the guy has headphones on and isn't disturbing anyone gets abuse for not using digital technology. Yesterday on the trolley some gang banger was playing "music" from the crappy speaker on his phone full blast. Now THAT was offensive. |

Friday, May 04, 2012 8:58:31 AM I'm sure I'm wrong, but I got the impression that he's blind. Maybe the positioning of his fingers. Or that he seems oblivious to the person taking the picture when he should be able to see him in his peripheral vision (I know I'm always more aware of it when I have headphones on).I can't tell if the cover has Braille on it. |
