didgeridoos are cool because if you can't play it, you can cut it in half and use a watermelon and one of the halves to make a bong

@bboymarcel You've owned it for one day, and you're giving up... Are you fucking kidding me? Did you expect to get it the FIRST DAY? "Takes years to practice"

YOUR FIRST DAY!

@DelMonteOnSteroids I KNOW RIGHT?!?! My friend let me borrow his yesterday.. I play it loud cuz my neighbor upstairs likes to stomp around xD

Thank you, I think it's really helpful that you can hear your breath. As someone who is learning it makes it plain to me when you are inhaling and what it looks like.

didgeridoo is stopping when he breathes?

[didgesbrew]

dear James. I ask myself: how do you push the air out to make your lips fluttering, cause obviously they stay open the exact moment when you inhale. Might be the tongue pushing?

@darcyb29 XD For one, I'm not even remotely close to fat. Two, you spell worse than that last troll. Three, you can't even spell "idiot" correctly, I think that'd make you the idiot. Actually you only spelled 5 out of the 13 words you typed correctly. Maybe you should finish first grade before you post here, little man.

@ainsleywainsley in USA, we dont only fight with our mouths and guns, America is the home of the UFC and the Marine corps, and the US Marine is one of the toughest fighters in the world. Does austrailia have anything like that?

[xXReALmZXxCLAN]

@ainsleywainsley yes traditional aboriginal artists dont make a stupid snorting sound. i would know as my mum play the didge,

[OneSkiWonder]

@ainsleywainsley I went to a private school which yes, did teach of indigenous culture and music throughout my entire schooling. And I don't use weapons when I fight, I have my hands and my feet and my training/experience. I also expect that never finished your schooling looking at your incredible lack of vocabulary. As for my American ass being fat, I have 3% body fat. I doubt you even come close. To be on the fire crew I'm on, you can't have more than 5% body fat. Bring it tough guy.

@ainsleywainsley Right, or you'd have ended up dead. Either way, except for "Take the cock out of your ass." my original comment was not an arrogant comment. You are the one who has been arrogant. Really, I'd like to meet you in person. If you can't fix my "problem" without getting friends to help you, you're a pretty sad case. I pity you for that.
