Either with a band or solo....many times.
The next poster has never been on stage, let alone in the front of a crowd of 15 or more. (with that said crowd paying attention to just them)

I was the underwater explorer in my second grade play. I swam to the fish, the mermaid, the crab, the fisherman....
I was excellent
The next poster got instruction on some musical instrument

I thought I was being taught the piano...turns out it was a typewriter class.
The next poster has used the sound of a typewriter to write music.

No, but I do use my typewriter to write letters from time to time.
The next poster also owns a typewriter.

Yes, a little portable I bought for $49.95 from Woolworths in 1975 that I still have. I typed a lot of essays on that thing, & used buckets of tipp-ex. I used to hate having to do all my essays with footnotes, as I never knew how many were going to be needed per page. Now I type them straight on to the computer & the formatting does it for me - one aspect of technology I just love!!
The next poster doesn't know what a typewriter is!

I learned to type on a typewriter, we also had the old school candlestick phones when I was growing up, my mum liked them.
The next poster owns, or used to own, a candlestick phone

I do not own a candlestick phone, although it is on my list of things I would like to own. My current phone is a wall-mounted rotary. I also own a typewriter, although unfortunately it is not in working condition. It's an Underwood, and it is probably about three-quarters of a century old. Most of what I own is from the first half of the 20th century.
The next poster also collects things from long before his time.

Hmm. "Long before" is vague. Most of the music I listen to is from a decade or two before my time, but I also grew up in a house full of antiques that are probably closer to being long before my time.
The next poster grew up with nothing in their house older than their parents.

"Well, I don't really think that the end can be assessed as of itself as being the end because what does the end feel like? It's like saying when you try to extrapolate the end of the universe, you say, if the universe is indeed infinite, then how - what does that mean? How far is all the way, and then if it stops, what's stopping it, and what's behind what's stopping it? So, what's the end, you know, is my question to you."

And not a lot of that, either!
The next poster is an antique, or at least vintage.

I resemble that remark! Seriously, It's all a state of mind. Now, I'm off to find mine.
The next poster will not use alliteration in their post.

No, of course I wont.  The next poster clicked at least one of those links, and had several hours of their life stolen...

Nope! I rolled my mouse over them though, just to see where they'd take me. Looks like fun.
The next poster was grateful for the distraction.

Actually, I wasn't looking for a distraction but that site pulled me in anyway. What is it with that site?
The next poster know which site I am referring to (without looking at the above links!)

Well I had already looked, but I would have known what you meant anyway. That sight is eerily addicting.
The next poster has never before visited the aforementioned site...

Crap, I skipped to the last post and said "what site?" and then clicked it.
The next poster will never go to that site even though the curiousity is overwhelming...

'Never' is a long, long time, but I feel no overwhelming urge to follow the link right now. The next poster has better things to do than follow random links.  |

Certainly not links to TVTropes.
The next poster thinks Wikipedia can be just as big a time waster.

You always find morels around the base of trees. Now we know why.
The next poster has never eaten a morel.

Not to my knowledge. I've eaten some interesting things over the years though.

Many... There used to be a small patch growing behind our house every year.
The next poster thinks wild fruits/mushrooms are the best, and goes looking for them at least once a year.

We used to growing up, hell we had a wild pumpkin patch in my backyard growing up.
Now I live in Southern California, the only thing that's wild out here is the old west, and even that was domesticated for tourists.
The next poster has always lived in a city.
