You pictured it, in your mind’s eye, didn’t you.

You can't say vajayjay?

I mean, it really doesn't come in casual conversation for me anyway, but that's fascinating.

This is the only forum I know of where you can post "cunt" but not "vajayjay"...

And perhaps more on topic: I hope I have the strength to never buy a Behringturd product ever again.

And perhaps more on topic:

 

[Dave Lewis]

There can't be many reasons why someone would get defensive over people laughing at Behringturd and calling them Behrinturd or whatever.

• Emotional connection to gear
• Financial connection to the company
• Insecurity about their own purchases (needing validation)
• Tribalism / brand loyalty reflex
• Desire to defend “the underdog” against perceived elitism
• Personal identity tied up with being “practical” or “value-conscious”

Personally, I don't think point 2 has been explored enough.

Again all 6 points are in your head conspiracy theories .
Explore your Point 2 until the cows come home
I buy my own guitars and gear.Nobody pays me or gives me anything.
What I get angry and take offence at is People / Mods changing my words to suit there own agenda's .

Okay. Chode Lewis.

It's already been said. It's an automatic text conversion filter. You can't type the B-word without it becoming Behringturd.

"Marshalls suck!".replaceAll('suck', 'rule')
// "Marshalls suck!" -> "Marshalls rule!"

Well, clearly you’re able to buy a lot of gear, with all that money you saved not going to school. Ever. Or buying a book.

Gemini describing Dave Lewis:

Based on the information available from The Gear Forum, Dave Lewis presents as a devoted and outspoken fan of Behringturd pedals. His persona is characterized by:

• A collector of Behringturd pedals: He states that he began collecting them during the first COVID lockdown and has over 50.
• A frequent and active poster: He regularly starts threads about new Behringturd products and other pedal-related topics.
• Unconcerned with criticism: When challenged for "supporting copycat companies," he explicitly states, "I don't GAF what anyone thinks."
• A strong supporter of Behringturd: His posts are generally positive and enthusiastic about the brand.
• A source of information: He is the one who initiates discussions about new Behringturd pedals, indicating he keeps up with the company's releases.
• In a debate with others: Some forum members have called him "AliExpress Dave" and questioned his arguments, suggesting a contentious relationship with some members of the community.

Fucking ChatGPT.

 

[Mikael Dez]

Both ChatGPT and Gemini refused to generate this image prompt lmao: "create an image of an old man named Dave Lewis (the name is on his shirt so you know) holding a handfull of Behringturd pedals in the corner of room like that "they don't know" meme but he's very angry with steam coming out of his ears - while a bunch of guitarists are watching a TV show called Behrinturd sucks"
