    If Coolio showed I'd might make an exception though (unless someone there had a drum machine or was a beatboxer that is).

    I was at a party years ago and there was a guitar wanker there, but I was seriously wishing he'd rattle off another song or two after oileann pipe wanker got going.

    I dont mind if they can actually play tbh, I play myself but I would never carry one to a party, simple because some drunk will more than likely damage it.. Also I'm not comfortable playing in front of people right now.. (I'm still learning, no point playing if you can't play well) If I was at home and someone I knew asked I would belt out a tune no bother.. But only if I was home..

    Also I'm a **** singer so I doubt I would ever play at parties :D

    Also never mind wonderwall, it's wagon wheel all the way :P

    I was at a party once ten years ago and the backpacker dude was a Dutch oilean piper who whipped them out and gave it a lash at about 3 am.

    Guitar wanker always kills the mood at a party, just gang up with the rest of the lads and tell him to **** off with the guitar **** and put on some good music so nobody there has the need to listen to said guitar wanker ðŸ˜

    When I went to college I lived with this guy. First impressions of him wasn't great but weren't terrible. Then he produced the guitar. It happened to be September 11th and he was saying it was a conspiracy. I knew I was in for a long year.
    Then the guitar playing started. Wonderwall was his one for pulling girls. Strangely he never pulled. I used actually like the song Wonderwall but after a couple of nights of it. It was engraved in my mind. I used go home at the weekends and I always remember one of my first weekends at home all I could hear was the song Wonderwall playing in my head.
    The following week he got an amp and stared writing his own unique music.

    I travelled a fair bit when I was younger and it used to fill me with a murderous rage when guitar wanker used to appear. Sitting in a hostel, few beers maybe a game of pool and out of nowhere the whining would start in the corner. It's only getting worse now with whingers like ed sheeran and gavin james being worshipped like gods, when in reality they should be told to sling their hook the minute they appear.

    I presume by unique you actually mean shìte...

    I was there in the early/mid 90s.

    U2 "One", U2 "One", U2 "One", some mangled effort at "Stairway to Heaven", back to U2 "One"...

    Are you the Conor74 formerly of DH towers? And was it you who started a thread which described Marc Janko (I think) as "6 foot 7 inches of ****e"?

    Serious amount of jealousy going on in here, lads.

    If someone can play guitar and the majority of people at the party want them to play, what's the problem? We actually had to buy a wet floor sign for the house we were living in as the floors were sopping wet from the snail trails, when the guitar came out at a party.

    Are you ....... "Guitar Wanker" ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 895 ✭✭✭crybaby


    This happened to me far too often back in my college days, great craic would be had in a pub/nightclub and then back to someone's gaff and then halfway through the first bottle/can a guitar would appear seemingly out of thin air being wielded by someone nobody really knew very well either.

    Do these blokes just wander around town looking for house parties to destroy?

    Do you hold a mini referendum before you disrupt all the various conversations people are having and force them all to stop, look and listen to you?

    It's the most rude and obnoxious thing you can do at a party. If I wanted to go to a gig, I'd have gone to a gig and not a party.

    Who says the majority of the people at the party want them to play? From the posts on here it seems that most people seem to think guitar wanker is a tosser for ruining parties with their "talent"

    Yup, guitar guy is one of the worst at a party. Next up are the people who shush you and force you to listen to guitar guy.

    You guys think guitar wanker is bad?

    What about the drum circle nazis

    They set up a circle of bongo drums and start bashing away on them and if anyone tries to join in for a bit of craic they get the evil eye for being out of rhythm

    but none of these compare even in the slightest to the number one arsehole at every house party, the self appointed DJ

    There's always one guy who thinks we should all have to listen to his most obscure 'amazing songs' from the b sides of bootlegs of bands nobody has ever heard of.

    He'll stand beside the music system all night guarding it in case anyone tries to change the music or put on something that he deems to be 'pop'

    It's the most rude and obnoxious thing you can do at a party. If I wanted to go to a gig, I'd have gone to a gig and not a party.

    A pumpkin disagrees: the most obnoxious thing you can do at a party is get blind stinking drunk; make a complete ****ing arse of yourself; set off a fire extinguisher; high five random strangers; try and get the house owner's pet drunk or stoned or both; slobber over someone you really, really fancy and basically not stop bothering him/her/it all night; act like a piece of **** 'cause someone doesn't want your gross gaping, slobbering mouth anywhere near theirs; get naked; start a fight; piss yourself; throw up on the settee; half sing, half mumble the chorus to "Dirty Ould Town" ('cause that's all you ****ing Know!); dribble on and on about National pride or some **** - and make even more of a **** of yourself; piss yourself again; fall on your arse; drunk text/call/PM some poor ****er who can't stand your ass; force someone else to make sure you get to A&E okay; **** your pants; have your stomach pumped; take no responsibility for your drunken ****; sleep it off; do it all over again.

    All of those sound a lot ****ing worse to be honest. Guitar guy: not so bad, unless you're a jealous ****!

    I'm sure No.9 is forgetting one or two... she can't remember she was ****faced!!

    What about guitar wanker who brings his girlfriend along to the house party so they can duet and do harmonies? Good Jesus STFU. Then when she pulls a tin whistle out of her sleeve to tootle along with him you know it's time to call it a night.

    I remember being at a party in my college days.
    Went into the kitchen and there was guitar-wanker himself sat at the table churning out some Radiohead (this was the 90's).

    Not sure if it was the tortured expression on guitar-wanker or the look of rapt adulation of his band of acolytes gathered around the table, but I got a really bad case of the giggles.

    Had to exit the room to looks of stern disapproval all around.

    Who did I think I was laughing at a house-party?
