(Also see "bass guitar", if you're looking up the kind of fish, sorry)
The bass is a stringed instrument; they are modeled to have 4 strings (Tuned to E-A-D-G), 5 strings (B-E-A-D-G), 6 strings (B-E-A-D-G-C), and even up to 15 strings... although the usual bass you'd see have 4-5 strings (4-stringed being the basic).
There are two types of bass guitars-
#1 is the acoustic upright/violin/double bass (which is the size of an obese adult and would weigh half as much as one.
#2 is the electric bass which is much lighter, much smaller, and much louder than the double bass- which because of that, it replaced the double bass and the cello.
***HEY, IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT TRYING OUT A BASS GUITAR, READ THIS BIT FOR TIPS***
Compared to a regular guitar, the bass has a longer neck and thicker strings, making the frequency lower than what a guitar could reach. In technique, the bassist has to concentrate more on where to place his/her fingers on the fingerboard than what string to pluck. This would mean that the bass is easier to learn but is harder to master than a guitar.
Also, since the bass can produce a low level of Megahertz and if it's at a high volume, this means you can FEEL the rumbling every time you strike a note, and since that the neck is very long, it makes an awesome chick-magnet!
TAKE NOTE!-- Do NOT, I repeat DO NOT, abuse the bass by striking a few random, repeating notes and let the rumble do all the work just to get yourself laid. Grab some discapline and learn what it means to play the bass, get a teacher, be more intuned with your favorite music. I seen and heard enough halfwits in parties and the radio repeating the same few notes on a B-tuned string with a bunch of 15 year old girls watching, be more open-minded than that.

The reason why I love the bass is because it's an underestimated and underrated instrument. And the people who hate or think the bass guitar and bassist are worthless are either
A) dumbasses who don't know what real music is
B) tools who needs to take a fucking musical theory class
or
C) retards who think that the bass is an inferior form of the guitar (even though they both have very different backgrounds)

Get the Bassmug. When a person becomes a humped and dumped victim, here are usual quotes that come after their "diagnosis"
- "Bitch, I thought you loved me! I thought we were going to have a life together..."
- "Hold on, I'm not done yet."
- "You gave bad hummers anyway."
- "Guess it's a great time to tell you that I was trying to hit on your hot friend."
- "Does this mean I have to pay you the $100 now?"
- "HA-HA! Enjoy my gonorrea."

Get the Humped and Dumpedmug. Excellent and an original-for-its-time death metal band created in the mid 80s by Chris Barnes, ex-vocalist from Cannibal Corpse. Their music is more slow-placed (for a death metal group) and the cookie monster vocals are pretty understandable- which is pretty rare from such a group.

Get the Six Feet Undermug. I fucked, smoked, gambled, and bought porn before and I'm only 17 now. Also I've been sent to jail because I broke the age of consent, while high and with porno around the room (the irony is overwhelming, yes), and someone fucked with my birth certificate when I was in court so I was sent to prison, not juvie, at 16 years of age, not 18+ years of age. True story.

Get the 18mug. A really powerful game engine used by Epic Games. Very beautiful and popular engine, one of the very best engines out there for video games. It very popular because it supports practically any platform it's put on (PC, XBox, Gamecube, PS2, etc... and even Mac)
A great deal of the gameplay code is written in UnrealScript, a proprietary scripting language, and as such large parts of the gameplay can be modified without delving deep into the engine internals. As with other middleware packages, the Unreal Engine provides various tools to assist with content creation for designers and artists.
It has 3 versions: 1 (1998-2002), 2 (03-06), and 3 (06-future)

Get the Unreal Enginemug. Kerry King (nicknamed KFK the guitarist/co-founder of the thrash metal band Slayer and has been with the band since it came into being in 1981. Kerry is an athiest and shows no interest in religion inside his personal life. He loves snakes and other reptile.
He and the rest of Slayer like to write about Satanism, Nazism, torture and terrorism because they take this material as interest in their songwork- which spawned alot of controversy over the years. Although they all DO NOT take this kind of stuff true to heart.
With complex, catchy, and utterly wicked solos by singles such as Raining Blood, Angel of Death, Dittohead, Jihad, and many others, KFK shows alot of talent in his work.
KFK also has an ongoing fued with Dave Mustaine who complained that he show join Megadeth and ditch Slayer (and insulted the band at that)

Please ignore that little dipshit; he just plagarized wikipedia's page on Kerry King so he can showcast his stupid, misguided opinion of him.

Get the Kerry Kingmug. Heavy metal mixed with world music- traditional music done by indigenous folk (African, Austrailian, Middle Eastern, etc.) Instruments such as native aucoustic instruments and drums are used along side with heavy metal instruments.
World metal was most likely created and influenced by the Brazilian death metal group Sepultura (which is my most favorite metal band).
It is a very innovative type of heavy metal because they brought two completely different sounds and fused them together with nice results.
