bassist

N. 1) A person who plays the bass guitar or the stand up bass (aka. double bass, contra bass, bass violin).
2) A person who used to play the guitar and decides that playing the bass is essentially the same as playing guitar. Many times these are simply 'bass players' and not bassist's. Not to say that crossing over is wrong or that all who do predominantly suck, but that one must BE a bassist not just play the bass.
3) One who studies the art of music utalizing the bass as a medium. One who learns music on bass/f clef first.
4) Bassist's are quiet, laid back, and quirky in nature. Many times the bassist is the most humble guy/chick in a band due to the role of the instrument. Bass is the anchor of music along with drums, although bass is often audibly more subliminal.

bassist

1.usually the bassist is the quiet one that co-writes most of the songs. they are generally tall, to seem propotionate to their bass. they generally have a large stance while standing, large hands, and long, skinny, callused fingers. they usually have to work for weeks and months to make the calluses and their fingers bleed before the calluses have fully formed during shows. but they don't care.

2. the person that glues the entire song together. the bassist keeps the rythm, along with the drums, and usually is the one that helps the guitarist to count and keep the rythm of the song during a solo. bassits generally don't get solos, but when they do, their amazing

Waifu Basics

A very horrific video clip. It starts with a young Japanese lady being invited into her boyfriend's apartment for lunch while the narrator tells the viewer what it means to be a good girlfriend. She enters the apartment and the narrator tells us that the boyfriend's name is Hiro. Hiro has prepared stir fry for the two of them to eat for lunch. When they sit down at the table to eat it, the lady then vomits multiple times into the bowl, covering the stir fry in vomit. Hiro is completely unfazed by this and seems rather fine that his lunch just got totally ruined. The two then go to the couch and she proceeds to kiss him. While she's kissing him, she vomits several times again and covers his entire face with vomit and pukes down his mouth. The video then ends with him choking on her vomit. Very nasty; guaranteed to make you throw up your breakfast, lunch and dinner for the next week or two.
Person 1: Hey man, have you seen this video "Waifu Basics"?

Person 2: No I haven't, it seems promising though since it doesn't seem to be one of those messed up shock films you showed me earlier.

*Shows him the video*

Person 2: I'm gonna go throw up like I've never thrown up before; thanks.

Gibbons Basics

A group of adolescent females who attend Cardinal Gibbons High School and conform to mainstream society's morals, values, and lingo. These girls partake in the same stereotypical activities together which include but are not limited to; coming to school every morning with abstract iced coffee drinks from Starbucks, wearing Vera Bradley handbags, excessive "rolling" of shorts that are much to small for them, use of the phrase "but actually", pretending to be intoxicated after consumption of little to no alcohol, and attending country concerts every weekend while wearing camo apparel because they think they are so "country." Symptoms of basicness also include unhealthy obsessions with Michael Kors, Tory Burch, llamas, Taylor Swift, and spandex.
"Hey dude check out those fine babes, they're pretty good looking lets go talk to them."

"Nah man, look at their iced coffee and spandex, those are some grade A Gibbons basics."
