Guitar Thread Geek

A type of person found on guitar threads, who lectures any "noob" (new person) trying to find out basic guitar info such as: "what type of effects does Slash use?" the noob is repremanded and/or mocked for their choice of music and the need to ask such questions. The Thread Geek invariably goes off topic talking absolute bullshit about extravagant effects pedals, Rare or (badly) modded ugly guitars, pointless exotic scales and dissing really popular bands (usually Heavy Metal bands eg. Megadeth), by claiming some obscure guitar player (Usually Steve Vai) is technically better and its a shame how tasteless the masses are.
Noob: "Hey does anybody know what kind of effects Slash uses?"

Guitar Thread Geek: "tisk tisk, Slash is so overrated and sloppy, I mean if you have to ask that you shouldn't be playing guitar, I'd recommend you check out Steve Vai and his amazing solo played through the mixalodian scale with a bagpipe emulator on his rotten floor board 13 string custom guitar, I personally like to use the entire range of pedals run through a super mega boogie woogie J-899999 amp that really gives an exsquisite sound with a cross patched fade in and scream out pad."

Noob: "WTF??? Fuck you douche, I just wanted some advice"

Guitar Hero

A popular game for the Playstation 2, the core of the game revolves around timing and rhythym, similar to other such games like Dance Dance Revolution. Achieved popularity due to innovative controller (which is shaped like a Gibson SG) and well recieved reviews from numerous gaming publications. As a simulation, it more accurately simulates being a famous guitar player (rising the ranks from unknown basement shredder to international phenomenon) than actually playing a real guitar. Although the game does include the ability to use hammer-ons and pull-offs, the game utilizes 5 buttons and a strum bar in place of strings on the guitar controller, so more complicated maneuvers are impossible. This has caused a bit of controversy among real guitarists towards people who often play this game, citing that it is nothing like playing a real guitar.
I'm so sick and tired of being bored,
Had it up to here with being ignored.
The kids that walk by in their tired haze,
Lookin' for a place just to have their say:
Gonna be a guitar hero!
We finally got our way!
Gonna be a guitar hero!
Gotta get on stage today!
