Ouch!

My wife is still fixated on the small amount of circuit bending I've done.  She says "He works on toys and stuff and makes them into synthesizers."  Yes, I've tried to explain what a synth is and also what chip music is but she really doesn't care about any specifics.

This could have been discussed in the other thread hmm
For the record, most times she says "chiptune". Then I whip her back and hit her hands with a belt, while waterboarding her while screaming " IT'S CHIPMUSIC!!!!!!!!"

She had bad tutors, not her fault tongue

I've tried to explain to her that techno is its own genre, but I think she has a point.. unfortunately I think that's STILL what most people unfamiliar with electronic music associate with it. Back in the mid/late 90's I could blame MTV Amp on that, but I'm just not sure what's kept it that way for so long at this point.

You should celsius. I have the exact opposite conditions.
E.g. I read a while ago on my gf's facebook "I wish I was a gameboy. That gizmo gets a lot of attention."
