“At some point in the last two years, I got a renewed interest in playing records. I'd had turntables before, and I had a box of records that I'd been carting around since high school. I always knew in the back of my head that records had more integrity than digital music. I went to interview Jack White at his place in Nashville, and he's a real analog guy. He had these Mackintosh tube amps, and I got hung up on the idea of getting a tube amp, but the ones Jack had were $15,000. There was no way I could spend that kind of money on stereo equipment and enjoy it; I'd always be thinking, does this sound like $15,000? I don't think so.”

Ok. The way it’s worded above says nothing about volunteering information without being asked. It just says ‘overly vocal’. That can have at least two very different meanings. Generalizing groups of people is never a good idea. Have a few overly vocal male “celebrity feminists” turned out to be real sicko creeps? Yes. Does ‘every overly vocal male feminist seem to end up being a sexual predator’? No.
