The weird get weirder. He apparently spent $4000 to smash a guitar that was next to a signature.

A man who for some reason smashed up a guitar with a hammer in Texas may have thought it had been signed by Taylor Swift — but it was not, in fact, an official Swift-certified guitar.

But contrary to media reports, the guitar the man destroyed had not been signed by Swift — and was not a certified official guitar used by the singer, a source close to her merch company confirmed to Variety. The organization that held the auction, the Ellis County WildGame Dinner, presented the guitar with a signed CD insert but the guitar itself was not signed.

    So he took enough money to put it down payment on a used car, used it to buy a counterfeit autographed guitar, and then smashed it because he didn’t like who it was allegedly signed by, which it wasn’t.

    This is wasting money to buy something simply to destroy it at a whole new level. Bravo dipshit, bravo.

        Well that’s something at least. It doesn’t make him any smarter though.

          Throttle back Maverick, you’re so eager to jerk off to the idea that people somehow hate farmers that you’re hallucinating again.

            I got banned from a news instance for doxxing already, not gonna post the dude’s info, but his self-proclaimed profession is “Oilman”. He has a blue collar build to him, yes.

            He’s likely working in Texan oilfields, not farm land.

              Well yeah, doxxing is irresponsible and can get people killed. Don’t do it, not even when someone is being a massive suppurating arsehole about things.

                It was not a dox of this man. Kill your oppressors.

          You raise a great point. Agricultural education should be free, and we should help them with those high rents and Walmart too.

      Conservatives will stab themselves in the gut to own the libs who are, in reality, laughing at them for doing it.

    Taylor needs to start selling autographed guitars and donating the proceeds to the campaign.

    Hell, she has the resources to set up a shell company to be a Republican front that offers them access to the guitars.

    This is the Bud Light “protests” all over again.

    Well did he smash the CD insert? He should do that. That would definitely make the whole thing worthwhile.

      I would put it past him to try smashing a piece of paper with a hammer or a rock.

      No no no. You’re thinking too small, the guy already proved he’ll smash up one guitar so he’d just smash the dozen and get more exposure. If you’re Taylor Swift, you pack like 50 conex boxes to the fucking brim with guitars, then pay for them to all be shipped to and unloaded in this guys front yard. Overwhelm him, drown him in guitars. Make it so that even just throwing them away is a problem.
