Default AMDJ does it again...

Here's the joke of the day...get ready for it...go!

While I do see the practical uses for it in small DJ setups, the only thing that I can think of when I see this is the showgun...and that's like comparing a derringer to a bazooka. The derringer has its uses at close range, but the bazooka will take you out long distance!

*After laughing for 5 minutes*

I...oh wow...oh lol...this is why I like AMDJ, they always do hilarious things.

I think, what we need to do, is get one of those, and then aim a Showgun at it. We shall then take pictures of the destruction and have many a good laugh. Muwahaha.

Put it a few feet away from a showgun, put the showgun at full and zoomed all the way down, and the AMDJ showsquirt will melt!
