You used a fish to get what you wanted?

Yeah, back to my corner. Confound it, anyway.

After this thread, I believe I have a new word.

con.fun.di.ty(n):
1) the state of confoundment
2) having someone else help pay for a guitar
3) what do goldfish have to do with it?

Lots of new words here: Coyfound, Coyfounded, Coyfounding. It's a world of Coyfoundment.

CF guitars, in addition to being guitars, can also be nice portable gold fish ponds. The non-see-through sides give the poor things some privacy, certainly better than a gold fish bowl.

Also, having somebody else pay for a guitar always makes for a good day. I still think that the government should have given each American a CF guitar instead of not quite enough COVID money to buy one. Think of the cacophony we all could have created during lockdown.
