recently on ILX Dreams...

good recent crop of dreams yall

Dreamt that I was playing a Street Fighter II console knock-off with TOMBOT.

He was beating me at the game, so I asked how he was so good at it, and he replied "Oh I just mash the buttons randomly".

Dreamt that Shakey Mo and I worked together at "ILX: The Magazine" (or something) and I helped him go through a stack of hate mail he'd left in his car while we went out for lunch. One of the envelopes contained nothing but a used condom.

I had this exchange nearly verbatim once while playing one of the 3d Street Fighters! And also I was the one winning.

Yah I would totally read an ILX zine too.

Should we make one, then? I'd definitely willing to contribute. We'd just need someone who's good at doing at layout, and someone who has an access to a free/cheap copier.

Other possible contributions:

* A comic by Abbott?
* Record/book/movie reviews, shouldn't be hard to find people to write these.
* Wasn't there a thread where some ILX posters ate various foodstuff and reviewed it? They could do a similar column for the zine.
* Mandee's pick-up tips.
* Have some personal issues? Internet Hardman (HI DERE?) will give you the cold truth.

Was on a bus ride to summer camp with acoleuthic. I gave him this cool polo shirt. We were talking about this one woman at the camp we would do anything for - it turned out that I was talking about a little old lady while aco was talking about a ravishing young woman. I wrote "I know, right" in big cursive script on a pad of paper. The bus came over a hill and we could see this four story townhouse whose top floor was on fire. Somebody jumped out of the window like a madman and plummeted his death. There were two people left and all of the sudden the dream turned to live news broadcast footage of the fire. One of the people was the girl from the Puff Puff Give video, but she was all dressed in black leather.

now thats a dream

Wait, LJ's name is pronounced "Louie"?

Yes, as in the song.

Or as in the name

LOL was gonna say.

Bizarre dream that took place at an officious ceremony where I presented Abbott with an industrial grade/mil-spec Speak'n'Spell - basically a regular S'n'S with a stupidly oversized armoured case.

me, uptoeleven, noodle vague, LJ and a hoy hoy wcome back from watching the WC in the pub, and spend the rest of the evening trying to get a 42" flat screen tv to turn on. NV very grumpy about my not having any bailey's to drink.

also, as i've only seen these people on WDYLL threads, all faces appear as 2d non-moving images on real people, kind of like 'goldeneye' on the N64, or that aphex twin video.

terrifying.

Wait, LJ's name is pronounced "Louie"?

It isn't

it isn't?

It is.

Sike.

Just kiddin'.

No, no...it is.

Sike.

LJ & Duncan

^ nicely played

I have it on good authority that it isn't

p sure he outed as a non-silent 's' tbh, but i could be getting that 100% mixed up

looooooooool Bailey's

you may lol, now imagine the aphex twin dude demanding it with menace

his friends said louie in the dyson video

Both Aphex videos with his face on other people were done with masks, not with 2D image projection.

-sorry, just your friendly neighbourhood fact-checking Aphex stan (or Chris Cunningham stan as the case may be.)

Yeah, it's "Louie".

Ok had this dream about 90 mins. ago.

I went to the apt. of an ilxor I hate (don't waste your time asking). Can't recall why. It was either a very small gathering or maybe he (only clue) was going to rent out of room in the place. In any event, he turned me away at the door. :(

Cut to a few months later. He's throwing a party which he HAS to let me attend (in my life, the closest explanation would be an academic dept. party). Once I discover/remember it's his place, I start smooshing cupcakes all over his bed and into his sheets. Someone watches over me disapprovingly but I continue with glee.

Cut to me reading ILM (at the party?) and I come across a 1999 post from surm in which he asks "So who is this Destiny's Child band?"

End.

rent out A room....

which ilxor is it

it was you, babe

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

sorry for turning u away from my party--it was just close friends

Lot's of ilx dreams lately, though in none of them am I reading ilx.

1. My brother, pre-opiate addiction, says something about ilx rumormongers.

2. Lying down with my full body across a desk at work, which was like the newsroom in Superman: The Movie, or maybe like the offices at the beginning of Joe Versus the Volcano. The prodigal son nabisco is coming back, people say.

3. Eating with Roxy, who is wary of me, but tolerant. I can't remember what she says. It was something characteristic.

BONUS DREAM: Large, confusing, multi-purpose building. I show the girl the door to the sound room so she can complain about the drum sound or something from the show in the concert hall. I step over the legs of people sitting against a wall and drop into the room of somebody on the first floor. I realize that I've been the one stealing from everyone. I didn't know that I knew the building so well. I say, "Swilly fatbacks with bacon also!"

lots, dummy

Me and Sarahel bought some shrooms before the Dead show!

jaymc, I dreamt that for some reason I had to go back to BHS for one more year (have these sort of dreams a lot, for HS and college). I showed up to some sort of orientation, and you, Jon D3Guzm@n, Adam Gyn@c, and a couple other people were sitting at a table. Jon jumps up and greets me like we're long-lost brothers, approaches me but I'm all sweaty from (I think) just playing basketball. So I go to the bathroom to wash up, and Anselmo is in there. I say hi to him but very coldly, and then immediately feel bad about that. I come out, and we're all told that starting this year, we're going to have to live in dorms w/in the building. I freak out and wake up.

I can't remember the context of the dream, but I kept going to all these stores and restaurants and they were all playing the Beatles (as in the Dr. Whiney, Ph.D. thread).

On a London Underground escalator, passed by Masonic Boom heading in the opposite direction.

???????

That's me, always being contrary, I guess.

Was hastily leaving my therapist's office because the girl I had a crush on in 7th grade showed up and told me that my guitar wasn't good enough. I bump into Geir and this guy Jim Barooney. We join in this foot race that runs all through the town in which the humans are pitted against these video game runners (there are giant tv screens above the road, every hundred feet or so).

darraghmac sent me a very important message about why we should be facebook friends - it was in ALL CAPS but i forgot what it said

:)

i do not type in all caps.

also you can't read in dreams iirc?
