But i meant that and other stuff. Just in general, i relate to the regret Spectrum expressed in his posts, want him to know that other people have felt like that.

my less than awesome ilx behavior was due to immature reactions to difficult life circumstances I wasn't dealing with.
Dude, FWIW, this could probably be a permanent board description.

thanks for the support and uhhh, minding the personal crisis in the clusterfuck thread. to wrap up some ilx lore, i used to post as burt_stanton, which was like 6 years into this mess. by that time my mind had gone completely out the window, which might come as a surprise to you all, and there was an actual person underneath all that crap. like, things were so bad for me that i was afraid sweaters were wussy!! like, what the hell is that? i don't even know where all that stuff came from. but i'm going to get this shit checked out because i'm done with this. anyway, i think i've had more than my fair share of time bleating about my problems.

contenderizer i understand that i was obnoxious to you yesterday but so many people have told you that your bravura indifference to concision and love of the tangential makes for shit content
tldr not necessarily is a problem itself, there are posters like say fizzles who have made excellent essay-lenth posts, rather the sense that you will always go for the thickets, query the simplest and most transparent assertions etc etc
if you insist on being your own vanity publisher then at least contract yourself as editor

okay... what is going on here?
― Scary Darey (dog latin), Friday, 22 August 2014 15:00 (nine years ago) link
i'm still pretty mad at nakh for wielding an unfounded date-rape zing at me years ago but i gotta admit he's blossomed in to one of ilx's best posters
also i know the difference between contenderizer and spectrum (and who each of them used to post as) but i constantly conflate them, sorry guys

wait does "contract yourself as editor" mean he wants more or less editing?

yeah the 'rapey' zing was cheap and not justifiable but it was of its time and obviously i was drunk when i posted that
a lot of my posting around that time is embarrassing in retrospect, facetious but not in a good way
― tao lin commentboxing (nakhchivan), Friday, 22 August 2014 15:41 (nine years ago) link
tbh over time I've only grown to enjoy more posters
well, the majority. a few just become more grating as the years grind by, but other people enjoy them, so w/e

everyone who posted was completely otm, even when they appeared to contradict each other. it was remarkable really
― Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 22 August 2014 16:17 (nine years ago) link
the revival was fairly stupid given the cited thread was neither particularly lengthy, antagonistic or difficult to understand so hardly relevant for this thread
then again what is more endearing than a failure to grasp simple things? entire posting careers by ilxors finnish and nonfinnish alike have been founded on the never less than hilarious conceit of feigning incomprehension so grave as to be suggestive of neurological injury
