Take Me To the Land Of Selective Memory, Aunt Emma!

donut bitch (donut), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:19 (twenty years ago) link

It made me want to read it, Ned.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:19 (twenty years ago) link

It did NOT, however, make me want to fuck his mother.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:19 (twenty years ago) link

What the fuck!? That's why I RECOMMENDED HE READ IT, because he DIDN'T have the knowledge contained within. HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT MAKE ME A SNOB!?

Jesus H., the Mormons make their case better. Scratch that, the LaRouchians.

It did NOT, however, make me want to fuck his mother.

Then clearly he has failed in his grand mission.

Take Me To the Land Of Selective Memory, Aunt Emma!

As I said.

That was definitely before any animosity had developed in the thread, and "motherfuckers" was not used in the same way I've been using profanity for the last couple posts.
Nice try taking it out of context though.

ddrake, Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:20 (twenty years ago) link

There goes ned, being a wiseass again.

HO HHO HO HO OH O

ddrake, Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:21 (twenty years ago) link

Anyway, seriously ddrake -- here's all you had to say:

"There's this really good book I've read called Blues People by Leroi Jones. It makes some great points on this argument that I think can apply today and to this argument -- if you haven't read it, give it a try. I really like it because [reasons x, y, z]."

Had you just said that or something like it, I don't think much of this thread would exist in the first place. Why does being 'provocative' make your point stronger?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:22 (twenty years ago) link

heres a medal if you've managed to read down this far.
really, you deserve it. (i skipped almost all of it)

the first thing i thought of when i saw the original question(s) was the 9 minute version of 'a day like no other' by Company Flow featuring assorted japanese MCs, its got lots of different sections, i've always thought of it as a sort of prog track. erm, thats all.

zappi (joni), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:22 (twenty years ago) link

Do think maybe the phrases "Read it motherfuckers" and "You're out of your element, Donnie" might have in some way OH contributed to the ANIMOSITY on the thread?

Because you dropped your cards and claimed yourself winner of the argument the easy way... It's pointless to continue.. here, go to Amazon and check out Pedro V. Pajitnov's Debate and Demeanor. So you can school yourself, because it looks like you need it.

donut bitch (donut), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:23 (twenty years ago) link

By making you seem like a condescending dumb-ass, dontchya know?

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:23 (twenty years ago) link

Clarity! Again!

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:23 (twenty years ago) link

It shouldn't have. "Mothefuckers" was not intended to suggest animosity, and was rather a general, "what's up, fuckers." Not intended to be insulting, particularly. I'm sorry if you read it that way.

Had you just said that or something like it, I don't think much of this thread would exist in the first place. Why does being 'provocative' make your point stronger?

excuse me. I shall work on this in the future
Allow me to recommend the book once again.

Because you dropped your cards and claimed yourself winner of the argument the easy way...

As opposed to what you've been doing this entire thread?

ddrake, Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:24 (twenty years ago) link

also ddrake, you really should check out Melvin Q. Astley's Redundancy & The Spoken Word : Ass Bunnies. Quite appopriate for understand the "values" and "aesthetics" of our whole protocol.

donut bitch (donut), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:25 (twenty years ago) link

ddrake - turn on the radio. read a book. when come back bring pie.

cinniblount (James Blount), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:26 (twenty years ago) link

This is easier than a frisky kitten and a laser pen!

donut bitch (donut), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:27 (twenty years ago) link

Meringue pie, please.

This is easier than a frisky kitten and a laser pen!

You evil genius, sir.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:27 (twenty years ago) link

"What's up, fuckers" is considered a polite introduction where exactly?!?!? We aren't your "friends", dd, don't you think it might be a bit forward to assume that kind of fraternity with anyone on this thread.

Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:27 (twenty years ago) link

What's everyone's favourite Thompson Twins song?

Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:27 (twenty years ago) link

Mine is "Doctor Doctor"

Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:28 (twenty years ago) link

"Mothefuckers" was not intended to suggest animosity, and was rather a general, "what's up, fuckers."

Yeah, that's how we all start our threads around here.

I can't think of any other occasional on ilx where someone has had their ass as out and out schooled as ddrake on this thread. and I still think any further 'engagement' with him from any ilxors is tantamount to running up the score.

cinniblount (James Blount), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:28 (twenty years ago) link

What's everyone's favourite Thompson Twins song?

"Hold Me Now," easy. Lurvly ballad.

I still think any further 'engagement' with him from any ilxors is tantamount to running up the score.

You're probably right there.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:29 (twenty years ago) link

Blount OTM.

Redundancy & The Spoken Word : Ass Bunnies

And so it is demonstrated yet again that if you leave a thread-gone-wrong to its own devices, it will eventually justify itself in a great flash of glory and splendor.

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:31 (twenty years ago) link

Yea verily, forsooth.

(I have been dying of laughter from these past ten minutes or so and DB just took the cake.)

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:32 (twenty years ago) link

we do need a 'justify my ethug' 7" stat

cinniblount (James Blount), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:32 (twenty years ago) link

I really like it because [reasons x, y, z].

i missed this bit

gaz (gaz), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:32 (twenty years ago) link

That's the point, gaz, it wasn't there at all!

we do need a 'justify my ethug' 7" stat

OMNIPOTENT BABY AHOY.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:33 (twenty years ago) link

Even MORE Amazing... zero trife action, and minimal fiddo/strongo/jesso action to keep the momentum strong at that!

donut bitch (donut), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:36 (twenty years ago) link

where is trife btw?

gaz (gaz), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:38 (twenty years ago) link

undercover

donut bitch (donut), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:39 (twenty years ago) link

Retired, sorta. But check the Fiddo's crystal ball thread for his amazing review as Mullah Omar for the new Jay-Z album. The difference between him and A Certain Poster On This Thread when it comes to talking about hip-hop is measured in parsecs.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:40 (twenty years ago) link

trife is mullah? ha!

gaz (gaz), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:41 (twenty years ago) link

if parsecs equal millimeters

fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 01:50 (twenty years ago) link

Hey, I've been napping. What's up, fuckers? How are all you fat, balding freaks? I've missed ya!

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 02:11 (twenty years ago) link
