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?

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.

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.

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"

"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.

Yea verily, forsooth.

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

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

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

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

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 02:13 (twenty years ago) link

heavy philosophy hip-hop, onna kantian tip:

"he who does not feel me is not real to me and therefore he does not exist/so poof vamoose you son of a bitch"

Sterling Clover (s_clover), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 03:21 (twenty years ago) link

Thes One does that much better on the first People Under the Stairs album.

oops (Oops), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 03:25 (twenty years ago) link

okay, not *much* better:

Yo! What would you do if I could prove you didn't exist and it was true
Like ??? solidified
proof of your essence

Of you in the spoof of your birth
Now I guess that would lesson your
worth to the dirt and the earth
And the leaf, now I leave you alone without belief that your
really here
And assist you beneath your fear
An endearing tear would fall if all that I said
was true,
Am I right or ???, too complex for quote
I'll have the final say,
Like the rope to
the boat to the dock, you're not free yet, man
You're sick, stuck, caught, sick in the head,
Stuck
to the bed, you're dumbfed
Diseased with that mononuclear, what I look like money?!
That
latin listening to Coolio? So I ask,
What was your mom's task when she had you?
If fully she
knew that through all of her pain
Her baby was born without brain and insane and just plain,
no
style! No smile, your memories are worth a shitpile to me
You believe that you're free?!!
Man, free from your mom,
Free from the man and most of all free from me but you see,
I've caught
you! My bad you don't really exist,
So I got to, explain this so when I tell you how not to,
You
won't do it, I'm screwin your thinkin!
I know I exist and I prove it cause I'm listening to you
But
I ask, what if God was an evil genius who only made you believe you were
true?
And your life
was nothing man! Just a really long dream
And when you die you'll start a whole new life, a whole
new dream
But that was just a dream, and it seems man you can't break out the cycle
Am I crazy?
Go to your church and ask your white God if I'm right though,
Whatever he replies will be lies,
we've already established this evil,
When I'm lying, you don't exist but merely as emotion
and perceival,
Believe you'll be round tomorrow kid, yo,
You've borrowed time with no entrance,
And
since you're a dream I can mentally put on the pinch
And you disappear in an instant,

oops (Oops), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 03:29 (twenty years ago) link

Is this thread like one of those contests, where the last one to take his hand off the truck wins $1000 or something? (Only explanation I could come up with why it's still so densely populated.)

Keith Harris (kharris1128), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 04:03 (twenty years ago) link

Touch The Truck as a metaphor for ILM is yet another reason why this is the best thread ever.

Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 04:08 (twenty years ago) link

This is the thread that just keeps on giving.

Benign or malignant?

Keith Harris (kharris1128), Tuesday, 18 November 2003 04:15 (twenty years ago) link

Awww, I lost the ILM popularity contest.

yeah, I totally got "owned" in thread, especially by cinnablount, who didn't actually pay attention to what I was arguing.

Man, this thread was one lame fuck with ddrake thread nearly from the beginning.

What a fucking joke.
