BEST THREAD ON ILX: Part TWO - The Poll

I think... eleven of these threads could be described that way?

My favourite moment on 'When ILE/Moderator board mods get shook' is Curtis' Chariots Of Fire jpg.

I'm going to take a while over deciding where my vote falls. For a start I'm going to have to read quite a few. The bookies' favourite is still "Liverpool Tickets Fiasco", however.

the hutter one is valuable for an early scenario-writing foray from tv's dog latin.

Yeah, why wasn't Dog Latin's sitcom nominated? Other than political correctness gone mad?

Do you know what the word "condescending" means?

no. :(

I think there are a bunch of other album cover threads that slay that one.

like what? the others aren't here so it's a representative thing too i guess

from a personal point of view i would've liked to see the 00-04 albums/singles poll threads here as it was so much fun co-ordinating and revealing the results, and set a precedent for other lists. and the extraordinary punchline of both the 'wrong' album and 'wrong' single winning and ILM realising it had created a 'not as cool as it thinks it is' monster and the monster was it.

whichever thread it was where Ronan ignited the DON'T TRY IT meme should've been here too

So many "moments" maybe deserve their own nomination/poll process.

Great threads as a whole are rarer.

uppers. although the thread should have been locked after nickalicious posted this image because it syncs up ridiculuosly well with uppers.wav and hasnt been topped since, imho.

I dance everything

that's not on the Mar thread though..?

Well it is a Marissa thread in that it was started by her...

mark g otm.

ilx is a living tradition and the best moments come up often enough without the need for polling.

xpost well, it's not on the "Bela Fleck" thread.

True

"DON'T TRY IT STEVEM YOUR FACE WILL BE A MASHUP" = still the funniest line ever posted.

So which thread is it on? (sigh)

"DON'T TRY IT STEVEM YOUR FACE WILL BE A MASHUP" = still the funniest line ever posted.

No, the funniest line on that thread is "The only E you'll be going near is A&E"

Not enough love here for Matos' mother's incredibly stupid ex-husband. My most re-read thread by a long way.

Re-reading the Jam thread just now wins it my vote. Takes an amazing turn when we all realise it's about rent boys.

Solved: Why White Ppl are Assholes

Wins best opening post ever. The actual thread is kind of disappointing after all that.

x-post Yeah I voted for the Jam thread. I would like Paul Weller to read it.

i need to read the jam thread. never been aware of it until now.

actually, there's a few of these i'm totally unaware of. jesus. what delights await me?

you can thank me with your votes

you know, you're kinda convincing me, and i might use my OTHER LOGIN to do just that. couch thread, though ... i nearly broke my laptop laughing. (i'm a very puerile man.)

DOES ANYONE BELIEVE THE COUCH STORY TO BE REAL THO?

There are some elements which give me pause.

who cares?

Hey Louis, the Bobby Gillespie Bullshit Game thread was nominated twice, butins't in the poll! it has hilarious impressions of Germans in it!

I haven't read most of these, but I can't believe they'd be as genius as "so not going to happen".... oh man, "in ever old movie" ever, I've been searching everywhere for that thread!!!!

Sorry, that was garbled, but you get the idea...

I CARE WHY BECAUSE IT LOOK INTERSTING

i have never doubted the couch

my favorites are so not gonna happen snorg girl and incredibly stupid step father but so not gonna happen wins and we really need a 1-10 type of weighted voting thingy for this - also ilnfl is generally ingenious and i would probably just vote for that bord altogether

for me, oink invites and uppers tie for second

Two threads I forgot to nominate which really should be on that list.

Taking sides:Madonna or Janet Jackson

Jay-Z /Nas hip-hop throw down? and other throw downs

Madonna/Jackson is actually up there on the ballot.

can you make us a 1-10 weighted voting type of poll plz

Madonna/Jackson is actually up there on the ballot, oh yes, I missed it. Now that makes my voting decision all the harder.

You really DID leave out "aw".

BOYCOTTING POLL

aw is shit

So you did a prejudging session?

i kinda like it really

<3

There's something kind of depressing about this thread, like watching a slide-show of my summer vacation.

i think i'm the only person in the world who finds neither the couch thread nor the "so not gonna happen" thread funny

so not gonna happen = 2 crepey altho gr80 sold it really well

ohhh shit another good one was mandee's 'guys in my area' thread
