Say Something Nice About Your Fellow ILE'ers

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

At the request of the wise Samson, I am continuing this thread from its ILM equivalent. Title explains itself.

My answer is the same as on ILM; Kate, Nathalie and Di Smith are goddesses, and Mark S, Dr C, Anthony and Robin C are gods. Why? Because they are.

― Marcello Carlin, Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Marcello is a very witty man whose company can make unbearably dull postrock-emo bands seem bearable!

I want to say nice things about all the people on ILE that I love, but I've got to process some invoices now. I will return at random intervals and drop in and say things like "Chris P making crushing fun!!!"

― kate, Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:17 (twenty-three years ago)

Well I'm going to repeat what I said on the other thread, namely:

The following are all friendly, informative, insightful, wise and/or funny (as are 95% of people here): nabisco, mark s, Tom, Marcello, M Matos, Ned, dave q.

And I'm going to add Martin Skidmore to that list.

― James Ball (James Ball), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:19 (twenty-three years ago)

Lawrence Kansas made me laugh.

I like the heated discussions twixt Amateurist and nabisco. They make me feel dumb.

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:20 (twenty-three years ago)

Well, I feel strangely calm and happy when I read posts by, to name a few: Tom, jel, Martin, nabisco, Nick Southall, Nicole and Emma (all people I haven't met; the ones I have met are also great in any number of ways).

― Archel (Archel), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:24 (twenty-three years ago)

I always like reading Gareth's posts and he gave me some useful advice about work once which I really value. Cheers Gareth!

― MarkH (MarkH), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:32 (twenty-three years ago)

everyone is so nice here.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:36 (twenty-three years ago)

Suzy = Something Nice
Ned = Something Nice
Mark S. = Something Nice
Pashmina = Something Nice
Sarah McLusty = Something Nice
Nicole = Something Nice
Dan Perry = SOMETHING NAUGHTY!!!!

― kate, Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:38 (twenty-three years ago)

i focus more on ilm these days, but i still love you all!

― weasel diesel (K1l14n), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Dan Perry is the American me.
Oh - you mean something nice.

Er - Jerry The Nipper spoils for a fight in such a lovely way, and Felicity is naturally attractive to squirrls and other ILEors.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:50 (twenty-three years ago)

i will pick one for now: j.lu, you are sweet.

i tried to make a list of all the ilxers who have made me fall in love with them, but it was ridiculously long.

― di smith (lucylurex), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 10:56 (twenty-three years ago)

Jerry The Nipper does the best Avril Lavigne impression ever.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 11:27 (twenty-three years ago)

And you do the best Axl Rose and Slash combined!

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 11:50 (twenty-three years ago)

I'd say something smutty about hstencil, but I'd be accused of Crotch Talking again!

― kate, Wednesday, 26 March 2003 11:52 (twenty-three years ago)

your all the shiznit. fo shizzle.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 12:43 (twenty-three years ago)

Liz Daplyn has a way of phrasing her posts that never fails to make me smile.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 12:48 (twenty-three years ago)

Mr. Stencil, Di, Gareth, Mel, JBR, Alex in SF, SeanSF, Rosemary, Ed, Anthony, and even Mllar when he's not playing up the comic effect are all excellent chat mates and make my post school hours gleefully wasteful.

― That Girl (thatgirl), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 12:51 (twenty-three years ago)

People who are great on ILE: Mark S*, Dan, Ned, Jerry the Nipper, J0hn Darn1elle, Ms Laura, N.

ILE People who are really nice in person: Chris Brassica, Vicky, Al Ewing, Alan, Emma, Carsmile Steve, jel, lixi, Daplyn, RickyT.

People who rule in both arenas: Tom, Starry, Pete, Tim Hopkins, Martin Skidmore, the pinefox, and my Dublin Posse.

People who are probably in the above category, but I haven't met despite attending two London FAPs: Marcello, Kate, Suzy.

* mark s is almost certainly nice in person, but I came over all shy on Friday and didn't say much, and then got mortified when before leaving he said it was nice to meet me.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:35 (twenty-three years ago)

i love how these threads invariably turn into "i will talk up the people you know i already like from 10 other threads"

i hate you all equally

― jess (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:37 (twenty-three years ago)

I love you all. You help me get through my day, and for that, I thank you.

NYC ILXors have been remarkably friendly and fun, and I'm glad that I took the chance in meeting you all. Even Ally ; )

― hstencil, Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:38 (twenty-three years ago)

ha ha Andrew doesn't think I'm nice in person!!

― alext (alext), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:40 (twenty-three years ago)

Jess likes George Benson, therefore he's cool.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:40 (twenty-three years ago)

I've said it before and I'll say it again: jel is the most adorable person on ILx.

What is with all the mutual masterbation going on lately? I just wanted to use the phrase "mutual masterbation", carry on. jess is right, compliment someone out of the blue who you don't normally have big ups backslappin' with. I could tell everyone 40 times over right now how much Tracer Hand and Yancey and Matos rule but EVERYONE KNOWS I hang out with those people.

I'd like to say that di usually posts things that I want to say and then go, "No, cos then they'll all get their panties in a wad again" and I think that's a great trait, and Suzy and Ed seem like right cool, smart peeps who'd be cool to have a night with.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:41 (twenty-three years ago)

It's impossible for me to create a list without leaving someone out, so I shan't. Y'all rock. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:43 (twenty-three years ago)

Ned: 4,567,345 days without an insult to an ILxor!

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:44 (twenty-three years ago)

And counting! Er, I guess.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:45 (twenty-three years ago)

I had a rockin' DC FAP with j. lu, Aaron "The Gross Man" Grossman, and Sarah "McLusty" McLusky. DC/VA/MD REPRAZENT! Thanks for yr hospitality.

― Nick A. (Nick A.), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:46 (twenty-three years ago)

fuck, thanks ally. i didn't know you felt that way. :-)

― di smith (lucylurex), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:48 (twenty-three years ago)

Y'know, I'm a totally funny dude. I make people laugh. No, really, I do. You guys don't think that's important. But dudes, it totally is.

― Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:49 (twenty-three years ago)

no horace you're right. it is.

― jess (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:51 (twenty-three years ago)

i don't like any of you, but you all dress real sharp, yo.

― g-kit (g-kit), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 15:54 (twenty-three years ago)

D'oh! okay, all my niggaz from Saturday are in "really nice in person", except for TomStarryPeteHopkins.

And Dave Q is great on ILE

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:06 (twenty-three years ago)

Like the Special Olympics, you are all winners.

― Nicole (Nicole), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Except the cheats who pretend to have a disability from Spain.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:10 (twenty-three years ago)

How can a disability come from Spain? Falling off a balcony in Ibiza or something, maybe?

― Nicole (Nicole), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:12 (twenty-three years ago)

Disabilities from Spain usually involve slurred speech, a complete lack of coordination and inability to walk in a straight line, and usually occur between the hours of 11pm and 1am.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:15 (twenty-three years ago)

and tagging along like a lost dog behind USA and UK

― Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:16 (twenty-three years ago)

Those are Spanish Disabilities, which is an entirely different matter.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:16 (twenty-three years ago)

jerry the nipper & the pinefox sing passable magnetic field covers.

tim hopkins once found a CD of a Chicago rapper [No I.D.] in London, that I couldn't even find in Chicago, bought it, and mailed it to me!

― phil-two (phil-two), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:18 (twenty-three years ago)

jess is right, compliment someone out of the blue who you don't normally have big ups backslappin' with.

I did, I think. And no one slaps my back here normally, but I have people being nice to me in real life which I value more tbh.

(However, add to the above Sarah McLusky, Donna and Chrises V. and Piuma.)

― Archel (Archel), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:20 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh hey! I like g-kit! And I like Jess and I like Lady Di! Everyone else I like I think I've met! And Nicole. And Josh! *Especially* sloshy Joshy. And probably some others. Udders.

― Sarah (starry), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:24 (twenty-three years ago)

Mr Noodles has just made Red Red Wine get stuck in my head so quite frankly he does not make THE CUT.

― Sarah (starry), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:34 (twenty-three years ago)

Starry Sarah can out dance-dance-revolution anyone here, and has very nicely conditioned hair.

― phil-two (phil-two), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:35 (twenty-three years ago)

Loads of you make me feel dumb and ill-informed. This is a good thing because it makes me want/attempt to become better-informed and grow my BRANE bigger, possibly with drugX0r.

I like everyone I've met through ILX, and not just because I knew a fair few of you before due to a SINISTER past. Mostly you are highly accomplished at talking rubbish (in realitee and also online), and from me there is no higher accolade than to note this.

Purely selfish: you take my mind off the inane gossip and general horror of the workplace, and focus it on world events/kittens/what randy buggers you all are.

― Liz :x (Liz :x), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:35 (twenty-three years ago)

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:48 (twenty-three years ago)

And then they all lez up!

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:58 (twenty-three years ago)

Obviously I like Phil-Two, the number of times we've slept together would hopefully confirm that...

I was just thinking earlier that my hair looks nice too!

― Sarah (starry), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 16:59 (twenty-three years ago)

haha nickalicious thinks I'm so nice, he listed me twice! (ps I loved you from first site on the name nickalicious alone)

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 26 March 2003 17:02 (twenty-three years ago)

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 1 April 2003 19:28 (twenty-three years ago)

i like most people here, but a few of the people whose posts i really like are: Gareth, i like how he always has sound advice to give, and doesn't end up sounding condescending. Ronan, Lara and N. all have great one-liners. i usually agree with Ed's posts, and he says things i want to say but waaayyy more articulatey. Di just totally rocks. Jel *is* totally adorable. Erik makes SUPER CUTE DRAWINGS! Starry Sarah has the best posting style and makes the most everyday things sound totally exciting, her posts are always totally great to read. Kate is totally cool, and she also makes me laugh lots.

i could probably go on, but i think that's enough for now!

― sand.y, Tuesday, 1 April 2003 22:52 (twenty-three years ago)

I guess I should say something about Bryan, he being the only person to accuse me of 'brilliance' in living memory. (He's wrong, but it was a good compliment.) So...

'Something nice.'

― ChristineSH (chrissie1068), Wednesday, 2 April 2003 13:41 (twenty-three years ago)

No fiver for you!

― Bryan (Bryan), Wednesday, 2 April 2003 13:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Well, if anyone else wants to send me money, I'll say something even nicer about them. I would offer sex too, but I'm trying to provide incentives here!

I get the feeling Surmounter is a very tidy and self-respecting guy who would be fun to go to a party with.

That is enormously reassuring.

― i'm shy (Abbott), Wednesday, 1 April 2009 20:16 (seventeen years ago)

I think you're probably right about Surmounter Abbott.

I think that Abbott is v smart and funny and would very much like to kiw her one day.

― ENBB, Wednesday, 1 April 2009 20:21 (seventeen years ago)

kiw???
