A while ago someone posted a diagram that showed which nationality the people from various countries think are gay (for example, Britons think the French are gay, Finns think Swedes are gay, etc), but I can't remember what thread it was in. Can anyone find this?
― Tuomas, Wednesday, 7 July 2010 17:23 (fifteen years ago)
ill summarize it instead: everyone thinks finns are gay

the thread where people (briefly?) discussed some composition that for earlier (1970s or so?) recordings had the appeal of having the orchestra at the limits of their ability and just about holding it together, while today's performance are much more stable because orchestras have gotten technically better.
anyone who remembers based on that is a real viking.

mm no. As I recall it was a bit of a diversion in the middle of a semi-related topic, so I'm kinda banking on someone having a very precise memory.
― Merdeyeux, Friday, 30 July 2010 08:56 (fifteen years ago)
still can't find it but I did find this awesome post by Mark S in my searching: The Cult of the New? a topic to stick in the bookmarks for later reading, that one.

What abt that one WDYLL thread (I think it was WDYLL) from ~2 years ago where a female ILXor posted a picture of herself sitting in a hotel room and then like a dozen people made various shops of it, and when she came back a day or two later she was just like "OMG guys, what the fuck"

There was a music thread recently where there was a brief discussion of indie records with cats on the cover - I think the Wavves record and the Best Coast record were posted and then I posted Smog - Knock Knock.

The thread I would like to see again, that is gone and even if it was there, probably most of the hilarious pictures would be missing was a thread about Albania from quite a few years back.
I'm not so sure that wasn't the funniest thread I ever read on this site.
― earlnash, Wednesday, 4 August 2010 03:46 (fifteen years ago)
how many threads about albania could we possibly have?
Albanians
lots of pictures, don't know about hilarious though.
― koogs, Wednesday, 4 August 2010 08:58 (fifteen years ago)
I could swear I started a thread once that asked about a video I saw in eighth grade social studies class about a Canadian dance troupe of men wearing derbies and stomping side to side...I uploaded a (bad) picture I drew and everything. Would like to see that thread OR know the name of that dance.
― fear mongrels (Abbott), Sunday, 15 August 2010 02:57 (fifteen years ago)
wasn't that the thread where elvis telecom posted lots of pictures about the President of Albania back then? and made a lot of funny snarky comments?!?

Abbott - I believe this is what u r searchin' 4...
What is that kind of dance from Canada where a bunch of Magritte-character-lookinh guys stomp side to side quickly while leaning in that direction?
― there are so few places i can wear my jester costume (Ned Trifle II), Sunday, 15 August 2010 06:51 (fifteen years ago)
Never did find the name of the dance though...

i think abbott once started a thread about needing to do things and just not doing them forever and ever, but i forgot what it is called

Semi-deliberately puting things off until it is almost too late to do them and then you become afraid to do them and then you basically never leave your house out of fear...uh...c/d, I guess?

thanks!

last night i was looking for a thread that was something like "sounds like 80s roxy", where we talked about lots of 80s adult pop along the lines of avalon and the blue nile, does anyone remember it?
― lao gan ma (r1o natsume), Thursday, 9 September 2010 13:34 (fifteen years ago)
sounds like late period Roxy Music?
― Tuomas, Thursday, 9 September 2010 21:43 (fifteen years ago)

request for ILM poll thread where the options were the songtitles from some grindcore band's album, all of which were florid descriptions of the torture and death of Republicans and/or other world leaders
lolled heartily but have never heard of the band before or since

I remember some exchange where Momus typed out some pretty lengthy thought experiment on 'what if men had three penises, one for peeing, one for ejaculating, and one for peeing? here are some implications" and after it someone said "yeah that's how women are built" only they said it in a really pithy way. That exchange come to me in my daydreams, it's always very funny to me, and reading it would be a real treat.
― The Ten Things I Hate About Commandments (Abbbottt), Saturday, 16 October 2010 02:39 (fifteen years ago)
so 2 for peeing and one for ejaculating???
― (♥_♥) (roxymuzak), Saturday, 16 October 2010 03:06 (fifteen years ago)
oh he said the third was for orgasming, clearly I have my priorities straight.

so you ejaculate & orgasm out of different dicks?

― arby's, Saturday, 16 October 2010 03:11 (fifteen years ago)
so you play with one dick and stuff comes out the other (or possible out of both of the others)?
