which ilx poster has had the most transformative effect on your life?

omg!!!! that tuomas + RJG + Cathy story is incredible!!!

in answer to the original question, TEH AMAZE RANDY

cosmic schefter

Becky L.

steve shasta/gygax! probably just cuz he's the one I've seen/hung out with the most

hahaha "are you finnish??"
that is great

we did attempt "tuomas??" a couple of times but he had earphones in his ears

thankfully, it was tuomas, eventually, and not just some random dude probably having to think "why are these two people yelling 'are you finished???' at me??"

hooray, i've been pronouncing tuomas' name correctly!

rjg, you should have just tackled him, that would have made the story better

I'm not sure how you even recognized me, the road was like 20 meters wide. You must have better sight than me, I never would've recognized some random dude on the other side of the road as an ILXor based only on photos posted here.

to be fair, you were in a shopping cart

Did you recognise them as RJG and Cathy after they approached you (and before they told you)?

Then again, I'm pretty bad at remembering anyone's faces. Just the other day some girl came to talk to me on the tram, but I had no idea who she was, so I just tried to pretend I remembered her, and I was thinking "Who the hell is she? I hope she isn't someone I've fooled around with and then forgotten..." It was only after I left the tram I remembered that she was someone I knew from the uni, I'd even stayed overnight at her place at a pyjama party.

No, I don't think so. Though RJG was wearing those same cool sunglasses he's posted pictures of, I might've recognized them.

I think you are rather distinctive in many ILX0Rs minds Tuomas.

GUYS: Have you worn a bra?

Amongst many other distinctive threads.

Were you wearing a bra at the time, Tuomas?

Oh yeah, that must've been it!

Tuomas, I met a girl at a party this weekend and we have a date tomorrow but I forget what she looks like.

Well, you just have to hope she still remembers you... ;)

nabs, momus and jon

Probably Ally C for getting me to go to Bowlie with him, thereby setting me on a path to ruin and mentalism.

Tough question for me - maybe Kim, without whom I would not have known about the bone church before going to the Czech Ruplic. Or maybe Barry.

bullshit

Beth Parker.

I cannot put my finger on any actual transformations she was wrought in me, but it seems reasonable just to assume them and let the details emerge over time.

I am completetly staggered that 2 Scottish ILXors and a Finnish one can completely randomly meet on a fucking mountain in Spain. HOW THE HELL DOES THAT HAPPEN.

(wait, RJG are you Scots or English? sorry. I think I am confusing myself, I'm hung over).

I see dudes who look like Tuomas around all the time. I'm gonna have to start yelling "Are you Finnish?" more often.

My obvious answer to this thread is s.s. for, you know, marrying me and making the kid and all that.

alla y'all

one way or the other, good bad AND indifferent

emergent transformation - from the bottom up.

HOW THE HELL DOES THAT HAPPEN.

It helps to leave your computer and go to Spain.

We had about 14 Tuomasalikes staying next to us at ATP 06. I think they were Finnish.

Oh aye, I remember that. No shopping trolleys though.

Are you calling me a nerdy shut in!!!?? HOW DARE YOU!

Oh wait.

As soon as a I read that Tuomas story I had flashbacks of you mentioning your ATP Tuomaii (plural of Tuomas, no doubt)

There's probably a collective noun.

A Sundae Of Tuomaii?

I have a photo of tuomas I could post if he didn't object

Exactly what kind of photo of himself would Tuomas ever object to someone posting on the internet?

one of him fully dressed in a respectable situation ;_;

before he gets offended, i'd also object to such photos of myself being posted on the internet.

Feel free to post the pic, RJG.

I don't have any fully dressed in a respectable situation photos of the schef (adam schefter ha ha)

Were you expecting a flooding or something, Tuomas?

I must reciprocate Aimless's nomination. His poetry thread got me writing like crazy, jarring me out of my usual satiric prose rut.
