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

homosexual II, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 18:53 (eighteen years ago)

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.

Tuomas, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 18:59 (eighteen years ago)

to be fair, you were in a shopping cart

ghost rider, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 19:00 (eighteen years ago)

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

ailsa, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 19:01 (eighteen years ago)

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.

Tuomas, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 19:06 (eighteen years ago)

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

Ms Misery, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 19:20 (eighteen years ago)

GUYS: Have you worn a bra?

Ned Trifle II, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 19:26 (eighteen years ago)

Amongst many other distinctive threads.

Ned Trifle II, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 19:26 (eighteen years ago)

Were you wearing a bra at the time, Tuomas?

The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 19:36 (eighteen years ago)

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.

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 19:55 (eighteen years ago)

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

Tuomas, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 19:59 (eighteen years ago)

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

ailsa, Tuesday, 26 June 2007 20:12 (eighteen years ago)

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.

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.

Aimless, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 00:01 (eighteen years ago)

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.

Trayce, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 00:18 (eighteen years ago)

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

Trayce, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 00:19 (eighteen years ago)

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.

Pleasant Plains, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 00:40 (eighteen years ago)

alla y'all

one way or the other, good bad AND indifferent

emergent transformation - from the bottom up.

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.

onimo, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 09:50 (eighteen years ago)

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

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

Oh wait.

Trayce, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 12:40 (eighteen years ago)

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

g-kit, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 12:46 (eighteen years ago)

There's probably a collective noun.

A Sundae Of Tuomaii?

onimo, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 14:15 (eighteen years ago)

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

RJG, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 23:50 (eighteen years ago)

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

Pleasant Plains, Thursday, 28 June 2007 04:50 (eighteen years ago)

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

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 28 June 2007 05:22 (eighteen years ago)

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

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 28 June 2007 05:23 (eighteen years ago)

Feel free to post the pic, RJG.

Tuomas, Thursday, 28 June 2007 06:08 (eighteen years ago)

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

RJG, Thursday, 28 June 2007 11:01 (eighteen years ago)

Were you expecting a flooding or something, Tuomas?

nathalie, Thursday, 28 June 2007 11:05 (eighteen years ago)

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

Beth Parker, Thursday, 28 June 2007 13:03 (eighteen years ago)

Was that pic taken on the road we met, RJG? I don't remember you taking a photo.

Tuomas, Thursday, 28 June 2007 13:54 (eighteen years ago)

that mountain looks steep and treacherous, you are all very brave.

Ms Misery, Thursday, 28 June 2007 14:02 (eighteen years ago)

I can't believe I was only mentioned twice.

acrobat, Thursday, 28 June 2007 14:12 (eighteen years ago)

I should note that this surely definitively settles the 'fake Tuomas' question, yes?
