HOW THE HELL DOES THAT HAPPEN.

It helps to leave your computer and go to Spain.

nathalie, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 09:24 (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.

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.

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

He's stalking you.

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

I can't believe I was only mentioned twice.

ken c, Thursday, 28 June 2007 14:10 (eighteen years ago)

omg

g-kit, Thursday, 28 June 2007 14:11 (eighteen years ago)

swygart.

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

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

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 28 June 2007 14:15 (eighteen years ago)

Not if RJG (or Cathy) is Fake Tuomas?

aldo, Thursday, 28 June 2007 14:24 (eighteen years ago)

It's a tangled web, Ned.

John Justen, Thursday, 28 June 2007 14:25 (eighteen years ago)

I vote that John should decide the issue, in the style of Solomon, by ordering someone chopped in half.

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 28 June 2007 14:29 (eighteen years ago)

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

yes, I thought I may as well take a photograph, whether you were you or not you

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

it is a mountain, though

RJG, Thursday, 28 June 2007 16:09 (eighteen years ago)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montju%C3%AFc

Actually, it seems it is merely a "hill". I was confused by the "Mont" part of the name, so I thought it was a mountain.

Tuomas, Thursday, 28 June 2007 18:50 (eighteen years ago)

hmm

Results 1 - 10 of about 80,900 for montjuic mountain. (0.25 seconds)

Results 1 - 10 of about 42,600 for montjuic hill. (0.12 seconds)

does the time difference make a difference?

RJG, Thursday, 28 June 2007 18:57 (eighteen years ago)

Unless it is a Scottish trick, amirite?

Also, Tuomas has the same lower half as Laurel.

Also here are Ian and me in 2002:

So I'm half real at least?

Tuomas, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:07 (eighteen years ago)

what a din

RJG, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:08 (eighteen years ago)

s1ocki, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:08 (eighteen years ago)

JW is the Third Full Head.

onimo, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:10 (eighteen years ago)

they had the transformative power of being funny

strongohulkington, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:20 (eighteen years ago)

and/or intelligent

strongohulkington, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:20 (eighteen years ago)

strongohulkington, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:20 (eighteen years ago)

hooooooowl

strongohulkington, Thursday, 28 June 2007 19:20 (eighteen years ago)

are you sure?

The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall, Thursday, 28 June 2007 20:01 (eighteen years ago)

The obvious answers for me would be John Justen, Fluffy Bear, Sara R-C, naturallaw-dp and subgenius, seeing as they were all either a) in my elementary school/middle school/high school posse, or b) my older brother.

HI DERE, Thursday, 28 June 2007 20:09 (eighteen years ago)

your brother posts to ilx now???

strongohulkington, Thursday, 28 June 2007 20:15 (eighteen years ago)

i'm not sure which is more surreal - the photo or the story itself. clearly this mountain-hill is where WORLD FAP will take place.

gabbneb, Thursday, 28 June 2007 20:19 (eighteen years ago)

He posted to ILM for a while, Jess! Scan the hip-hop threads for one-liners from naturalaw-dp; that's him.

HI DERE, Thursday, 28 June 2007 20:19 (eighteen years ago)

that was great, when we met tuomas by chance. meeting pete in paris by chance was great too. I wonder if in the next european city we visit we will run into geir hongro.

it looked like a mountain to me.

Cathy, Friday, 29 June 2007 14:40 (eighteen years ago)

I went up Montjuic when I was in Barcelona a month ago. Didn't see any ilxors though. It's definitely a hill. It also has escalators going up it, but not all the way up.

Grandpont Genie, Friday, 29 June 2007 14:45 (eighteen years ago)

I think it's a mountain or a hill

RJG, Friday, 29 June 2007 15:00 (eighteen years ago)

i'm not sure which is more surreal - the photo or the story itself.
