This is the thread where we ask people to dig up things on ILX we can't find

Does ilx have a thread for youtube video comments for old tracks that are people saying things like 'I played the bass on this track!' or 'the guy singing is my uncle!' and similar?

Thread where ppl were arguing over who was the first person to do that thing whereby you hold a Phil Collins album cover in front of your face with predictably humorous results?

lmao @ vinyl sleeve heads

?

A few of my pals invented this and I know the guy behind the Songs About Fucking sleeve

that's the one, thank you!

i cant find the thread for finding things on the internet but that images thats a screenshot of some guy on a message board saying some pretty celebrity lady is ugly overlayed w a picture of him and he is v unattractive

i have seen it used on ilxor.com before

grad dawg found it for me http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/210-would-not-bang

trying to find a post that said something along the lines of:
"people are against gay marriage because they envy the childless existence gays get to live."

Wasn't there a thread with a title like "recursive thread is recursive" that just consisted of endless links to itself? Did I dream that or did it have another title? Would have been in about 2003/4 or so.

what's that thread

it's about a certain sort of pronouncement people make where it's obviously supposed to be a no big deal kinda big deal (not a humblebrag exactly because it's not anything to do with an achievement or anything and not exactly a challop either)

it has an amazing sequence of posts by ice cr?m/lag∞n where he reformats these sorts of statement in accusatory 2nd person

one of my most enjoyed threads in the moment, would like to read again

"My mom thinks I'm cool" - the lamest boasts you've ever heard

oh nice, I found that thread but didn't think it was the one, thx!

didnt we have a photo thread that was called something like "90's hot" or "sexy 90's"

this one?

'90s HOT: A picture thread.

thanks! i guess the apostrophe placement was throwing me.

Thread about having your art appropriated by others uncredited for commercial purposes?

ruh roh, that doesn't sound fun.

btw, i need to find the thread to apologize for using 'ruh roh' multiple times within a week. i don't know what's wrong with me

Well, not my art. Just came across a relevant story.

oh thanks. that's on ILL. think I'll leave it alone.

some post from a bit ago about the evolution of ilx posters and it like starts w/ earnest posters and goes thru stages - just bumps, cryptic remarks, subboards only, etc

^Some are cycling through that loop indefinitely, though. So it's difficult to tell whence they came.

they're all the same 3-5 ppl repeating their tested cycle with different details

Dan reviewing Doctor Who novels in no particular order

looking for threads:

businesses with terribly formed names

your child is a psychopath

uh ok just the latter one now

The psychopath (children and otherwise) starts w that recent nyt article about early childhood psychopathy diagnosis. I'm not sure if that's the one u mean?

I did find the NYT article but not the thread.

eh whatever

search prompted by last night's viewing of "We Need to Talk About Kevin" which is kind of a nightmarish thing to watch as a parent. not that I suspect either of my children of being psychopaths

couldn't link before bc zing but i'm at home now so

Psychopaths (Adult and Otherwise)

local businesses with horribly formed "names"

oh nm

thread for posting about expressions/idioms that really annoy u?

Words, usages, and phrases that annoy the shit out of you...

is there a thread where people try to figure out the real meanings of frequently misunderstood/understood in multiple ways phrases like "do you like to party" and shit like that?

real = interlocutor's intended meaning

Is there a relatively non-jokey Best Posters/Most Valuable Posters thread on ILE?

j., right

where is the original post that says something like "forecast says 100% tittays"?

was there a thread about countries that no longer exist?

is there any one thread dedicated to terrible tv commercials?

Worst TV adverts of the moment

Q. where is the original post that says something like "forecast says 100% tittays"?

A.

where is the original post that says something like "forecast says 100% tittays"?

thanks!

xp... there was a post like that, right?! maybe ten years ago? and it got referenced a few times after...

you could be right, but I plugged in every variant of "tittays" I could think of and came up empty every time

i tried too... i'm obviously misremembering but someone posted a funny phrase like this during a discussion of summer weather.
