All our peeps are slowly defecting to the DC thread. ;_;

― dan m, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 19:54 (nineteen years ago)

That's what I was trying to say yesterday but did not want to be explicit. ;_;x2

we be boring?

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 19:58 (nineteen years ago)

hi guys you know what is depressing? midcentury dude literature. john updike is making me sad.

LOL. I didn't even read this before posting about Updike.

We should basically just combine the DC and Chicago threads.

― jaymc, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 19:59 (nineteen years ago)

Actually, Laurel posting on the DC thread is fine, since it's not like she has any particular allegiance to Chicago. And Kevin? Yeah, whatever, I dunno. It's the fact that Evan's posting there now that makes me all ;_;

― jaymc, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:00 (nineteen years ago)

And Horseshoe. She didn't come to our lady party either. ;_;

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:02 (nineteen years ago)

I think a one-week joint thread could be fun. Of course, this place is like crack for me and one week of cold turkey wouldn't be bad, either.

― Eazy, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:02 (nineteen years ago)

That would be a disaster. Think of all the references we'd have to 'splain to John.

― dan m, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:03 (nineteen years ago)

Nice to know I'm missed, but "whatever."

― Laurel, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:03 (nineteen years ago)

hi Chicago I still love you and I would have loved to go to lady party but I was having a panic attack week. :( I'm sorry, Amanda! when are we all going out drinking again, anyway?

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:03 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I dunno. I disappear in large groups. I guess it's fine. Carry on. Que sera sera. [sigh]

Sadly, as many of you may have noticed, I am not good at "going out drinking." I am good at small gatherings with few people.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:04 (nineteen years ago)

well, then, I shall have to come up with one of these small gatherings!!!

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:05 (nineteen years ago)

I should mention that I excel at "staying in and drinking"...

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:06 (nineteen years ago)

hey john, i was thinking about posting some football related news to the ilnfl board. do i have your permission?

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:07 (nineteen years ago)

Large groups, when they're good, essentially become a cluster of small groups anyway! It's just that there's room to circulate. I mean, that's pretty much what the Monday Night Drinking Club is all about.

― Laurel, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:07 (nineteen years ago)

We should bring Hot Dougs to Julia some Friday.

― Eazy, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:08 (nineteen years ago)

xp See, that's what I'm not good at. Tiring.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:09 (nineteen years ago)

YES HOT DOUGS!!!! CAN WE HAVE A SMALL GATHERING IN WHICH HOT DOUGS IS CONSUMED? ALSO, I OWE YOU A DOG AND SOME FRIES, ERIC!!!

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:11 (nineteen years ago)

If you visit, Amanda, we will install you in a chair at the corner of the bar with an order of veggie dumplings, and everyone will come to you. :D

― Laurel, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:11 (nineteen years ago)

That's more like it. I grew up attending fundraisers with my parents and hiding in the corner while they circulated and talked to like 150,000 people. All I wanted then and now is someone to sit behind the plant with me and tell secrets.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:11 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, and occasionally to sing karaoke.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:12 (nineteen years ago)

yes, karaoke + hot dougs + gathering.

beer goes without saying, I think.

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:12 (nineteen years ago)

Kevin, you can do whatever you like. I didn't mean for my post to come off the way you took it. I think maybe the key differences between you and Evan are that a) you still post on both threads and b) you've been posting on the DC thread almost since the beginning, it feels like. Whereas Evan used to post here and then he defected. Not that I actually care about any of this.

― jaymc, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:13 (nineteen years ago)

OMG AMANDA'S DAD IS SUNG MYUNG MOON.

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:14 (nineteen years ago)

Well, wherever people post is fine, I was just lamenting the current state of affairs. Maybe I will just take up residence on the NHL thread until the playoffs end.

― dan m, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:16 (nineteen years ago)

I AM DAUGHTER MOONY

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:17 (nineteen years ago)

Maybe I exaggerated, but still. Do not like large group events.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:17 (nineteen years ago)

Large = >4 people

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:17 (nineteen years ago)

you can read the dc thread all day long, with their odd little colloquialisms and their quaint pictures-posting customs, but sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came.

― kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:19 (nineteen years ago)

That doesn't count house parties, but you know what I mean.

― La Lechera, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:20 (nineteen years ago)

Ok going going gone have fun tootles.

Much as I hate to admit it, there's no way I'm not Cliff in this little metaphor.

― kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:24 (nineteen years ago)

there are many more women in CHILX thread than on Cheers.

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:24 (nineteen years ago)

and we are all way better than Kirstie Alley.

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:24 (nineteen years ago)

Dan is soooo Norm.

― kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:24 (nineteen years ago)

well, we can split the diff, not stick to one season. One of youse can be Diane, one can be Rebecca.

― kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:25 (nineteen years ago)

Fuck you! I am 100% Cliff.

― dan m, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:25 (nineteen years ago)

we are all way better than Diane + Rebecca put together.

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:26 (nineteen years ago)

(I have not met you, Julia, but I am 100% certain this applies to you, too.)

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:26 (nineteen years ago)

dan you're norm and you know it.

― kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:26 (nineteen years ago)

face your destiny.

― kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:26 (nineteen years ago)

Julia can be Lilith. I always had a thing for Lilith. :)

― kenan, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

Actually, I can totally see Dan as Norm. Everyone loves Dan.

― jaymc, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

kenan, i'll say you're woody based solely on both of you having a twang in your voice.

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

Wait. Wait. What's happening? Nobody posts on the Chicago thread anymore? Is it time for somebody to start an angry "regional threads are ruining ILX" thread to fire up our local pride?

Also, Hot Doug's delivery to Julia's is a brilliant idea.

I am totally Carla but without the kids.

― Jenny, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

Bebe Neuwirth is hot stuff. yeah, I forgot about Lilith. she can stay.

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

okay, Julia, is this okay with you? when can we make this hot doug's delivery happen?

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:28 (nineteen years ago)

― Eazy, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:28 (nineteen years ago)

I love Carla, but I don't know if she's good enough to be you, Jenny.

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 10 April 2007 20:28 (nineteen years ago)

jenny is carla. It's true. I will not hear a bad word said about carla.

kevin is sam, because he's so good with the ladiez.
