I like to think I was ridiculing them. I apologise if it didn't come across that way.

― Alba (Alba), Sunday, 22 August 2004 17:05 (twenty-one years ago)

if it makes you feel any better, I don't find kim particularly attractive.

― RJG (RJG), Sunday, 22 August 2004 17:05 (twenty-one years ago)

It's gotten very stupid :(

I'm sorry you are?

― the neurotic awakening of s (blueski), Sunday, 22 August 2004 17:09 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm Alba. What?

― Alba (Alba), Sunday, 22 August 2004 17:10 (twenty-one years ago)

I think you should get back to doing the ILM top 50s.

― Alba (Alba), Sunday, 22 August 2004 17:10 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm stuck on that again - also i made another mistake!

― the neurotic awakening of s (blueski), Sunday, 22 August 2004 17:11 (twenty-one years ago)

You're incompetent. Can you email my mailup account with the comments you want from me?

― Alba (Alba), Sunday, 22 August 2004 17:12 (twenty-one years ago)

failed you stevem.

I've been resisting posting about how lovely Kim, Roxy and Teeny (to take the last three women to put up pics here) are because I thought I was in danger of crossing the line into creepiness, if I haven't already. It's clear that such timidity does not cross everyone's minds.

It may be hard to tell but they're actually blue (Elizathbeth Arden - thank god for the flexy arms that don't break easily). I feel pressured to replace them with the standard issue ILX glasses.

Yeah, mine are gold but the frames are pretty much the same shape, etc. And of course mine are the cheap non-flexy kind.

― Leon Czolgosz (Nicole), Sunday, 22 August 2004 17:51 (twenty-one years ago)

This reminds me I'm due for new frames in a couple of weeks. Flexy or not, hmmm...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 22 August 2004 18:09 (twenty-one years ago)

You are required to buy the standard issue emo ilx frames, it's in the new FAQ.

― Leon Czolgosz (Nicole), Sunday, 22 August 2004 18:11 (twenty-one years ago)

this creepy thing is stupid. i find the whole guilt thing far more disturbing. there is nothing wrong with telling people they are attractive (or some other quality), especially when they've posted a picture of themselves up with surely SOME hope that they'll attract compliments. i suppose the problem is some people get it more than others and that can be disheartening for some but such is life. there's also the repetition thing - same people on these threads every time, it's like either 'OK you're hot, we get it!' - but i don't think anyone here is THAT ego-centric and it's good natured really.

Freakish!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Sunday, 22 August 2004 18:17 (twenty-one years ago)

You have to grow sideburns as well Ned.

Are my frames standard issue? I think I will get new frames soon too.

― jel -- (jel), Sunday, 22 August 2004 18:30 (twenty-one years ago)

Nonsense.

Well fuckin' no one (apart from Rox noticing my bass!) commented on my last one, so er... I don't know just 'ow to feel right now, as they say.

Eh whatever.

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 22 August 2004 23:07 (twenty-one years ago)

Also, what SteveM said.

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 22 August 2004 23:08 (twenty-one years ago)

I met the standard-issue ILX frames halfway, but I'm not sure how I feel about it. I think my old ones might have been more me.

I thought we were sending up that trend. Well, I was, anyway...

― Andrew (enneff), Monday, 23 August 2004 01:30 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh you say that *now*... ;)

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 23 August 2004 01:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Kim, you're pretty cool, but the joke is not on or about you, it's on us and the whole ilx WDYLL weirdness thing. So, uh, don't feel weird.

― Andrew (enneff), Monday, 23 August 2004 01:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh you say that *now*... ;)

My first comments were serious, but the rest were (I thought) obviously ridiculous hyperbole.

― Andrew (enneff), Monday, 23 August 2004 01:32 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't feel bad about thinking Kim is beautiful and saying so, I feel bad that she asked us to lay off and we didn't.

― Harold Media (kenan), Monday, 23 August 2004 01:38 (twenty-one years ago)

bingo.

― Kim (Kim), Monday, 23 August 2004 02:52 (twenty-one years ago)

I thought it was an okay joke.

sorry, if it actually bothered you, kim.

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 23 August 2004 02:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, I'm sorry too. No harm intended, Kim.

― Andrew (enneff), Monday, 23 August 2004 03:42 (twenty-one years ago)

But hey look on the bright side Andrew, thanks to your comment we all got to see Ned done up like Victoria Regina. As it were.

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 23 August 2004 05:30 (twenty-one years ago)

i've actually been secretly waiting for that since i found ilx.
thank you andrew¡

― dyson (dyson), Monday, 23 August 2004 05:35 (twenty-one years ago)

fwiw, it was the facetiousness in combination with genuine responses that escalated it to the point of real discomfort. Michael Jones' original compliment was actually a very nice one (so he shouldn't feel bad). In any case, it's fine.

In other news, I have a somewhat bizarre photo for you of Mr Noodles reffing soccer yesterday, wherein it appears that he has developed the power to levitate the ball and stupify all the opponents.

― Kim (Kim), Monday, 23 August 2004 10:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Even though I hate football, that is a brilliant photo.

Coz it looks less like a football, and more like a bizarre UFO that Noodles has made apear by the power of his clenched fists like a manifestation of his rage!!!

― Super-Masonic Black Hole (kate), Monday, 23 August 2004 10:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I have seen a couple of Noodles' comments on the footie threads but I didn't know he was a ref!

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Monday, 23 August 2004 10:26 (twenty-one years ago)

(Thanks, Kim. I was beginning to feel I'd strayed into rather dubious territory. I try not to do the whole 'Phwoar! Hott pic! etc' thing with people I don't know.)

Dastoor up thread: Phwoar! Hott pic!

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Monday, 23 August 2004 10:35 (twenty-one years ago)

at first i thought that was noodles' belly!

― mookieproof (mookieproof), Monday, 23 August 2004 14:31 (twenty-one years ago)

y'all can tell me how hott i am, if you like.

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 23 August 2004 14:53 (twenty-one years ago)

although somehow i look kind of fat in that one.

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 23 August 2004 14:53 (twenty-one years ago)

about 37 degrees celsius by the look of it

― Porkpie (porkpie), Monday, 23 August 2004 14:59 (twenty-one years ago)

that is scarily close. okay you've creeped me out now.

no more discussions on my temperature please.

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 23 August 2004 15:01 (twenty-one years ago)

Can we comment on how loud that shirt is?

― chrisco (chrisco), Monday, 23 August 2004 15:34 (twenty-one years ago)

pardon? I can't hear you, something incredibly loud is blocking out all other sound

― Porkpie (porkpie), Monday, 23 August 2004 15:38 (twenty-one years ago)

haha
