If people used scissors instead of toothbrushes, brushing one's teeth would be .04% more efficient.

Stupid people should be banned from sections of the internet.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Thursday, 21 November 2002 05:11 (twenty-three years ago)

sections?

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Thursday, 21 November 2002 05:24 (twenty-three years ago)

there are people with reprehensible opinions on ilx.

this thread is depressingly pigfuckish

― RickyT (RickyT), Thursday, 21 November 2002 10:30 (twenty-three years ago)

big brother is for people with no life.

― angela (angela), Thursday, 21 November 2002 11:13 (twenty-three years ago)

that's hardly controversial.

yes i have no life. what of it?

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 21 November 2002 11:22 (twenty-three years ago)

All "Just Say No" anti-drug ads are better films than 'Requiem for a Dream'.

― Keith McD (Keith McD), Thursday, 21 November 2002 11:23 (twenty-three years ago)

i mean two years ago i would have said exactly the same thing about bb. except then i did have a life. now i don't.

what harm does my not having a life do to you? is it, like, illegal?

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 21 November 2002 11:26 (twenty-three years ago)

so yes maybe your opinion is controversial because it got me going. and i try not to use cliches like "get a life" or similar because now i know what it's like from the other side.

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 21 November 2002 11:28 (twenty-three years ago)

i wasn't intending to get at you or insult you marcello. i was reminded of my opinion on big brother when i noticed the bbc news website had a sidebar about it, i came to post on this thread and coincidentally you had posted about bb. perhaps i should have been more tactful and not posted my opinion directly below yours. apologies for any offence caused.

― angela (angela), Thursday, 21 November 2002 11:35 (twenty-three years ago)

marcello, she didn't mean anything by it. oh sth controversial; i am going to send those CDs (i am being honest!)

― nathalie (nathalie), Thursday, 21 November 2002 11:39 (twenty-three years ago)

hey that's ok angie. don't worry about it. things are just pretty bad at the moment and i do tend to get over-sensitive even at the best of times. so, apologies accepted :-)

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 21 November 2002 11:41 (twenty-three years ago)

however for calling me "angie" i'm not sure i'll ever forgive you!

― angela (angela), Thursday, 21 November 2002 11:46 (twenty-three years ago)

eminem should be tried at the hague for crimes against humanity.

― angelo (angelo), Thursday, 21 November 2002 12:32 (twenty-three years ago)

dr dre should sign milosevic.

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 21 November 2002 13:22 (twenty-three years ago)

1) Basic Instinct is actually a really good film.

2) Harry Potter is a kids book and adults reading it are morons

3) LOTR is Harry Potter for grown-ups (and thus still shit)

4) Freedom of speech won't feed my children

5) David Elleray's denial of Chesterfield a legitimate 3rd goal in the 1997 FA Cup semi-final was an act of class war.

― Dave B (daveb), Thursday, 21 November 2002 13:28 (twenty-three years ago)

I wuv Sarah McLusty.
Wait - that's not contrcversial, is it?
I mean, everyone agrees with nabisco, right??

"Now this looks like a job for me
So everybody just follow me

'Cos it feels so empty without me

Instead of spending fortunes keeping psychopathic serial murderers incarcerated for life, or killing them and thus bringing guilt upon ourselves, we should remove them from our lives, our efforts and our social costs by exiling them to solitary existence on an island/enclosure where they *can* manage to survive if they spend *every* waking minute of the rest of their lives searching for food/water supplies - until they then die of some health ailment which could have been treated by the society they tried to fuck over, and which has hypothecated the money saved from their incarceration into care for the elderly, the infirm, and the unfortunate.
'Caring Vengeance' haha

I'm not the greatest person in the universe ever.

I am the greatest person in the universe ever.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 21 November 2002 18:37 (twenty-three years ago)

How is that controversial, Dan?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 21 November 2002 18:38 (twenty-three years ago)

Not everyone pays me homage. YET.

thirteen years pass...

hashtags are more toxic to the US political climate than all the corporate money in the world

The left is unhealthily obsessed with moral purity.

man alive otm

― Treeship, Monday, 30 November 2015 15:58 (ten years ago)

~~the left~~ a lot of my leftist friends who post a lot on facebook and a few writers they admire, basically

― on entre O.K. on sort K.O. (man alive), Monday, 30 November 2015 16:04 (ten years ago)

~~the left~~ are the worst

ban strollers

― droit au butt (Euler), Monday, 30 November 2015 16:06 (ten years ago)

xp- actually Hurting, iirc i follow Doug Henwood on facebook because of a post you made on ilx about how he's fun to follow as a cipher into intra-left squabbles. too hooked on hatereading to unfollow :(

― flopson, Monday, 30 November 2015 16:07 (ten years ago)

#mindBlown

― xyzzzz__, Monday, 30 November 2015 16:13 (ten years ago)

xp I generally like Henwood, he just has a lot of weird hangers-on.

― on entre O.K. on sort K.O. (man alive), Monday, 30 November 2015 16:21 (ten years ago)

ah that wasn't clear, i meant hate-reading his comment threads and intra-left squabbles he links to. i like henwood a lot, even if he's a little too partisan/hard left for my taste. i actually met him under hilarious circumstances in montreal last summer. he was tweeting about feeling embarrassed to be seen reading HRC's memoir (which he was reading for the review that turned into his controversially designed book) at a montreal cafe, and i looked over and saw him at a neighbouring table with the book on his lap!

― flopson, Monday, 30 November 2015 16:49 (ten years ago)

Wow @ 2002 opinions. I've been pretty solidly pro-choice and anti-death penalty for a long time.

― EveningStar (Sund4r), Monday, 30 November 2015 17:14 (ten years ago)

not every shooter is a terrorist

― flappy bird, Monday, 30 November 2015 17:15 (ten years ago)

pretty uncontroversial there. if you're talking about the planned parenthood thing, almost no one in the media is calling him a terrorist. he's just a disgruntled gentle guy who was having a bad day and just happened to be near planned parenthood. these things happen

― Karl Malone, Monday, 30 November 2015 17:20 (ten years ago)

Such a hapless goofball. You can't help but love him!

― The Squirrel Who Punched His Dad In The Neck (Old Lunch), Monday, 30 November 2015 17:28 (ten years ago)

i don't know if this is controversial or even an opinion but i do believe that if pro-life activists believe what they say about abortion is true (that it is literally murder and there has literally been one of history's greatest genocides going on in the US for years) there should be way more clinic shootings. think about the kind of behavior you would condone if you felt it was designed to stymie an actual genocide. otoh from the beginning of this year: "If we were in 30's Berlin we'd all be Nazi's," so maybe not.

― Mordy, Monday, 30 November 2015 18:02 (ten years ago)

Not everything in the respective threads are racist/sexist/antisemitism

― MONKEY had been BUMMED by the GHOST of the late prancing paedophile (darraghmac), Monday, 30 November 2015 18:07 (ten years ago)

how dare you

― Mordy, Monday, 30 November 2015 18:09 (ten years ago)

"otoh from the beginning of this ~~year~~ thread" i meant
