Posts you had second thought about and decided not to post - put them here

Gentlemen, gentlemen - there's no fighting in the war thread!

You're either a troll or a cunt but you've been here for far too long for the former so it must be the latter.

can totally hear that in Bono's voice tbh

I believe swearing gets posters banned.

first line of The A-posters' Creed?

that's Mr. Apollo to you, fool

Robberbandits: I've a (dead) empire outside

I said, "Fuck the vulgar Marxists, I've a tank outside
Fuck the Leninists, I have a tank outside
And fuck the working class, I've a tank outside
You're being taken for a ride, I've a tank outside
They said, "We don't believe you"
I said, "It's fuckin' true
Swapped communism for capital in 1992"
I don't need an empire, I just need more livin' space
And if you try to cramp my style, I'll shoot you in the face
"I don't need no facts - I own TV
You'll invade in style if you side with me"
And the soldiers ridin' over, their red flag flying high
I look the fuckers up and down and send them off to die

certainly butchered that zing with a double negative

Hitsville Ukraine

@Sufjan, the original:

"I don't pay no tax, no NCT
You'll arrive in style if you ride with me"

just a gentle reminder that ageism and ageist stereotypes are a bad scene and dumb too

This is, appropriately enough, a dogshit point

Will Smith and Vladimir Putin found out that it's not a good idea to attack a comedian.

lol

Good zing of a wise 1!

ilx turned into a "old men moaning about kids" site so slowly i barely noticed

no wait i did

I don’t understand why there are two threads complaining about annoying words and phrases tbh

i would refer my honourable friend to my previous statement

https://c.tenor.com/2uPTZEqzFzoAAAAC/edgeworth-anime.gif

I had the interesting experience of being complained about on here as a naive young person (!) by someone subsequently banned, quite a thing to read about yourself in your mid thirties I must say.

You are young (for ilx)

was there a point at which ILX did not bitch about feckless youth tbh

The Lily Allen thread? Oh wait...

in the good old days we bitched abt each other: "Use other words please."

(thread title contains notion that when whining abt a phrase annoying you, you must offer a stronger alternative or you are the problem)

QUOTE REDACTED

As a medical cannabis user who's just had my evening dose, this is the single weirdest and most fascinating post I've ever read. It makes no sense to me, yet it's worded brilliantly. I've read it at least fifteen times. I am completely enamoured with this short paragraph of perfect, meaningless text. Is this what all those people who rave about Murakami are talking about?

Maybe this should go in "use other words" but I am starting to dislike "package" when used about tranches of government funding or about a legislative agenda.

Mostly because I don't want to read a thousand articles about "Biden's package."

"Biden's package" sounds like a euphemism for something I don't want to envision.

Biden's enormous bundle

Joe Manchin is a chastity cage on Biden's package

C'mon, man

It's yuge

It's gonna be incredible.

Oh wait.

Listen Mac, I'll be a good boy for you.

Why did they kill that guy? Why did they kill him? Who was that guy? What was that guy? I thought he was with them. Wasn't he with them? Why would they kill him if he was with them? Oh, he wasn't really with them. I thought he was with them. It's a good thing they killed him

i keep coming back to the concept of interpellation in terms of taking responsibility in collective horizontally-organized work

realizing i have the longest post on about 30% of the threads i've posted on

we can c&p some scaruffi if it makes you feel better

🙄🙄🙄

zeppelin also probably more likely to put a gun to your head and _make_ you take them

i'm sorry if that's grossly tasteless and offensive, it's just been a long time since i've had to deal with classic rock loving Cis Dudes(tm)

I’ve never thought about this before, I don’t understand what the big fuss is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I Love Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

otm, ILM is a classic rock forum now

all the cool kids hang out in the peoples_pop twitter polls

they tend to be more engaging than what’s going on here these days, it’s true, especially the current Songs That Aren’t In English one

This is the absolute Platonic form of an ILM thread

i got take out from the neo-liberal burger place a few weeks ago. that thread is to ILM threads as the neo-liberal burger place burger is to burgers.
