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

I've got two, namely

That Doom feature in Wax Poetics was interesting. He was all like, "I'm just a regular guy

which I thought was too boring to post, and

GOD CUTTY WHY DON'T YOU QUIT

which was supposed to be a funny post on the lose weight thread, but I thought it might be interpreted as serious.

See also:

I keep deleting my posts before I post them!

yeah they're mostly me telling people off and i'm not going to post them here--i just write them out to feel better and then delete

I have posts I have second thoughts about posting in a posts you decided not to post thread!

Oh, you should post them here.

"#^&*$$%&*"

out of context: "searches for 'crepey' and 'ban' have provided me more than enough fodder"

now I'm having second thoughts about posting that ...

this is the turd (this is the turd) that the lord hath made (that the lord hath made)
i will rejoice (i will rejoice) and be glad in it (and be glad in it)

and imagine fozzy bear singing the parentheticals.

That phrase is interesting because it adjusts the emphasis so the sentence is more iambic. But it would have to because

I think I have second thoughts more than actual posts. I keep closing my window.

Ew!

Dammit, I did not need to see that.

Just realized there's a typo on the thread title.

Which is fitting.

Maybe, I've got no speakers hooked up right now.

I think you're all naive.

Timing of joke off. And

Doesn't seem passive aggressive.

i was gonna post on that glenn beck thread that i wished glenn beck would die, but then i kept thinking about how mean that is. plus, i may have already posted that on the glenn beck thread in the past.

I'm about to call my mother to ask her about Glenn Beck. I know she has his Christmas book, but I just want to know. She's a smart lady.

I was gonna post on the '"500 Days of Summer" thread that I thought it would make a good back story for Cobra Commander, but I didn't feel like searching for the thread, coz what if someone already made the comment? I'd have to do 'edit' 'find' 'cobra', and display all posts. So, I posted it on facebook anyway.

I bet no one made that joke, but, wait, are they both played by the same actor or something? Because if so, maybe someone did.

As ilxors we should just collectively stop discussing hype.

Why does this old thread consistently make it onto most read threads?

although my "plus" would have been, "that would just make him a martyr for assholes."

If this becomes a thread connection, I will probably not post it

barely able to see

I have been thinking it is October for a few days now.

why is that thread constantly in the most read threads list?

I don't know? It's got a woman in the title, but it's two years old and the reads are on-site reads. It doesn't make sense. The simpsons porn one only partly makes sense, but a lot of those reads are site reads too. Wait, I get that one, because it persists because of the most read threads page working in concert with google hits. But the other one with the girl I just don't get, unless it's a lesser version of the same phenomenon.

i just wonder if it's some quirk in the system. it's always there.

Those famous Unabomber types

oh, this is actually not a thread about the suggest ban system

I have had it up to here waiting for the Fingerhut catalogue to be remastered.

Fact: www.dhmo.org is a website dedicated to that stupid joke your chemistry teacher makes in high school about dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) being the most abundant, potentially dangerous chemical in the world.

Fact: according to double top-secret web analytics I saw for epa.g0v today, the number two referrer to EPA's website in the past 3 months was www.dhmo.org, and it's been in the top 5 for the past year.

i wish this thread was locked because i totally feel like this now.

like what

xp - like the subject of a thread i had second thoughts about posting on that was a serious clusterfuck.

I always have to stop myself going onto thread about bands I don't like to slag them off, as that wouldn't be doing anyone any good.

yeah - i hear you on that one.

yes, your options are literally become vegan or eat your own children. those are the only two options.

better yet, let your cats eat your children.

Dear John
"Cats" all she wrote

Cats Off to Larry

A previous housemate at the house in France, who I met briefly, had a cat that they were trying to transition to indoor apartment life after it had been indoor-outdoor. It did not go well. They ended up posting an ad trying to give away the cat with the header "Chat suffit!" I don't think that approach was successful.

Reminds me of the time I saw signs all over Soho that Charlotte Gainsbourg's cat had gone missing.

Bored of this cats entertainment

if your cat must kill, you should train it to get it out of its system by only killing other murderous cats

People, people, why are we fighting? Brothers and sisters! That cat over there, stop fighting.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Richard Starkey gets the Gas Face.

it's not that bizarre a point tbh

if you think of threads like conversations ...

as opposed to folders

It’s bizarre I guess if you just skimmed over the part where I talked about ocd and the corrosive effect it’s had on my life all so a bunch of people can tell us how many tests they’re doing each day and give us minute by minute updates of everything. But hey, I must be reacting for no reason and not because

that shouldn’t be enabled because it nearly literally killed me

otm

“the thread title says it’s ok” arguments fail to sway me. if a thread title told you to jump off a cliff would you do it

one way we can find out. it begins with a p!

jump, jump, jump on the tiger

it's a fair cop. one ticket to India, no return

good threads are generally conversational, but they do still tend to have more discontinuities and disruptions than an irl conversation. they also stop and start, often requiring a series of false prompts before one post finally gets the conversational part going again. i guess I'm saying there's a folder-conversation spectrum that each thread tends to fall on.

i mean, yeah, Sufjan, you're right -- there are certain ilx threads that are definitely folder like and their intent is such and there isn't really too much conflict or fraught-ness about it. But like, coping with covid is different than album covers with little people in someone's hair

right, but that's the other folder-like extreme. even the more conversational threads will have some anecdotes thrown out and ignored. when someone posts about a spotify bug on their phone, they are certainly hoping to have a conversation* about it. it just isn't going to happen every time, so the thread looks like a log of spotify app issues.

*hits "suggest jump off a cliff" button*

at some point satire becomes worse than the thing it's satirising, and that point is where it thinks it's qualified to mock the prevailing pop culture but also really, really wants to be the prevailing pop culture as well

it's no Dyson with Death that's for sure
