was miki the one with the orange hair?

― amateur!!st, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Red hair, yup.

haven't you already used up all the "ehs" you can muster for them??

You didn't revive the thread to talk about the band. ;-) (I clicked because Spencer and I and others were yakking a bit on the tracks poll thread and I thought it might have something to do with that.)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:56 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm being honest here, I don't sense that at all, and that's actually the big reason I don't see her as attractive much.

Ned, I should have specified above that my question about her attractiveness was only skin deep. That's why I asked it, because I thought you were being a bit harsh about the way she looked. I don't think you can honestly say that if she posted a pic to an ILE "so what do you look like thread", and you didn't know who she was, that you wouldn't complement her.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:56 (twenty-one years ago)

You gotta pick a harder venue than that, Spencer.

(Sorry, I'm not going to post on this thread anymore, everything comes out mean and skeezy.)

― nabisco (nabisco), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:58 (twenty-one years ago)

I kiss you all, including Julian and his barely-legal high school sundae.

― mahirsco (nabisco), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:59 (twenty-one years ago)

haha - not at all, I really appreciate your comments upthread, I think we're all falling into a bit of a paternalistic trap with this.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Spencer, I'm serious -- she looks unremarkable. *shrug* There ya go.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:00 (twenty-one years ago)

I agree about the trap thing, though.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:02 (twenty-one years ago)

it's like a Paul Schrader script!

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:02 (twenty-one years ago)

I think she's Latina. Maybe not Ned's cup o' tea?

― kickitcricket (kickitcricket), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:03 (twenty-one years ago)

jesus lord

― s1ocki (slutsky), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:04 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't fall for or reject anyone for their ancestry, Kickit, and if the thread is going to take THAT kind of a turn, I'm agreeing with both Nabisco and Slocki and letting it go.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:05 (twenty-one years ago)

he's not looking so fabulous these days

The Morrissey/Casablancas duet serving as the b-side to The End Has No End?

― Slim Pickens (Slim Pickens), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, that sounded less accusatory in my head. Sorry Ned. My bad.

― kickitcricket (kickitcricket), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:08 (twenty-one years ago)

No worries.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Ned told me to "go back to Moscow" one time, and I'm like "Don't you mean Dublin?" and he leaned in and hissed "Moscow!" and tossed his glass of wine in my face.

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:10 (twenty-one years ago)

we've been friends ever since

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:10 (twenty-one years ago)

there is no reason to think there was anything racist about cricket's comment

― Magic City (ano ano), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:10 (twenty-one years ago)

I love you, Gear.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:11 (twenty-one years ago)

xpost, would never suggest or even meant to cause anyone to suggest something like that about Ned (as it's absurd) - I was only asking whether Ned was wearing Strokes-goggles, but he has convinced me otherwise.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Heh, this is making a mountain out of a molehill at this point. Let us leave it at 'tastes differ.'

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:12 (twenty-one years ago)

Next time, I'll leave my can of worms at home.

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:14 (twenty-one years ago)

That's me second from left, yes?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:14 (twenty-one years ago)

yes. the haircut's wrong, everything else is all too accurate

― Gear! (Gear!), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:15 (twenty-one years ago)

Yowsa!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:16 (twenty-one years ago)

a can of worms is useful for actual fishing, but not much else.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Ellis comparisons OTM but this is no less gr8 for it.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 18:55 (twenty-one years ago)

i think the only time i've read ned admit to being knocked out by someone's appearance is when i posted a picture of janet gaynor to the silent film thread!!

the rest of my post was swallowed up by something sinister

― amateur!!st, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 19:11 (twenty-one years ago)

something ate your eyes.

― cºzen (Cozen), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 19:13 (twenty-one years ago)

is that a come on?

― amateur!!st, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 19:16 (twenty-one years ago)

"something ate my eyes, and baby it's you"

― amateur!!st, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 19:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Ned has one of those corrupted LA conceptions of hot.

― Lukas (lukas), Thursday, 26 August 2004 00:24 (twenty-one years ago)

*scratches head bemusedly*

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 26 August 2004 00:25 (twenty-one years ago)

The bar is raised here. Unfortunately. Why can't people just accept all the hotness in this city?

― Lukas (lukas), Thursday, 26 August 2004 00:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Anyway jawdropping girls get sneered at by my bitchy friends here. This may be more of an envy thing, however.

― Lukas (lukas), Thursday, 26 August 2004 00:30 (twenty-one years ago)

*Thread closed until the live album leaks*

― Raymond Cummings (Raymond Cummings), Thursday, 26 August 2004 14:43 (twenty-one years ago)

she deleted it. i blame ned.

― mark p (Mark P), Friday, 27 August 2004 17:21 (twenty-one years ago)

and by ned i mean gawker.

― mark p (Mark P), Friday, 27 August 2004 17:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Great, can I complain more and have the band delete themselves?

(Am: "See, this is another variation on 'meh!' I KNOW I'M RIGHT!")

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 27 August 2004 17:25 (twenty-one years ago)

I wonder if this is more or less evidence that she was maybe making everything up...

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 27 August 2004 17:30 (twenty-one years ago)

...or maybe Julian said, "Listen baby, we're on separate tracks heading on the same line, but all those others, you know they're not on board, don't bring 'em into this, it'll only bring us down and prop them up, know what I mean?"

― morris pavilion (samjeff), Friday, 27 August 2004 18:55 (twenty-one years ago)

three weeks pass...

classics!

― cºzen (Cozen), Friday, 17 September 2004 16:53 (twenty-one years ago)

esp. 'is this it?'

― cºzen (Cozen), Friday, 17 September 2004 16:54 (twenty-one years ago)

oh yes, this'll do.

― cºzen (Cozen), Friday, 17 September 2004 16:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Is this the famous Strokes thread that was reprinted in that book?
