Ask Raccoon Tanuki

its p terrible

Lol its a good thing we can have a sense of proportion about how the ongoing Inter net/music discourse fits into the scheme of things

RT:

How can mirrors be real if our eyes arent real?

Also:

If we came over for dinner, what would you make?

Are you infering that Nardwuar is a more accurate depiction of your average ilxor and you're Lydia?

Raccoon Tanuki, what is your opinion on the former ILX poster luriqua?

that it's full of wanky, self important humerlous posts like this. That it thought it was important. That it took itself seriously. That it was full of people who depended on pitchfork for their opinion.

these recurring "that"s are the grotty knoll of one or the major tanuki ID theories

It's like that, y'all. It's like that, y'all. It's like that-a tha-that. It's like that y'all.

More like "spittoon bukkake" amirite?

trust that 'vic perry' will be rusticated in half the time it took for ilx to see off rt

lydia lunch is awesome; too many ilxors do not appreciate her

Vic's been around off and on for years iirc?

different Vic iirc

this one's been posting for at least a year iirc

did VP get banned?

his posts certainly make me think

ILX is so mysterious. What is "rusticated"? What is "see off rt"? How do people understand what phrases like this mean in a way that they respond as if someone were talking normally?

Just by posting here, I always end up as a minor character in these "If Borges wrote melodrama" or "If Philip K. Dick ran credit checks" exchanges. Which used to bug me but now it's just funny.

Bitch get me a lemonade

How rude

i thought vic was a longtime poster for some reason

moi aussi

All this insider lingo like "rt"

RT out!

rt is retweet elsewhere so, was confused (not everyone builds their life around deciphering acronyms of lazy Typing Words So Hard people)

I read some of the thread and Oh I Get It Now, it's initials. OHHHH. Okay. One of those worker bees-driving-the-intruder-off-dramas that are so essential to maintain the fragile cool & Safe Space (TM).

lmao congrats on cracking the code vp (that stands for vice-president elsewhere but I'm confident that you'll be able to use context to decipher the meaning, given 5 hours or so to mull it over)

promising

well I see the ilx bullying squad drove another perfectly fine poster away

peace out gonna go eat some garbage

I have this bad habit of thinking people are more interesting than they actually are.

it's not always so hard to figure out

True. The big mystery for me was why I would find myself being discussed on a thread I've never posted to.

the "why can't you people type full words??" criticism is silly, has no place in same space as the "why do you people feel the need to drive off certain posters?" criticism, which is vastly more interesting.

idk if anybody is trying to drive off joe biden so much as not getting a lot of value out of his (not everyone builds their life around deciphering acronyms of lazy Typing Words So Hard people) schtick and other fumbling approximations at understanding or expressing simple things

wasn't talking about him

ILX social norms not "vastly more interesting" than - anything. People were inexplicably talking about me on a thread I had no part in. I wanted to know what it was all about. initials I thought were acronyms = my trying to figure out why. Personal rather than general interest.

Sorry that I don't follow every little spat on ILX. If I was having a fight with somebody that day, for example, I didn't have any reason to think I was. Search functions exist, go show me what obvious thing was going on worth reviving this thread that day.)

Having scanned this thread, I will say the continued group paranoia regarding who posters "really" are is revealing, kind of interesting.

Poster x is really poster y. or poster z come back from before, or A GHOST! I think he got banned. I heard he killed a guy. I heard she's a WITCH.

many lavatories in jr. high, grasshopper. Sorry I stumbled into this one.

sorry I find sociology more interesting than use of acronyms while typing (the explanation of which is plainly obvious)

Sorry I stumbled into this one.

you're not alone in that, believe me

twsh peeps itt

Sincerely, I don't know what "twsh peeps itt" means.

just a throwaway remark if i remember correctly prompted by a reply to mordy you made on some other thread which was expressing a very common ilx sort of opinion but in a rambling, unfunny and didactic way

don't take these as final words about your character or an excommunication

if you want someone to start an ask vic perry thread to address anything related to you then that can be arranged, people will probably ask you about albums by bands and that sort of thing

Vic Perry, did you ever manage to find out what rusticated means?

Yes, thanks. True, I had a fight with Mordy. That's very unusual. I get your point.

trust that 'vic perry' will be rusticated in half the time it took for ilx to see off rt

Same guy writes both posts. Encouraging to see the unforced backtracking.

nakh never backtracks
