posts very much in character

via tehresa:

Last night there were about half a dozen art openings on the same street in E2. I learned, or was told:

The girls who made the biggest impact were a pair of perfectly time-capsuled a-la Doris Day Japanese art nerds with clear-resin but proper '50s hornrim librarian specs. Anna could rock all these dresses without appearing that nerdlike.

Mario Testino has death breath.

Peopole *still* talking about Isabella Blow - the Dame Edith Sitwell type above is totally channelling Issy. There are a lot of baby Blows knocking around the artier side of fashion; I think it's a forgiving look when orthodonture is an issue.

The grey knee-high socks thing is DIY Miu Miu a/w 07. If you want ones that stay up, Wolford is your friend but many also go the Westwood route. I will let you know how it goes with Mary Janes.

I would lol at the name dropping if only I knew who the hell she was talking about.

Isabella Blow commited suicide. She was a muse to a few fashion designers/magazines/something or other. Used to wear outrageous hats.

Testino's a photographer.

Miu Miu: Prada. Wolford a sock brand. Westwood I suspect is Vivienne.

I'm a sad bitch for knowing all this, aren't I? :-(

miu miu is not prada!

Ah sheesh, it's her "diffusion" line or whatever the fuck you wanna call it. :-)

miu miu = miuccia prada.

i am torn between doing a track-by-track breakdown of the justice album and eating a burrito

In a totally :D way:

The word "fisted" is a big part of it for me. You know, the internet has spoiled a lot of innocent things for me. Most anything I see on tv makes me think what fetish site that screen cap will end up on. "There's one for the stiletto heels getting stuck in mud sites." "Oh, that's ending up with the sneezing porn." "Furries, furries, furries...who can really argue for intelligent design when I know what you're pondering while watching this cartoon?"

hey, i haven't been around in a while but i saw evan tonight and he's awesome people. i'm fucked up.

So I've missed nothing much for the past couple of hours then, apart from low-grade fuckwittery from the usual suspects.

He's like Albion's own Snrub.

i only poke when poked; rather than being a means to acknowledge another's presence, it seems to be more a means to remind another of one's own presence. i.e. ppl be attention-seekin'/horny

is there a reason why King Boy hasn't been banned yet? Jewish Nazis - What's All This About?

Do people figure he's just an adolescent? Or has he actually contributed a single worthwhile post anywhere on ILx?

i thought that was a pretty funny joke king boy made.

I am wondering if some ppl dont realise he's Esteban?

i didn't.

you have a life

HAY! What are you saying Jon? ;P

i think that is technically a griffin

oh hey i saw kevin the other night and he is a bro. i actually had to talk him into taking a shot of beam with me, tho! out of character??

I trust my sources. Mwah hah hah. There is nothing more reliable than a 13 year old with a camera and a mission.

And oh dear lord, I have found the motherload of Strokes slash fan fiction. I may be a while here... There's actually, like, photos and everything. And not just those little kisses with Jack White. We're talking full on MAN LUV. I love my life. I need to print these babies out and take them with me for boring moments in the tourvan...

I might be attending

wait how am I missing out on a thread with this much jizz on it? I'm totally distracted today.

Do self-aware in-character posts count?

Nevermind, I don't care.

Kenan's Anal Cunt comment is kind of funny in light of this conversation last month:

I have never heard an actual AC song.

After reading the titles, you pretty much have.

-- Jordan, Monday, August 6, 2007 11:25 AM (1 month ago) Bookmark Link

I think Anal Cunt is a band that exists solely to be "cleverly" name-checked on ILM.

-- jaymc, Monday, August 6, 2007 11:27 AM (1 month ago) Bookmark Link

I can't decide if reading a huge list of AC song titles like that makes them seem more awesome, or if they detract from the individual genius of each song title. Like, just having a song called "Your Best Friend Is You" or "Being A Cobbler Is Dumb" is pretty awesome. But reading a whole list of the song titles shows your their consistency in song-titling, which is another important factor.

I played them, more than once, on my college radio show. I even went to one of their shows, where the singer threw a cinder block into the audience and tried to pick a fight with a homeless guy. They're assholes!

-- dan m, Monday, August 6, 2007 11:29 AM (1 month ago) Bookmark Link

No, they exist so rebellious high schoolers can buy albums by a band named Anal Cunt.

-- Jordan, Monday, August 6, 2007 11:29 AM (1 month ago) Bookmark Link

Also their album Picnic of Love is one of the stupidest/weirdest things ever.

xp: Jordan OTM. And because someone gave them money to make shitty records.

>Like, just having a song called "Your Best Friend Is You" or "Being A >Cobbler Is Dumb" is pretty awesome.

yeah, but where does "You're Gay" fall on that spectrum? So dumb it's awesome or just droolingly witless?

-- kenan, Monday, August 6, 2007 11:30 AM (1 month ago) Bookmark Link

Oh. I had never heard of them until they were "cleverly" name-checked on like every other thread on ILM, regardless of topic.

that post was all a c/p of jaymc c/p-ing himself

on a "lol" thread, even.

People Who Hate On Anal Cunt Are Gay

"You Maintain A Spreadsheet"

yeah, but he was referencing the fact that a similiar exchange had happened on a different thread recently, not posting it to a lol thread because he thought it was hilarious. the only person who should be in "posts very much in character" for c/p-ing giant chunks of previous threads is xhuxk.

Now you're being pedantic too

that's because I'm posting very much in character.

lagerfeld is basically the most important person who ever lived on this planet

Were I ever in a possession of a taser, this comment would automatically earn someone a rigorous tasing.

actually this movie would probably be a lot more fun if Rachel Ray was in it. She could cook a taco-pizza and then get eaten by locusts.

not really, if i don't start out on brown liquor i usually don't switch to it after 5 hours of drinking.

Haha no Tito. He has cousins in MN; my grade school best friend's dad was his cousin. I am not aware of any other friends having links to Bloc era leaders...

i really wish ILX didn't have only one person from Finland who also just happens to be somewhat 'eccentric', only one person from Norway who also just happens to be somewhat 'eccentric', only 63 people from Britain who also just happen to be a somewhat 'eccentric'...
