posts very much in character

I'd think people thought the same thing coming across a woodcut of some king getting rogered by some other king "god somebody spent a lot of time on this" yup

throughout history people have traditionally had huge amounts of time on their hands
who are these people? why didn't they aspire to more? coming up next on ilxor.com

i'm not belittling it at all, more just imagining the character and mindset of the person who made it, not because i think they're some aberration, just in a sea of responses to trump it felt amusing and showed a level of dedication to the cause.

did people do woodcuts of kings boning each other? i'd have thought maybe bawdy songs or something might have been more likely, and maybe you got paid for that.

for some reason this reminded me that one of the most popular entertainers of the late 19th/early 20th century in Europe was a guy who could fart on command

for the record those gifs sometimes aren't that difficult to make ;)

That wikipedia page is a joy

At this point, pretty much every news item about Trump and his incoming administration is thoroughly unsurprising and often expected but somehow also capable of singlehandedly turning me into a white-hot supernova of rage.

wish McCain would just nut up and call Trump a cocksucker

Look, not to turn the tables, but a lot of you guys don't really live in former feudalist monarchies. I'm guessing you don't read the same history books in school that for example Danish kids does, don't walk around monuments to the freeing of the serfs as in Copenhagen.

Shooting Fred in a barrel

As I said, I'm a history major.

there's something rotten in that danish fish barrel.

I once walked into a bathroom where an old bloke was washing his arse + bollocks in the sink. Then I knelt in some diarrhoea later and actually felt lucky that it was diarrhoea rather than a needle with hep c. Can't grumble though - this was the actual apex of my working career!

DJP with an amazing follow up

skimming the thread was like being an old time prospector in a western, sifting through the silt down by the river, when suddenly an obvious glint of gold appears so brilliantly it glares in the camera's lens when I spot the post

My hatred of cyclists can be traced to an exact moment.

I was taking a walk on the Brooklyn Bridge and this African-American family was standing in the bike lane so they could take a photo on what anyone would agree is one of New York's most popular and iconic of tourist sites. A white cyclist was BARRELING down the decline and just starts yelling "NO!" at them, like he was scolding a dog, without slowing down. Like it just put a sharp focus the fucking entitlement of these people.

ftr that was in the controversial opinions thread

whiney told me that story on gchat years ago and i didnt post it to ILX

was this when he was still riding with training wheels?

the white guy then screamed, "not cool! you almost made me chuff my bacon!", as he took another sip out of his pumpkin spice latte,

the entitlement of that dude. It's almost like the term "bike lane" wasn't just meant as a metaphor.

listen to yourself

I'd rather listen to Sufjan
