zing

there are some seriously smug mfs on that thread (that i started ;_;)

dude no way it's a pretty good thread. . .for ILE.

they're all missing the point

Working at a small bookshop for three years did much to educate me on how Americans view reading. At the Gap or something they just saunter in; at my store they would always pause nervously, look around, and head straight for the counter. You can see in their expressions that they're still haunted by Mrs. Bixby telling them in sixth grade that books and broccoli were healthy.

who is being zung there? america?

Okay, so I'm not going to waste any time reading that thread.

I didn't realize the zing thread had turned into the "Avoid this clusterfuck thread at all costs", but I do appreciate the assistance.

yeah, ilxors on literacy = AVOID AVOID AVOID

yes yes 50 cent & kanye are clever & very good businessmen. i think calling either of them "poets" though is one fuck of a stretch.

Especially the part where they attempt to procure an emotional response by working rhyming words into rhythmic patterns.

lets get everything straight here then cuz im a bit confused

*kate and that guy paul are mad flirting on that thread.
*thread gets revived and it is revealed that guy lied about friends dying in 9-11 and he put on fake benefit shows for them.
*also he was a cutter.

is that it?

also: kate talks mad shit about paul's ex-girl until she is the ex-girl and is like 'oh my bad'

Not so much "zinging" as "clowning"

No Paul, no Christianity tho... debatably

dude is ridiculous

"become"

i like aaron and amandas music (although bmore gutter music was pretty shit) but for fucks sake, im tired of reading how they represent the new wave or are part of the real bmore club scene. they dont. on a street level, from what i know from people that live there, they dont mean much at all to the real bmore scene but if you go by what you read in mags like ID, they make it seem like theyre running it. its pretty fucking lazy reporting, wrong, unfairly biased and is basically inaccurate coverage of the music, the people making it and their attitude to it.

I like this movie a lot! You all hate me now :( It's not like I watch it and think "Wow, that's so profound, what a great solution for the problems of society," though! I'm shallow and like attractive actors, accents, and stupid violent movies sometimes.

have to agree with maria here - hate on me and call me a complete idiot, but i like shitty, accidentally-funny violent films featuring babes with irish accents.

Worst fucking movie evah.

Much-loved by the world's most lamprey-like douchies, save for Maria, the lovely outlier.

COLD

i would bet that that's just Abbott not reading the thread all that closely.

no really.

30-posts-later zing doesn't count

guys. aaron d.g. made a joke.

I looked up the word "outlier" and still don't understand the zing.

I think the zing is on Ruby.

I fear it is on us all.

;_;

I hadn't noticed she'd said that.

PLEASE TO EXPLAIN ZING YOU PEOPLE MAKE NO SENSE

i hope people are over this now, right?

seems that things have cooled down, but the generalisations and ill-sentiments expressed in this thread are a reminder that this place can be vaguely like high school

plz repost in every ILX thread ever

which thread is that from?

"In all candor, comparing Killing Joke to Steely Dan is like comparing power tools to rice cakes."

...sarcastic rice cakes with unlimited funding and the best session players that money can buy.

***

Listen to "Complications" off the s/t Killing Joke record while staring at the cover of Fire Dances. Then get back to me on who's goth.

Eat a big bag of your own filth, throw it up and rub it all over yourself, and then get back to me, Nate.

hahaha

alex is back w.a vengeance!

sounds like hes challenging the man to have a meaningful life experience

he just called ian an ass monkey on that thread

because ian was hating

ian's observation was justified, besides alex's schtick stopped being funny about 18 months ago.

alex's hate used to come with a certain joie de vivre, now it seems like he's just going thru the motions, but isn't he unemployed at the moment with 2 kids? that's gotta suck, cut him some slack. he also revived some thread about PMS last week where he was ranting about his wife - dude's going thru shit right now.

I think he's rich so I wouldn't be too worried about him. He was wearing patches on his sleeves when i saw him

hey sanskrit when did my schtick stop being funny, since you're counting

i like how no girls even bother to post to ilm anymore!

r.i.p., dominique leone
also, the lex is gone

jessica harvell has gone to a better place

when do we start the dominique leone vs. jess harvell vs. sasha frere-jones ambiguously-gendered names of music critics poll

the dance threads have gotten unbearably terrible in the last 6 months

i used to mix "a pulse x" with basic channel! id get my dick sucked now by some hipsters if i did that shit today.
