MIA

crap album cover. shame cos i really like her website design and thought the album would look similar, rather than shit.

i know its been said but every time i see this thread now i just want to taste truffle flavoured french fries. i never even knew you could get so many varieties of fries.

from the comments box on that observer piece -

I am an audio producer. The M.I.A. tapes on her website have been clearly edited. You can hear the edits if you know what to listen for. Whether they were condensed simply for length, or to remove something like M.I.A., saying, "oooo, the Truffle fries, I LOVE truffle fries..." We will never know. But edited, they are.

I am an anonymous expert posting in the Comments on a website. You can trust me.

I am tempted to post "I am a chef and truffle fries are delicious"

I am a pig and I ate the truffles.

I want you as my waiter.

wow whiney. horrible post.

When I was last in the UK they had a flavor of crisp called "Cajun Squirrel." If MIA had been chowing down on them, none of this would have ever happened.

"I shouldn't make light of the name," mumbles MIA as she chews on a fistful of crisps, colorfully flavored Cajun Squirrel. "There are places in the world where one squirrel would feed a whole family, where wars are fought over squirrels." She pauses. "My grandfather raised squirrels." MIA briefly ponders the broader implications of her snack. "But you know what? I don't care what anyone thinks. I would kill for these crisps. Have you tried them? They're bloody delicious." She shoves another fistful into her mouth. "I suppose that makes me a terrorist," she finally declares, moist, processed potato crumbs gathering at the corners of her mouth.

wow whiney. horrible post.

haha he sent me a link of it as soon as he posted it beaming with pride, i was like uhhh dude. but seriously you guys should just call a truce at least on ilx, it's a huge drag for everyone else, let it go.

so wait, why is whiney fantasizing about deej's tube?

i better still be allowed to zing whiney generally -- didnt know he had anything to do w/ the barenaked ladies aside from maybe looking like a member

"haha he sent me a link of it as soon as he posted it beaming with pride"

Creepy.

is there anybody besides deej and whiney who thinks their squabbling and h.f."j"s between one another add anything to a conversation? speaking for myself with rancor to neither, I wish you guys would just take it to email, or to your tumblrs if you must. it's just a bummer here in my opinion. like deej you know how when I attack you for saying anything mildly pro-Obama, it comes off super-lame? heal thyself man

hand fuck jobs

i know "j"s are marijuana cigarettes but what does h.f. mean

horribly formed "jokes" you guys, do keep up

aerosmith otm, go beef all you want but leave it off ilx

xpost i refuse to believe that's a thing

it's not a thing I just made it up if it sucks that is fine w/me it just always amused me, the horribly formed "joke" thread & i have a really high fever so frankly everybody needs to just be totally impressed that my posts don't read like

Let Beeroth rejoice with Sea-Buckthorn.
Let Kirjath-arim rejoice with Cacalianthemum.
Let Hadid rejoice with Capsicum Guiney Pepper.
Let Senaah rejoice with Bean Cape.
Let Kadmiel rejoice with Hemp-Agrimony.
Let Shobai rejoice with Arbor Molle.
Let Hatita rejoice with Millefolium Yarrow.
Let Ziha rejoice with Mitellia.
Let Hasupha rejoice with Turky Balm.
Let Hattil rejoice with Xeranthemum.
Let Bilshan rejoice with the Leek. David for ever! God bless the Welch March 1st 1761. N.S.
Let Sotai rejoice with the Mountain Ebony.
Let Sophereth rejoice with White Hellebore.
Let Darkon rejoice with the Melon-Thistle.
Let Jaalah rejoice with Moly wild garlick.

yet

ilx beef, even more embarrassing than a 2010 rap beef

i wish the deej/wgw thing would continue but calm down and not be butthurt, cuz bros zinging bros goodnaturedly over silly shit like this can be such gold

I am willing to use the MIA thread to extend a long-needed olive branch to my man deej.

I'm not actually butthurt, I generally think it's funny, but if it's actually annoying other ppl we should prolly stop

I honestly don't think deej is b/h either

more fanfic

i didnt think my zing was particularly bhurt causing or really qualified as DEEJ WHINEY BEEF. it was a callback to a way old whiney zing that basically everyone has made & had nothing to do w/ me & him arguing about hipsters white people or gucci mane

Yeah but there was no reason to even zing me in the first place! I didn't even say anything!

you are therefore i zing

great thread

deej whiney beef >>>> MIA ny times beef

seriously if you guys think you're doing this mainly for our entertainment, thanks but no thanks

^^^

I think there is one poster besides deej & whiney who enjoys deej/whiney beef & he's sort of obligated to by his gimmick

name names

idg/care what this is even about any more

that was just a cheap jab at the idea that we were interrupting some Very Important Thread

it has nothing to do with the importance of the thread and you guys making every thread you appear on about yourselves

I say this as someone very prone to making threads about himself who also realizes how incredibly annoying that can be, which is why I try not to do it on every thread I choose to participate in

i dont see how i did that here

that was just a cheap jab at the idea that we were interrupting some Very Important Thread

I don't think anybody gives a shit about the thread, they just give even less of a shit abt deej/whiney beef whether for lols or no - it's just kinda not funny or interesting any more, which again I say w/o rancor, you just seem to have this idea that like deej/whiney beef is something that livens up a thread - it may for deej & whiney but otherwise I would guess the prevailing feeling when you guys start zinging is "well, so much for anything interesting here"

^ best thing itt imo

so uhm, I hear M.I.A. likes to eat truffle fries, is that true

i dont actually think that deej-whiney beef makes ppl entertained guys. chillax. if anything the beef has been more about my 'seething frustration' at his worldview with respect to certain areas of the pop cultural landscape

take it to twitter imo

they did take it to twitter recently, shit was even more tedious. i support the idea that they create a special beef tumblr where they can post any back-and-forths when they're feeling the urge (and make it accessible only by password (and then give nobody else the password)).
