Nah, just cloning.

I think I'll do it tomorrow. A 2.30AM message would have 'crazy internet stalker from the past' written all over it.
― chap, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 01:44 (sixteen years ago) link
if you figured out cloning, ned, the internet would have to be renamed the interned

Give me time.
(Unrelated rofflyness -- from a recent Momus comment on his LJ re:ILX :
I'm not going to launch into a diatribe about how it's all polls now, or how you have to be Ned Raggett to fit in, or how idle watercooler-style chatter has banished the intelligent discourse.
Hooray! Oh wait.)

My sister's ex just added me as a friend. Now I have 2 friends. I am so popular.
― Hard like armour, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 01:50 (sixteen years ago) link
i cant find any friends on this thing!

did they all tell you their last name was smith?
― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 01:54 (sixteen years ago) link
You can find me, surely!
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 01:55 (sixteen years ago) link
found you!
― chaki, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 01:56 (sixteen years ago) link
Yay!
Stepping out, will be back later, etc.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 01:57 (sixteen years ago) link
so does one 'poke back'? like, out of curiousity? (pos know this person? hm, memory not so helpful)
― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 02:07 (sixteen years ago) link
Don't poke, write a "please to explain poke" message to it.
― Drooone, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 02:09 (sixteen years ago) link
hm
― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 02:14 (sixteen years ago) link
i'm a fan of less effort on my part hence poking back holy crap i am totally procrastinating
― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 02:18 (sixteen years ago) link
I think the poke-back is a little too lols and chummy, keeping distance with a "how do I know you?" is how I would approach this grave dilemma.
― Drooone, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 02:20 (sixteen years ago) link
i am lols and chummy these days
― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 02:24 (sixteen years ago) link
sort of
― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 02:31 (sixteen years ago) link
This photo is further proof that that guy I was whining about before is a twat. On the left. (sorry abt the whining, btw) http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j171/mdanielwalter/1.jpg

Is he a twat because he has a six pack or because he is on a fuck-off big boat posing on the Harbour?
― Hard like armour, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 04:46 (sixteen years ago) link
Ok, first he's a twat because every single thing he says on facebook is forged in the fiery pit of lolzheeelarity. second the vizor. third at school he was a scrawny tiny little coxswain now he's sporting a sweeet kind of flabby twopack or something and obviously here to show it off and party.
― Drooone, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 04:51 (sixteen years ago) link
that's all I got.
maybe i'm the twat.
― Drooone, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 04:52 (sixteen years ago) link
..It's his facebook profile photo btw.
― Drooone, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 05:04 (sixteen years ago) link
did this guy beat you up or something?
― The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 06:12 (sixteen years ago) link
Ha, no, he's about a foot shorter than me. We used to be good m8s, but drifted apart etc etc.
― Drooone, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 06:17 (sixteen years ago) link
Coxswain. Private school I presume.
― Hard like armour, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 06:21 (sixteen years ago) link
yeah m8. JEEPS m8
― Drooone, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 06:24 (sixteen years ago) link
What's with the matching shorts?
― Hard like armour, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 06:29 (sixteen years ago) link
I think if you poke someone back, then they can see your profile for a bit, and you can see theirs. I think.
Is anyone using Virb? It's like a prettier version of myspace but with flickr/video integration. I'm not convinced it offers enough that is new, and there are only about ten people on it, but it's definitely nicer to use. (http://www.virb.com/missekawasaki/)

everyone add me!! im c0ry sk1ar.

― lfam, Thursday, 24 May 2007 02:46 (sixteen years ago) link
still do not understand pokes will add chaki
― rrrobyn, Thursday, 24 May 2007 03:05 (sixteen years ago) link
I don't get the pokes, either. The one person I've poked is my husband. (Oh, how that SOUNDS.) But neither of us get it.
Chaki, I will add you! (You may reject me at will.)
― Sara R-C, Thursday, 24 May 2007 03:37 (sixteen years ago) link
ok, i'm now here now. hunt for j3remy s41m0n.

Ha ha just joined ILX/M group. Sadly this means that people will now find where I spend my day and get all my jokes! Maybe I should unsubscribe just to be safe!

Yes, me and my boyfriend poke each other several times a day. Wait, what?

Does "I hooked up with..." imply a sexual relationship or not?
― Alba, Tuesday, 12 June 2007 18:05 (sixteen years ago) link
it's only used ironically
― Curt1s Stephens, Tuesday, 12 June 2007 18:09 (sixteen years ago) link
not from this angle
― Will M., Tuesday, 12 June 2007 18:09 (sixteen years ago) link

hahaha. You kids and your boundless energy.

finally joined facebook this afternoon and I am frankly amazed how many ppl contacted me in a v short period of time, compared with myspace where I find i get friended in dribs and drabs (and mainly by bands these days, tho I don't mind that).
― Grandpont Genie, Monday, 25 June 2007 14:14 (sixteen years ago) link
Still won't do it.
I mean, my boss is on Facebook. 'Nuff said.
― Masonic Boom, Monday, 25 June 2007 14:15 (sixteen years ago) link
What is the ILX0r group? How do I join it?
Does anyone else find this more incomprehensible than MySpace/Friendster. I have no idea what to do.
― Ms Misery, Monday, 25 June 2007 14:17 (sixteen years ago) link
"Hooked up with" does imply snogged/boffed, but most people use it as a joke.
I have managed to avoid being friended by ex-school people by using my name that only came into being a couple of years after I left. Ha!
― emil.y, Monday, 25 June 2007 14:17 (sixteen years ago) link
"hooked up with" has the virtue of being open to interpretation, and a casual, short-lived sexual relationship is definitely one of those interpretations
― Tracer Hand, Monday, 25 June 2007 14:18 (sixteen years ago) link
I used my internet psuedonym which confused old college friends. But I really don't want to use my real name. I don't know why, this seems more adult and almost every one else is.
