has there been a dedicated tuomas disinformation thread yet?

A new ILX, a new compendium of our intreped hero Tuomas staring into the vast seas of mystery.

i meant more like a thread where we present tuomas both true and false bits of american pop cultural/political history and then he has to decide which are true and which are false but we never actually tell him.

maybe lorax can start it w/a true or false history lesson

That would be ridiculous since anything we presented could easily be checked on Google for the correct ans –– oh, I see where you're going with that.

I want to make a "Two Princes" Spin Doctors joke but can't make it work.

I went searching for screencaps of that video after I posted that before coming to my senses.

found another Mr. Bean photo for Tuomas:

joke never gets old

kinda hate tori amos but http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxhp2vABGG1qbq45jo1_500.jpg

Polly Jean looks bored and Bjork looks like she'd rather be anywhere other than listening to Tori Amos tell a story about something.

it's so true. it's tough to interpret this picture as anything other than tori amos ruining the evening

bjork's face is like "I'm sorry your hair is so frizzy Tori, also wtf are those shoes"

Yeah Björk is full of pity for Tori tbh. I like how PJ already gave up being emphatic and started to roll a joint.

Elvis, care the to tell us who the people in your first and second pic are? I recognize only Amy Winehouse in the first, no one in the second.

Who's the girl? xxp

Alice gets around (also, boy does Alice look wrecked in his booze days)

http://www.thisisnotporn.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Groucho-Marx-and-Alice-Cooper.jpg

Also, who are the people with John F. Kennedy?

http://www.thisisnotporn.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Gene-Simmons-and-the-Beastie-Boys.jpg

Also, who are the people with John F. Kennedy?

OK, I'll give you this one: Judy Garland, JFK, Carol Burnett, Danny Kaye

How is it weird that three 80s pop stars appear in the same pic?

http://www.thisisnotporn.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Mohammed-Ali-and-Bill-Cosby.jpg

ok, this is kind of expected but still... Did the photographer survive?

http://www.thisisnotporn.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Keith-Moon-and-Oliver-Reed.jpg

I'm with Tuomas. Who are the guys in the second pic? And who's the guy next to Billy Idol?

xxps does MJ have one black hand still in that picture?

Not sure where you're counting. Pict #2 is the Olsen Twins, Amy Winehouse, and Karl Lagerfeld. Pict #3 is Al Kooper, Norman Rockwell, and Michael Bloomfield.

Who's the girl? xxp

Milla Jovovich (with Beck)

And who's the guy next to Billy Idol?

Really? I guess you can't see his beret (which he wore all the time)

I can see his beret and that doesn't help me. Only famous beret wearer we know in the UK is this guy:

http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRbwTudh5tFcBDDxJz2vo_g_DNO7J-Ph3Qxoh_-CaPzs3MqxB7f

OK then, beret guy is Sam Kinison.

Yeah, I don't want to Tuomas up the thread, but it'd be good if people could post who is in the pictures, no matter how famous and obvious you think they are.
