Also, what were the prime Momus threads? I can't remember, just that they were great in a trainwrecky way.

Something about the suburbs, something about Eyes Wide Shut...?

Let Us Now Praise Dave Q

The thread that killed me in laughter the most I think is mostly gone now, it was a picture thread about Albainia mostly by Ned and someone else. I about broke down in laughter going through that one.

I think a classic one on ILM is one of the Stevie Ray Vaughn ones where random SRV fans get in to a pissing match (kind of literally) on the site.

Definitely having to register for the site has taken away the random freakiness of the site some. Before you would get say a Bobby Caldwell drummer page and people/family just randomly googling 'bobby caldwell' would pop on a thread. I get why they made the change, but that kind of happenstance that made stuff like that (or the mad Dave Matthews thread tick, can't happen without it).

TS: Denny Lethargy VS. Denny Vertigo

Behold! (It was Elvis T. and I, pretty much.)

And mostly all I was doing was reacting, Elvis did the heavy lifting.

The biggest and most interesting clusterfuck I experienced in real time (refresh! refresh!) was the Luna thing. That's in one of the above-linked, right?

Also historic was when the guy who sonned vordul visited ILX.

Hierophantiasis (Jon Lewis), Wednesday, 9 May 2012 17:52 (eleven years ago) link

the fascists scapegoated various "undesirable" groups - homosexuals, foreign immigrants, and left-wing liberals

ftr they didn't care if they were black, white or purple

Mad God 40/40 (Z S), Wednesday, 9 May 2012 18:55 (eleven years ago) link

Tuomas is all-time on the "so not gonna happen" thread. to wit:

There's a restaurant called "Hooters" in the US? Christ! Has anyone complained about it?
