YOU GUYS HAVE THE LOWER CASE MARKET CORNERED.

I say he seemed to be taking it pretty well

I idly note that it is his strategy to seem like this at times.

right the H.M.S. Avril Thread is like a luxury liner only Captain Waddell is insane and is steering it toward a terrible vortex which will transport everybody to a Stone Roses concert and everybody on board is, like, me, an' shit, and so we all really hate the Stone Roses except for "Fool's Gold" which is obviously genius, but we know from the closed-circuit that they already done played that one and sure an' nobody wants to hear anything else by those guys so we're all storming the captain's cabin, and we can hear the second-tier britpop bands blaring through his boombox and it's makin' us crazy, but somehow we get in, but the shit-waves from the bad music cause the gears to gum shut and now we're gonna see the Stone Roses whether we like it or not, omg The Locking of the Avril Thread coming this summer to a wall in a hangar someplace during an acidhouse rave near you

Now sing that to "Sloop John B" -- or "Sloop John D" if you like.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:23 (nineteen years ago) link

What the hell's that thing?

Lo Boob Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:27 (nineteen years ago) link

A dress.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:28 (nineteen years ago) link

oh my God you guys have problems, she is so completely ugly and not in an "I don't like popular people" indie-kneejerk way but in a "she looks like a very ugly rodent, meaning no disrespect to my friends in the rodent population" way

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:28 (nineteen years ago) link

Calum: "I liked the part with the explosions and the bits where the man's head got blowed off. I didn't understand the bits with the talking. "The Locking of the Avril Thread" (18) gets a CRW Three Star
Rekommendasun! Take a cushion."

..., Friday, 18 June 2004 02:29 (nineteen years ago) link

No way! She looks mynxy.

Broheems (diamond), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:29 (nineteen years ago) link

my friends in the rodent population

Elaborate.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:29 (nineteen years ago) link

Come on, man. She's not hideous in the above shots. The top-left airbrushed one makes her look damn fine, IMO. (Obviously the reality differs somewhat)

(xxpost)

Andrew (enneff), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:29 (nineteen years ago) link

that's the only one where she doesn't look good, dude

gabbneb (gabbneb), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:32 (nineteen years ago) link

She's no Katie Holmes-in-red-eyeliner, that's for damn sure.

But the new "I'm not giving it up, no way" song is almost perfect.

miloauckerman (miloauckerman), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:32 (nineteen years ago) link

but as Edina says..."she's THIN"!
Anyone thin is by default not ugly in today's world.

Orbit (Orbit), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:33 (nineteen years ago) link

I think it's one of those deals with me where once something's looked one way, all future representations are gonna look like they're trying to cover up the REALITY, man - the top-left one is painted-over in the grand SNL tradition, but in the one just right of that you can see that she's got, like, ten cubic feet of head but only six cubic feet of face, and most of that's concentrated along the appallingly scrunched-up eye-nose axis. Just like an Egyptian spiny mouse. And I do love Egyptian spiny mice, but only as friends.

looks like a scene from a Carrie sequel

miloauckerman (miloauckerman), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:35 (nineteen years ago) link

A dress.

I meant the thing in the dress. Why's it holding a guitar?

Lo Boob Almanac (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:35 (nineteen years ago) link

I'd hit it.

Broheems (diamond), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:36 (nineteen years ago) link

haha bitter much, John?

unless you mean about not being able to have Egyptian spiny mice as pets since we got two cats, yeah, I'm kinda pissed about that

looks like a scene from a Carrie sequel

yes but that was the point of "carrie", right?? it is only at the end of the movie when she is soaked in sweet, sweet blood, doing her wet t-shirt bit and fucking shit up telekinetically that she finally becomes sexy and womanly in opposition to her neuterizing mother and insecur-izing classmates.

milo's picture makes her look awful but i like the pink print metallica shirt.

vahid (vahid), Friday, 18 June 2004 02:40 (nineteen years ago) link

when she visited Mt. Rushmore one of the workers tried taking a chisel to her face but fortunately you can't really tell

M, I don't claim
not to use them myself:

I only assert
that your "use then discard" claim

is hogwash:
which it is.

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Monday, 21 June 2004 11:35 (nineteen years ago) link

("why we should reject them":
well, we should! that we don't or can't as of yet

oughtn't reduce us
to models of partisanship

like your good
self.)

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Monday, 21 June 2004 11:37 (nineteen years ago) link

(as a final aside before we return
to the question you successfully derailed

us from, namely, your inexplicable
defense of Vice and its open,

demonstrated, asked-and-answered
racism:

"I use them and discard them" makes me wonder
if it's cool with you

for a person to vote Bush
as long as she isn't registered Republican.)

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Monday, 21 June 2004 11:42 (nineteen years ago) link

Is riding and rejecting binaries
Dualism - in nondual finery?

The reason being, if I say
I discard my theories every day
Could this harden into another lie
More dogma with which to live life by?

Its seems through words it can't be settled
Can a theory grasp the nettle?

Wow. This is sure a lot more interesting than when threads get locked at the evangelical christian message board I used to hang out at!

I am looking for the original Avril thread. I can't even remember what it was about! ...Avril?

Snap! I never thought that one would be it.
