Clusterfuck Summary Corner

died before its time imho

lol thanks guys

Stand-up comedy thread?

tosh.0 told a woman at his show that it would be funny if she was raped

is that like some sort stand-up robot?

it's a guy who does a comedy central show about youtube

like you've been framed? fucking hell, he's one who should be raped. (wait, no-one should ever be raped, even if they have a tv show which is just watching the internet.)

so why haven't everybody agreed that that guy is an asshole douchebag and moved on?

Coz this is ILX

why coz beefs

srsly

vg killin it itt imo, abbs also doing valuable work

holy cow, ilx's latent weirdos all came out of the woodwork on that thread huh? no fewer than 4 regular posters were otming frogs

yeah that clusterfuck was kind of unique

i otm'd frogs but I missed a lot of his more controversial remarks. I'm ashamed.

it was a peach

so what happened on that pitchfork list thread? i'm too scared to look. i just hear murmurs about it. pitchfork throws the listy motherfuckers of ilm a bone and they can't just be happy about it? wait, nevermind, forgot where i was for a second there...

It's fairly unintelligible passive aggressive howling amongst the Britishers. Apparently some are men and some are women and all are sensitive.

It settled down a while ago though and now people are discussing music.

its the same clusterfuck ilm does on default - differences between white/black/male/female/gay/straight listeners in different genres all wrapped up on one quasi-indie website that is a hate figure, strawman and multiple poster employer all wrapped up into one. smack yr head against the wall, it'll be more purposeful than reading that thread. oh and there is about 200 posts about whether kanye reads p4k.

wait, there were? I guess I tapped out of that thread too early

Oh wait, there are TWO threads about this pitchfork poll.

It's not actually that bad. A few moments where people had their feelings hurt and others were a little defensive, but nothing really out of line or particularly clusterfuckery.

Mostly the usual "Why do White Men listen to music made by White Men?" and then investigations and rabbit holes. We've swung back around to Pitchfork's place as a 'niche' or a 'generalized' magazine, and how that might impact gender/racial biases in canonical lists.

lol that was p early, back when people were posting lists. someone had mbfghf at #1 and it set people off on that tangent, then wcc said something, nick wrote a blog and it went from there

you forgot the usual privileged upper middle class people complain about stuff

jesus christ ilm

nothing but dead white male-bashing from a PC thug

xxxp: oh lol okay, I was in heavy skim mode at that point and only dipping back in sporadically

would agree its not really a clusterfuck though.

it's far less interesting than that would imply

remember when ilm felt justifiably superior to pitchfork

Generic ILX clusterfuck summary:

Party of the 1st part: I didn't kill my wife!
Party of the 2nd part: I don't care!

i tapped out when dog latin would try and say something and then everyone would jump on 1 small part of his phrasing to accuse him of something he didnt really say and it happened for like 50 posts in a row

That's what ILM threads are always like haha

its pc gone mad

thank god we have this #safespace here

all we're asking for is one quiet space on the web for people to discuss indie bands

Hey you know, that clusterfuck wasn't clusterfucky enough! Why don't we do it all over again here, but this time mean and snarky, huh?

personally, i was surprised and delighted to see ghostface on so many of those pitchfork lists. he is the people's champ apparently. or maybe his album covers just look really cool when people are clicking around looking for things to pick for their lists.

"Hey you know, that clusterfuck wasn't clusterfucky enough! Why don't we do it all over again here, but this time mean and snarky, huh?"

what the hell, i'm up for it and don't feel like working anyway, you start.

lol

ghostface had the longest run of good albums of any rapper (maybe any artist even) in the 00s

xp

what abt flo rida tho

or maybe his album covers just look really cool when people are clicking around looking for things to pick for their lists.

ghost only has one good album cover though

(RIP original Fishscale cover :( )

You're right, of course, but the Bulletproof Wallets is so good it almost makes up for his other, mediocre covers:

ha ha, Pretty Toney is the one I like, but I do love your old post about that cover

That whole thread was pretty classic:

the homoeroticism in ghostface's 'run'

Also, I wish could find the inner sleeve pic of BW online, where Ghostface and Raekwon are in the same situation as in the cover, and Rae is presenting a bundle of cash to the camera, and Ghost is doing the same, except that instead of money he's holding a huge pineapple.

Sometimes I really wonder what was going on during that photo shoot...

BW needs to be marked down because I always (mis-)remembered him rocking an eagle head on it. Although I guess that can be said about everything Ghostface.

Haha, that's one the one! Seriously, what the hell is supposed to be happening there?

I don't know what's more WTF - I'm gonna boil up some banknotes, or look at my bitchin' pineapple. Maybe it's a throwback to the days when pineapples were considered so extravagant that people used to hire them and bring them to parties to show off their status.
