it wasn't hard cause it was mostly ILM and I had nothing to say
once in a while I had a good joke and I was like damn I wish I were a reg so I could make this joke

i remember an old post where a lurker chimed in about how he saw ILX as this collection of stories he followed along... he used this amazing musical metaphor that i can't quite remember

i don't think it's weird to lurk for that long
even me, i've been posting for a long ass time but there are still parts of the board or certain threads where i'm just a lurker and have been for a long time, just don't have anything to add

I mostly watched ilm and posted on the very rare occasion, for years. Eight years later and leaning on ile heavily after a life crisis, here I am.
― mh, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 04:59 (eleven years ago) link
not only have i never lurked, i have never read an ilx post aside from my own, and those only as i was typing them

more thread relevant:
ILE can be such a cliquey place sometimes, with all these in-jokes and funny language and special ways of doing things, that I wonder how it must seem to the outsiders - do they feel excluded? do they feel intimidated? do they think we're strange and unapproachable?And then I realise I don't care. Because it's the weird silly stuff on ILE which makes me love this place so much

ilx can be kind of mean and i enjoyed the schadenfreude....main things spurring me to post: 1) learning of the existence of 77 and the prospect of never knowing what happened on this secret board was slowly driving me insane and 2) i have seen several ilxors irl in baltimore (strongo, drew d, and stevie d) and the fact that i knew who they were and actually knew things about them but couldn't say hello to them seemed like the weirdest thing and it really bugged me for a long time. also i gained alot from ilx over the years, it's def changed my life in terms of ways i think about and listen to music and interpret fiction so i wanted to give something back and say thanks guise. you have no idea how much shit i've stolen from you and passed off as my own observations.
