ILX is so mysterious. What is "rusticated"? What is "see off rt"? How do people understand what phrases like this mean in a way that they respond as if someone were talking normally?
Just by posting here, I always end up as a minor character in these "If Borges wrote melodrama" or "If Philip K. Dick ran credit checks" exchanges. Which used to bug me but now it's just funny.

rt is retweet elsewhere so, was confused (not everyone builds their life around deciphering acronyms of lazy Typing Words So Hard people)
I read some of the thread and Oh I Get It Now, it's initials. OHHHH. Okay. One of those worker bees-driving-the-intruder-off-dramas that are so essential to maintain the fragile cool & Safe Space (TM).

lmao congrats on cracking the code vp (that stands for vice-president elsewhere but I'm confident that you'll be able to use context to decipher the meaning, given 5 hours or so to mull it over)

True. The big mystery for me was why I would find myself being discussed on a thread I've never posted to.
― Vic Perry, Sunday, 25 January 2015 18:15 (nine years ago) link
the "why can't you people type full words??" criticism is silly, has no place in same space as the "why do you people feel the need to drive off certain posters?" criticism, which is vastly more interesting.

idk if anybody is trying to drive off joe biden so much as not getting a lot of value out of his (not everyone builds their life around deciphering acronyms of lazy Typing Words So Hard people) schtick and other fumbling approximations at understanding or expressing simple things

― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Sunday, 25 January 2015 19:40 (nine years ago) link
ILX social norms not "vastly more interesting" than - anything. People were inexplicably talking about me on a thread I had no part in. I wanted to know what it was all about. initials I thought were acronyms = my trying to figure out why. Personal rather than general interest.
Sorry that I don't follow every little spat on ILX. If I was having a fight with somebody that day, for example, I didn't have any reason to think I was. Search functions exist, go show me what obvious thing was going on worth reviving this thread that day.)
Having scanned this thread, I will say the continued group paranoia regarding who posters "really" are is revealing, kind of interesting.
Poster x is really poster y. or poster z come back from before, or A GHOST! I think he got banned. I heard he killed a guy. I heard she's a WITCH.
many lavatories in jr. high, grasshopper. Sorry I stumbled into this one.
― Vic Perry, Sunday, 25 January 2015 20:04 (nine years ago) link
sorry I find sociology more interesting than use of acronyms while typing (the explanation of which is plainly obvious)

just a throwaway remark if i remember correctly prompted by a reply to mordy you made on some other thread which was expressing a very common ilx sort of opinion but in a rambling, unfunny and didactic way
don't take these as final words about your character or an excommunication
if you want someone to start an ask vic perry thread to address anything related to you then that can be arranged, people will probably ask you about albums by bands and that sort of thing
― nakhchivan, Sunday, 25 January 2015 20:42 (nine years ago) link
Vic Perry, did you ever manage to find out what rusticated means?
― o.m.g. lol @ hurt butt (wins), Sunday, 25 January 2015 20:47 (nine years ago) link
Yes, thanks. True, I had a fight with Mordy. That's very unusual. I get your point.

he is positively Churchillian in his response to shit posters
the first post isnt entirely sincere, just a reference to how rt was similarly obtuse to begin with

The second post is entirely sincere, he believes I am Joe Biden.

how is not knowing a person's actual identity like middle school? IIRC middle school sucked but we all knew who each other were

"actual identity"
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Monday, 26 January 2015 01:23 (nine years ago) link
i think it feels like middle school when some dude like RT, displaying standard internet message board traits like arrogance, disdain for post-90s hip hop, and European-ness, shows up on ILX and a bunch of posters can't believe that he could be an actual person and must solve the mystery of whose sock this is.
