one of them hates animal collective

i have researched this matter, and i offer apologies to flappy bird
― you are juror number 144 and we will excuse you (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 31 October 2017 19:59 (six years ago) link
i think because flappy bird and turrican are so often interlocutors in a circuitous and seemingly endless colloquy it was, at first, easy for me to also confuse the two

flappy not an aggressively tedious dullard so I have no problem distinguishing him.
― Terry Micawber (Tom D.), Tuesday, 31 October 2017 20:36 (six years ago) link
I took it as "he brings up 9/11 and how it affected him as frequently as Roger Waters brings up WWII and how it affected him"
Yup, I remember this and this was pretty much the way that it was intended, although I didn't actually know that you lived so close to the twin towers when I wrote that (I've only found that out, like, right this second) - I just assumed that you were more than a touch obsessed with 9/11 and didn't bother to look into why that was. Now that I know why, it's understandable that you'd want to talk about it so much and now feel my comments were unwarranted and incredibly mean.

i was unaware that flappy allegedly 'brings up 9/11 and how it affected him frequently' -- i had him tagged as 'knows too much about smashing pumpkins'

I sometimes get my flappy birds, flopsons and frogbs confused, one of them is a YMO stan.

Like, I don't really give much of a shit if people get upset over my posting style or my opinions on music, but I really don't want to be upsetting people over their very real offline issues.
― Gholdfish Killah (Turrican), Tuesday, 31 October 2017 21:22 (six years ago) link
i appreciate the apology, turrican. i don't think i talk about it that much on here but i can see how one could misconstrue w/o context i guess
and i know way too much about the smashing pumpkins
― flappy bird, Tuesday, 31 October 2017 21:22 (six years ago) link
and by know too much i mean i saw 3 shows with Mike Byrne on drums
ok back to regularly scheduled programming

Anyhow - flappy, as much as we may have had our conflicts over music from time to time (I will never understand your Animal Collective fixation, for one), I apologise for the Roger Waters comment. It was highly insensitive and I wouldn't have made the comment in the first place if I'd truly known your situation.
― Gholdfish Killah (Turrican), Tuesday, 31 October 2017 21:27 (six years ago) link
thank you
― flappy bird, Tuesday, 31 October 2017 21:28 (six years ago) link
fp'ing you both for this disgusting display of maturity

should be a thread where the 51'd can make one last post with full knowledge of who 51'd them
― you are juror number 144 and we will excuse you (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 31 October 2017 22:16 (six years ago) link
or maybe the 51'd can post it into any thread. but the 51'd will know that it will surely be the last post before banning. no time limit.

doubling back to the auto-killfiling anyone you FP, couldn't disagree more. SB being downgraded to FP, whatever its flaws, makes it about the post not the poster. good posters can make terrible posts though it is comparatively rare I guess

Lol that old chestnut about SB changing when it was renamed

Turrican kept on reiterating a phrase that ties into struggles I've had and family have had outside of here and that really bothered me.
But I still got time for him and think flappy is awesome
― Week of Wonders (Ross), Tuesday, 31 October 2017 23:49 (six years ago) link
lol @ everyone being expected to know every posters personal history.

(I remain clueless as to who flappy is, or turrican for that matter but eh ILM is an alien desert to me)
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Wednesday, 1 November 2017 00:08 (six years ago) link
I dunno about 31 or whatever guys but can we acknowledge that something needs to happen with ilx because....I mean...it's fucking awful now
― Gary Synaesthesia (darraghmac), Wednesday, 1 November 2017 00:16 (six years ago) link
Or I mean don't u think?
we need to recruit new posters
― Treeship, Wednesday, 1 November 2017 00:17 (six years ago) link
Well yes that is part of it yes
― Gary Synaesthesia (darraghmac), Wednesday, 1 November 2017 00:17 (six years ago) link

― Treeship, Wednesday, 1 November 2017 00:18 (six years ago) link
If its fucking awful now, you're still here why exactly?

i don't think it's awful.
deems stays in this relationship out of love. he's irish and sentimental.

I don’t want to autokillfile anyone I fp, I want to auto fp anyone I killfile, because I don’t want to have to see their shite in order to fp them. But there’s really just one in particular right now who everyone else is naming so maybe we’ll get that one pretty soon. Worse than geir I think

I missed having this discussion. I see everybody has really reflected on their positions and is in listening mode now, well done all, for a while I thought the anti-banning crowd were rigid ideologues who'd wholly immunized themselves against discourse
