moments when you seriously believe all of popular culture has been reduced to fan service

what's the logic for a thread like this to be on 77 rather than ILE?

Come over and find out!

Many many non sequitur ILXor nudes iirc

so did i get added to 77 at some point? or did i ask for it and completely erase this memory?

Maybe you were always there, Doctor. Maybe 77 is you.

i am a doolly appointed federuhl postuh

I don't discuss my personal life or problems online

tbf half of ilm is people doing exactly this, they're just couching it in language that makes it look like they're commenting on popular music

now i wanna see a bunch of ilxors do their best to write fake reviews where they are clearly discussing their own life shit

(don't send me "real" ones, i mean, i want ilxors to do these as a joke)

Did anyone mention M1ke Stuchb3ry/Mikey Bidness as a semi-notable former ILXor?

i didn't know he was an ilxor but he's getting RT'd to my timeline a LOT after getting doxxed and confronted by a famous white ethnonationalist cunt a week or so ago

Someone I follow just retweeted him, which is what reminded me.

i didn't know mikeybidness was famous.

jaymc have you always kept the same xls file updated or has it gone through several iterations

I like the idea of a secret cabal that I'm not permitted access to. Otherwise, this would just be a webforum stuck with 1990s design, packed with music journos, and born of usenet's rec.music.alternative.

I mean... he has approx. the same # of Twitter followers as ghost rider.

johnny blaze, danny ketch, or robbie reyes?

i'd like that graphic design thread to be on ile, or to just remember to request 77 access

but that's where we talk all the trash on regular ilxors

did mikeybidness live in australia?

yes, he's on some old mongrel/sheepfuxor threads

(but now lives in the uk)

amazed by these posts

hey, then i've met him

i’m always weirded out seeing people rt mike like a famous guy.

you can retweet anybody

the famous get their twoots retwooted the same as the rest of us: one at a time

otwootm

people who mistakenly think 77 is a cliquey thing should direct their ire to actual snobby borads like 1p3 and Ask a Drunk!

Would you say that 77 covers the ground that the old "This is the thread where I say" threads used to?

lol at one point it did and someone started a thread complaining about it

BTW, it fills me with great ire to see people disparaging the "This is the thread where I say" series of threads when the only despicable aspect of the threads was that it had as one of its regulars a grifter. None of you motherfuckers seem to want to acknowledge that at the time those threads were ongoing, ILX was EXTREMELY cliqueish and if you didn't happen to live in one of the geographical areas whose own chatty threads overran ILE, you were fucked. Nowadays ILX doesn't need a TITTWIS thread because I see that the lines of discussion are far more catholic (e.g. the "Irrationally Angry" thread series), but back when they existed they were very much in fucking need. Y'all complain about 77 but it seems infinitely more open than ILX was back in those bad old days. Hell, even the Noize Boarders were more open and welcoming than the NYC/L.A./Australian/New Zealander/Glasgow/Londoner cliques, and they were practically KIDS at the time.

Anyway, as far as Chaki is concerned, the only person he owed an apology to in the era of "unveiling Luna" is Sam and if he's already done that he's fully in the clear and need not apologize to anyone else, least of all Luna. I will never forgive her for taking advantage of that particular unnamed person. He was a very kind man and didn't deserve a single bit of that.

you lived in the continental United States

You would have to be on 77 to compare how open it is to earlier incarnations of ILX. Ironically.

you lived in the continental United States

Yes, but thousands of miles away from NYC and L.A., smack dab in the middle of Texas. Oh, and I don't mention the Chicago crew (even though they had their own geographical thread series) because the vast majority of them also participated in the TITTWIS thread series so it's as if that clique never even existed in the first place.

It seems as though the only thing you'd need to do to join 77 is ask the person in charge? Which, BTW, I'll do right now just to see how easy it is. Will report back.

Yes, but thousands of miles away from NYC and L.A.

The middle of Texas is about one thousand miles from L.A. How many miles do you think gem lived from kate?

the only reason you're not on 77 is because you keep adamantly insisting that you wouldn't belong to any club that'd have you as a member

No, that's not it, I don't want to belong to a club where people have to ask to join.

Look, your argument only holds water if there had been a thread series devoted to people from the whole of the continental U.S., and a thousand miles might as well have been as far as we are to Mars to me back then, having just been saddled with the responsibility of caring for my mom as I did at the time. I couldn't even do a sleep study at a local clinic a handful of miles away without it being a huge production! TITTWIS had zero geographical restrictions. You could be several thousand miles apart but still converse about anything and everything. I just happened to bring the tone of the conversation down a lot because of the aforementioned untreated depression and anxiety issues, but pretty much everyone else was a solid conversationalist and everyone welcomed everyone else who was into conversing back and forth. I see this happening on a wider basis these days and that's awesome to me. This board feels infinitely more like a cohesive community. It should have always been this way.

No, that's not it, I don't want to belong to a club where people have to ask to join.

Then don't join... ? However, also don't complain about its existence when you refuse to do the one (ONE!!!) thing required to join.

I'm not joining and I'm not complaining.

does anyone have an actual question?

stuff like the 77 depression/anxiety thread is not elitist, wtf, it's for people who don't want to spill their shit in a totally public forum

and please don't give me some trenchant Edward Snowden "everybody can already see you" shit

who are gem and katie?

are we referring to the poster most recently known as Branwell B?

Probably. See, now the questions are coming thick and fast.

what are all of you doing? stop this!

dee is mega welcome on 77 though

who is branwell b
