Posts you had second thought about and decided not to post - put them here

It's very funny that the top two threads on ILM right now are about Grimes and Amanda Palmer, 'cause there's about a fingernail's worth of difference between them IMO.

I was tempted to post something similar, although we obv should call out male narcissists with the same zeal (and I'm not sure we always do)

Time to revive the musical challop thread?

"Narcissists make for excellent musicians due to their actualisation of the ubermensch fantasy!"

A Mensch is just a human being in German so it checks out.

i take no pleasure in reporting this

Jay-Z - Big Pimpin'

palmer does not sound anything like grimes to me - if you just mean that they're both women musical artists who ilmers are inclined to dislike for extra-musical reasons like their personalities or the controversies they've been involved in.... i expect more!

ranking member? more like wanking member amirite

Alternative faps

ffs, france

Oh look, Taylor's there too now ;)

Ban Pound, ban Lovecraft, ban Mishima, ban Hamsun, ban D'Annunzio, ban Eliot, ban Jünger…

I mean

Unlike most of these artists, who have officially embraced the movement and sometimes shoot women on weekends.

Holy shit, what a long, drawn out death!

i find david muir to be incredibly lame, like a cross between the American Psycho dude and idk Hymie from Get Smart

My contempt for snide bullshit merchant Clive James is that bad I feel I should keep it out of the obituary thread

Wow such thought-provoking picks, I dearly hope a Pulitzer's underway.

RIP. What a hill to die on.

imagine if Obama had ever placed 23rd in Pazz & Jop; the arguments would just be starting

more into drone iirc

a cross between david cross and jamie muir

the creatures outside looked from rockist to poptimist, and from poptimist to rockist, and from rockist to poptimist again; but already it was impossible to say which was which

waaaaaah, stop discriminating against tuneless white people shouting about bollocks

i clicked on that article and i realized it'd been a month since i read any news media articles and in particular saw anybody talking about donald trump.

who the fuck even still talks to trump supporters by _choice_? let alone actually listens to or writes down what they say? i mean the president is the president and i guess you have a fourth estate obligation to tediously chronicle every deranged utterance that springs forth from his mouth, but talking to - LISTENING to, taking SERIOUSLY - his supporters? i'm worried that you have the brain worms now too and i have to stop talking to you now too.

I only know one Trumper IRL and I only left him as a FB friend because I enjoy watching my friends give him a beatdown every time he writes something stupid.

Against stupidity the very gods
Themselves contend in vain.

so sick of the use of idiomatic language or indeed all spoken language, unless you're holding up a slab and saying "slab" you are some kind of monster

Liz Kendall

lol otm

s gonna be a real popcorn.gif this

god forbid

is that how old each of them is?

That Desi Arnaz line made me lol.

I’m only partway through ep 1, but I’m already irrationally angry. The music gear at the USO show is all period-correct, right down to the cymbal stands, which are usually an afterthought, and will take me right out of a film/show if they’re wrong, so props for getting that right. But ffs, the ‘70s Musser logo on the vibraphone...I hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

I just hope the character based on Carol Kaye isn’t playing a bass with a pointy headstock.

I can feel it farting in the air tonight

Kevin? How disappointing. They should have named him Bob or Mat or Art

i see we're over yesterday's little moment of almost clarity anyways

You really can't see what you're doing, can you?

Why would any network (except fox) have Bachmann on their show?
