gotta include the burrito post which made me snort like 3 times

Shit, long story, but back in 1998 me and about 14 other LA-area people who were HUGE fans of Eve 6 (you remember them - "wanna put my tender heart in a blender, watch it spin round to a beautiful oblivion, rendezvous and I'm through with you!"; great song) were paid by their label RCA Records to walk a few blocks down Hollywood Blvd to the Capitol Records building where there was a big release party going on for Garth Brooks because of three albums of his they were re-releasing that day. Me and all the other Eve 6 guys, we called ourselves The Sixers like it was like our gang name, and we did anything RCA told us to do to promote Eve 6. Anyway, one day that April, Capitol Records literally paid us $500 each to go walk down there, scope them all out, identify the weakest targets, and then get back to our rental car, drive it up to the Garth Brooks thing and run out and kidnap four of his fans, take them to the alley behind the Sunset Blvd Denny's, and beat them to within inches of their life with baseball bats. RCA thought this would somehow increase Eve 6's record sales! Of course we all did this without hesitation because hey it was 1998, MDMA was a new drug (that we were all taking), we were fueled by that and the propulsive energy of Eve 6, and frankly we needed the money!!!

Anyway, yeah, cliffs notes version for the thread: Eve 6 fans call themselves "Sixers," or at least we did back in '98.

Okay now I see what the problem is. My (admittedly lame/lazy) was intended for the original thread (which has essentially become one extremely long stupid in-joke about Insane Clown Posse).

I never intended it to go into the Excelsior thread. Which is, and should be, reserved for things that are actually funny in their own right. I guess I got confused by the verbatim repost of the entire Sixer thing here.

Apologies. I will go and appropriately scourge my flesh with nettles and vinegar.

Carry on.

This might be my least favorite thread on ilx. Total non-issue at best, akin to collaboration at worst.

collaboration in what sense?

― sarahell, Saturday, September 19, 2020 4:10 PM (one hour ago) bookmarkflaglink

ohhh as in "collaboration" like in the phrase "collaborate with Nazis to commit genocide"? ... and not "collaborate on an interdisciplinary performance piece involving poetry, dance, and ambient electronica" ???
