Question Shart and the Stinksterians

i for one am shocked at the posts on this FAAAAAAAAART

Wins, if you’re worried an ILX thread may be a tad pointless then I have some bad news for you.

Reactions of persons sitting in the players' box after every point in a tennis match.

tennis matches

Tennis on the radio is a bit like a car chase in a book. Tennis on the internet is a whole other world of detachment.

Fuck Kanye. Get this fucker out of my face forever

Meta-commentary and critiques of the quality or direction of threads/posts

Just kill the alpaca already

one benefit of exterminating the alpaca is that it will upset some tory celeb arseholes

First I've herd of this

I've got no steak in this.

My partner is friends with the alpaca’s owner, has worked with her often, and holds her in high esteem, so I have a scraping of skin in the Geronimo game, Stanley Johnson notwithstanding. Otherwise, yeah, it’d be “Blackie The Donkey” territory.

The Olympics

I feel like there should be a failure Olympics for lazy people who are too clumsy and unfit to be any good at athletics. And if they win any medals they publicly reject them and go on sweary drunken rants about how shit their country is!

You understand how that immediately reads to us Brits

Onlyfans, people who use Onlyfans, people who do gross shit on Onlyfans and can't get paid enough, all that nonsense

What counts as a "song"

I have this same anxiety with "tracks" vs "songs"

It's one of those things where I think we should just all agree on one word and then move on

music thingy

whole conversation on the wrong thread, but YOLO

I remember these stuffy pedants in the theatre community who would SCREAM "original cast recording" whenever someone referred to a cast recording as a "soundtrack".

yes, they weren't wrong, but they were joyless fucks, and I kind of wanted to screw with them a few times and say 'IT'S NOT THE ORIGINAL CAST RECORDING, IT'S THE LONDON REVIVAL, YOU PEDANTIC SWIMMING POOL OF SHIT"

I feel like 'tracks' connotes recorded numbers, whereas a song can be sung around a campfire or on the stage

Then what's a record

tracks = mixing tools / techno loops / general fodder for a bigger set of music imo

The Met Gala

I'd never really been aware of it until this morning and now I'd say bolt the doors and chuck a grenade in there

What's a "lewks"? It's something that happens at the Met Gala, according to twitter.

Anything I'm demanded to "unmute!"

Drake

is it like some twee spelling of “looks”?

no he's a rapper

Nicki Minaj and her tweets.

cabinet reshuffles

Energy firms set up by money-grabbing public school Tory scumbags going bust.

I've had literally hundreds of aggressively rude door to door sales reps trying get me to switch to one of these fuckers for nigh on 15 years now. Usually their parting shot was a variation of "you carry on being ripped off then" lol
