I have been consumed by grief ever since I heard Neil Warnock was killed by a frozen ice javelin of piss

Logorrhea alert! I had some coffee this morning and this is a topic I'm obviously passionate about.

How did you find that old HB tweet?

― jaymc, Thursday, November 24, 2022 11:31 PM (yesterday) bookmarkflaglink

I googled "david brooks nas concert" and that tweet was the second result

my point was more: why limit yourself to these five, admittedly glorious, songs when there’s 36 tracks to dive into?

the answer to the thread is obviously dud along with kubrick and all the other great men of cinema whose abuse of women is glorified by film nerds. i'm sure the films are great in some sense, i'm also told birth of a nation and triumph of the will are great films

― Left, Thursday, 5 January 2023

Malevolent Arugula (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 6 January 2023 21:04 (one year ago) link

If Left is frequently being told Birth of a Nation and Triumph of the Will are great films, on a regular basis, their posting style makes a little more sense to me

عباس کیارستمی (Eric H.), Friday, 6 January 2023 21:17 (one year ago) link

Riefenstahl put automatic cameras on balloons and stuff and was an innovative director, but give me Rossellini's war trilogy any day over that shite.. even though he was a wrong 'un himself!

I mean, people were telling me that Intolerance was a good film on this very message board just a month ago.

sarahell, Friday, 6 January 2023 22:52 (one year ago) link

left is a great poster overall and i fully support their occasional trolls because honestly folks the sniffy armchair critic circlejerk here gets a little old imo

ꙮ (map), Friday, 6 January 2023 22:54 (one year ago) link

and yeah the auteur theory is kinda antihuman bs if you have a heart and any inkling of what creativity can be outside of the culture industry

ꙮ (map), Friday, 6 January 2023 22:57 (one year ago) link

Never said they aren't and I appreciate'em. To me, if I post you in this thread you've made it.

But I disagree lol with your conclusion. This place may have many things but it doesn't have armchair critic circle jerks. Look at the Glass Onion thread for proof.

Malevolent Arugula (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 6 January 2023 22:59 (one year ago) link

Contemporary criticism as journalism doesn't even pay for armchairs. All it does is teach us how to post Bette Davis gifs.

Haha I didn’t even read the thread or post in question but I’d rather read Left than a good portion of ilx, who do nothing but bump threads to complain about annoying phrases young people use or spam YouTube links. At least Left is interesting.

yes and it is very much in character for you to come and post on the very much in character thread and speak your mind about how most of us are mediocrities. What do you want on a decades old message board, doctoral dissertations in the chatbox?

Farewell to Evening in Paradise (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 6 January 2023 23:20 (one year ago) link

Oh, I don’t know. People making posts?

That'd be me, I believe...and she really loves me on baseball.

Nope, it’s not you, and I do love you on baseball! Unironically!

its time we started celebrating annoying phrases young people use

young people can use any phrase they feel like I am almost 34 and I no longer use phrases

― lag∞n,

Start the thread! I don't use phrases at all.

Malevolent Arugula (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 6 January 2023 23:29 (one year ago) link

This thread brings out the worst in everyone here, which means it also lives up to its title

عباس کیارستمی (Eric H.), Friday, 6 January 2023 23:35 (one year ago) link

you are permitted to use the stupid annoying phrases young people use if you are young at heart, but if they aren't any good then you can all fuck off!

The entire drama now focuses on Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), who must vote entirely for Kevin McCarthy. A present vote or not voting at all would leave McCarthy short of the majority and force another round of voting.
