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

why is that thread constantly in the most read threads list?

I don't know? It's got a woman in the title, but it's two years old and the reads are on-site reads. It doesn't make sense. The simpsons porn one only partly makes sense, but a lot of those reads are site reads too. Wait, I get that one, because it persists because of the most read threads page working in concert with google hits. But the other one with the girl I just don't get, unless it's a lesser version of the same phenomenon.

i just wonder if it's some quirk in the system. it's always there.

Those famous Unabomber types

oh, this is actually not a thread about the suggest ban system

I have had it up to here waiting for the Fingerhut catalogue to be remastered.

Fact: www.dhmo.org is a website dedicated to that stupid joke your chemistry teacher makes in high school about dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) being the most abundant, potentially dangerous chemical in the world.

Fact: according to double top-secret web analytics I saw for epa.g0v today, the number two referrer to EPA's website in the past 3 months was www.dhmo.org, and it's been in the top 5 for the past year.

i wish this thread was locked because i totally feel like this now.

like what

xp - like the subject of a thread i had second thoughts about posting on that was a serious clusterfuck.

I always have to stop myself going onto thread about bands I don't like to slag them off, as that wouldn't be doing anyone any good.

yeah - i hear you on that one.

I always have to stop myself going onto thread about Picthfork, I don't like to slag them off, as that wouldn't be doing anyone any good.

I always like going on the Pitchfork thread because it makes other people who allegedly don't read it cry.

?

talking about the "omg ppl are talking about Pitchfork, WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY" contingent

xxp - do you talk about provates or something?

oh. that's me, sometimes, too. i mean, i can't restrain myself and i should

Provates--their new album is great, much improved over that EP last year

kinda feel like derailing LJ's epic poll thread and protest vehemently that he should have included track 6 from the last Provates album.

Wait was the Neil

what? I didn't catch that. But my hearing's been for shit since I was a kid.

100 miles isn't really very far - there are people out here that commute that distance to work every day.

'shut up'

;)

ha - that is my US-centric view of things.

pennyroyal

I said basically the same thing when I got a ticket for not having my headlights on over the weekend driving my mom's truck.

i wouldn't mind being a mod, actually.

I just noticed this thread happening. So that comment happened near the beginning of the thread?

I can't

sometimes I think cat power is the only music i agree with

Agree with, like, the sentiment of the words? Or the entire musical aesthetic? Maybe I shouldn't ask. Maybe this should be a safe place.

I wasn't gonna ask what you can't, but this is a haven, so I didn't.

that guy is an old friend and collaborator of my boss. He's a good player.

Ned? You worried about pulling a Suzy?

Yeah, and violating my new self-imposed posting limitations.

He's brilliant. My fave is The Crux? I gave it to one of my best friends, so I might've forgotten the title since it's been away.

we have a couple of his albums at work - he's a good guy, a little grumpy. I haven't actually listened to his albums, but I've seen him live. This is the case with a lot of music for me, actually.

If "Hounds of Love" were released today, half of the people raving about it would hate it.

you have as much chance of becoming a mod as me

my ambitions are quite low - i'd feel thoroughly satisfied being mod of a sub-board only me and two other people post to. I just want to make up fake user names.

You can register fake gmail addys and make fake user accounts based on them. The mods will know, though, based on your IP.

too much work.

Everyone who plays an instrument even kind of well. People who speak two languages. People who do hard math. People in science.

*deletes long overly personal post probably seeking sympathy*

The guy in that anecdote was an artist in the Whitney Biennial.

I'd have given him at least an 8.

more like a small dune of sand in a depressingly flat desert

on second thought, 5 might be more accurate.

I wear a 34 waist. There was a time when I wore a 36 but then I got diabetes and lost like 25 pounds in a few weeks and have never gone back up.

Not a recommended weight loss regimen.

I have a baseless feeling that Ozempic® is gonna turn out to be something not that great in the future.. maybe not Thalidomide, but still a problem

it's not so great right now so that's a pretty accurate prediction

Can it get u hi?

Love the commercials where they pointedly refer to weight loss but then have to reiterate THIS IS FOR DIABETES, REPEAT THIS IS A DIABETES DRUG HONEST TO GOD

The elders of this site need to get in contact with the Catholic Church and share ideas on how to draw a younger crowd to their old and dying congregations. I'm crumbling under the weight of responsibility here guys

lol

Was Alfred-sized (29) until approximately the pandemic, am now "not technically obese" (34-ish, 5'9")
& I'm fine with that I just don't wanna get diabetes.
When I see photos of myself from 5 years ago I look way too skinny, like to a degree that it's super weird, even though I somehow felt a little pudgy then.
Guess the happy medium would be 32 waist

I know someone whose mom died from taking the old school diet pills… dexatrim I think? I remember the ads from when I was a kid

Talk about a recipe for abandonment issues and body image trauma… I mean, fuck those drugs and fat shaming

Amén!! ^^^^

I don’t know what my friend was prescribed ~15 years ago by a shady weight loss doc but they felt like taking 3 Yellow Jackets.
