I will say that it took me a while to get the hang of ILXese, and I still don't get the in-jokes a lot of the time. It is a distinct style, that was ahead of its time in some ways. Some of the abbreviations are internet-wide (like IMO); others are ILX-specific (like otm). Much of it predates text-speak. So in some ways the larger culture has caught up to where you folks already were.
To me, the archetypal ilx post is aggressively uncapitalized and unpunctuated; it is often zingy or eye-rollingly dismissive in nature, and includes at least one ILX-specific abbreviation. Often a non-obvious nickname base on a previous user name. My normal mode is full sentences with capitalization and punctuation (even in a text to my wife about picking up cat food). So a laconic ILXy post like
not an original idea tbh
is outside my normal idiom (compared to the rest of the web), and it can still often seem fresh and fun.

"_____ in ________ shocka" is extremely useful. I think I learned from ILX but I think of it as a pretty readily recognizable trope, perhaps mainly used by Britishes and specifically to Britishes' tabloids. I think even non-ILX0rz would understand it immediately, unlike HI DERE or bad & hated.

My husband and I use “pvmic” all the time in reference to actual behaviors or things said aloud.
Wow I thought otm was internet-wide.

otm is the greatest ilxor-ism that I'm always annoyed I can't actually use off-board.
― the last visible dot (Doctor Casino), Friday, 26 July 2024 11:14 (one year ago)
i once came across otm out in the wild (pre-elon twitter) and of course it turned out to be an ilxor posting under a different handle
the jd vance memes reminded me of gear's roommate, thusly
― Roz, Friday, 26 July 2024 11:27 (one year ago)
i feel like i say otm to people and nobody blinks but then nobody really expects to know what anybody else is talking about anymore. i say 'say' and 'blinks' but i dont mean like actually say out loud and blinking in response

I can't quite remember (or find it) but didn't the original trucker hat story involve a coach?

Was JD Vance the one fucking Gear’s roommate? Was it more like a three way with a three seater?!
― FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 26 July 2024 14:06 (one year ago)
yeah there's more to the story. see, the original story is that Gear running into the room and making an exclamation of disgust ended proceedings, but this was a cover-up to protect the innocent. Trucker Hat Vance and the roommate were going at it, when she realized that the sex she thought they were having was Vance jackhammering the couch cushions while yelling out the name of the model number and brand name.

Xps to slowsquatch
No if I’m saying it aloud, I say “posts very much in character”. I think it started because my husband was occasionally posting here when that thread was first posted? And it somehow became an ongoing joke between us.
― just1n3, Friday, 26 July 2024 15:32 (one year ago)
i have also had the sad moment where i use otm and no one knows what the fuck i am talking about.

I think I posted this on the Ornaldo Bloomps thread, but a while ago I was chatting with my housemates and one of them mentioned Orlando Bloom in passing, and it was as if they'd told the funniest joke of all time. I started giggling just at the name, and then I started laughing harder when I realized that the mere existence of Orlando Bloom was that funny to me, and then it turned into one of those laughing fits that you can't stop and I ended up having to leave the room.

"obtain much hard one" popped into my head recently. I wanted to find the origins of the phrase, and since search hasn't been working on the ilx mobile app, I just plugged it into Google search. All of the results were from ilxor.com, of course, except for one comment someone made on reddit in the past month! I tip my hat to this ilxor (current or former?) trying to revive a boner meme from 17 years ago and bring it to the masses.
― peace, man, Friday, 27 September 2024 14:11 (one year ago)
wow, and doing a search on ilx just now, it looks like no one's even mentioned it here in 9 years.

Something I look back on wistfully, even though I wasn't even part of it, is the constant title-riffing of the "mollify" threads on Idiot Thread Repository. Don't know if that counts as a trope, but it was ongoing good-natured manic goofiness for a while there in the late 2000s.
