― haitch, Monday, 1 September 2008 00:54 (sixteen years ago)

xp corndog central

― Autumn Almanac, Monday, 1 September 2008 00:55 (sixteen years ago)

boys night was sadly scuppered by me pulling a muscle in my neck

― electricsound, Monday, 1 September 2008 01:05 (sixteen years ago)

If it was corndog central, I'm not surprised you pulled a muscle.

― moley, Monday, 1 September 2008 01:06 (sixteen years ago)

oh man, imagine if they renovated melbourne central so it was exclusively a dagwood outlet

― haitch, Monday, 1 September 2008 01:13 (sixteen years ago)

No dissing of Ned on the mongrel thread!

Yeah!

(Anyway thank you for the explanation. But I hope those guys realize how silly that movie title looks.)

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 1 September 2008 01:13 (sixteen years ago)

Ned, it looks silly here too. For a bra is a bra, even down under.

― moley, Monday, 1 September 2008 01:21 (sixteen years ago)

russell crowe wore womens' undergarments while recording his voice-over parts, but the producers decided that 'bra and panties boys' sounded ridiculous.

― haitch, Monday, 1 September 2008 01:22 (sixteen years ago)

their decision was aided by their aversion to a bunch of fives from russell.

― estela, Monday, 1 September 2008 02:07 (sixteen years ago)

Two redundancies today. One of them was under me when I was managerial. The mood throughout the building is horrible.

― Autumn Almanac, Monday, 1 September 2008 07:29 (sixteen years ago)

I recall The Chaser doing a HAHA STUNT HAHA with the real life Bra Boys with one of them wearing a bra asking if they could join the gang and almost got the shit beat out of them for it.

― King Boy Pato, Monday, 1 September 2008 09:45 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah, as if an internet celebrity like myself has time to read your posts.

― King Boy Pato, Monday, 1 September 2008 12:09 (sixteen years ago)

i think it should be posted on every mong thread.

― estela, Monday, 1 September 2008 12:28 (sixteen years ago)

SJ (my 8 yr old daughter, scratching at green streak on lino): What's this?
Me: It's nail polish, R dropped it on the floor last night. I can't get rid of it.
SJ: Nail polish remover.
Me (patiently): No, not nail polish remover - it's actually nail polish.
SJ (even more patiently): No. Dad. Use nail polish remover to get rid of it.
Me (completely gobsmacked): Wow, of course!! You're a lot smarter than me.
SJ: Well, I'm a girl, so... (shrugs)

ilx has been shit today.

― Autumn Almanac, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 07:23 (sixteen years ago)

I hate to say this but for me ILX has been...well, not shit, but I'm just bored with the whole thing lately :/

― Trayce, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 10:07 (sixteen years ago)

I dont think it's anyone's fault, I dunno, I just dont get what I used to out of here.

― Trayce, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 10:07 (sixteen years ago)

Today was particularly slow. I think people often grow out of ILX. Except for people like me of course.

― moley, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 10:18 (sixteen years ago)

I had that Trayce. A couple of years off seems to have rejuvenated my interest.

― Autumn Almanac, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 11:38 (sixteen years ago)

I like ILX most of the time, although I don't have time to post much these days. But sometimes all the selfrighteousness and self-absorbed wanking on (of ilxors other than the mongrels of course) gets a bit much for me and I have to take a little holiday from ILX. Then after a while I come back and everyone's changed their names and I don't know who anyone is so my interest gets rejuvenated too!

― gem, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 12:19 (sixteen years ago)

ilx got all meta again this week. Clusterfuck threads and bannings galore. You missed nothing.

― Autumn Almanac, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 12:20 (sixteen years ago)

all that stuff goes over my head completely. i don't even know what clusterfuck means.

― gem, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 12:47 (sixteen years ago)

― gem, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 12:50 (sixteen years ago)

Now spring is a clusterfuck. Everyone's at it.

― moley, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 13:20 (sixteen years ago)

Clusterfuck is just anything that has the involvement of too many people and is a disaster. Broader than ilx, is that one.

― Autumn Almanac, Tuesday, 2 September 2008 22:06 (sixteen years ago)

LOL speaking of cheese, last night R0b played me some horrible, terrible IDM artist doing a rather chiptuney cover of "Africa" by toto. Only he did it quite straight, just with shitty synths and a REALLY WUSSY SINGING VOICE oh god it was horrible.

moley, did you see that unanswered threads are in bold like they used to be, that is good news for pachinko, it adds a visually exciting element for player and spectator alike.

― estela, Saturday, 13 September 2008 02:20 (sixteen years ago)

I think you'll agree with me that thread pachinko is the real winner, estela. I mean, we can honestly say that, though there's a bit of argy bargy, a bit of rivalry on the field, maybe some sauce shed for the team, in the end this is all good for pachinko itself. Aesthetic touches like the bolding of unanswered threads are exciting to young girls in particular, they like the aesthetics of it, and I'm confident in time that female thread pachinko will thrive in Australia and create world beaters just as it has in the hockey. Overall though my feeling is that a touch of flash, a touch of panache - yes, maybe even US-style showmanship - will bring more young kids of both sexes to the game. As long as we can make it exciting for the kids at school, tomorrow's champions, as long as they're saying, 'Yes, I want my threads to go unanswered', we can be confident of a great future for the sport.

They sometimes have to manually flip it over on the st kilda junction thing, and on the st kilda rd/carlisle st intersection. I love the big "CLOKK" sound it makes, I wish I could sample it.

― Trayce, Wednesday, 17 September 2008 06:38 (sixteen years ago)

As in, it should work automagically but sometimes it fails I guess.

On another note, why dont we get any of the awesome trams with tons of space and poles and seats like the 112/109 type trams? I hate the shitty rattly new ones on my route.

I think I saw an early version of this doing the rounds in about 1989 in a club at Taylor Square - about 6 boys, in hip hop gear, teaching each other the running-on-ice footslip thing. The music was hiphouse all night - so maybe there was a hip hop influence there in the early days.

Did you know Rob did a remix of that song for a PG competition on the RealWorld site (his label). R didn't win the people's vote, but he was one of 8 or so PG selected himself for special mention as the ones he preferred. In fact R got the longest ramble of all from PG for doing a really innovative mix (it was completely droney, ambient and nothing like the original song, using timestretching)

He has a personally signed DVD box set and video of PG saying he rules to show for it, which is omg :)

Adam: I wish I could *do something* about my feet. I'd walk around on inflatable pillows if it meant I could stand for more than an hour without wanting to cry from the pain. It really gets that bad. And even when I get off my feet, they burn and tingle for an hour or so afterwards, ugh.

― Trayce, Tuesday, 23 September 2008 21:38 (sixteen years ago)

I must say, I saw Dylan Moran last time he toured and he wasn't very funny. Dunno if he was having an off night or what but the first half of the show seemed to largely consist of saying how shit Australia was, which while made in jest, got a little tiresome after we hit the 40 minute mark.

I live with BigLurks and his gf who are taking some classes abroad. I'm doing nothing with my life so they were like, "hey wanna come, too", and that's how that happened. (And yeah, Flying Nun and LVD had a small bit to do with it ;), though it was really all the gorgeous landscape and the fact that it's one of the more welcoming countries if you're looking to live overseas.)

:( Auckland sucks balls.

Although, at least for a seppo like you there is an additional fast food chain (Wendy's) there to the rest of Aust/NZ.

Yeah they are often quite good to deal with (also v bad at times though). They especially like it if all your tax affairs are completely up to date. they also like it if you tell them you're v keen to wipe off the debt, but you've currently got a lot of other commitments etc etc

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 17 October 2008 05:43 (sixteen years ago)

from my experince it really does come down to whether you deal with a fuckhead or not.

a client recently broke her arrangement and she dealt with a total a-hole who would only accept a much higher repayment, and also wanted her to fill out this lengthy bullshit form. She said she got really upset etc

then last week she called them back, dealt with a different guy and he just said, 'lodge your 2008 return and the current arrangement will stay in place.'

Oh ok so accountants can arrange payment plans? my friend D told me he got hit with a bill (they overpaid his return, the idjits) and the ATO (directly, not accountant) said "too bad, pay by due date, you can dispute it later but pay it NAO".

I havent done a return for 4 years :/ but apart from a piddly bit of student loan i was/am actually owed a fair bit of return I think. When I left ay ay pee tee apparently they sodded somehting up and all of us who got a package got a bigass return that year (in the order of 3k), I really should do that return shouldnt i?

― Trayce, Friday, 17 October 2008 05:58 (sixteen years ago)

Used to arrange them, boss doesn't want us doing it anymore, which is good for me coz it's not overly fun.

and yes lodge your returns, if you were only a wage/salary earner then there's every chance you'll get refunds. (unless you fucked up telling you're employer abt HECS/student loan situation)

― wilter, Friday, 17 October 2008 06:01 (sixteen years ago)

is it possible to get one's employer to pay more tax on your behalf than you're supposed to? i could really do without having to pay the additional medicare levy as a tax bill every year

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 17 October 2008 06:02 (sixteen years ago)

the new levy surcharge bill was passed yesterday, so you won't pay the surcharge until you make $75k from now on.

― wilter, Friday, 17 October 2008 06:03 (sixteen years ago)

also i recall that there is a way, but it's prob not even worth organising

― wilter, Friday, 17 October 2008 06:04 (sixteen years ago)

trayce if you do lodge and you're payable, you'll be hit with shortfall interest which sux balls.

― wilter, Friday, 17 October 2008 06:07 (sixteen years ago)

ah oh well. sadly i would still be eligible to pay the surcharge, which probably makes my predicament all the more pathetic

cheers for the advice d00d

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 17 October 2008 06:08 (sixteen years ago)

It's easy to organise an extra payment, I did that when I had a second job last year so as to avoid drifting into the next HECS bracket and ending up with a debt. I think I just had to ask the employer to pay an extra $abc on my tax file number each week or something along those lines... I don't think there was even any forms to fill in. Worked like a charm.

i hate getting slugged with the HECS-related tax debt, so frustrating. HECS is frustrating full stop... last year I think I made about $500 headway on the debt once the price-indexing was calculated. bewdy, that's a big impact on $20,000. And this year, my income has gone up considerably so now I'm paying 7% of my pre-tax income, which is quite a chunk of money! At least it'll get paid off quicker I guess.

Another good thing about this place where I work is that there are lots and lots of catered meetings. Which means lots of leftover food and general emails saying stuff like 'Sandwiches, fruit, scones and jam on level 3, help yourselves'.

A friend of mine recently jumped on stage with another friend's band. That band was mainly instrumental but had one song with a bit of vocal. Anyway, this guy hopped on stage smashed and basically howled through the open mic for the entire set. Everyone was waiting for everyone else to ask him to leave and the sound guy thought it was meant to happen.

Hey mongs - esp kate if you're there - where can you print photos of jpegs saved to disc from a Mac? I may have this garbled, but apparently R was told at a photo printing place that no-one prints from discs created on macs, only pcs, and only from TIF files, not jpegs. Sounds very odd, but what would I know.

― moley, Wednesday, 29 October 2008 04:22 (sixteen years ago)

i've definitely gone to a camera shop and printed from jpgs in the past, although that was a few years ago now..

can't speak for mac discs though. what about a usb stick?

Hey Moley, it was obviously a shitty printing place. I use a professional lab up here (although they probably will service Sydney too if you wanted to go that route) called digilab.com.au. They only want jpegs never tiffs and there is no difference between a jpeg produced on a mac or pc.

Are the images just on the disc as jpgs or did yr Mac create some weird-ass photo album that maybe threw the machine?

Just on the disc as jpegs as far as I know. Perhaps there was something freaky happening, I don't know. I got the story via R who is famously technophobic so maybe something was lost in the translation.

Is trick or treating solely an American thing? We used to do it as kids in England, around 1971-76, and I'd always believed it was essentially a European tradition in origin.

Trayce, you don't see me celebrating Guy Fawkes or banks or whatever they celebrate there. Kids here do the trick/treat thing because they watch too much US shit on television, not because it has any bearing on our own traditions.

― Davina McCall's knickers (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 2 November 2008 23:46 (sixteen years ago)

Moley, there's a Fry & Laurie sketch from the '80s in which they both lay into some trick/treat kids for trying to be American. So who knows.

― Davina McCall's knickers (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 2 November 2008 23:49 (sixteen years ago)

Halloween (or Hallowe’en) is a holiday celebrated on October 31. Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, ghost tours, bonfires, costume parties, visiting haunted attractions, carving jack-o'-lanterns, reading scary stories, and watching horror movies. Irish and Scottish immigrants carried versions of the tradition to North America in the nineteenth century.

Anyway :)

And ok, if its only us following US holidays you have issue with then fair do, but I have noticed you go on and on and on about the BBC and british TV a hell of a lot, and I cant help but wonder why that gets a pass but US culture doesnt...

Yes - to quote from that celebrated goth cartoon, there's not enough people supporting the scene these days.

We've been offered a coupla nights at a Melb goth night. We want to come back to Melb but our experience with playing to goths half our age is that it doesn't work for either party.

Yeah I've never done the live bands at goth nites thing. Depends on the genre you're pushing and which club you hit up. I know quite a few ppl who'd dig Chezza but none of these baby scenesters. They seem to be all about the fricking EBM. Still.

Where’s yr work? Good excuse to move somewhere more central for summery activities than Strathfield.

City! Central would be nice but I would like a) some money left over to piss away and b) somewhere to park me car (not that I'm precious but I don't want to spend 40 minutes circulating for one either). But I certainly won't be going further out than Stratty either.

about 5-6 years back, a family friend of mine called me up to see if i wanted to be a runner at the football club she works at as a physio. i thought about it for a while, but said no - i mean, can you imagine how ridic i woulda looked, running around with my lack of fitness?? - then found i'd really dodged a bullet later as the club was the focus of a weekly segment on sports tonight for the entire year!

Ugh I hate that! Rob just bought a new laptop and he's been swearing at it for days as he sets everything back up. I have to admit though - when you have the right hardware, Vista is actually pretty good, as long as you know how to disable all the hand holding, its filesystem is kinda funky and you can put a MacOS dock in it.

― Trayce, Tuesday, 25 November 2008 02:11 (sixteen years ago)

You can put a MacOS dock in anything.

Windows 7 is meant to be Vista without all the hand-holding, so it should be okay.

Yeah so I've heard, if I ever get a new lappy I might try it - I love XP, it is solid as a rock for me (I pretty much never have crashes or install problems, have never had virii, etc), but I'm tiring of the oldschool windows look and I like the shiny.

Uch, I am constantly worried about skin cancer... it runs in the family, I'm a pale little ranga under all this hairdye and whatnot, and I have quite a few dubious spots and things.

But the last time I went to a skin specialist, he dismissed me after the most cursory look over my skin with "why did you waste time coming to see me". That was when I was a teenager. It put me off specialists.

Well, I dunno, I'm not sure what to compare it to exactly, but I personally know maybe a dozen ppl or more who've done modelling semi or fully professionally that are in that scene... I dunno if I could say the same for the general indie scene but tbh I guess I dont know as many ppl there?

xxp I see what you mean, but, when I was in the goth scene (buth not a goth) in the '90s I came across some stunning women, but once the make-up faltered and the push-up bras came off they were super ordinary. P'raps they're different now.

joezbar ON 18 Nov 2008 11:49:29AM Far too small for my liking. Not enough cushion for pushin.

haha it should be pretty clear by this point that tall thin pointy women certainly don't :D

Roffle, damn good point, what was I thinkin!!

― Trayce, Friday, 28 November 2008 00:26 (sixteen years ago)

I have some very specific requirements in my women:

1. They should like me
2. ?
3. WORLD DOMINATION

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 00:41 (sixteen years ago)

hahah

lol on that "alternative" modelling site. enter search criteria: 36 inch to 44 inch. no results

Try searching for BBW?

On the stuff white people controversy:

* I found it funny
* it describes 90% of the people I work with here at this nonprofit organisation, including me
* the links to 'rap songs whitwe people like' have several tracks I played at the 80's themed office party last year
* the office party the year before that was also 80's themed
* I say 'don't talk to me until I've had my coffee' all the time
* those expensive sandwiches - they are present at every majoy meeting and function we have.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 00:54 (sixteen years ago)

Oh yeah, and girls with bangs - yum.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 00:55 (sixteen years ago)

they don't have a bbw section :(

anyway not THAT sort of modelling silly

Homeless people could do well to visit white-collar kitchens at 3:30pm.

― I'm Richard (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 28 November 2008 00:56 (sixteen years ago)

OTM.

They could help themselves to heaving abandoned plates of pumpkin, feta and rocket sandwiches, artfully mingled with chicken, camembert and grape jelly sandwiches, with only slightly stale sourdough bread, cut in prettily diagonal wedges.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 00:59 (sixteen years ago)

I am getting hungry for sandwich.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 01:00 (sixteen years ago)

i fancy some pie, or a taco

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 28 November 2008 01:21 (sixteen years ago)

I had my sandwich. It was not an expensive one. Sadly no tacos around these parts. Plenty of laksa and pho but.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 01:54 (sixteen years ago)

PHO

― I'm Richard (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 28 November 2008 01:55 (sixteen years ago)

pho sho'

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 28 November 2008 01:58 (sixteen years ago)

I had a rather disapointing lunch and now I feel vaguely ill.

― Trayce, Friday, 28 November 2008 02:36 (sixteen years ago)

I hate disappointing lunches. Remember my inferior laksa?

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 02:43 (sixteen years ago)

Ah yes, I do recall that sorry day.

― Trayce, Friday, 28 November 2008 02:45 (sixteen years ago)

Today's C grade meal was purported to be beef burgundy and jasmine rice, but the beef was stringy and chewy, the rice a bit final and dried out, and it had bugger all flavour.

The drawback of being such a good cook (if I do say so myself) is nothing else much comes up to par.

― Trayce, Friday, 28 November 2008 02:46 (sixteen years ago)

Ouch. Sounds very like a canteen meal, or a plane meal.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 02:48 (sixteen years ago)

It was, rather :( which is a shame, the place I got it from is usually not too bad as bain-marie type food around here goes.

― Trayce, Friday, 28 November 2008 02:52 (sixteen years ago)

i thought you made your lunch to bring in

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 28 November 2008 02:52 (sixteen years ago)

Sometimes I do... yesterday I made a lentil and antipasto salad which I had with baby spinach, feta and tomato slices.

― Trayce, Friday, 28 November 2008 02:58 (sixteen years ago)

I was going to ask if it came from a bainmarie. Been hanging around too long in there probably.

My sandwich had cucumber, egg, beetroot, cheese and a little onion. No lettuce. Lettuce is boring. And tomato ain't what she used to be.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 03:00 (sixteen years ago)

Hah, my lunch was what's left in the fridge. Ah, the life of the unemployered.

― I'm Richard (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 28 November 2008 03:05 (sixteen years ago)

slightly discoloured baking soda for lunch again

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 28 November 2008 03:06 (sixteen years ago)

"All we have left to eat is baking soda and capers.... and here it is!"

― Trayce, Friday, 28 November 2008 03:08 (sixteen years ago)

Today was soggy lettuce. I used to joke about that being poor/bachelor food and there I am actually eating it for lunch.

Trayce, get lemonade stat.

― ɔɐuɐɯlV uɯnʇnV (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 28 November 2008 03:09 (sixteen years ago)

and then get vodka

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 28 November 2008 03:10 (sixteen years ago)

Grate bachelor snack: peanut butter in piece of soggy lettuce. Then vodka.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 03:11 (sixteen years ago)

i wish i wasn't too unwell to get wasted

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 28 November 2008 03:46 (sixteen years ago)

my lunch yesterday was an iced coffee (no winning ute cap:( ), microwaved week old Quarter Pounder which had been in the freezer, and a can of coke.

You should all stop complaining.

― milling through the grinder, grinding through the mill (S-), Friday, 28 November 2008 03:48 (sixteen years ago)

I'm not complaining, they are. I liked my lunch.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 03:51 (sixteen years ago)

microwaved week old Quarter Pounder

Hang on, WHAT?

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 03:51 (sixteen years ago)

Holy FUCK

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 03:52 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah thats pretty hardcore... doesnt maccas like... turn into vulcanised rubber after half an hour!?

― Trayce, Friday, 28 November 2008 03:55 (sixteen years ago)

Forget that guy who liked to chew up a cracker and put the resultant paste between two other crackers - this raises the bar considerably.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 03:57 (sixteen years ago)

oh no, never forget

i just had a 30cm length of pizza!!

― fela cooties (haitch), Friday, 28 November 2008 03:57 (sixteen years ago)

it had been in the freezer... but still... If you thought the cheese was some sort of weird artificial construct beforehand...

I needed it though, I went out for vegan tibetan food the night before.

― milling through the grinder, grinding through the mill (S-), Friday, 28 November 2008 04:03 (sixteen years ago)

Well fair enough then.

― moley, Friday, 28 November 2008 04:05 (sixteen years ago)

it was pretty rancid. okay. but it's something to cross off the lists of life achievements.

― milling through the grinder, grinding through the mill (S-), Friday, 28 November 2008 04:07 (sixteen years ago)

in case of vegan cuisine, break ice

― fela cooties (haitch), Friday, 28 November 2008 04:08 (sixteen years ago)

"increased competition from subsidised importers selling frozen ham."

fuck this shit.

― milling through the grinder, grinding through the mill (S-), Friday, 28 November 2008 04:24 (sixteen years ago)

subsidised importers

oh THAT'S such a great idea

― thereminimum chips (electricsound), Friday, 28 November 2008 04:26 (sixteen years ago)

lol, "capitalism"

― fela cooties (haitch), Friday, 28 November 2008 04:44 (sixteen years ago)

Give a damn! About yer ham!

i'm guilty of perhaps caring TOO much

I made Osso Bucco the other night, it was pretty good.

So ends my contribution for this week.
