try out your new posting style here

just a thread for when you're gonna change up your game...been thinking this over and i think ellipsis are the way to go for me...just a much more laid back feel...whatever yr into that's cool w/me kinda deal...check it out

underrated m@tt styles I have imitated

it's election day...everybody go vote...fuck i hate all these candidates though...irredeemable assholes...tear down the system...hold up, the ellipsis isn't working like it's supposed to...shit

I was thinking about all my news feed through Google Translate and got several times before sending them to the table.

maybe I'll just go for a more interrogative look though? that might be, maybe, less cloying? or not? just kinda put it right out there on the table that idk? and be just asking qs no matter what I'm saying? always asking questions?

We are not amused at your attempts to break your conditioning.

am considering trying to write properly, with periods and capitalization etc. we'll see...

fuck yeah...my thread got banaka to come to the party...what the fuck's been goin on banaka...I know you gotta be stoked today because we're all one day closer to the compost heap, am I right or what...I gotta take care of some business today...late with some bills...hope I don't get fined

Consider the semicolon; I like it!

THAT WAS NOT SWAG. SWAG.

lol dayo could be an impressions comic of ilx posters...think of the money...the fame...the status...man

the money; the fame; the status; man

might finally get an invite to 78 tbh

Doesn't Local Garda tend to favour ellipses? not sure but there are definitely a few ellipsis fans around here.......

TAKING THIS TO A NEW LEVEL. SWAG.

HOW FAR CAN I GO BEFORE I BREAK ILX. I DONT EVEN FUCKING KNOW. GOLF WANG.

yeah i love ellipses!

thought about ______ _______ more but it can be _________ as ___ don't always ___ what you ____

going to start having more controversial/retarded opinions about music so that people feel the need to ask my opinion about every new album (in the vein of "hey Geir what do you think about this new Autechre album LOL peed my pants LOL"). also going to use the phrase "LOL peed my pants LOL" a lot.

oh man blueski...that is up on some next level ish...makes me wanna hit vapezilla and then try reading your posts...think about...shit the government doesn't want us to know...redacted...lmao

love this thread.

...that's another element to my new style...using "lmao"...bringin it back...lmao-style

fuck everybody, by the way. bunch of scumbags.

ah, that's better.

I am con$idering u$ing dollar $ign$ everytime I u$e the letter $

^ classy!

gonna start rating people's posts pitchfork style, but will be deciding the scores before the posts actually appear

\/ 6.4

*thinks about ripping that meme where everybody speaks in third person action quotes*

*rips that meme*

i stand by my score. you've got to ask yourself whether people will still be reading that dayo post in 10 or even 5 years.

I read that post and at first I was lol'ing...but then...I got distracted...and then it was like I totally forgot about it...but it was good while it lasted...so yeah...6.4 seems about right...fuck al davis btw...lmao

yo, thinkin bout taking on a faux-casual bro-tone. feel like it could be pretty sweet

really getting somewhere with this, my intolerability quotient should be through the roof by nightfall

cla$$y

was thinkin about posting in my mom's voicemail style... preface a simple point with a paragraph or two of extraneous details about my day -- the traffic on the way to work, that thing the cat did last night, how grandma's doing, etc

Capitalizing Every Word Like A Book Title And Never Using Ending Punctuation Like Periods or Question Marks Maybe Also Adding A Signature I Think I Have Found My New Posting Style Everyone

^More Ways to be an Asshole

Awesome! I've been doing ellipses for years...!

(...you're not making fun of me, are you, aerosmith?)

one thing I do want to try out is my RTX-bomb...!

whenever a thread is going really bad (such as the Salem or the PRR one), I just:

In the collage there's a tiny part that says, "Yin Jim, W. Lester Duo, and the Bones of a Dead Coyote." Is that related to the song "Yin Jim vs. the Vomit Creature"?
NH: There's this psychic agent team for this one cause who are against the other group of agents who are trying to control things. Both sides are trying to control freedom, yin and yang. One side is lead by Yin Jim and he has a fucked-up sidekick named W. Lester Duo, like a snake-oil salesman. They're heroin addicts. Everyone's a heroin addict in the future. He's waiting for Yin Jim to come back from copping. Yin Jim's out with the Bones of a Dead Coyote, the coyote spirit that's Yin Jim's master, you see what I'm saying?

Sort of.

NH: Two guys and a dog. It's a kid's story. One guy's a Parker Stevenson kind of guy, and the other's...

JH: Like Sancho Panza.

NH: But weirder even. They're walking on the beach on the way home. These other agents are looking for these life-giving crystals. Reanimating crystals. It's a classic sci-fi image, you know what I mean?

Most assuredly.

NH: These agents from the other side who are fighting for world domination, but more like controlling people and systemizing everything, they attack Yin Jim and the Bones of a Dead Coyote because they think they've got the crystals on them, but the crystals are at home and all they've got is heroin. Back home, W. Lester Duo can't wait anymore so he starts looking around for the stash and he finds the crystals. He thinks they're heroin. Since Yin Jim's been waylaid by these other agents, he goes ahead and does it up. Cut back and the Bones are just laying there because Yin Jim's been taken away. He has to be in the vicinity so there can be a strong psychic bond to animate him. Yin Jim's concentration was broken by the agents interrogating him about where the crystals are. W. Lester Duo does so much of the crystals that it makes him puke. The crystals come out with his vomit and goes down into the sewer system and this sewage-vomit creature rises out of the San Francisco Bay. Meanwhile, Yin Jim gets beat up and hit so hard that it releases some psychic anger and reanimates the Bones, who run to W. Lester Duo, who's laying in the bathroom all fucked up. The coyote passes on the energy, because they're all psychic agents. Psychic warriors. You know what I'm saying?

I follow you.

NH: So they rescue Yin Jim. They find out what happened and W. Lester Duo's like, "Gee, I'm sorry, I didn't know it was crystals. I thought it was heroin. " Yin Jim's like, "Do you know what you've done? You've created the Vomit Creature that's terrorizing the city." They do battle with it, vanquish it, but not until after it kills a bunch of people on Broadway and Columbus. Trashes City Lights bookstore. Goes into the Garden of Eden, starts rampaging onstage, kidnaps one of the girls, who they accidentally kill during the battle. You know, "It's a close shot, but I think I can get it. Oh, shit. Missed." They give her a shot of the life-giving crystals so she's alive again, but she's all fucked up. This go-go dancer who's really sexy but she's cut on her tits so they're flapping around and she's full of bullet holes, covered with Vomit Creature marks that can't be removed. Then they go into a bar, Mr. Bing's, to celebrate another day in the secret psychic service. Now it's four people - the go-go dancer, the zombie, Yin Jim , W. Lester Duo, and the Bones of a Dead Coyote.

...and the thread is fixed...just like that!!!

I was afraid I might not make it here, you know. I just wrote in from Oregon, and (boy!) are my stylistics tired. Hey! An ilxor, a hipster, a vegan, a balck metal dude and a goth all walked into a bar and the bartender looks at them and says... "What is this?... Some kind of joke?"

For a time and a space perhaps I should renounce authorship of my posts and contribute nothing but lolcat pics with embedded twee messages. I'll get back to you when I decide whether this is a good idea.

Hang tight. Still mulling it over.

all tensed up, it's like waiting for a fluffy freddy krueger 'jump'

(...you're not making fun of me, are you, aerosmith?)

...no...it is not my style to make fun of ppl...my least favorite thing about ilx the last five years or so is all the dudes who think the whole point is to make fun of ppl...h8 that

CAVEAT: Making fun of people is awesome when it makes you laugh.

After considerable mulling and remulling, followed by trepidation, more mulling and not a few tears (I leave it as an exercise to the reader to slash his way through the thicket of ambiguity involved in that final event's description, playing their own Alexander to my prose's Gordian Knot), I have decided to postpone the lolcat stylings until such time as they may be rendered entirely in computer generated 3D.

I thank you for your kindly attention. I am done with it now. You can have it back. Yes. It was like that when I found it.

i'm gonna change nothing cos im pretty fucking stoked about my style.

There was an idea I had of a day where ilx posters imitate another's posting style, like, just for the sheer love of life and ilx and to show respect for the more subtle styles of various posters, but people would just imitate the usual suspects and it would be lamentably unchill I guess.

HI DERE has quite a distinctive writing style (within the context of ilx at least)....i doubt many could successfully imitate it

that was sposed to be R ET URNS

not a very efficient posting, u c

No more Mr. Nice Guy--I hate you all. And I especially hate Obama. And Up in the Air--it's worse than Nazi propaganda. The only things I care about are Inland Empire, Alice Cooper, and VORP.

(Let me see if that takes.)

seems kinda unchill

that charles kuralt thing is pretty wau

(which is to say, i'm into it)

lolz just opened the thread to say I always wish I had posted in Celine style ellipsis!

Either that or each post in a paragraphless rant, Bernhard style, but I don't think I have the energy

i'm always changing my posting style

this is the new wave

right here

i'be been doing it for a few weeks now

i think it's pretty cool

almost haiku-esque

this is not a record
it is a story

Ellipses, gorgeous

started doing this thing recently -- not sure what (if anything) the advantages are, and it doesn't necessarily look cool -- in fact I think it might not even be noticeable at first glance that there is anything different about the post, unless you have a really high concentration of dashes -- but man, is it easy to type a bunch of shit like this

wall street ticker style imo

oh dang I just found the key combination for em dash — not sure whether I like this better or not — probably try 'em both out for a few days and see which I like best——

im too handsome and cool to change

kind of feel like i've been overusing italics for emphasis

gonna start using bold underlines instead

as of

RIGHT NOW

congratulations

thanks!

Trying to break the all-lower-case-no-full-stops habit but it doesn't feel right for off-the-cuff posts. Also struggling with overuse of commas but that's less a posting style thing and more a vocational/grammatical crisis.
