2 post back, I have 10 pictures going right to left that haven't loaded. It's like watching a train go by. (dancing spideys, if properties is to be believed)

More to the point, of all these things listed above, 50% I have never seen and only 2% are current, in my humble estimation...

― mark grout (mark grout), Monday, 10 May 2004 08:01 (twenty years ago) link

Many of these were already vintage ILX by the time this thread was started.

― Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Monday, 10 May 2004 14:18 (twenty years ago) link

So, they like old Arthur Askey catchphrases then? i.e. You had to be there...

― mark grout (mark grout), Monday, 10 May 2004 14:20 (twenty years ago) link

don't try it.

ten months pass...

The Lex on the Arcade Fire in Stylus today:

I'm still not wholly over Win Butler's singing -— indie busker alert, get one ability to hit a note -- but I'm somewhat stunned to find that I definitely see why others think them so special.

55. Honor the fire!

This predates silly ILX by decades.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 28 March 2005 19:37 (nineteen years ago) link

Seriously, what I love about that The Lex quote, and this quote from Alex in NYC just a few minutes ago ...

Well, for a start, I guess the entirety of ILM is devoted to showcasing one eclecticism, but I was more interested in the random pairings than in anybody's conscious wide taste.

...is that the meme seems to have moved out of the "Look at me, I'm using the meme everyone finds so funny! Aren't I funny, too!" phase and into just normal conversation. That's awesome.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 19:42 (nineteen years ago) link

I hadn't even noticed that! I'd just read it originally as "...one's eclecticism".

― the fucker that will burn you (sundar), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 20:09 (nineteen years ago) link

94: b-b-but

― Alex in TCBY (ex machina), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 20:17 (nineteen years ago) link

"You're forgetting something: 9/11"

― Alex in TCBY (ex machina), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 20:17 (nineteen years ago) link

wait, maybe it was a typo :(

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 20:26 (nineteen years ago) link

haha I didn't realise I'd been quoted on this! I think that might have even been the first time I used that formulation. It's really easy to slip into an everyday context - it's actually an easier, more casual structure, and it's not exactly hard to understand if you haven't encountered the meme before.

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 21:58 (nineteen years ago) link

three weeks pass...

Hahaha, I STARTED this thread, two years ago!
