Say something nice about another ILXor

gabbneb was the first ilxor i liked but then he said 'miffed @ the lack of coruscating mirth for my astounding intellectual joke' and i found it more difficult to respect him

This at least I remember. Not my preferred means of making that thread, but it'll do.

you prefer every one else's backhanded compliments about you?

I prefer to have made it via a more coruscating (I had to look that up) demonstration of predictive genius, whether or not ostentatiously in character.

Hey Iago I think you're a real nice poster too! Actually think all the music threads I follow are full of nice people.

Thanks, niels.

i know he probably doesn't need anymore board love, and it's not like i actually know him, but big ups to surmounter for two reasons:
(1): he seems like one of the only other serious mariah carey fans around here besides me, and it's important that mariah die-hards stick together!; and
(2): he's adorable! (i mean that in a platonic way)

k. i'm new. i'll quit talking about how much i like all you big galutes before this gets any weirder!

It's OK. I'll send you glossy 5X7 photos and my Carey playlist.

if only i could start threads that would elicit long and thoughtful posts from the likes of j., merdeyeux, schlump, and difficult listening hour--all scary smart posters i've learned a lot from and i wish posted a lot more.

x-post. meant his posting style is adorable, lol.

aw thx ryan, same. i'm v much looking forward to reading yr book even though it could be quite some time. i have the greatest respect for anybody who has any idea wtf peirce is on about.

much as someone said about Henry James Sr.'s "The Secret of Swedenborg": "he kept it."

i was talking to my gardner the other day (they used to lurk), and he kind of agreed with me on the passantino issue.
we gotta bring dom back.

how did you discover your gardener used to lurk on ilx?

His gardener is Xgau

ooh, what does xgau think about me? (B-? C+?)

nakh, deems, pandemic, number none. matt, windsor davies, and prob many i'm forgetting, from football are all great.

and p much all ilx menswear crew are great.

not picking any faves but <3 you all

xp-s. i don't know, my gardner and i talk ? we became pretty good friends, after about 10 years.

huh, seems like a crazy coincidence. ilx feels pretty niche

ilxor 'art' posts infrequently but reps tx well

whenever i see that there is a new long difficult listening hour post it feels like christmas

man, i don't even have a gardner. i have to go.

sorry.

do u at least have a gardn?

treeship is a good poster, i'm a fan

In the final analysis I am pro-Treeship

While we butt heads occasionally, Mordy is a good guy, esp when I talk to him outside of ILX.

mordy is one of my favorite posters and possibly the most otm in the election thread

Polymathic and generous of spirit

I think I felt the need to say that because I needlessly zinged him over the morbs beef

morbius is not a toxic presence on ilx at all.

psych!

katherine seems pretty grebt

katharine too obvs

good thread

I've thought of Mordy as one of ilx's strongest posters for a long time tbh

always enjoy goole's deadpan incredulity at right wing nutsos even though I never click the link.

no he is just really nice and straightforward

Mookie <3<3<3

Mordy love is as overplayed now as mordy hate was way back

Goes to show that ilxors as a rule like you when u agree with them

U sold out mordy

U sold out

if only Thatcher could die again

Relentlessly otm revive

I'm into this site, lots of cool people here

Also lol map

Ha thatcher thread is def peak mordy, good callback

if only Thatcher could die again

^^^^^^^

I am a mordy optimist, and I say we will continue to discover untapped mordy reserves in the frontiers of ilx

peak mordy is 100, maybe 200 years out

Mordy wrote this on thread Conventional Mealy Mouths: The 2016 Primary Voting Thread, Part 5 on board I Love Everything on 25-May-2016

that argument only makes sense if your self-conceptialization is entirely as a lone independent actor - in which case one solitary vote does not participate in any meaningful way in the political process. however there is such thing as a society and we are not just independent actors but part of large collectives of self-interest, identity and affiliation and the only reason why NY is a stable blue state is because there are a whole bunch of "independent actors" who go and vote and make it that. you have to be dripping w/ self-aggrandizement to not understand that your participation in the vote matters not bc you alone get to make the decision but bc /you/ collectively do. i wonder if other countries have this "your vote doesn't matter" argument or if it can only exist in the context of america's radical cult of individualism.

:-O
