goole should get a grant to write a Rick Perlstein-style history of the alt-right/batshit online conservatism

I should pre-empt him with a Reagan bio.

I love Neanderthal for going on the friends and family no speak bcz trump thread and talking about wanting to glass a random drunk redneck, and all the other admissions that make me want to go "+1, x2, bro"

I love JJJ for taking my job as mod hardman and doing it actually well, and sharing his family and guitar knowledge with us like we matter one bit
― El Tomboto, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 00:03 (seven years ago) link
I love Old Vague, Noodle Casino and Doctor Lunch the best, though. Top four posters

And anybody (qualmsley dude) who mentions me on this thread is secretly REALLY THANK YOU but also come on, shut up, naaahh.

You're too kind! But let's not forget Doctor Frogbius, fact checkin calzino, and Veg Raggrrl.

Are Frankensteinian experiments escaping from the create-a-super-ilxor thread and surpassing the people they're based on?
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 16:09 (seven years ago) link
you are correct, Robert, Lord Gilmourson

certainly it would be "vag reggrrl", no?

no accounting for taste i suppose

I guess I'm being fused with Alfred because I found his opinions and tastes so mysterious. All will be revealed.
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 17:29 (seven years ago) link
i like chatting it up w/ mh on the topic of jeans and buying a house

It might just be a result of the threads I frequent, not getting to see the bigger picture of Alfred.
I found Nakhchivan quite difficult to get an overall sense of him too.
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 18:55 (seven years ago) link
Nakhchivan is a principle
― his eye is on despair-o (Jon not Jon), Tuesday, 21 February 2017 19:08 (seven years ago) link
nakhchivan - knows about wine; likes those weird places in eastern europe that are unrecognized by the international community; likes association football and wordplay; occasionally flips his shit and says some nasty shit to a poster he doesn't like

Gaz Coombes and Hitler loom large in his legend.

ha id forgotten about the gaz coombes thing

plays piano i think? at least when we have talked about liszt he has sounded like he was coming from a person who plays place

The best posters are never understood in their own time.
― Treeship, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 19:28 (seven years ago) link
i clearly understand your point there.

I hope I can convey to marcos whether it's ok to buy used jeans someone smoked in

nakh's aesthetic is reasonably well-served with facebook-style context-free image posts but I miss the ilx version
― mh đ, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 19:35 (seven years ago) link
I miss Search. Search was really good at telling you (when you wanted them -- gender neutral -- to) if someone was posting about you in another thread.

Nachkhivian was a blowhard nothing and none of his jokes made sense

andy and flopson that is very humbling and kind, thank you. i'm just a guy whose office job is not demanding enough, i swear!

being a chronicler of extremity is kind of a crowded field atp... i fell into the rabbit hole early, but i have to admit the fate of a number of harassees that put their heads above water really put me off trying to take it further
― goole, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 20:36 (seven years ago) link
i always liked nakh's posts as well, i thought he was long gone?
― goole, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 20:37 (seven years ago) link
Nakh's moved onto his own universe. He wasted way too much time with us mortals already.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Tuesday, 21 February 2017 20:52 (seven years ago) link
Pfft whatever

it's ok to buy used jeans someone smoked in
