Well, thanks.

I am sure there are historical reasons for no edit button, I'm just unaware of them.

Not being able to scrub one's own history is an inducement to more civil posting (I hope).

Makes sense. I suppose the occasional poorly worded post is a small price to pay.

immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Monday, 25 April 2022 20:19 (two years ago) link

edit buttons allow the OP to change what they originally said and make the respondent look like they overreacted unless they clearly show an edit was made and/or allow you to see what the original post said.

but even then lots of people read fast and don't notice a post that said "Edit" next to it, so people can see you overreact to your post and edit theirs to make you look unhinged and force you to explain "uhh that's not what it said originally, see where it says 'edit'?"

LL otm - its been a good constant throughout what feels like neverending upheaval & change elsewhere

will musk's purchase of twitter lead to former ilxors returning to the mothership en masse?

who's to say?

Piggy Lepton (La Lechera), Monday, 25 April 2022 21:36 (two years ago) link

If it means Hoos being back for good silver lining

Deez NFTs (Neanderthal), Monday, 25 April 2022 21:50 (two years ago) link

LL otm I appreciate this place a great deal despite not posting a lot and getting all messy sometimes

brimstead, Monday, 25 April 2022 22:02 (two years ago) link

it would be nice to have a hoos back here

we need outrage! we need dicks!! (the table is the table), Tuesday, 26 April 2022 01:41 (two years ago) link

don't know who hoos is, but I like you being here table

Dan S, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 01:48 (two years ago) link

hoos? it was said of James Bond that he was the one all women want to be with and all men want to be. ofc, no one would think to compare hoos to James Bond. no real resemblance. but he was a standout contributor to ilx and remains much loved in memory. you may search his posts under: BIG HOOS aka the steendriver

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Tuesday, 26 April 2022 01:57 (two years ago) link

hoos, when we finally meet, I'll hit on you for the sake of Christendom and ILX.

Whoever hoos is they may have been a standout in the past, but fuck that

Dan S, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:08 (two years ago) link

brimstead, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:13 (two years ago) link

Songs where it's fun to say HOOS in place of the actual lyrics

HOOS are you

this is a part of ilx lore I don't know

Dan S, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:20 (two years ago) link

to this day, i believe the Who song "Who Are You?" is "Hoos are you? Hoo Hoo - Hoo, Hoo!" is about big hoos aka the steendriver

Karl Malone, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:21 (two years ago) link

Hoos Johnny

Dan S, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:33 (two years ago) link

Karl Malone, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:33 (two years ago) link

This is a thread that is literally about liking posters

There are a zillion threads that are about other topics

Fifty Centaur (Ye Mad Puffin), Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:34 (two years ago) link

sorry

Dan S, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:37 (two years ago) link

Seems to me this is a perfectly good place to say "I miss big hoos aka the steendriver"

And a weird place to disparage the sentiment "I miss big hoos aka the steendriver"

Fifty Centaur (Ye Mad Puffin), Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:38 (two years ago) link

I see that you all miss them, so I'm sorry

Dan S, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 02:42 (two years ago) link

you’d cry for hoos too if it happened to you

estela, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 03:25 (two years ago) link

whatever that means

I never heard it before, but I thought about it for three seconds and figured it out.

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Tuesday, 26 April 2022 03:29 (two years ago) link

you got "puff tuff" after three seconds, good for you

Dan S, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 03:37 (two years ago) link

pugnacious! < it's a hint

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Tuesday, 26 April 2022 03:55 (two years ago) link

Hoos boy

immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Tuesday, 26 April 2022 03:59 (two years ago) link

I like a lot of posters on this board, including you Aimless, I'm always interested to read what you have to say. Just thought brimstead's comment was demeaning

Dan S, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 04:07 (two years ago) link

lol you just seemed like you were being a jerk to hoos or were mad that we were talking about him but I’m sorry Dan s

brimstead, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 04:22 (two years ago) link

Even though I've scaled back on my posting in recent weeks, it makes me happy to see Neanderthal back around again.

And credit to Bee OK to always having a lot of enthusiasm, even when I don't share the target of said enthusiasm.

I hope he will post on this board again

Dan S, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 04:27 (two years ago) link
