Say something nice about another ILXor

Still, you had a very good run.

Sorry Ned, you’re so ubiquitous to ILX that I didn’t even think to mention you. You’re like the elder statesmen of this place, feels wrong to place you in the realm of mere posters like the rest of us

Hahah too kind. As long as DJP's posting here too it's not like I'm alone from the actual first day.

Did you two debut on the same day? I remember I used to think of you guys as The Two Imaginary Boys.

one of the more minor things i appreciate about the great-hearted and frequently otm poster calzino is his use of simple quotation marks where most of us apply bb code.

uh, yeah, 100%. it means the exact same thing and sooooo much easier 🤦‍♂️

Just saw HP's post. I think I first posted in 2006. I can't really think about how long ago that was because it fucks with my brain. Anyway, that was a sweet post. :)

Wait - it's 20 years ago in 3 years. Fuck.

the table is the table is a good table. i know we've bumped heads a few times in various threads, but i appreciate table's persistence in sticking with their point and often bringing up points i might not have considered, even if i don't always agree with them. anyway, just appreciating someone that doesn't just take drive-by swipes at other posters and seems genuinely interesting in a conversation.

I have been appreciating the calm, reflective posts of raymond cummings on heavy topics for some months now

i almost said "quietly" too, and i'm not sure why! but one of my first thoughts was "damn, i loved that defector piece Raymond quietly dropped a couple days ago"

Ray is awesome.

Excellent poster on both ILE and ILM!

Damn, thank you guys!!!! I didn’t have any idea about these posts until right now

(I should open this thread now and again, shouldn’t I? And I have some kudos to hand out to others as well.)

Also - thank you, H.P.

<3

LOVE RAY

Truth indeed!

darraghmac is one of the funniest motherfuckers on here.

Co-sign jimbeux. It’s hard to get away with comedic aloof detachment around these parts, but somehow darrghmac walks that tightrope like a pro

He always has been!

another post just to appreciate rob. i can see that gyac finally called him out just a month ago upthread. so it's 15 years too late but i'm trying to make up for it. i love rob's love of dancehall and soca. and he's really funny.

rob is the best

aw y’all are so kind! thank you so much, I’m really touched <3

I love u rob

tbf all the canadians are grebt iirc

granted that all canadian ilxors are grebt, but not those idiot canadian truckers who closed the USA-Canada border crossings about a year or so ago.

I love you too Alfred

xp tbf, they did all say "Sorry."

you know who’s pretty great? roz

Otm

x3

yes

love

cosign <3 roz

One of the reasons that I like VegemiteGrrl so much is that she might be the only person I know who can write at length about Pearl Jam and make me enjoy reading about it. It's like some sort of miracle! But her fandom is so infectious and she really gets to the heart of why she likes something and as a result she almost makes me want to listen to Pearl Jam. That's the kind of writer I admire.

Definitely. She does the same for me and GnR (and a lot of other bands of that era for whom I have no patience).

All it takes is just a little patience, jimbeaux.

jvc, thanks for yr kind words above. also cosign to all of the recent love

(that is, for VG, Raymond, Ned, Alfred, and others)

Roz and VG are indeed excellent and very knowledgeable in their pursuits.

scott OTM about PJ and VegGrrl.

aw I just saw this, thank you everyone for the kind words! been having a bit of a tough year so this is really nice to see.

big love to all of you (and most everyone on ilx really), you’re all fab. <3

and I agree, VG rules - I always know I’m going to love a TV series or film if she loves it too

aw thx Scott, and everyone … so nice of you to say!

Vegemite, I was looking for a new show to watch and your high enthusiasm for Justified in its thread got me to give it a try and it has been one of my favourite things for the past 3 months, so thanks for that. Keep up the unbridled enthusiasm pls

VG rules - I always know I’m going to love a TV series or film if she loves it too

I just wanted to cosign on the positivity.

There’s a lot to say good about so many of you! But for now:

Neanderthal is constantly OTM and funny, and his interpolations of rap lyrics to real life foolishness makes me chuckle out loud 👍🏽

Co-sign. Neanderthal is 100% one of my favorite posters.

Love Neando. To name one thing, he has been a real inspiration for my recent karaoke explorations, although maybe I shouldn’t blame him for that.

Yeah, Neando is an A+++ poster.

+1 on Neanderthal, he's for real

Neando is one of the most thoughtful and consistent posters on here. He's also funny af. One of the good ones.

big fuzzy hearts to Neando, the realest of the real, a kind & hilarious poster, A+++++
