I Love Hoops can create off the dribble and dunk on I Love Baseball day in and day out. The only competition for it in my affections would be I Love Books.

I ask you to take a look deep within yourself before answering and select the board that has a built-in pickle bar.

i started I Love Books 20 years ago! last december was 20 years. so i voted for that. even though i don't go there much anymore because i am such a slow reader. but a very very fast streamer.

i started the vinyl one too but i don't remember when. and i don't go there much either. because i am drowning in vinyl probably.

hmmm...I Love Streaming has a good ring to it...

i still have ANDSFBaPB at the top of my ILX but i never go there because there is never anyone there. maybe i should go do some noise damage over there by myself. i can be very damaging when i put my mind to it.

Do you know what "drag it through the garden" means in a pickle bar context? Not urgent, but if you happen. to find yourself in the Wrigley/Guaranteed Rate Field environs, you should know this!

I Love NFL’s hey day was in the era of Flying Dawkins and Crying Romo meme pictures, which has been a good while.

I used to lurk a lot, and used to love the listening/movie threads on the Noise Board. That YSI thread would break my browser, but I learned so much from it. Mr Magic from Native Hipsters come to mind, for eg

You gotta respect the classics and I'm going to feel a little sad if ILM doesn't take this poll. Vote cast in that direction

Would love to say ILComics, but frankly we are barely a rolling thread at this point.

I will opt for ILBooks as books are the next best thing to comics.

if we're talking nostalgia or peak then noize or footy

music. what a deep information resource. i couldn't imagine making do without it, especially because the rest of the internet sucks so bad now.

Hoops. Except for that one poster.

I'm always SNA, all boards are good. I don't read sports threads tho, unless it's about hockey or skiing or finger skating

I Love Potatoes (flamboyant goon tie included), Thursday, 18 April 2024 15:09 (nine months ago) link

SNA is my default view and that works well

There's usually lots of fun/informative stuff on ILE but sometimes it's too much for me

books and film borads are consistently good

I don't follow basketball but I admire I Love Hoops anyway ... recently I Love Baseball is excellent, ty gyac ... American football threads on ILX are rather low-key, but that's preferable to the clickbait and hype everywhere else ... I can't be bothered with strange foreign sports like golf

even in its somewhat diminished current incarnation, ILM is a pinnacle of Western civilization, 10/10 for the body of work

ilh has the best vibes

brimstead, Thursday, 18 April 2024 16:01 (nine months ago) link

and hoops discussion/info that is better than than of/from a lot of people who are paid to know about hoops

brimstead, Thursday, 18 April 2024 16:03 (nine months ago) link

"unless it's about hockey or skiing or finger skating"

i need to pay more attention to the Olympics!

I love film a terminal case, beyond saving — it’s not even the second most active film discussion board ffs

Can’t be anything but ILB (not that one user gyac, you will never get me interested in baseball) but shout out to ILAFL in its classic era by which of course I mean the original incarnation of four or five randos trading opaque banter and not the later mutation to … ok kind of the same thing

Prime-era Pickle Bar was one of my favorite places on the Internet even tho I mostly lurked. I never look at it anymore so can’t come out on its current state. I guess I will be boring and say ILE, because … it’s got everything.

I Love Hoops is the best even though my team is the worst.

ILBB pretty fun as well.

ILX (i.e. I Love Politics) now the worst.

btw, the ans to this is ILM by miles. Its gone from like philosophical home of poptimism to classic rock polls and fake experimental music threads. Quite a journey.

Also if I kept to ILM I wouldn't have been banned four times and would probably be on speaking terms with several posters. But that's life.
