When a man and a woman love each other very much...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 25 July 2003 13:39 (twenty-three years ago)

Can we begin with "Ultimate Force"?

In particular I am interested in knowing how a fridge works.

What's to explain?

Fridge: Minty air is circulated through tubes, impregnating items and fooling you into thinking they are cooler than they are.

― N. (nickdastoor), Friday, 25 July 2003 13:42 (twenty-three years ago)

i. Pete tells lies very much...
ii. The only threat to ilxor is the sky falling on our heads
iii. "One day a wolf really DID appear, but when they heard him shouting the townspeople just muttered "He is trolling again" to one another, and carried on with whatever they were doing..."

(ref point i, also the students at SOAS are on holiday and Pete is meant to be doing an essay, he is desperately seeking displacement activities to avoid this and has opted for stirring ILX as he already tidied our flat)

I just had a dream that sf writer Bruce Sterling was going to explain to me why nuclear destruction was inevitable. I'm glad I woke up. Some things, I don't want explained.

Is this an "I can explain everything, honest" kind of thread?

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 25 July 2003 19:59 (twenty-three years ago)

I am typing with my nose.

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Friday, 25 July 2003 20:06 (twenty-three years ago)

God I hope that's true. Best visual ever.

― teeny (teeny), Friday, 25 July 2003 20:10 (twenty-three years ago)

That does explain a lot, but not everything.

I think this *was* a conner sighting, given that it misspelled its own name once.

fourteen years pass...

The difference between "okay" and "meh"--I need that explained.

― clemenza, Friday, 29 December 2017 00:36 (eight years ago)

"okay" = "I neither like nor dislike this thing" -- a simple, honest statement of opinion

"meh"= "you know this thing everyone's been raving about? well it doesn't impress me AT ALL, fuckers! hahHahahahaa". basically you don't have a strong opinion about something but you're still in the mood for trolling, and you're hoping your ambivalence will provoke a "whaaaa?" reaction among the stans of whatever cultural product you've chosen to denigrate

― jesus and figs and science and the foo fighters (unregistered), Friday, 29 December 2017 00:49 (eight years ago)

"Meh" is dismissive. "Okay" is more like... straddling between caring and not caring

― brimstead, Friday, 29 December 2017 00:52 (eight years ago)

Thanks. I think we're looking at okay.

― clemenza, Friday, 29 December 2017 00:58 (eight years ago)

Is it a boy or a girl

― remember the lmao (darraghmac), Friday, 29 December 2017 01:01 (eight years ago)

^^Now, if you didn't lecture me the one time a year I post something on the excelsior thread, I probably would have put that sequence up.
