I'd like to C on this thread's Ts.

Yeeeeeeeees. Nothing yet posted on this thread has piqued my interest. Not saying you all post ill-concieved nonesense or anything though I subliminally advise you to draw that conclusion....

The point that's being missed here isn't so much dog latin starting a thread with the same subject as one that has been done before, but by the fact that he started a thread of impressions without really offering one up of his own. It's a problem because by the first post violating the rules of its own thread, the rest of the posts have no "rules" to follow. In other words, without a foundation to build upon, it's likely that this thread will just turn into another free-form chatter list that won't make sense to anyone who reads it past, say, next Thursday.

It's the whole bait-and-switch idea at work here. Stating a topic and not following through is not very ethical, IMHO. Do we follow someone who maybe has a good idea at heart, but goes about laying the groundwork under fradulent principles? If you tell everyone to do something, and they want to do it under faith, when you fail them, will you have anyone else to blame but themselves? I don't want to fault dog latin here because I know that he (she?) was just trying to come up with something fun for all of us to do on a Thursday afternoon in July, but this has definitely become something that I'll think twice about next time I see his (her?) name at the top of a thread like this.

And Ned imitating himself by not imitating himself is actually quite, quite sublime. By doing this, he's following through with the intention of the thread, but not playing by its rules since, as I stated above, there were no rules to begin with. The only thing that I would have suggested is a "use the search feature!" statement in the context of his post, if not at the very least, a few links to some of the older threads with this topic.

(Though I should add that if there are any funny "Ilxor Impressions" threads, they won't actually relate to this one since this one isn't really an "Ilxor Impression" thread. Much like alisa's impression of Ned not doing an impression of himself as himself? Or is it just an impression of one of the previous threads? Has this all been some sort of Neil Hamburgerian joke on us all?) The meta-lization of this place has become quite staggering, IMHO.

It's all good except I would never say "IMHO." Also I would have pointed out how that Amateurist-in-French post is doing exactly the thing I was saying Americans would do about Teresa Heinz Kerry and then we were all like, "Well, you know, the stupid ones."

Umm ... Look at this embarrassing teen-goth photo of me where I think I look retarded even though I always look sorta beautiful.

AaronHz (AaronHz), Thursday, 29 July 2004 17:07 (twenty-one years ago)

Has anybody considered how the veritable post-Surrealism of the 'human-mind' Turing engine relates to the a priori premise of the thread (which is that our personas vis-a-vis the ILE digital environment / space are reducible to dictive, grammatical and spelling based constructions) and the broader implications this might have on the replacability of the IRL personas with image-less avatar incorporations? We shouldn't overlook these things, lest we fall into the trap of the 'meat-less' InterWeb culture so sagely predicted by such Dadaist art as the iconic R. Mutt toilet, in which the artist is little more than a Benjaminian prsence on the periphery of its creation.

sorry dudes, i don't really get this whole "imitating each other" thing. it just sounds like a bunch of college kids congratsulating each other for being so clever and then arguing about whether to buy volvos or volkwasagens to drive to the office in. gimme a real conversation about puking and sticking my dick in things, ya know?

JTS, Monday, 5 May 2008 23:10 (seventeen years ago)

I am not sure that I care for the word "G'day". There was a time when ILX was free of such impertinences, and one would be certain to greet all but the most intimate of acquaintances with a carefully enunciated "Good day to you my dear Sir". Perhaps such things are considered old-fashioned today, as the lower orders bring their own gutter idiom to this once sacrosanct hall of learning. A pity.

Michael Philip Philip Philip philip Annoyman, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 11:40 (seventeen years ago)

Well, Michael Philip Philip Philip philip , no matter how witty and/or right your remark was, it comes across supercilious. I agree that many of Dom Passantino's internet gang are xenophic lads but I don't expect every member to be as such. It's dangerous to make generalisations. By the way calling names is never going to lead to a healthy discussion. I am as much guilty of it as the next person. And 77 doesn't necessarily make one a better man/woman. Anyway, don't mean it the wrong way. Anyway I am sure you can join back up in a week or two. But use a non-hotmail or yahoo account. I am sure they'll let you back in.

PS - are you and Gooblar still doing Brooce at the ILX gig?

Dr.C, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 13:49 (seventeen years ago)

Marcello already linked to it.

James Redd and the Blecchs, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 14:09 (seventeen years ago)

I think it was something that Steady Mike had posted on an old audiophile thread? which you couldn't possibly have read, but seemed to replicate exactly, in your quite magnificent and unforgettable parody of his exquisite style. You wrote about some imaginary recording of mine which he was going to produce with certain FX - 'sounds good to these ears'.

I also remember the uncanny time you identified almost the exact locale of the school outside which Stevie T and I were standing in an iconic Foxgloves photo. You were on fire in those days. Perhaps you still are!

Yes, I do hope to play with Gooblar; hope you'll enjoy!

the pinefox, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 15:01 (seventeen years ago)

You were on fire in those days. Perhaps you still are!

My heart's not in it these days, for all the reasons you summarised on the 'eras' thread. I miss FAPs too.

Dr.C, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 15:50 (seventeen years ago)

Don't really do FAPs any more, do we?

Dingbod Kesterson, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 15:51 (seventeen years ago)

We should. I just fear that if I suggested one no-one would come.

Dr.C, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 15:57 (seventeen years ago)

Suggest it. They will come.

Tom D., Wednesday, 7 May 2008 15:58 (seventeen years ago)

Having never been to any of the older FAPs, I could fancy a trip down to see you all TBH (Saw Tom too briefly at the gig last year)

Pashmina, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 15:59 (seventeen years ago)

Pash - there's this years gig next month.

But an oldskool pub FAP would be good before then maybe.

Dr.C, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 16:04 (seventeen years ago)

I'd even go to one in south London.

Ed, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 16:05 (seventeen years ago)

Steady on there - are you sure?

We should aim for late this month maybe. I'm thinking glass'ouse stores for real old skool vibes. How to get the word out to the people who don't post here any more?
