This is the thread where discuss potential thread ideas

Eating ice cream alone on the street - woah there.

Simultaneously, the "2004" would discourage serious responses. You don't want that either.

SO, go with "Slippery Can Mystery" that's my advice.

Which track on my new CD should I listen to first?

or

I'm hungry, what's in my fridge?

I haven't started a thread on this because it will be over tomorrow but I have almost started this thread 3 times today:

Why I Can't Look At IMDB Today...That Fucking Picture of Denis Leary...Jesus Christ!

HAHAHAHAHA YES ME TOO.

* start a poll of what of my shitty favorite movies people think is the most acceptable, except add a total ringer to see if it wins and then go WELL FUCK YOU GUYS when the results come in

* a thread for recounting yr progress in whatever video game yr playing except not actually mentioning the game or characters or whatever, just descriptions of what is going e.g. "there is now a tailor shop open for business in the right nostril of the big old tree in the future"

* a poll for which summer blockbuster trilogy capper of the 21st century is the best, or at least the most tolerable (have to wait for bourne ultimatum to come out)

This morning I thought about starting a "Things to do when you're lying in bed in the middle of the night, unable to sleep". But I figured it would quickly devolve into discussion of masturbation so didn't bother.

Great idea. It would be kind of like reading the Lost thread without ever having watched Lost.

Why I Can't Look At IMDB Today...That Fucking Picture of Denis Leary...Jesus Christ!

I didn't look, but I assume it's that "Rescue Me" ad I have to see on the PATH train all the time. YEEEAAARGH!!

"Is ILX your home page?"

god that'd be a boring thread

"What percentage of threads that you read do you post to?"

I can't get the phrasing right so haven't bothered, but i do genuinely want to know. Do some people post to half the threads they read? All? 1 out of 20 like me?

I thght about starting a thread about words/objects that EVERYONE seems to know. I can't really describe what I mean as well as hmm Nabisco (or anyone else here). I thought about this cause microwave seems such a word but in Japanese you'd renshidenshi and they don't know... Ah fuck it, it's a worthless thread, even talking about it here...

That video game progress thread is a great idea, although maybe more appropriate for poor neglected ILG.

I'm at the part where I have to level up for fucking forever before I'm anywhere near able to handle the monsters in the next place I need to go.

that would be my worry actually that it would just fill up with people talking about how they're grinding and/or can't figure something out. I want to read the utter nonsense, not "the blah blah mission SUCKS"

I just had the idea to start a thread called "Jack Kerouac, Blogger," but I don't know what I would say inside.

I would read that thread.

I am also toying with a thread called 'Whitehouse - A Day in the Life of a Confrontational Noise Band'. I've been wondering whether I should start that thread for over two years now.

erm, Philip Best. Who was Pete Best? A football player?

I was just about to post a thread titled "Let it all out" where we are free to vent, let it all out, and post things like "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" and "AAAAARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH godDAMMIT". Then I had second thoughts. WWJD

I was thinking of making a poll "TS: Sweeping vs. Vacuuming"? It would be a place where people could express their feelings about whether it's better to clean your floor by sweeping it or vacuuming it. I wasn't sure whether the subject's inherent interest would be enough, or if the thread needed some kind of "hook" to make it topical & sexy.

ZS, start here

FUCK YOU!!

should be pretty easy to find other threads like it

Anagrams of Brian Eno

The thread of shit palindromes

I'm Getting Old and Desperate Support Group Thread

I was going to start a thread called "Things We Should Have Said," where you had to post (a) what you didn't say, (b) why you didn't say it, and (c) why you should have said it anyway.

But like 90% of threads I start never have respondents other than me, so.

I don't think we're quite in a position for my Rolling Economic Recovery Thread yet.

Best Alternate Beatle Album Poll, where the selections and sequencing are still Revolver and Abbey Road etc., but the songs are all the demo/bootlegged/Anthology mixes.

I just didn't know how to go about explaining what I was talking about, and really didn't have that much enthusiasm to make the effort anyway.

^^ this exists, can't remember name.

Thinking of starting a thread where ilx comes together w/ its crazy sporting knowledge (and other) to try and beat the bookies and make mad deniro throughout the year. Good idea or non?

as a great betting friend once told me, only lay a bet when the odds are longer than they should be, regardless of what you think the result will be

dude makes coin, all you need to know really

ok so if we had a thread where folks were looking for those odds and americans can tell us if it is smart to put money on [american sporting team] or not and us the other way around w/ like cricket and football etc.?
2. ?????
3. profit

your slippery slope dude ;)

i would put a bet on england to win this test match btw

hey it was just a suggestion

so was that

i already lost my weekly pound on charlton ;_;

There is a place for all of this and it's called Cape of Good Hope.

my bets yesterday:

arsenal 2-1, eduardo to score first: £4 at 22/1
nasri to score first: £2 at 8/1
gallas to score first: £1 at 18/1
half time arsenal, full time draw: £1 at 10/1
arsenal 3-1 ft: £2 at 12/1

best tenner i ever squandered.

'who is more completely fucked, UK or US or continental europe?'

would vote

a poll to bring back deleted threads and every Christmas the mods would resurrect the winner for a whole day

I like that!

Or have a banned user allow back that way.

a bill magill thread called 'viable candidates for companionship in atlanta'

kroy bierman is married to kim stupidface jeeezus that is terrible
lol @ how much camera time she gobbles up promoting her own dumb show

^sad thing is that the Falcons need Bierman to play well this year so badly. The dude is utterly critical. Not sure what he married a reality show star for. It's not like Atlanta has a shortage of viable candidates for companionship.

is this something we would just imagebomb with pictures of adoptable pets from local shelters?

if they were viable and had expressed a desire for inter-species companionship, why not?

there's already a thread for dogs who look like David crosby

but not all of those dogs are viable candidates for companionship in Atlanta, b.

lol and lol xp
