Would 'chav' be the word you'd be looking for here?
Kontakte added me on myspace
I was wondering about this earlier: don't most bands do that to more or less anyone? It must mean that the actual bands's bulletin board is useless, right? I am in the annoying state where I'd like to add bands, so I can get their bulletins, but I occasionally send out some of my own, which I'd rather went to actual people instead of bands.

xpost innocent smoothies rule, i wish i could afford them. i went to a market research thingy at their offices and said i'd buy their stuff all the time if i could but i'm not gonna buy it when i can make it myself for cheaper, and they claimed it was not possible to make their drinks any cheaper than buying them. how??

orange-faced provincial-club woman is very different from chav
Which reminds me, I got attacked by rogue swiss hairdressers last week and 3 inches of dreadlock is now pinned to the back bar of a bar in Zermatt.
So do mackerels and herring but I don't go mushing them up in fruit drinks.

Well, that's better, but not by much. It's still "Ew the wrong people like this", which is a rubbish reason to dislike something. Er, not that it took, by the sounds of things. Any chance I could make a 'Dissenting opinion' CD full of poptimismic bangers? :)
(The track itself is 'Everytime we Touch' by Cascada, it's a pleasant little bit of eurobosh that heads Scooterwards in the chorus. Her voice is lacking a little something, and it gets a bit slow back in the verses, but fortunately there's a Happy Hardcore version that fixes both of these problems.)

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Monday, 22 January 2007 14:24 (nineteen years ago)
the track itself is a plate of steaming shite, both fast and slow versions. just appalling. thankfully it hasn't got any memorable melody or hook, so i have already forgotten how it goes and i will never have to hear it again. look, you think beyonce's voice is good to hear. i think she sounds like a giant mosquito next to my ear and i want her to shut the fuck up. we are never gonna agree on this stuff.
kate: about an hour before you're ready to start cooking everything else, cut the aubergine up however you want it. get a colander and put layers of sliced aubergine in it, having salted it first. put a plate under the colander, a side-plate on top of the aubergine and a bowl of water on top of the side-plate. leave it while you have a shower/watch doctor who/go shopping for the rest of your veg (about an hour, less if you've sliced it thinly). when you're ready to use it, check out the puddle of greyish-purplish liquid that's collected on the bottom plate. taste it - ugh, bitter! rinse the salt off each piece and you're ready to go.

Well, calling it 'their music' isn't going to un-muddy the waters. And also tastes change - isn't a lot of FWOABW 'chav music' these days indie?

Ah you're crazy, it has a great melody! I'm humming it right now.

YSI = You Send It = quasi-legal to illegal file sharing. It was banned on old ILX. I generally think it's a good idea that if you don't own the copyright on it, don't post it on ILX.

i don't get it. they listen to it + i don't know anyone else who listens to it (well, ha, i thought i didn't) = it is their music. like bob the builder is children's music, and my chemical romance is top-shop-goths' music.
FWOABW
?
and this is like that song with the strings we've had several conversations about, the one that someone else who's occasionally on ilx thinks has some crazy-ass wicked hooky strings. see, i have even forgotten - again - which song that even is. is it toxic? is it by britney or christina, maybe? is it a different song? they played it at do dirt and you told me what it was and i have forgotten it again. i have heard it several times, paid proper attention to it to try and figure out what the hell you were both talking about, and i cannot remember a thing about it. it is completely unmemorable. i could hear it RIGHT NOW and in ten minutes be unable to hum even a couple of bars of the chorus.

we've all got them, CJ.
that reminds me of the very last phone call I had to make when I worked for NHS Supplies, which was to ask the question "What's the difference between an anoscope and a proctoscope?" Apparently there is no difference.

Ugh, ugh, why can't I just stop clicking on ILM? I make the mistake of clicking on a thread because the title looks vaguely interesting or even just vague, and I find myself exposed to the most vile... I don't know. It goes beyond "there's five seconds of my life I won't get back" but into the territory of "I'm going to be thinking how WRONG you are for the rest of the day."
And I'd just rather not be thinking about that in midst of monthend.

I suppose this is the same reaction that anyone has, who hates an idea or words so much they want to stamp them from this earth. It's that old question of "I do not want to read this" vs. "this should NOT EXIST. At all. Ever." It depends on what the idea is.
I suppose I'm not saying that this stuff shouldn't exist, I just DO NOT want to read it, and I'm angry at being exposed to it, even by accident. If I know that exposure to a person will make me spit black bile then I want to avoid them.
