lazy zing catalog

e.g.

kenan - repost one of his creepy posts about sex and/or drugs (probably sex)

Surely the effort is in narrowing it down to one?

jaymc - spreadsheet reference

kate - lol u a crazy bitch
perpetua - omg fatty
$BRITISH - your understanding of how the public and private spheres should interact is craaaaazy! also, your taste in music blows! get some braces!

Louis Jagger: Poppage

now you've got it!

n/a - grumpy bastard

anyone - aspie

Esteban: gimmick got tired ages ago

Marcello: chippy

this is the kind of board where calling someone a goth/emo isn't a zing :/

Trayce: this is the kind of board where calling someone a goth/emo isn't a zing :/

the anti-perpetua stuff on noize lols thread seems very jocksy

We're laughing with him, not at him.

I hear Perpetua and Passantino are actually pretty good friends in real life

Martin Prince: Clang, clang, clang, went the trolley / Ring, ring, ring, went the bell / Zing, Zing, Zing, went my heartstrings...

Mr. Burns: Thank you! Give the bully an extra point.

Belgians: haha, Belgium!

I pwned Theresa May for being basically 'I'm all right, Jill' re. women in the workplace when we were both on this panel discussion once. Good times.

none of these could be described as the pinnacle of the 'lol britpop' crew's zing culture

(amirite?)

Indeed you are, big man.

hey this doctor morbius guy is old??? BOXCAR

Basically the assumption is that anyone who uses a lazy zing should feel a little bit guilty about it. I mean, the lazy zing catalog is a tool, it's there for you to use, but not to abuse. Trying branching out and getting creative with your zings.

^^^ Good call

jw: bald

haha i called jw bald the other day irl. i realized it was lazy as i was sayin it but he called me old and i choked ;_;

Sort of outdated, but Nickalicious = hippie.

Ronan - "hey, here's one of your 2001 posts where you discuss your love for Ryan Adams."

Ethan - "you are white and like hip-hop".

cutty: totally dipilitated south of the eyebrows, wears ladyjeans

i like the idea of using this thread to call out future lazy zings

gygax!: dead

For some strange reason though, bald fat Strongo zings never get old.

Unlike his hairline.

Baffling quirk of ilx that someone will get lolmadd at lex not liking a thing and respond to whatever he says with "you liked Paris Hilton" and ppl will go omg!!! & repost to zing

Baffling

it's like a "race war" where they don't even get mad.

Concerned About Standards,

yeah that was typically plebian

tho lex may seem richly zingable not many actually got the game to land a glove

not lazy zings

in scotland recently i was walking with a barrister to a cocktail bar in the pouring rain and passed three teenagers with a raging need to kick the shit out of someone. they grabbed the umbrella my (english) friend was holding and tried to take it from him. we both grabbed on to the handle and tried to yank it back. my friend says "let go of it, there's a good chap"

this essentially is kingsman

we need a companion thread for people who have been covered very thoroughly in "posts very much in character" and do not need to appear in that thread anymore

I know the perfect guy to compile such a database

what ho!

NA otm though

except there's a few posters I get such a thrill out of being themselves that I can't help myself

(calzino, mostly <3)

too bad few posters get much of a thrill out of you being yourself

we can do this for whole threads I think

rolling US politics - wacky humour about how stupid Trump is

what are you listening to 20** - self-appointed guardians of the outré and the esoteric hoping to finally post something no other ilxor has heard of

continue

"wacky" humor

worst music of the year - we fundamentally misunderstand the name of this messageboard

multiple threads about shitty 80s alt bands - lol it's 1986

Blue Saturday - noodle vague is sad and thinking about drinking/drunk/hungover

Blue Saturday - <3 tbf

what are you listening to 20** - self-appointed guardians of the outré and the esoteric hoping to finally post something no other ilxor has heard of

shrubbies - memphis in texas
north sea radio orchestra - north sea radio orchestra

you've never heard of either of these bands but their debuts are honestly up there with my favourites (clearlake's debut lido rounds it out). imagine your confusion then when I affirm that these two bands are in fact...the same band

imago on ilm - cardiacs tragic

"rolling US politics - wacky humour about how stupid Trump is"

and introduce some obnoxious loudmouth cunts to loudly repeat this theme, liberally throwing about the R bomb and laughing at their own jokes, and you have an ILX approved hit comedy podcast. Yay! We live in a time of genius!

Wow @ imago vs. what are you listening to 20**, I must read that thread.

it's a tribute to American optimism that their politics threads rarely descend into the morose, crusted-with-foot-thick-bile despair that's the standard UK thread vibe

anyway i'm gon' get drunk

I posted that post to 'best debut albums' which albeit being another mundane regurgitation of our tectonically-shifting internal lists is different of a thing to the passive-aggressive snob marathon that is 'what are you listening to' but this is lazy zing catalog so I'll let it pass

it's a tribute to American optimism that their politics threads rarely descend into the morose, crusted-with-foot-thick-bile despair that's the standard UK thread vibe

nah, there's plenty of self-serving despair and "look how much we are suffering!" doomsaying. its basically a bunch of adults smashing action figures on the ground and castigating one another for not being as mad as they are

Oh there's a lazy zing for the ages

think noodle's done you there

but otm

The real crime (indeed obv imo the only possibly crime on a message board) is the quality of the writing tbh its appalling. Appalling.

Wacky humor in US politics threads is little more than a futile attempt to reckon with the enormity of an inescapable void which is in the process of slowly consuming us all. After it's burned us to a crisp and slathered us with ketchup, of course.

As I said

lol

we can't all be Dan Brown

I dunno, glib lib angst is terrible but so many opinions are terrible

Almost all of them, tbh.

Yeah, it seems unreasonable to demand an epiphany in every soundbite

Sorry OL it was there in front of me.

It's only right and natural to swing after I've teed it up.

Not sure a big Stephen King fan is in much of a position to criticise anyone's writing

In context man in context

I asked my wife (a big Pixies fan) — she voted “Gouge Away.”

swear this was locked

anyway, it isn't. proceed

oh i bet you'd like that wouldn't you

catalog? more like scatalog

scatalog? more like scat (a log)

1207 messages? more like cataLONG

get it on, cat a long, get it on

(too lazy to even make a lazy zing)
