And if this place has been around since 99, how come I've never seen a thread post older than seven years?

It's been around since 2000. I think these were the first two threads:
Songs About Quitting Your Job? Indie Rock: What's Going On?

jaymc, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 18:20 (seventeen years ago)

Yeah, August 2000 was the start date.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 18:20 (seventeen years ago)

Awww, I'm in the Quitting Your Job thread.. too bad we have to wait another 2.5 years to hit the 10 year mark!

Finefinemusic, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:41 (seventeen years ago)

My post in there is another piece of evidence in the "people who kill threads" post as I revived and no one replied for a few weeks :P It takes skill..

American Film Institute TV special to honor ILE movie threads

Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:42 (seventeen years ago)

tehresa, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:43 (seventeen years ago)

also: don't feel bad. i've killed many a thread in my day.

tehresa, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:44 (seventeen years ago)

tehresa, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:44 (seventeen years ago)

Finefinemusic, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:45 (seventeen years ago)

Finefinemusic, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:46 (seventeen years ago)

tehresa, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:47 (seventeen years ago)

It's close.. but it's fun. I should Wu-Tang up all my friends' names. Coincidentally, my coworker's kid (3) randomly called me Wutexas one day and it's stuck with her!

Finefinemusic, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:47 (seventeen years ago)

DG, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 19:56 (seventeen years ago)

we will celebrate the 10-year anniversary with a big IRL meetup where we'll dress in costumes referencing our favorite LOL threads and we'll talk in impenetrable thread-specific terms that will really let the squares know where they stand, and there'll also be, like, a mark russell style song referring to many classic ilx moments, I have it on good authority that we're actually hiring mark russell to do this

it's going to be awesome

J0hn D., Tuesday, 22 July 2008 20:01 (seventeen years ago)

Great! Can I bring the napalm?

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 20:46 (seventeen years ago)

I'm going to celebrate an ageing in-joke by making a real-life Tankpuss.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 20:46 (seventeen years ago)

We should all do a synchronized dance, alone, in front of our computers, for a few minutes, and then maybe watch some television or drink a bottle of water.

WORLD FAP! (Could we ever manage it?)

Tuomas, Wednesday, 23 July 2008 08:11 (seventeen years ago)

I think we should get a book made at CafePress with excerpts from great threads to celebrate 10 years.

aldo, Wednesday, 23 July 2008 08:30 (seventeen years ago)

Don't think this board will survive past the forthcoming England vs America war tbh
