Who on ILE has made you laugh out loud? I just snorted at Nick's post on the Chuck thread and then looked around guiltily in case my colleagues had noticed and I would have to explain about ILE.

― Tom, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Almost everyone at one time or the other .

― anthony, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Maybe I should have said "what on ILE" too....

― Tom, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

ethan usually... Hanle->y too, but only like twice.

― Cryosmurf, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

There have been a few things that have make me laugh out loud but I'm damned if I can remember them. I'm almost certain Hanle y has been behind none of them.

― Nick, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"they eat bananas = they are monkeys" is poss. my fave post of all. I don't know why.

― mark s, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yes that was a goodun. Don't tell me that was Hanle y?

― Nick, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm afraid it was Mr Hanley.

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I usually laugh when me and Otis start fighting, but thankfully my coworkers already all know the deal with "Ally's psychopathic friend" so I can just say, "Oh, Otis emailed me" and they're all, oh, okay.

― Ally, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Ninjasquid's reponse on the Generations thread just made me snigger. There was no snorting though. Tom, that's disgusting.

― Nick, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Leave me alone, you Charo rip-off" is easily, easily, easily the best post of all time.

― Ally, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

hanle y's 'getting pissed on by sea captain' response to the foil in yr teeth thread. the lack of specifier makes it hilarious.

― ethan, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The following sentence in Gareth's Pinefox impersonation made me laugh out loud - "This Jacques Derrida thread, I thought it was going to be about a new kind of chocolate or car."

― Andrew L, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

HOw can one not laugh at Ally's bold sassy and cynical dissertations on why all is bad

― Mike Hanle y, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Now I'm bold and sassy? Fantastical.

― Charo Rip Off, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It was quite funny when Dan was 'talking' like Yoda the other day.

― jel, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Because I have a retarded sense of humour I find random 'BLURILLAZ' highly amusing.

― DG, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i read the entire thread about allison with the dog before i went to the page, and then laughed to the point of tears thinking of that dog as 'sinister-looking' and (especially) 'trying to sell a baked beans recipe'. both are so very true.

― ethan, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

That poor dog.

― Ally, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Dude, it IS a shifty looking littel canine! I bet it bites everythings!

― Mike Hanle y, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Mark Sinker has proved he is clearly the funniest as well as the cleverest person on the board with the immortal line:

Some sleep, some read, Hanle y masturbates a profesionally shaved ocelot.

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Cor!

(They misspell "professionally" = they are monkeys)

― mark s, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Of course you are aware of "HOw do you tittilate an ocelot? You Oscilate its tit alot?"

― Mike Hanle y, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

And we'd be aware of this why?

― Ally, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I don't think I can single anyone out because I find this board consistently funny. Oftentimes SCREAMINGLY funny. Hopefully I'll be able to meet up with some of the UK folks when I'm over there later this month. (I arrive the day after Kate and Paul return from tour and have an entire free day. ROCK!)

― Dan Perry, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Actually, Nude Spock's self-titled thread just did it for me: The Sound of One Man Having Some Serious Problems.

― Nitsuh, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Look what else I did just to make you laugh: http://www.well.com/www/cynsa/explicar.jpg Nah, Actually I was trying to throw it away.

― Nude Spock, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

what were you doing with your other hand!?

― ethan, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Spock scares me. Blurillaz cracks me up.

― bnw, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Um... color copying x-rays? Hey, that makes sense!

― Nude Spock, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

cut it out

― Mike Hanley, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

There's always non-human speech, Davo. Have you tried Klingon? (mark s on the human speech thread)

ethan's stereolab and blurillaz diagrams on ILM

― youn, Wednesday, 8 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I feel hurt.
Valiadte me you Goddamn Motherfuckers.

― anthony, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

sp: 'Validate'.

― the pinefox, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

that's not phunny, pinefox. ;-)

― nathalie (nathalie), Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Valiadte me you Goddamn Motherfuckers.

If you ever need self valiadtion, just meet me in the alley by the railway station. Fuck, that's not going to work - I'm not gay. We could meet round there and I could laugh at your jokes if you like.

― Nick, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I wish Nick would just wither away into total fey waifness

― Mike Hanle y, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

What's with all the negativity lately, Mike?

― Ally, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

shut up wanna-be Charo

― Mike Hanle y, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Mike's interpretation of Triumph the Insult Comic Dog is currently sllaying me.

― Dan Perry, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The problem is that Mike just wants to see me dressed up as Charo. He thinks it's mad sexy. He should've come with us to the Works the other night.

― Ally, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I am asexual

― Mike Hanle y, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

A sexual deviant more like.

― Emma, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm glad everyone's finally seeing it my way on the subject of Mr. Hanley. But if he wasn't one I wouldn't love him so.

― Ally, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You'll never unravel this enigma, you oatmeal sandwhiches

― Mike Hanle y, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Mike is a robot. Hanle y is a serial code. I know this to be true.

― jel, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

A misfiring robot, that's for sure.

― Ally, Thursday, 9 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I just made wee wee in my pants. See Dan's idiot child story here

― Nick, Friday, 10 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

That wasn't idiocy, that was GENIUS. To this day, one of the first things we do when we see each other is start going, "Tiger, tiger burning bright!" over and over.

― Dan Perry, Friday, 10 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I like how half the link-containing posts on ILE are immediately suffixed w/ a follow-up "FuXOr"-type post cuz the gripper posting 'em got the HTML wrong. Fucking cracks me up.

― AP, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

HTML humour - classic or

― Nick, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

fuXoR. That's actually turned into a double-ironic joke if you look at the source code. How do you stop browsers recognising tags?

― NI, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Nick = gripper.

― AP, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

What does this mean? I assume it's not a Grange Hill reference.

― Nick, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Browsers ignore anything inside <> if it's not valid HTML. Hence the disappering <dud>

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I know, but there's a way of getting them not to recognise even valid tags - Dan used to it show the pinefox how to do blue writing a while ago.

And what about 'gripper'?

― Nick, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

What, d'you mean like this <a href="http://www.google.co.uk">google</a>?

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Thank you.

Gripper?

― Nick, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Gripper = egg.

― AP, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Is it now an insult to call someone an egg? I don't understand. I must be getting old.

― Emma, Wednesday, 15 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yes.

― the pinefox, Thursday, 16 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm with Emma on the egg confusion. If I am being insulted I insist on knowing exactly how. Bad egg, good egg yes. But just 'egg'? It makes no sense at all.

― Nick, Thursday, 16 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"what you egg? young fry of treachery!" [stabs him]
macbeth: egg = KEITH CHEGWIN in Polanski version. Hence insult....

― mark s, Thursday, 16 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

chEGGwin geddit

― mark s, Thursday, 16 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Now it all becomes crystal clear. Except how does Gripper = egg? Eh?

― Emma, Thursday, 16 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Emma = goose.

― AP, Thursday, 16 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

So far today I am a goose and a harridan. I think I should remind you that I have already punched one ILEer and would not be adverse to doing it again.

― Emma, Thursday, 16 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Hang on, geese lay eggs. What are you getting at?

― Nick, Thursday, 16 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Squawk.

― Emma, Thursday, 16 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

six months pass...

This kept me happy all of last week:

"DeXness: Wouldn't it be great if all slash fiction had to include Slash?"

― Graham, Monday, 11 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

my boss is called Charo.

― MarkH, Monday, 11 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

that thread where poor Chris was called a sex tourist for going to Thailand made me LOL.

― MarkH, Monday, 11 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

This thread's revival has got me wondering what this terrific joke I made was. What was 'the Chuck thread'?

― N., Monday, 11 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I was wondering that too. Most unlike me.

― Tom, Monday, 11 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

This maybe.

― Graham, Monday, 11 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Err, well done (I think), mini me.

― N., Monday, 11 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

seven years pass...

classic "when ILX was just 12 people" stuff

― Hard House SugBanton (blueski), Thursday, 21 May 2009 16:04 (sixteen years ago)

"You know who's funny? How about Jim."
"Oh, yeah, you're right. Another funny poster? Betty."
"I almost forgot about Betty. She sure makes me laugh."
"But not as much as that guy who wrote the Napster FAQ!"
"Haha, what a laughter fest."
