thank god we're back

i hit the wrong button my browser, and here we are

^ one of my favorite pkd novels

at first i was all like that scene in total recall where he gets thrown out onto the surface of mars, then it got better

Man, I got some work done, it was horrible! I missed u, ILX <3

O_O

thank god we're backed up

- listened to blink 182 a lot

Just when I thought I was out...

yay, we're back in time for loutallica npr traffic

Phew.

IT LIVES

i didn't know how fucking addicted I was to this shit til it was gone

I would keep trying to check it out unconsciously, without realizing that I had just typed "ilx" into various search windows

I tried to buy "ilx" on ebay once

oh the shame

Thanks, stet & co.

I have still been failing to get shit done.

I saw Keith Fullerton Whitman yesterday, and after I found a 10 pound bill on the ground, so I bought the disingenuity b/w disingenuousness LP, and then I discovered that one of the tracks on it is a live recording from the one other live set I saw KFW play 3 years ago.

And I got a cool phone and a turntable and went to Occupy London, and though of (not actually) funny puns w/r/t rolling dance partisans materials. And I missed a potential large scale FAP because of the ILX being down.

How badly I've been wanting to tell a group of strangers on the internet all of this.

yeah I kept accidentally/unconsciously trying to get here every 5 minutes I was at a computer

F5

Yes! I came back from Vegas to find it down and have been in danger of getting some work done ever since.

I started doing long-running non-interactive testing, which of course means that it was the PERFECT time for the site to go down

my life was the same as it ever wuz, minus the ilx

can i just shout out a massove "bravo!" to the folks that got our lifeline back online

three cheers for stet & keith and everyone else!

I worked on a theory stating that I am actually more productive with ILX around

WHAT UP

dayo sat with arms folded in protest until ilx came back online

BIG YEP THAT STET N DEM

Stet, you are a prince a prince I tell you. I did spend at least a few minutes this morning wondering how in the world you found time to work on this thing; did you take time off from your REAL job??

i've been coming up with more would-be-rejected screen names.

painted a big pic. tbf would have done it anyway.

I feel like writing Stet an unsolicited recommendation letter.

yeah can we buy stet a hat or a chicken or something

holler at stet, we're back

I propose a hat with a chicken in it

was a nice vacation to be honest. thank god it's over.

chicken with a hat on

did you take time off from your REAL job??
I had a day booked off this week anyway, by coincidence, but tbh a lot of the work was just waiting for 4gb files to move about or verify etc.

i'll write a proper post explaining things in a bit.

felt sadly out of the loop re: the last republican debate, because i sure as fuck wasn't going to WATCH it

that's what twitter is for!

mainly just refreshed ilx
read people from ilx's twitter feeds
started some novels (rip)

WE'RE BACK??????????.

apparently it's now muscle memory to click my ILX toolbar bookmark whenever I'm done reading another website or w/e

and then i would stare sadly at the bomb for a little while.

in fact i don't remember clicking the ilx toolbar bookmark just now

it took me a little while to realise that what i was seeing was ilx back

fifthed

actually i was fourth tyvm

I read a lot more Facebook than I normally do

this led me to discover a horrifying picture my wife's cousin commented on that featured what appeared to be a woman's exposed breast with enormous slug-sized blackheads embedded in her areola and nipple

my skin has been crawling for approximately 48 hours

also, fuck Facebook

hey DJP, have you checked out the trypophobia thread

Trypophilia and Trypophobia: A Picture Thread? (Not exactly NSFW but some deeply disturbing images in here)

feel free to ignore all the warnings in the thread title

i had already been taking a break from ilx when, conveniently, it broke down.

lol no I have not, and for good reason

or at least I haven't looked at any of the pictures on it

if you would like your skin to crawl for 48 more hours I highly recommend you look at at least some of the pictures

What was the final post before it went down, btw? Just so we can make someone feel guilty or something

poll

oh btw i forgot to say THANK YOU STET

What was the final post before it went down, btw? Just so we can make someone feel guilty or something

I'm currently blaming Sara R-C, if that helps

oh I forgot to mention, I spent Sunday watching rebroadcasts of the MLK dedication so I could watch my brother perform with Miri Ben-Ari

he has a bunch of pictures of himself with Dan Rather on Facebook now, lol

ILX has been back up for 2 hours and I've only just found out. In answer to the thread title question, soldering together this...

^^^
yeah there is so much i want to hit up ILX about, day-to-day. so thanks for everything!

finally getting a chance to properly ingest/digest the lulu comp. you sick fucks. :-)

my dog got sick and pooped inside twice while ilx was down. COINCIDENCE?!

There's got to be some Whiney joke in there somewhere but I'm not going to bother finding it.

sang I AM THE DOG! I AM THE DOG! WHOOOOO! approximately ten million times while we were gone <3

thanks tons, stet

<3 u all.

I think this was the Final Post btw http://www.ilxor.com/ILX/ThreadSelectedControllerServlet?showall=true&bookmarkedmessageid=3037333&boardid=77&threadid=286

facebook

typical, wld be that 77. xp

I had to resort to seeing ilxors in person.

thank you stet <3

Our long nightmare is over!

I've been wondering what's been going on at OWS as I've been missing the play-by-play coverage. Thanks guys!

I read a lot more Facebook than I normally do

Me too. And started playing Sporcle quizzes again.

I listened to Björk's new album and I didn't like it.
I listened to Peter Gabriel's new album and I liked it.

I just looked at BCO instead of ILX which was kinda painful at times

I realized that Twitter is the worst

facebooked

That looks fun, snoball.

All of the above.

Also wrote a (neat, concise but not actually *good*) blog piece summarising why NATO intervened in Libya but not anywhere else.

Last week in my job so nothing productive to do even if I'd been willing to do it. Now following about s thousand tweeters.

remembered how much I hate Facebook. wrote a lot, and did a lot of yoga. this art professor guy asked me out on a date and i went, but it wasn't as riveting as ILX. some good conversation about painting tho

this led me to discover a horrifying picture my wife's cousin commented on that featured what appeared to be a woman's exposed breast with enormous slug-sized blackheads embedded in her areola and nipple

Lotus Bewb?? This weekend I went to the Sheep and Wool Festival and saw my friend who last year had a Lotus Bewb hat.

Spent my internet time on Ravelry and Twitter.

this art professor guy asked me out on a date and i went, but it wasn't as riveting as ILX.

yikes....

;)

ha, i mean, it wasn't awful--he was nice and paid for dinner and stuff

my brain has just been on mars recently & i'm leaving town in 8 weeks, so i haven't been able to focus on anything besides a) work and b) moving

- studied for final exams
- booked holiday flights to ~america~
- researched living o/s properly for a while
- sort of forgot ilx existed for a day or two

oh and

- was sick

i worked and i thought of many things i wanted to post here but couldn't. i'm so glad we're all back here...<3 ilx.

real ilxors knew how to carry on posting, just sayin

Lotus Bewb??

is THAT what that was?????? jesus
