Time for some stirring. Who on ILE would make the cutest couples? Who would be the worst?

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Well, the cutest couple would have to include Nicky D. The only question then is who could complete the couple. Off the top of my head, Emma H seems appropriate given that they get on as it is.

― the pinefox, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Pete and Emma.

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Me and pinefox. IN HIS DREAMS.

― Nick, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Whilst obviously any couple with me in it would be cute I would have to draw the line at me + Pete. Unless me + Pete is the worst.

― Emma, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Ally and Ethan.

Suzy and Dave Q.

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Josh and DG. Suzy and Pinefox. Momus and Melissa W. Otis and Kris.

Someone include me in a a couple! Go on!

― Greg, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Greg and Nathalie.

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Ally and Momus. There'd never be a dull moment.

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Greg and Fred, obviously, as it sounds GREAT.

(Can I be in a couple TOO, please???)

Nicky D and Emma eh? Well well....

― Sarah, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Tom and Richard T.

― Greg, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Sarah and Norman Fay.

― Greg, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Sarah C. and MJ Hibbett, duh.

Except he hardly ever posts. Sarah C. and Stevie T. would be a fine complimentary mix.

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

What, you mean they'd pay each other lots of compliments? I suspect the reverse.

Why have I been paired with Suzy? And more importantly, should I be getting excited at the idea?

― the pinefox, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Actually I think Tom E and Sarah C would make some sense.

― the pinefox, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Gareth and Melissa W.

Geordie Racer and Jayne Middlemiss. Oops - that's not in the rules.

― the pinefox, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

― mark s, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Mark S and Robin C.

― the pinefox, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Some justification for copulation rationale would be nice.

― suzy, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

I was working on the Paula Abdul rule of relationships. Or the Scooby Doo rule, you might say.

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

No kidding. Cor!

― the pinefox, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Dave Motherfucking Popshots and Kerry K.

Nicole W. and Junichiro.

How could I forget - Josh and Alix.

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

PS: My response was to Suzy, not Tom, and I was NOT working on Tom's Paula principle.

― the pinefox, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Josh and Alix - it's inevitable.

― Greg, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Alix? Who is this Alix? Why haven't you told me about Alix, Josh?

Kerry - call me. *wink* Hubba hubba.

― David Raposa, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

― mark s, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Stop your sobbing, Mark S. You said yourself on another thread that nobody is worthy!

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

I would rather have no-one than get lumbered with Pete. Count yourself lucky Mark.

― Emma, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Eureka!! Mark S and Pete!

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

>:-)_...

― mark s, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Any for me ?

― anthony, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

You can have Mike Hanley, anthony.

― Nick, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Me and Momus???? The pretention would be unbearable for the world, it'd probably open some sort of evil vortex that would suck the entire world into it.

― Ally, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Always the best man, never the bride, errr, I mean groom.

― jel, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Jel and Kim!

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Pairing Hanle y up with someone is surely risky business. Those ocelots have a wicked jealous streak.

― Richard Tunnicliffe, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

ha, nicole and junichiro.

i think dave motherfucking etc and nathalie would work. or mel and pinefox. and i'd try anthony for a day (sub-qn: which ile-er would you 'try for a day'?).

― ethan, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Anthony, you like men of the cloth - how about the Dirty Vicar?

― Tom, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

I would try Ally for a day, just to see if she's really a man.

― Nick, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

I was hoping for Momus. But only orally .

― anthony, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Specifically, a trucker from Minnesota.

― Nick, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

C'mon, gimme a cut on the action here!

― Michael Bourke, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

The truth slowly comes out. Nick is in love with me. I told you all, but no one would believe. And now look! He wants to go with me!

I would like to date Mike for a day, just because I really want to meet him to find out if he's secretly someone I know.

― Ally, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

I said a day only. And there would be no funny business.

― Nick, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Yes, because I wouldn't allow any funny business. Hating sex, etc. Anyhow, it starts off with this begruding "Just a day!" crap. Then it becomes another day. Then another. Before I know it, you're my full fledged stalker. I've been expecting it to happen.

― Ally, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Don't we all want to meet Mike? I think we secretly adore him. Not me though. hah! I am jesting of course.

I think Momus would love Momus.

Menage a trois with Dave Motherfucking and Greg? I am up for it. Come to mama! ;-)

― nathalie (nathalie), Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Would Dave's mother also be involved somehow?

― nick, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Nick, uh no, I cried "Come to mama" I would fill that role of course.

― nathalie (nathalie), Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

Don't be talkin bout my momma.

― David Raposa, Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

If Momus would start smoking, would the old Momus hate him?

― nathalie (nathalie), Monday, 13 August 2001 00:00 (twenty-five years ago)

i reckon

― di, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

well, one of the dunedin kids came up with it. i mean, i agree about 'go fuck yourself', it's meaningless.

― ethan, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

menelaus is funny

― di, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I do what I can :) I have too much spare time

― Menelaus Darcy, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

hey ally, i'm sorry i've been pretty unfair to you. i was kind of annoyed at the way you shot down the fatnick fanclub, thread hijacking, juvenility etc when it was just a few people having fun. maybe you were having a bad day or something. anyway, if you are psycho, i am as much of a psycho so i should shut up.

― di, Tuesday, 6 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

...and then we can both be psychos together forever (TM American Beauty, sort of).

Hey, no hard feelings, though I still want to insist on pointing out that I have no problem with Mr. FatNick at all, rather that because of the way I taught myself to read I have a very difficult time reading his posts and it frustrates me! That's all my supposed nastiness was, and I am sorry if it bothered you because I really had no idea it was going to bother you quite as much as it did. So apologies for offending you, now we can all be friends again.

― Ally, Tuesday, 6 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Seven days to Valentine's Day - time to play Cupid, people!

Heh. Is this so we can hang off you and yell Pulp songs to the tourists?

― Alan Trewartha, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I want to join in.

― Anna, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Anna and Nicky D, methinks. (ie Anna has red hair, like a certain Aussie Actstress)

― Edna Welthorpe, Mrs, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i'm in wuv.

― jess, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You sop.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

tee hee.

― jess, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well, according to the rules of Paula Abdul I'm supposed to be paired up with a SEXY CAT.

Personally, I'd like to be matched with that guy who types in all caps.

― Mandee, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

>>> Well, according to the rules of Paula Abdul I'm supposed to be paired up with a SEXY CAT.

Why? Are you Paula Abdul?

― the pinefox, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

that guy who types all in caps?

paging...Hanle yDeus!

― jel, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Ah, but Nick already thinks I'm subconsciously obsessed with him after mis-spelling leathal/ lethal.

Fuel to the fire.

― Anna, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well, no, I'm not Paula Abdul--I have some great dance moves just like she does, so I guess that means I deserve a sexy cat.

― Mandee, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Solid! *wink*

― MC Scat Kat channelling Isaac from "The Love Boat", Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yeah, but everyone thinks that Nick is going otu with people when he isn't. Its one of his talents remember.

― Pete, Thursday, 7 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

DING DING! Is Cupid workin' today or what? I've got a big ol' mattress with an AMERICAN FLAG design here! If that doesn't scream out "Horizontal Rhumba with the master of rhythm", I don't know what does!

That's more like it! There should be some kind of ile valentines thread where we can suggest perfect couples, which works because I can exempt myself.

I choo-choo-choose Emma and Ronan! Inspired by their male-grooming bickering...

― Nicole, Saturday, 9 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I ain't no sexy cat.

― richard john gillanders, Saturday, 9 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I had forgotten that I had got completely ridiculed by everyone upthread -- silly me for only reading the last couple of posts...

― mark s, Sunday, 10 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I do think it's a bit unkind, Youn, to put ALL those people on your "worst couples" list. Some of them are undoubtedly very nice.

― Pyth, Sunday, 10 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Definitely no reflection on my unlucky match-up; I just realized it could be read that way.

― Pyth, Sunday, 10 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

no reflection on my unlucky match-up

Are you being self-effacing or rude here?

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

This thread has taken on slightly sinister connotations for me since I heard 'Insignificance' by Jim O'Rourke....
