Some of those lines, got cut off, here are the complete lines:

I thought I'd play it cool and that I'd see you and your gold headband again before the show was over. I was wrong, I'm apparently not that cool.

I swear we had a moment together during "Home" but I couldn't tell if that guy you were with was your man or just a friend.

The way your hair fell, the way you moved without realizing it, the way your beautiful crystal eyes fixated on the invisible vibrations.

I came back for you. I couldn't find you, and someone great was gone.

I was bummed our chat was over and tried to find you again downstairs. Obviously, I couldn't find you in the sea of 3000.

I told you your sweater was on the ground. You told me I talked too much.

I asked you for your name. You were reluctant. Then, I realized you had a boyfriend. Let's have coffee.

You were in the PIT and I think my ass brushed up against your thy, but I think we were both pretty drunk, it could have been anyone's thy.

I hope you read this and I hope you will marry me, I love you women in all white at LCD.

Oh my god these are almost all amazing.

Probably from Murphy himself.

that line stands in for thousands of twee-oblique love lyrics and the entirety of James Mercer's lyrical output

Women in white at LCD I love you, but your sweater's on the ground

not so memorable after all, then

Wait, what the fuck - a PIT? Anyway, that one for "thy".

I'm torn between "ass brushed against your thy" and "someone great is gone". The first one is classic a "why she look intrsting" sort of way, but the second one cracked me up more.

NoTimeBeforeTime, Sunday, 10 April 2011 20:35 (fourteen years ago)

"thy" all the way

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

these are all pretty great

The way your hair fell, the way you moved without realizing it, the way your beautiful crystal eyes fixated on the invisible vibrations.

Sounds like a Phish lot conversation imho.

Love that the second use of "thy" confirms that this person actually thinks that is the proper usage.

Aziz Ansari was talking about this show last night and said he was in the pit. I wonder if it was his thy that got ass-rubbed.

bnw, Thursday, 14 April 2011 20:46 (fourteen years ago)

I would rub all these Aziz thys. I love that pic of him crowdsurfing.

"I saw Trey and the boys in 83 in the UV ROTC basement" is the great lost line from Losing My Edge."

kkvgz, Thursday, 14 April 2011 22:56 (fourteen years ago)

Yes!

'what are you, the Hymen Protection League of America?' (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Thursday, 14 April 2011 22:59 (fourteen years ago)

I kind of think you are my new favorite poster just for getting that so factually correct.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

I have not listened to Phish much in the last decade, but when I did, I was fully in it.

kkvgz, Thursday, 14 April 2011 23:04 (fourteen years ago)

no offense, but kinda noticed LCD getting some mileage out of the jam band crowd... barf.
