minus that extraneous comma

i think there's an assumption that threads are conversations - like on other boards - but there are a number of threads on ilx that are not, they are something else.

sarahel, Wednesday, 18 November 2009 02:19 (fifteen years ago) link

By the way, I think I have to strike off that example one. I don't think it's a legitimate example anymore.

bamcquern, Wednesday, 18 November 2009 02:19 (fifteen years ago) link

the kitsch example 1?

sarahel, Wednesday, 18 November 2009 02:21 (fifteen years ago) link

No, the derail example 1.

bamcquern, Wednesday, 18 November 2009 02:22 (fifteen years ago) link

you understand this thread after all?

sarahel, Wednesday, 18 November 2009 02:22 (fifteen years ago) link

there was this guy in high school who used to wear hypercolor shirts - i think he might have had a crush on me, which was weird, because i'm someone that people don't get crushes on - but for whatever reason, we were at a Denny's with a group of friends and I threw creamer packets at him and hit him in the face with one, and i think he stopped liking me after that, though he wasn't someone i would have gone out with.

I started this dumb bunny thread!

sarahel, Wednesday, 18 November 2009 02:34 (fifteen years ago) link

Okay, you win, I no longer get this thread.

bamcquern, Wednesday, 18 November 2009 02:35 (fifteen years ago) link

it was a bunny reference! night of the lepus - i like movies with mutant animals that attack/threaten society where the animals are traditionally non-threatening - like rabbits. the rabbits in that movie, they really try to make them look threatening, but the rabbits really just look confused and like they don't want to be held.

the cryptic crossword logic is starting to make sense to me now.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 18:57 (fourteen years ago) link

What the hell happened over at iltrmb today? Perfect storm, it seems. At least for them, it was.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:27 (fourteen years ago) link

i don't know - i don't think it's related to what happened on 77.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:29 (fourteen years ago) link

What happened on 77?

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:32 (fourteen years ago) link

i will email you.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:33 (fourteen years ago) link

Oh, man, I'm leaving on this sort of date in less than an hour and I should finish some homework. I like this girl - she's cute, I like the music she makes, but we don't seem to have any chemistry, and so I hope tonight is just a fun night and there's no pressure.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:41 (fourteen years ago) link

is this a new girl or one you've mentioned before?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:42 (fourteen years ago) link

From gamesetwatch: UK Gov't, Area/Code Launch Street Safety MMO [massively multiplayer online game]

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:43 (fourteen years ago) link

One I've mentioned before, I'm sure, one that lives downtown with Katie.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:43 (fourteen years ago) link

what kinda music does she do?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:45 (fourteen years ago) link

She sings and plays guitar, sometimes with this guy Sam. It's sort of ramshackle diy pop.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:46 (fourteen years ago) link

Sam will play drums, and then sometimes they switch. I think Sam does that in all of his bands.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:47 (fourteen years ago) link

i emailed you about that thing.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:47 (fourteen years ago) link

You mean you put a note in one of those pneumatic tubes like at the bank and it's working its way toward me.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:49 (fourteen years ago) link

Making a shwooooo sound.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:49 (fourteen years ago) link

yes - i was fascinated by those pneumatic tubes as a kid.

one of my friends suggested i casually hook up with some guy as a way of getting over my ex. i said that i didn't think i'd do that very well.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:50 (fourteen years ago) link

Susie says that someone she describes as a good conversationalist was describing that map to her.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:50 (fourteen years ago) link

Haha. Easier said than done.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:51 (fourteen years ago) link

I mean, you could always hook up with someone who would make you feel icky later.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:51 (fourteen years ago) link

we're not supposed to discuss that map, or discuss discussion of that map.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:52 (fourteen years ago) link

Really? I hadn't heard that.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:52 (fourteen years ago) link

Are there Capri Motels in Florida?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:53 (fourteen years ago) link

That sounds retarded. And not very clear, either. I didn't know people were more uptight over there than over here. It sort of doesn't make sense.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:54 (fourteen years ago) link

I don't know about Capri Motels. There are all kinds of motels, especially by beaches.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:54 (fourteen years ago) link

what does your waist look like

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:55 (fourteen years ago) link

I've been wanting to do this project for a while about Capri Motels - a photo + fiction project that involves going to and staying in a variety of Capri Motels. It's mainly because the name is really evocative of a certain era, and it's one of those names that isn't straightforwardly descriptive.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:56 (fourteen years ago) link

There are a lot of Capri Motels in California.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:57 (fourteen years ago) link

Florida seemed like another place where there would be a lot of Capri Motels.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:57 (fourteen years ago) link

Just saw the admin log. What's up? You don't think there's water on the moon?

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:59 (fourteen years ago) link

i wanted to know why there was no vitamin water on the moon.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:00 (fourteen years ago) link

Deleting unused users and clearing old suggest bans

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:00 (fourteen years ago) link

Why? There are minerals already in the water from all of the moondust.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:01 (fourteen years ago) link

This, like duckbutts or whatever - is the payoff so great? I don't know.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:01 (fourteen years ago) link

the moon kinda bores me actually.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:01 (fourteen years ago) link

Eff homework. I'll do it at midnight. Thank goodness the semester is winding down, because I have no stamina for this bs.

I think I'll spend the next twenty minutes eating and dressing.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:02 (fourteen years ago) link

should i go to Florida and take pictures of Capri motels?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:03 (fourteen years ago) link

Haha. Only if you've got the money to burn.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:03 (fourteen years ago) link

i haven't had a vacation in a decade. you do know the subtext of what i'm asking?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:04 (fourteen years ago) link

Yeah.

Remember that project I was working on? I solved a few minor problems, so I can move forward a bit.
