I've heard of it but never been.

― jaymc, Friday, 2 March 2007 20:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Ever seen a band play there??

― KitCat, Friday, 2 March 2007 20:52 (seventeen years ago) link

Their upcoming shows look... unpromising.

(They emailed us asking about our availability - we never contacted them)

― KitCat, Friday, 2 March 2007 20:55 (seventeen years ago) link

The fact that I didn't even realize it was a music venue doesn't bode well.

― jaymc, Friday, 2 March 2007 20:56 (seventeen years ago) link

It just seems really random to me. It would maybe seem less random if they myspaced us or something.

My first 2 Usenet posts

I was 17. I was annoying as hell.

OMG!!!

Someone read teh Redeye this morning!!! I'm at the library where there is an older man in a suit logged into Sugardaddies.com!! (A place for cute young women to meet their sugar daddies, doncha know?)

― Jesse, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:03 (seventeen years ago) link

There was an article about it in the Redeye this morning.

― Jesse, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:04 (seventeen years ago) link

As annoying as Chris Everett?

Little internet Jeff = f'in adorable!

― Jenny, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:05 (seventeen years ago) link

I rated Jeff's first USENET post 5 STARS

― dan m, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:06 (seventeen years ago) link

why were you thinking about christ everett at 1 a.m.?

― chicago kevin, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:08 (seventeen years ago) link

That article quotes Catharine MacKinnon.

After a quick check, everything I posted on a metal board during high school seems to be have been lost to time. Thank god.

― Jordan, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:10 (seventeen years ago) link

computer keeps dying
and coming back to life
and dying
and coming back one more time to tease me
and then dying again
then knocking on the door to be let in again because it's gonna be different this time it promises

i am going to smash it

my first post was about slant 6, i think. i had been lurking for about a week.

― La Lechera, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:11 (seventeen years ago) link

I probably responded to that post because I was all into Slant 6 back in the day.

― KitCat, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:12 (seventeen years ago) link

OK, so my work nemesis, let me tell you about him. He was extra aggressive this morning, scowling and speaking to no one. At one point he saw me talking with a coworker (I was talking about this morning's CTA problems) and he came up to me, lunged a little (clenched his fists at his side and puffed up his chest) and said, "What the fuck are you talking about? Are you bitching? You got something to say?"

For the rest of the day if we walked anywhere near each other he made sure to brush me with his elbow, and at one point as I was walking away from him he said, "fucking cocksucker" under his breath! He's NUTS. This is going to stop.

― Jesse, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:12 (seventeen years ago) link

OK deej, it's cool.

I'm looking through Salon Table Talk posts ca. 1998-99 to see if I can find anything I wrote. I only posted a few times in the "Movies" section. Have no idea what screenname I used. My second post was something embarrassing because I had spent months reading these people and when I was addressed by Poster X, I was like "OMG *the* Poster X said something to me!"

― jaymc, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:12 (seventeen years ago) link

ha sarah - you were already talking about slant 6, which is why i chimed in.

― La Lechera, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:13 (seventeen years ago) link

jesse, don't let that dude intimidate you. fuck that dude. i say we issue a chilx beatdown on the motherfucker.

― chicago kevin, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:14 (seventeen years ago) link

Dude's getting the roid rage! I bet he has mad bacne.

― dan m, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:15 (seventeen years ago) link

haha mad bacne

― La Lechera, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:15 (seventeen years ago) link

The UG lounge is where I watch the new seasons of a certain mob show - but I wouldn't want the premium cable network to find out that they air it.

One night at the start of season six there was a metal band setting up to shoot a music video there. It's not a bad bar at all for hanging out (it was always dead, in a good way, on those Sunday nights I was there), and they have beer specials, but I don't know that it'd be worth the trouble of playing a show there.

― Eazy, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:16 (seventeen years ago) link

He's seriously the ONLY problematic character at my work. If it weren't for him, my peers would be a dream team.

― Jesse, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:16 (seventeen years ago) link

My brain wants to transpose "mad bacne" into "bad macne," but that makes even less sense.

― Jenny, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:17 (seventeen years ago) link

MINE TOO!

― La Lechera, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:17 (seventeen years ago) link

― horseshoe, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:17 (seventeen years ago) link

acne caused by mac cosmetics?

― La Lechera, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:18 (seventeen years ago) link

I had mac and cheese for lunch.

― jaymc, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:19 (seventeen years ago) link

― chicago kevin, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:19 (seventeen years ago) link

acne on or caused by a person named mac?

― La Lechera, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:19 (seventeen years ago) link

― Jesse, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:19 (seventeen years ago) link

― chicago kevin, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:19 (seventeen years ago) link

No, not that one, the one before that.

― Jesse, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:20 (seventeen years ago) link

i had bf named mac once
he was sorta greasy and very well could have given me a zit or three

― La Lechera, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:20 (seventeen years ago) link

You've never heard the term "bacne" before? Acne on your back? A common side-effect of steroid abuse...

― dan m, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:20 (seventeen years ago) link

FUCK YOU, NO XPOST WARNING. FUCK YOU IN HELL.

The one where he has acne on his raincoat.

― Jesse, Friday, 2 March 2007 21:20 (seventeen years ago) link
