four years pass...


@amateurist: 'misogyni' is my Danish spellcheck kicking in. Could you please stop making fun of me for being a foreigner? All over this site, you rag me and talk down to me for not being born in the same country as you, and not speaking your language as well as an English speaker. It pisses me off. So shut the fuck up, you xenophobic asshole. How well do you write in your second language? I write fucking brilliant English for a Dane, I've had pieces published on English-language websites, and I'm not going to take your patronizing bullshit anymore. Go to hell.

i'm putting this at the top of my CV

I've no axe to grind with fredb but as far as euro-mordybaiting-lefty-makes-overly-simplistic-arguments-while-looking-for-mad-kudos-hairtrigger-temper ilxors go le bateau ivre is my boy from now til eternity and I don't think we have room for a reserve

THOUGHT YOU COULD ESCAPE TO ANOTHER THREAD? WHAT ARE YOU TWO UP TO UNDER THE COVERS WITH THAT FLASHLIGHT?

Need to identify this eighties/early nineties film. amy do you know what that movie with crabs might be

dylannn, Monday, 6 July 2015 23:15 (eight years ago) link

oh man that sounds familiar, but no

wizzz! (amateurist), Monday, 6 July 2015 23:45 (eight years ago) link

four months pass...

i don't want to ruin the paris thread w/ this engagement so i'll place it here:

i kinda didn't really notice you as a distinct poster for quite a while (nothing personal - i'm often very bad at linking individual posts to particular posters) but recently in between you calling my snotty twice in like a week, then some kinda lame posts on two separate threads i went back and realized you were the guy whining on the Nigeria thread that you didn't like the links i posted to ilx. so i have two questions a. were you always a crank? b. do you have a personal issue w/ me or am i just getting normal amateurist blowback and if it is personal, can i suggest that maybe you go back to your habit of not reading my posts? i mean i don't care but it does seem bizarre.

Mordy, Monday, 16 November 2015 20:10 (eight years ago) link

were you always a crank?

and when will you stop beating your wife?

Aimless, Monday, 16 November 2015 20:12 (eight years ago) link

hey amateurist, let me ask you a question: WHAT TIME IS LOVE?

also: leave Mordy alone. he's a star and sincere.

Mordy, Monday, 16 November 2015 20:16 (eight years ago) link

hi mordy i'm actually not sure what you're referring to! i have nothing against you actually have a vaguely positive impression of you (i write "vaguely" just b/c i have a pretty vague impression of everybody on this site, it's really only the folks i've met IRL who i have a firmer impression of). i appreciate that you seem willing to buck some of the left-wing orthodoxy that shows up here, even if i don't always agree with you.

i don't actually recall calling you snotty (or even using the word "snotty") at all... are you sure you aren't mixing me up with another poster?

it's true that i don't like reading slavoj zizek but i don't mind that you posted a link to something he wrote! if there are some other links you posted that i didn't like, i don't remember them. there was some time when you (among other people) were posting a ton of thinkpieces about something or other and i remember expressing some general exhaustion of looking at thinkpieces... but i can't recall if i aimed that directly at you.

anyway that's all to say that i'm sorry if it seems like i'm picking on you, and i don't intend that, to the point where i honestly don't know how you might have gotten that impression.

wizzz! (amateurist), Monday, 16 November 2015 20:16 (eight years ago) link

i actually have no idea where i failed to "leave mordy alone." i don't think i engage with, or criticize, him any more than anyone else. i'm a bit mystified but i guess i'll consider it more in the future.

wizzz! (amateurist), Monday, 16 November 2015 20:17 (eight years ago) link

oh, i guess i did call you 'snotty' since you were mocking the idea that a communications professor would write about 'twilight.' i guess i think that is a little snotty. it doesn't seem like a particularly merciless putdown and i don't mean any real ill will.

wizzz! (amateurist), Monday, 16 November 2015 20:18 (eight years ago) link

ok no worries. normally i wouldn't notice but you wrote these two posts within a week of each other and snotty is the kind of thing you don't get called very often (tho ironically i do have a very strong high school memory in reference to being called snotty so i was susceptible to it standing out).

Mordy, Monday, 16 November 2015 20:18 (eight years ago) link

I wish you princes of the internet every happiness.

skateboards are the new combover (Dr Morbius), Monday, 16 November 2015 20:19 (eight years ago) link

well now that i found the posts you reference, the other time i called you "snotty" is when you made a very snarky blanket dismissal of folks who support BDS. i'm actually not sure where i sit in relation to BDS, and i can see the points on both sides, but i think your caricature of people who would support BDS was, indeed, rather snotty.

so i guess this comes down to us having disagreements and me calling you names, for which i'm sorry. but that's pretty par for the course on ILX, and in context it doesn't seem like the strongest insult, really.

i dunno.

wizzz! (amateurist), Monday, 16 November 2015 20:21 (eight years ago) link

1. zizek has sriracha'ed

2. donno if its pass-agg or the art of pretend forgetfulness but i like how you each started this exchange by declaring that you are only vaguely aware of each other. you are both awful so count yourselves lucky, how i wish i could forget ;-)

flopson, Monday, 16 November 2015 21:16 (eight years ago) link

i remember flopson. he's mopson and cotton tails brother.

Mordy, Monday, 16 November 2015 21:18 (eight years ago) link

Is Zizek mordy's Perrin?

how's life, Monday, 16 November 2015 21:45 (eight years ago) link

when did the "affecting not to know who flopson is" meme start?

lol @ "are you a crank?" do you say shit like that to strangers irl?

brimstead, Monday, 16 November 2015 21:49 (eight years ago) link

actually never mind, that's too meta trivia even for me xp

Amblyomma_americanum_tick.jpg (wins), Monday, 16 November 2015 21:49 (eight years ago) link

I don't know. His former name made me hungrier though.

chepa food, wrote this on thread Your secret mental list of chain restaurants that you will not frequent on board I Love Everything on 05-Apr-2005

ok all the mcd's haters still need to at least recognize the brilliance of the dollar menu. i mean you can get like a double cheeseburger, mcchicken sandwich, side salad, fruit and yogurt parfait and 2 apple pies for like not even 6 bucks! which is like the price of ONE hardees burger w/ fries. (1 monster burger alone tops 6 bucks i think)

flopson, Monday, 16 November 2015 22:03 (eight years ago) link

i really don't know what's going on, i don't mean any ill will toward anyone, sorry if i offended anyone etc. etc.

wizzz! (amateurist), Monday, 16 November 2015 22:07 (eight years ago) link

don't apologize, this revive was totally weird! public trial or some shit

brimstead, Monday, 16 November 2015 22:08 (eight years ago) link

In fact, let me take this opportunity to apologize for the dickish posts I've made towards you in the semi-recent past.

brimstead, Monday, 16 November 2015 22:12 (eight years ago) link

see, i wouldn't even have remembered that. no need to apologize.

wizzz! (amateurist), Monday, 16 November 2015 22:14 (eight years ago) link

Cuntishness itt. leave the lads to clear it out. Two good posters obv.

aye lads, just popped in for a meanie meanie coz i saw the opportunity, meant nothin by it ocourse

flopson, Monday, 16 November 2015 22:23 (eight years ago) link

amateuris, i asked you a questiont: WHAT TIME IS LOVE?

Operating Thetan III (monster mash), Monday, 16 November 2015 22:28 (eight years ago) link

i thought mordy was being noticeably polite considering he's talking to this board's grandpa simpson

mattresslessness, Monday, 16 November 2015 22:30 (eight years ago) link

I've always appreciated am's posts, especially in the movie threads, where he consistently makes unexpected insights.

funny how opinions can differ

I realize I've been mixing up Aimless and Amateurist for years, something that won't happen again after Aimless' tragically stupid sci-fi thread

Οὖτις, Monday, 16 November 2015 22:43 (eight years ago) link

how on earth can you mix those two up??? i mean, unless you're bad with names that start with "a"

Operating Thetan III (monster mash), Monday, 16 November 2015 22:44 (eight years ago) link

xp- say "tragically stupid sci-fi thread" out loud

flopson, Monday, 16 November 2015 22:45 (eight years ago) link

it's the latter. prior to that scifi thread I hadn't really noticed Aimless' pedantic schoolmarm charm

xp

wizzz! (amateurist), Monday, 16 November 2015 23:00 (eight years ago) link

also , mattresslessness, are you a jason lescalleet fan, or perhaps jason lescalleet himself?

wizzz! (amateurist), Monday, 16 November 2015 23:17 (eight years ago) link

no to the latter

mattresslessness, Monday, 16 November 2015 23:19 (eight years ago) link

amaeuturist: we don't know each other. i appreciate your presence, though! :D lol. i always enjoy your posts. but, mordy's the man. if he has an issue, i have an issue, sir!

in a hideous town (monster mash), Monday, 16 November 2015 23:21 (eight years ago) link

did you sleep last night? I've seen in several updated threads in the last few hours.

The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 26 November 2015 12:28 (eight years ago) link

no, i've been very stressed lately and can't sleep! which is bad because i have to get up ("get up") to cook thanksgiving dinner for arriving family.

wizzz! (amateurist), Thursday, 26 November 2015 12:29 (eight years ago) link

didn't want to keep my partner awake so just casting about for some kind of 'interaction' here i suppose
