I shared a bed with Haikunym in a dream. We spooned.

stevem and I share the exact same birthday.

― n/a (Nick A.), Thursday, 2 June 2005 15:21 (nineteen years ago) link

There was a time when I would have said Aaron Zanders. Now I guess I say Latebloomer. Similar part of globe, non-drivers, similar musical taste, similar fun-making of others at Autechre show, similar sense of humor.

No one spings to mind, perhaps I don't know enough about my fellow ilxers to say. Or perhaps I didn't really think hard enough, that's probably the case.

Hey, finally mentioned in one of these "name the ILXOR" threads! Thanks, Eisbar.

― mike a, Thursday, 2 June 2005 18:34 (nineteen years ago) link

I share Middlesex County roots with Maria (though I'm about a decade older than her) - she's from Metuchen, I'm from Monroe.

― mike a, Thursday, 2 June 2005 18:35 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm like no one at all!

― Gear! (can Jung shill it, Mu?) (Gear!), Thursday, 2 June 2005 18:35 (nineteen years ago) link

Gear, out musical tastes are very similar. That's not very odd though.

― Haikunym (Haikunym), Thursday, 2 June 2005 18:45 (nineteen years ago) link

actually we've got a lot of strange similarities, roxy. we both have flying cars! : D

― Gear! (can Jung shill it, Mu?) (Gear!), Thursday, 2 June 2005 18:51 (nineteen years ago) link

I know it's just music, but i have EXACTLY the same taste in music as Sir Raggett.

― Richard K (Richard K), Thursday, 2 June 2005 19:34 (nineteen years ago) link

Teeny and I have a few things in common when it comes to our families.

― Je4nne ƒur¥ (Je4nne Fury), Thursday, 2 June 2005 19:39 (nineteen years ago) link

Me and Jess were actually grown in the same tube

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 2 June 2005 19:45 (nineteen years ago) link

Really Je4nne? Identical?

― Ken L (Ken L), Thursday, 2 June 2005 19:50 (nineteen years ago) link

me and gunther heartymeal are really, really, like, common-like

1. We have 99% of the same genes
2. We both grew up in Greeley, CO
3. We both like saying "grodey"

That's where the SIMILARITIES END

i have to agree with roxymuzak. she/me/we/are teh awesome!

― latebloomer: Pain Don't Hurt (latebloomer), Thursday, 2 June 2005 21:37 (nineteen years ago) link

I know it's just music, but i have EXACTLY the same taste in music as Sir Raggett.

One of us. Or one of me. If you will.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 2 June 2005 21:40 (nineteen years ago) link

Me & Ned Raggett were nearly called Seth.

― Teh HoBB (the pirate king), Thursday, 2 June 2005 21:50 (nineteen years ago) link

Okay, long shot here: Who in here is a half-Spanish, half-Mexican twentysomething from the Southwest quadrant of the U.S. who is hugely enamored of '80s New Wave & New Romantic music and styles, who does crossword puzzles for fun, who has really long hair, an olive complexion, a love for Wheat Thins and Diet Coke with Lime, who loves watching programs about food, who's Catholic, and who is pretty much a homebody?

― The Kind and Benevolent Oracle of Dee (Dee the Lurker), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:05 (nineteen years ago) link

who does crossword puzzles for fun

Is there another reason for doing them?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:08 (nineteen years ago) link

I do them to keep myself from going senile, and it's not working.

― Rock Hardy (Rock Hardy), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:11 (nineteen years ago) link

No, but there are other things to do for fun.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:16 (nineteen years ago) link

Is there another reason for doing them?

I meant "for fun" to mean "as a hobby", i.e. hey, this is a major fun-making hobby of mine when I have enough time to actually have a hobby. You know, instead of doing something *else* as a hobby. i.e. what Andrew said (many thousands of thanks, Andrew).

― The Kind and Benevolent Oracle of Dee (Dee the Lurker), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:24 (nineteen years ago) link

Fuck. I must find someone who lived in Miami, loves the Go-Betweens, and enjoys Quaker Oats.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:34 (nineteen years ago) link

I am increasingly and almost entirely convinced that Alex in Doncaster and I are the same person, as have the exact same taste in nearly everything and eerily similar biographical details and both live in boring industrial towns away from anything exciting.

― edward o (edwardo), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:36 (nineteen years ago) link

and loves hall & oates -- don't forget THAT one, mr. soto!

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:37 (nineteen years ago) link

"and loves hall & oates -- don't forget THAT one, mr. soto!"

Aha! The circle tightens!

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:38 (nineteen years ago) link

I am unique.

― Miss Misery (thatgirl), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:41 (nineteen years ago) link

it's funny how many people say that

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:42 (nineteen years ago) link

in terms of this thread, this board, I think so

― Miss Misery (thatgirl), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:43 (nineteen years ago) link

i'm an expatriate new york jew late-twentysomething kicking it in the southwest, and i've got all the new wave/new romantic you can shake a stick at, and i'm into xword puzzles/scrabble/literati, and i have pretty long hair (and pale skin), and wheat thins are ok and diet coke is one of my major food groups (although diet dr. pepper might just take over), and yeah, i still watch food tv when i get a chance although i find myself yelling at the screen a lot more than i used to.

― The Pinup Girls of YANK (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 3 June 2005 00:50 (nineteen years ago) link

ANYBODY ELSE HERE LIKE EATING MAC AND CHEESE????

― j blount (papa la bas), Friday, 3 June 2005 01:09 (nineteen years ago) link

oh fuck yeah

― The Pinup Girls of YANK (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 3 June 2005 01:09 (nineteen years ago) link

JBR, you wanna play in the literati tournament?

Mmm, macky cheese.

― Rock Hardy (Rock Hardy), Friday, 3 June 2005 01:10 (nineteen years ago) link

rock, i'm gonna say no because i've got a million other things to think about right now and with literati, focus is EVERYTHING.

― The Pinup Girls of YANK (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 3 June 2005 01:13 (nineteen years ago) link

Mac and cheese is great. Day-old mac and cheese is of the devil.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 3 June 2005 01:15 (nineteen years ago) link

― Rock Hardy (Rock Hardy), Friday, 3 June 2005 01:17 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't want to rile scott up any further, but there is one other thing I noticed I had in common with him - disliking Nina Simone.

― Ken L (Ken L), Friday, 3 June 2005 01:23 (nineteen years ago) link

ned raggett and i went to the same junior high school!

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Friday, 3 June 2005 01:25 (nineteen years ago) link

I love this thread. Particularly Mark's dream about spooning with Haikunym.

(do you spoon with someone, or just spoon them?)

― ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 10 September 2006 14:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Me and Jess were actually grown in the same tube

one time late at night i was playing poker on the internet with two other people and we started chatting about where we lived and two of us lived in ft greene and the other lived in pk slope. it was weird. also i was wasted, but it wasn't last night.

― jhoshea (scoopsnoodle), Sunday, 10 September 2006 15:19 (seventeen years ago) link

It's "_____ and I" people, not "Me and _____"

― señor citizen (eman), Sunday, 10 September 2006 16:18 (seventeen years ago) link

So it'd be "That Grammar Nazi Senor Citizen and I." not "Me and that Senor Citizen?"

― Nathalie (stevie nixed), Sunday, 10 September 2006 16:23 (seventeen years ago) link

No, we have nothing in common.

― señor citizen (eman), Sunday, 10 September 2006 16:24 (seventeen years ago) link

:-((((((((((((((((

― Nathalie (stevie nixed), Sunday, 10 September 2006 16:25 (seventeen years ago) link

We both like emoticons (^ . ~)

― ruddy raleigh and the rickets (Jody Beth Rosen), Sunday, 10 September 2006 16:47 (seventeen years ago) link

maybe he went into politics.

my ilx more-or-less dopplegangers, hmmm not much to go on:

edd hurt - we're the same age, he lived in my home town cincinnati (and didn't like it at all), we like a lot of the same music.

special agent gene krupa/ian 50nson is basically ME age 21 or so: insatiable consumer of all kinds of music, works in a record store, loves teh weed, eats lots of hamburgers & hefty sandwhiches.

― m coleman (lovebug starski), Sunday, 10 September 2006 18:41 (seventeen years ago) link
