The obvious answers for me would be John Justen, Fluffy Bear, Sara R-C, naturallaw-dp and subgenius, seeing as they were all either a) in my elementary school/middle school/high school posse, or b) my older brother.

your brother posts to ilx now???

i'm not sure which is more surreal - the photo or the story itself. clearly this mountain-hill is where WORLD FAP will take place.

He posted to ILM for a while, Jess! Scan the hip-hop threads for one-liners from naturalaw-dp; that's him.

that was great, when we met tuomas by chance. meeting pete in paris by chance was great too. I wonder if in the next european city we visit we will run into geir hongro.
it looked like a mountain to me.

I went up Montjuic when I was in Barcelona a month ago. Didn't see any ilxors though. It's definitely a hill. It also has escalators going up it, but not all the way up.

I think it's a mountain or a hill

xpost to Dan - I didn't know your brother posted to ILX either!
And yeah, to answer the question, it would have to be Fluffy Bear, Dan, and John for being Bad Influences in my Formative Years. ;)

Ah hell, I am pretty sure that I will not run into any ILXors next week in Paris.

It is now me. For all of you. Hello. I predict your hostility and welcome it with stinky ballsack.
― dean ge, Saturday, 30 June 2007 03:24 (seventeen years ago) link
^ I predict your hostility
yeah, for good reason.
My favorite part, so far, is about 24 minutes in, when the narrator says,
"At Luke 22:10 when Jesus is asked by his disciples where the next passover will be when he is gone, Jesus replies,
'Behold, when ye entered into the city, there shall a man meet you bearing a pitcher of water...follow him into the house where he entereth in'
This scripture is by far one of the most revealing of all astrological references. The man bearing the pitcher of water is Aquarius, the water bearer, who is always pictured as a man pouring out a pitcher of water. He represents the age after Pisces, and when the son, God's son, leaves the age of Pisces, Jesus, it will enter the age of Aquarius, as Aquarius follows Pisces in the Precession of the Equinoxes. All Jesus is saying is that after the Age of Pisces will come the Age of Aquarius. Now, we have all heard about the end times and the end of the world..."
and so on.
Capital R Retarded.

I don't know what my plans were, really. I watched the first 25 minutes and then skipped around to see where it was trying to go. Who knows why I waste my time on things like that. It's kind of like watching the 700 Club just to get outraged.

I would say "The whole of ILX"
Its big enough so that if I post something I feel like saying, there's enough people around to see it and react to it, but not too many as could misinterpret it and go global with something I didn't men.
― Mark G, Friday, 6 October 2017 06:51 (six years ago) link
I didn't mean!
Tsk.
the qualx pasta thread taught me to fink about the rolling boil/still boil false dichotomy, or something. Who knows, I probably still do it wrong.
