s trife. Knock off the shit.
Your baseless and snide accusations of greed and racism are rude, insulting and tiresome.
Just because Geir and Calum are not currently blighting this forum does NOT mean that there's a "Troll Vaccuum" that needs to be filled. I myself prefer it when the niche of UberTroll to be left vacant.

Just remember that you DON'T ACTUALLY KNOW *JACK SHIT* about the other posters on this forum. So you don't have ~~enough~~ any evidence to back up your accusations of Ku Kluxerism.

im as much a fuckin devils advocate as geir was, i guess if you dont believe in the ilm party line you must be trolling!!!

― trife (simon_tr), Tuesday, 10 June 2003 01:35 (twenty-two years ago)

but jess whenever trife starts flinging accusations around the depths of ilx id call forth exactly the strawman he's been attacking.

Like I wanna know what Dee thinks is black ppl. with "good taste" & if it involves eating watermelon or playing them blues.

trife: running into a chatroom and accusing everyone in it of being a bigot is mean, tracherous and wrong. ESPECIALLY if it isn't true.
(and don't give me any "yer in denial" horseshit, either.)

― Lord Custos Epsilon (Lord Custos Epsilon), Tuesday, 10 June 2003 01:41 (twenty-two years ago)

you mean its still sorta wrong if it IS true?

No, it's COMPLETELY wrong if it ISN'T true.

And it's still rude to accuse every single person on the forum of bigotry even if its only ONE chicklet lobed morlock with pretentions of Nazihood who happens to be mouthing off at any given moment.

thats funny comin from the custos who thinks black people who wear suits are uncle toms and is always going on about cibo matto being 'naughty oriental hotties' on some sucky fucky me love you long time bullshit

― jess (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 10 June 2003 01:55 (twenty-two years ago)

I've just went a searching across ILM and the only instance of anyone talking about "oriental hotties" is when a troll called "xx" started mouthing off about my (platonic) love of Shonen Knife and their music.
It was xx who made the racist/sexist comment about oriental women.
(xx was another one who loved to make accusations based on nothing but the paranoid delusions within his fevered brane.)

...as for the "uncle tom" comment, I'm doing another search right now.

thats funny comin from the custos who thinks black people who wear suits are uncle toms...
no, the funny thing is: this sentence is the only sentense on the entire forum where the phrase "uncle tom" is in the same sentence as "custos"; so, trife, you are hallucinating *again*.

trife -7 more wisdom.

― Lord Custos Epsilon (Lord Custos Epsilon), Tuesday, 10 June 2003 02:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh thanks Ned, yeah I had pretty much given up on that thread after the Avril comments.

It's funny when you see threads repeatedly rise to the top of 'New Answers', the natural assumptions is that it is more of the same old idiocy playing out over and over. I guess I need to learn to click on 'em once and a while. The punch thread is kind of funny how the minute Julio shows up, Ronan chimes in with an attack on him. Good old ILM.

custos you mentioned those 'orientals' appropos of nothing in that suchin pak thread!! custos is the guy who meets someone and says 'hey i see youre black!! you know whos black, my car mechanic, do you know him'

― trife (simon_tr), Tuesday, 10 June 2003 02:15 (twenty-two years ago)

No, but seriously....
weird but true story:
I was once in a Denny's talking with some co-workers, and I mentioned that a friend of mine was taking classes to improve her English. She's an Indian, I said. And some complete stranger behind us clucked her tongue and said "you can't call her that. You have to say 'Native American. It's racist to call her an Indian."
And I turned around and said "Her name is Priya Jayanchandra and she's from India. People from India prefer to be called Indians."

i never thought i'd say it but the nogoodniks rule this school

― jess (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 11 June 2003 20:43 (twenty-two years ago)

So basically your stance is that now, after pissing off a great deal of people, you say that discourse ahould have no rules, and that sometimes people just get hurt in the process of healthy conversation and sharing of ideas? That any rules imposed on discourse are pointless and stifling? That you don't have to respect others because you believe something else besides what they do?

Well I believe that racial, ethnic and homophobic slurs are perfectly harmless words that should be printed in the largest typeface possible. (thinks about it) (leaves it at that)

But Sterl, ILx is in no way like that college town, unless you want to go for total rhetorical overkill and say that whole classes of people are getting *their* self-esteem smashed here.

ILx might be like that college town after Richard Meltzer arrived...and left, leaving everyone to pick up the pieces and get on with their lives.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Wednesday, 11 June 2003 21:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Another way of saying this might be to point out it's not 1969 anymore.

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Wednesday, 11 June 2003 21:28 (twenty-two years ago)

I've been posting here at ILM for about a year now, and for a huge chunk of that time, we talked about music. But in the last month or so, I've seen like a hundred anti-troll, trolls. In fact, I very rarely see troll posts, usually just tons of "HEY (insert guy no one likes) KNOCK IT OFF!!" posts. Do the people who post these things think they are doing the board some sort of service?

sterling clover knows about critical theorists and likes pop music and i don't know if he likes indie rock. i don't know much about him. i read his website before but it's very, very hard to understand and i checked it again a few times and he hadn't updated it.

i would give him: 8/10.

s trife is, i think, from athens, georgia, where r.e.m. is from and everyone likes indie rock and he likes the linkin park remix album and he bought a bee shirt like an indie rocker would wear and he reviewed an eminem cd for pitchforkmedia, an indie rocker website. he once told me that rap-rock sincerity was the new faux-naif. he e-mailed me once and asked if i had AIM and he told me to get it. but i don't know what the whole thing was all about. i thought it was cool that he e-mailed me but we never talked after that.

i would give him: 9/10.

jess is from the east coast, i think, and wrote about dj sammy in the village voice, which is a magazine or a newspaper in new york city, and he has a girlfriend named nancy. he didn't like indie rock for a while but then he started to like it again. he thought 'satisfaction' was the best hip-hop single of the year. he's always saying how bad ilm is. i don't know how to react to that.

i would give him: 6/10.
