ned if you're gonna start rejecting strokes sloppy seconds you are seriously shrinking your pond dude

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:23 (nineteen years ago) link

agreed with blount and neurotic w/r/t sheer, mindblowing hotness.

maybe she took him to Chuckie Cheese; wasn't real specific.

*considers that this means Blount hangs around the Strokes' hotels looking for girlfriends*

(Dan in rare tongue-biting moment wrt making fun of Blount)

she really likes pictures of herself, doesn't she?

― Raymond Cummings (Raymond Cummings), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:30 (nineteen years ago) link

(In retrospect it wasn't as mean as I thought it was, but it also wasn't funny; it was just some tired "Well Ned, where do you expect Blount to look for girlfriends?" bullshit. 3/10)

trolling hotelhallways for strokes spunk spitoons would barely rank in skeeviness on my 'the things we do for love' scale

Those are your favorite spittoons, then.

Last night: As I already said, last night was the Libertines show, and as I already said, it was unbelievable. I feel like I'm watching something almost historic in music culture when I see them perform

― g--ff (gcannon), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:36 (nineteen years ago) link

Any further claims of hotness have just been torpedoed.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:37 (nineteen years ago) link

ah ned i see you're unfamiliar with the 'you like tori amos? i LOVE tori amos! she's a genius!' gambit

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:38 (nineteen years ago) link

That picture > all the "bus" picks from that rancorous noise thread

― Raymond Cummings (Raymond Cummings), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:39 (nineteen years ago) link

it's like it was taken at a mork convention.

*shivers*

ah ned i see you're unfamiliar with the 'you like tori amos? i LOVE tori amos! she's a genius!' gambit

What gambit? I have nearly all of her albums. ;-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:42 (nineteen years ago) link

"nearly"?? no punani for you!

― g--ff (gcannon), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:44 (nineteen years ago) link

Uh, thanks?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:46 (nineteen years ago) link

"if only I could hide it as well as you do."

classic strokes song of the future!

― Magic City (ano ano), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:52 (nineteen years ago) link

he sort of deserves that kinda girlfriend for taking all the credit on the songs. 'all songs by j casablancas' oh *really*?!!

still love the strokes mind.

and i'm not believing those j c quotes either.

― piscesboy, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:54 (nineteen years ago) link

o man julia lennon theory to thread

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 14:57 (nineteen years ago) link

bwahahaha. i've probably had to remove this girl from the backstage area at some point.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 15:45 (nineteen years ago) link

classics.

― cºzen (Cozen), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 16:12 (nineteen years ago) link

Wow, this chick's CD collection is almost a perfect subset of mine, except for the huge run of John Mayer stuff, and the Strokes completism. That is DEEPLY disturbing, embarrassing, etc. However, the opportunities for Tori Amos-style gambits are virtually unlimited should I run into her.

― southern lights (southern lights), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 16:20 (nineteen years ago) link

Not enough metal.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 16:31 (nineteen years ago) link

this thread revive has made me laugh so hard my coworker is worried about me.

― amateur!!st, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 16:40 (nineteen years ago) link

p.s. yanc3y how did you find that?

― amateur!!st, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 16:46 (nineteen years ago) link

he's the jimmy nichol of the strokes

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 16:53 (nineteen years ago) link

just imagine if blogs had existed during the heyday of the rolling stones et al...

― amateur!!st, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 16:56 (nineteen years ago) link

she is my favorite girl ever

― kyle (akmonday), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 16:59 (nineteen years ago) link

it's me, amateurist!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:01 (nineteen years ago) link

Wait, YOU'RE the blog author?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:03 (nineteen years ago) link

o man can you hook me up with that chick? (and dude do you really own all those travis cd's? wtf?)

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:04 (nineteen years ago) link

It's sort of sweet to think of big rock stars getting with girls who own that many soundtracks and Police albums.

― nabisco (nabisco), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:06 (nineteen years ago) link

can someone cut and paste more of the diary?

― kephm, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:06 (nineteen years ago) link

Cool is dead! It's all about oral sex techniques now!

― nabisco (nabisco), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:06 (nineteen years ago) link

she owns every police album cept zenyatta mondatta right?

― cinniblount (James Blount), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:07 (nineteen years ago) link

the travis cds were a joke but the john mayer singles are ALL MINE

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:08 (nineteen years ago) link

what i find fascinating by it is how even though the thing reads as pretty depressing to all of us, she clearly think it's glamorous. she's seeing herself through the lens of almost famous while it's all happening!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:09 (nineteen years ago) link

Oh c'mon, it's totally glamorous. She'll look back on this fondly for a lifetime. Maybe in thirty years Kate Hudson will interview her for her role in the new mother-daughter remake of The Banger Sisters.

― nabisco (nabisco), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:11 (nineteen years ago) link

Nice boob job!

― kickitcricket (kickitcricket), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:12 (nineteen years ago) link

It's sort of sweet... um, she's really hot?

― g--ff (gcannon), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:12 (nineteen years ago) link

i saw julian in circuit city buying some xbox games a couple of weeks ago. he's not looking so fabulous these days.

(room on fire still sounds fantastic to me, btw)

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:12 (nineteen years ago) link

too many pringles

― kephm, Wednesday, 25 August 2004 17:13 (nineteen years ago) link

haha - "these days"

seriously - to matt groening, cameron crowe, gilbert gottfried or whoever the fuck is editing the 'best music writing of 2004' anthology this paragraph:
Here's a low point though, because I never talk about the low points. I woke up hungover Sunday morning with no memory of Saturday night past 11 (what/who I did), and then I came close to screaming and crying because I thought I was in the room alone. It took me a full five minutes or so to realize that Julian was just in the shower and not in another bed somewhere with another girl(s). Took me only about 5 seconds after that to realize I was about to be sick, so I stumbled to the bathroom and managed to get to the toilet and threw up until I was puking bile. Jules standing there in the shower looking down at me and looking dead said "if only I could hide it as well as you do." Then for different reasons I came close to a breakdown and suddenly hated him more than I'd ever hated anything, but he said head up, baby, this shit isn't new to you anymore, you never do anything you don't intend to. So I got over it, as one does, then a smile and a kiss and a fuck and a song and back to normal.

is easily the best thing i've read on the strokes and if that fucking ilx thread on the strokes can make the cut (nevermind the usual awful 60% of whatever makes the cut) then this is a must.
