you royalist lickspittle. you're also the only fucking ILX0r who WORE A SUIT - probably for the only time in your entire life! - when the fucking queen and her cumshot husband came to visit us at work (many years ago now).

that big fuzzy blur in the bottom right of this picture is stet's head. LOOK AT THAT SHIRT. HE'S WEARING A CRISP WHITE SHIRT. i, on the other hand, am swearing and ignoring HRH fucking dicksplash.

christ's teeth, i look young there.

― grimly fiendish, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 17:13 (seventeen years ago) link

of course: this might also make me - although i hope not - the only ILX0r to ignore a member of the royal family standing behind his desk, and pointedly refuse to acknowledge his presence in any way, shape or form.

please, someone, prove me wrong.

...had multiple conversations with a drunken liam neeson over the telephone

Hahaha! Classic, Grimly. ORF WITH YOUR HEAD!

― Dr.C, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 17:16 (seventeen years ago) link

...received a note from the Queen Mum, because we (used to) share a birthday.
I'm younger, 'though.
And alive.

― aimurchie, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 17:23 (seventeen years ago) link

what did it say? "dear aimurchie. i demarnd you relinquish the rights to your birthday and give me all your worldly goods and chattels because I AM THE QUEEN FUCKING MOTHER"?

if not, the old bat was obviously mellowing in her old age.

I AM THE ONLY ILXOR WHO DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT NU-ILX NOT WORKING LIKE OLD ILX

― blueski, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 18:03 (seventeen years ago) link

No you're not, just not everyone feels the need to constantly carp about it.

― Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 18:05 (seventeen years ago) link

you're actually being just as big of a dick as jon.

...uninvited slugs on her bedroom wall.

― Gaia1981, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 18:13 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah but i do it on purpose scheffy

― blueski, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 18:16 (seventeen years ago) link

Wow, Grimly still bitter about being passed over in the New Years Honors list, eh, Lord Stettington?

― accentmonkey, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 18:24 (seventeen years ago) link

grimly, it said "Happy Birthday"....well, it said "The Queen Mother is especially pleased to receive your note about our birthdays, and would like to wish..."
The crazy thing is, I didn't write to the Queen Mother. My father did, on some drunken lark, presumably.
If she HAD made any demands of worldly goods and chattels it would have been hilarious because:
I was 11 years old and -
I live in America.
I still have the note.
it's really a form letter signed by the Queen Mother.
But it's mine, damn it!

― aimurchie, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 18:58 (seventeen years ago) link

I think blueski has complained about me complaining almost as much as I've complained!

I'm still the only ILXor who has a neighbor who was eaten by a python.
(he lived - it was only his left arm, and the arm is still attached. But it was drastic at the time.)

― aimurchie, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 19:08 (seventeen years ago) link

...spent the last days actively thinking about this question, but is still stumped.

― jel --, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 19:09 (seventeen years ago) link

. . watched the crime scene unit remove a body bag, complete with bloody foot dangling, from the apartment across from me.

― Ms Misery, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 19:28 (seventeen years ago) link

... had a party full of Canadian diplomats get disrupted by my prostitute neighbor stabbing her pimp, after we all watched him climb up the porch to her apartment (and called the police).

That t shirt looks ironed... just check the sleeves.

― kv_nol, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 20:10 (seventeen years ago) link

That t shirt looks ironed... just check the sleeves.

it does, doesn't it? can't have been, though: at that time i was living in a hovel and didn't even own an iron.

it was probably the combined effect of the damp in my flat and the lack of ventilation; there must have been some kind of unintentional heat-pressing effect as it lay in a heap on my bedroom floor.

god. that flat. boak.

At the risk of making me sound like a complete twunt here's some :

The only ILXer who has been...

...on the Old Grey Whistle Test
...touched lightly on the hand by Kiera Knightley
...to Phoenix Arizona from London for a 3 hour meeting. Touched down at 2pm, got on the plane back at 8pm the same day.
...to the BAFTAs

― Dr.C, Thursday, 15 March 2007 08:22 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm probably the only ILXor who has had dinner with Dudley Moore, Patrick Lichfield, and Tiff Needell (not at the same time) and spent a week staying in a French chateau with photographer David Bailey.

Any proof? The picture is pretty damning...

― kv_nol, Thursday, 15 March 2007 09:07 (seventeen years ago) link

Ok, this is definitely going to rule this thread.
I am the only ILXor who witnessed the president of Mexico's daughters being spirited away from an American boarding school because Mexico gave the Shah of Iran asylum.
1980, I think.
It was very weird.
or maybe it was a former president of Mexico... anyway. the CIA came in to the dorm and literally carried them away.
Because their lives were in danger once the asylum had been granted, so they were, I suppose, flown directly to Mexico.
I don't remember their names.
I remember being woken up to allow the "spiriting away" of the girls, and being impressed with the efficiency that the agents had with packing. It was all over in minutes.

I'm the only ILXor who has been giving a spanking by Manuel Moriega on five consecutive occasions

― latebloomer, Thursday, 15 March 2007 09:14 (seventeen years ago) link

yes the tense of giving was intentional. for a brief time he was my voodoo man-puppet.

― latebloomer, Thursday, 15 March 2007 09:15 (seventeen years ago) link

... had a hole between his two front teeth made by surgery.

― Jibe, Thursday, 15 March 2007 10:12 (seventeen years ago) link

**I'm probably the only ILXor who has had dinner with Dudley Moore, Patrick Lichfield, and Tiff Needell (not at the same time)**

Goodness!

Why did I read that as Patrick Moore? He'd be fun though.

― Dr.C, Thursday, 15 March 2007 11:01 (seventeen years ago) link

I'd love to dance with Patrick Moore! To the music of the spheres!

― Masonic Boom, Thursday, 15 March 2007 11:07 (seventeen years ago) link

Isn't Patrick Moore a Nazi?

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 15 March 2007 11:08 (seventeen years ago) link

Well... he dropped a lot of bombs on Germany during the war it seems.

― Dr.C, Thursday, 15 March 2007 13:08 (seventeen years ago) link
