Say something nice about another ILXor

Cheers DC

For the record, I'd like to state that ilx/ilm user Toby is a prince among men. Having never interacted with him on here before, he saw a post of me and offered to send me an extra copy of a - to me - invaluable record of The Caretaker that I missed out on and didn't have a chance to get a hold of. No questions asked, nothing required in return, not even a reimbursement, 'merely' a grand act of kindness from one ILM'er to the next. This poster made my new year, it warms the heart, and it's a testament to how beautiful ilm can be (underneath all the snark etc).

If the internet is good at all it’s that it brings people together to do nice things for each other just ‘cause

so many things in ILM year-end polls that i think i hate and then BradNelson says something enthusiastic about it and then i think "ok lemme see here what this is about"

truth

A fine beacon.

Indeed he is.

Love euphoric brad <3

brad is so good at loving music, it makes me envy him!

he also listens to a lot of it

brad is so good at loving music, it makes me envy him!

I have honestly thought this at several points.

brad nelson you suck

you have to leave some love in the universe for other people to love, it's a fixed resource

in full agreement with the brad love here

xp. this is not the "facetiously criticize another ilxor with your tongue in cheek" thread. although you obviously have a talent for it that we all can admire.

I can’t fully endorse the format but j. proclaiming his agreement through feigned sarcasm doesn’t need a “well, actually”

you all suck, so hard

brad is good and they teach me about describing sound with every piece

Brad is one of the people I can trust to be a steady voice, to the point where I can read a review or post and think “hmm I am glad Brad loves this but I know it’s not for me” because of a steadfast reviewing hand

the last comments are otm, Brad is awesome

brad's a stoker, great guy

Brad is the best. Eligible to work for bolson's crew, too, which is a real feather in his cap.

brad rides a unicorn

mh otm. it's only every so often our tastes align, but I've never any doubt that what Brad is touting, it's good stuff

Brad is a top tier music-liker

BN is always great. special shoutout to keystone, essential participation in the billy joel thread <3

I think Brad has the best taste of anyone I know. Every time he recommends an album or movie it’s amazing. If you haven’t seen his Letterboxd page it is THE BEST and he is so good at writing abt movies

I regularly reference Brad’s fav movies of all time list when I’m looking for what to watch next.

Music guys are the best about movies: the B-side-is-the-bomb syndrome affects their attitude.

Brad is one of the people I can trust to be a steady voice, to the point where I can read a review or post and think “hmm I am glad Brad loves this but I know it’s not for me” because of a steadfast reviewing hand

The excellent and unspoken corollary here is that if Brad likes something I very much do not -- let us say, oh I don't know, Third Eye Blind, curse of the earth -- I can read his appreciation of them, disagree with it, but never once think his opinion about something I might not have heard yet is wrong or bad because of such a judgment. And that's sometimes a rare thing.

Also, having hosted him at a party at our place a couple of years ago, he's an excellent guest.

was waiting for the third eye blindness to show up

alfred & brad still owe me a madonna dance party
it is on my bucket list

In addition to being an artist of singular vision, Karl Malone is an entertaining videogame streamer

Wait, he's been streaming? What's his twitch name?

This will happen before 2025 or nuclear annihilation, whichever comes first.

bizarro gazarra's LOOK AT MY FUCKING CAT pics have many times rescued a day that was otherwise bereft of pleasure.
