FP me

for real though, N - if you're serious about getting self-banned/taking time off that, i think most people totally get that. i took the karl malone name only because i lost access to my old one. maybe you can come back and be reanderthal (if that isn't taken)

Neanderthal, I won't FP you, but if you genuinely need a break from ILX (which I 100% understand), look into Cold Turkey:

https://getcoldturkey.com

We talked about it a bit on the Internet Addiction thread:

Internet Addiction

don't let a mean girl ruffle your feathers iirc

^as a former and occasionally still active mean girl, take it from me

Oh wait you took part in that discussion lol. My memory is going the way of my attention span.

2xp

i don't see anyone having been mean tbh

this is stunningly pathetic

unless I'm totally unaware of some other incident?

flagged a post but not neanderthal

first 'almost every dinosaur' and now Neanderthal has feathers, too?

like all I can see is:

someone revives a thread that would be best left unrevived

imago, who had played a role in the original thread, complains about this on two separate threads

Neando complains about imago's complaint being on more than one thread

gyac points out that Neando is a prolific poster

I appreciate the quality of the zing and post the exchange to the zing thread

lmao, my previous complaint was about the circlejerk thread and my latest was about the songs about farting thread

Wouldnt we all maybe feel better in an hour if we didnt post about this for say an hour

both of which tbf are neanderthal-rich zones

but then where isn't

The fuck did i just say

chat twee inane drama get banged

like, I know that it often hurts to be criticized and have one's less-than-perfect posting be brought one's attention, but in the context of that "baby" thread ... where me & imago got seriously roasted ... and I didn't particularly enjoy being reminded of that experience, as I doubt imago did, which is why he posted about it ... idk. ILX will never be anyone's bff

And my jam knock in the Mitsubishi
Girls eff pee when they see me
imagos creep me in they chat twee

john chatwee is muzzle damage

Anyway this is a series of innocuous enough moments amplifying relatively needlessly into somewhat overblown drama now i love to see it but perhaps its not everybodys best look hmm?

deems otm -- we really should focus our emotions on the dismaying outlook for the future of English bands

👍👍

Is ILX drama about ILX drama peak ILX drama, y/n

Come on
FP me more I like it

But no, I will not FP you Neando, do not go, this I command

the Mother Box begins to rattle

#onethread

will echo the mailman and say <3 Neando and hope they only take some time off if they really want to do it.

MOTHER BOXES NEVER RATTLED

U R FIRED

damn, summoned a boom tube

Nean girls

I have no idea what any of this is about, but this seems to be a rough month for ILX in general. I know I've been moody as fuck lately and I imagine a lot of you have as well. Probably has something to do with seeing the end of Covid apparently within touching distance but not knowing when we'll get there. I'm trying to ease off on my internet consumption lately, and I approve of anyone giving themselves a mental health break from ILX and/or the internet if they need to. That said, Neanderthal, you're great, and I hope you don't leave for good.

can’t believe Karl is suggesting that the poster currently known as Neanderthal would ever leave ILX and return under another hastily-chosen name

no one should ever get a new name

otm

when established ilxors return under a new username

Echoing Lily Dale, I really hope Neanderthal doesn't leave. He's a good source of levity and humor around here, which is in short supply as of late. But I also know COVID overload is wreaking havoc with people's temperaments and mental health, so I can understand the need for a break.

Hey guys, been away on a long vaycay, what's been happenin up in this piece

Anyone who's upset by the mean things people say on this board should remember that there are 15 million posts on here. It all passes out the bottom of Site New Answers and gets forgotten soon enough.

Everyone is hypersensitive atm or hyperpeevish or perhaps even vacillating between those states with an occasional stopover in hypersadland or hyperblitzedville. In short, we're all varying degrees of A Mess right now so it doesn't hurt to strive for kindness. Also, PS, Neanderthal (and anyone else who needs it) is allowed to take a break but not allowed to leave. It is forbidden.

You can check out any time you like…

Neanderthal, specific user such as imago, sarahell, dmac, whoever else is involved in this clusterfun, you are good posters and I enjoy reading your posts, pls make up and be friendly, or if you need to take time away then do that but try not to be away too long.

I am you will note only acting as peacemaker in this furore i oughtta smack you in the jaw for that

sorry, dmac, consider your name expunged from the above

fp'd everyone in this thread except for neanderthal

Can we self-FP?

yes, i just did it

I agree that all these lads are good lads, what's with the beefing?

I think the beefing all started ironically enough as a result of the 'songs about beefing' thread

the fart posters should just go back to their fart threads

If he isn't yet, he better be soon or I'll...

Yeah, I miss him.

he's a good dude, i hope he's doing well.

I hope he is lurking enough to see that he is missed.

Who am I supposed to discuss Savatage with when I'm drunk on Friday nights?

I miss his random thread bumps, his reports from the world of central Florida theater, and his refusal to break the oath.

The Wolves thread is too quiet

I imagine most US ILXors are not even aware of that side of him!

Wait what, he’s a Wolves supporter?

Certainly is!

I miss our favourite caveman but if taking time off ILX is a boon for his mental health, then he's made the right call. It better not be permanent, though, or I'll…

...fart?

he should come back under all his previous usernames sequentially, until ready to evolve back into a neanderthal

That's just the F.

xp

hi.

been reading threads on occasion the last few weeks (mostly COVID ones). like Karl/Zach said above, there was a lot more going on, I was in a mental health black hole and I'm much better now after a few weeks off and with things settling down a bit in my personal life.

sorry for this ridiculous, dumb thread, when i get in fight/flight mode I do some embarrassing things :/

also yes I'm a Wolves supporter, but I missed the win the other day cos of work :(

lock thred btw

How excited would you be if Wolves signed Daryl Dike?

*gives you secret caveman elbow bump*

N u rock

How excited would you be if Wolves signed Daryl Dike?

lmao i've talked about this with my friends. I'd be in heaven

FP'd Neanderthal for coming back to this thread

:)

i did too, in solidarity

however, what i'm really flagging here is how nice is it to see you again here <3

missed the height of jc superstar season smdh

hiiiiiiii wb

Sup Neandy (I maintain that this is the correct diminutive).

H. neanderthalensisy

hi big nandy ♥️

🤘welcome back, comerade

I'm glad you're back.

And once again, there is balance on ILX.

Are you saying Neanderthal is the figurative plate-spinner of ilx?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_wqjY_okek

Yes!

they called him the neanderthal

but i called him a friend

no mas llorando por mi Neando

*Michigan J. Frog sings WB*

*reads thread* man, theres whole ILXes I have no idea are happening most of the time.

The MultiXVerse.

So glad Neanderthal is back!
