Hey, I know about that thread they turned into a book. Just that this isn't a thread, it's a collection of the finest humour t'internet has to offer (well, some might say). Maybe not a book either, a pamphlet maybe, or perhaps a printed bog-roll?

i feel very, very sorry for anybody who thinks excelsior threads are a collection of "the finest humor t'internet has to offer."

take the high road all you want, doesn't change the fact that you got SONNED in a making excelsior threads unfunny beef. :DDD xpost.

Jessie the Monster (scarymonster), Friday, 22 December 2006 00:00 (seventeen years ago) link

i mean, jesus, what type of person would think that? i guess somebody who thinks a misspelling of "lyricist" is so funny that he makes it his new internet handle, despite nobody else offering any indication that it was the least bit humorous.

ts: t'internet vs. tit-internet

Jessie the Monster (scarymonster), Friday, 22 December 2006 00:01 (seventeen years ago) link

xposts: fair enough, Mom!

oh, and Mickey, not every internet handle has to be 'humourous'. If I think something has a pleasant ring to it, I'll adopt it. Meanwhile, you seem to have taken this as an opportunity to fire home another overlong, unfunny, misdirected zing. I despair. Perhaps my 'finest humour' claim was the teensiest bit sarcastic, Mickey? Certainly I could believe you missing that aspect.

I can imagine a lot of rappers saying a lot of Joanna Newsom's lines verbatim:
E-40: Should we break some bread/Are y'interested

Snoop: And even when you touch my face/You know your place

David Banner: And all day long we talk about mercy/Lead me to water, lord, I sure am thirsty

DMX: This is an old song/These are old blues/And this is not my tune/But it's mine to use

Aesop Rock: (Pretty much anything else)

funniest moment of 2006:

the amount of money i've spent on obscure boredoms side projects over the years is truly ridiculous. i was a mad collector at one point. i bet if we added the amount of money we've collectively spent on boredoms japanese imports over the years we could buy a small car.

In 2007 I promise to wage war on misuse of the word 'random'. Unless you were swinging through a room blindfolded with the aim of catching your penis on the first vagina it comes into contact with, it's not really random sex is it?

(You weren't doing that were you? That's disgusting).

The daily I used to work for still has the same movie critic who's been there for decades. He once told me the story of how, in 1966, as an all-round "entertainment writer," he interviewed JB. Who was under the hair dryer. He kept shouting, "I can't hear ya, man! Just tell the kids James Brown said 'Stay in school!'"

One of the main problems with this concept is that conservative shows have been using actual Colbert-style tactics for years and years, which is part of where the satire shows got their ideas in the first place -- finding bumbling, comical extremists and setting them up for pseudo-serious interviews is a pretty classic conservative sensationalist move. (It's not so long ago that when O'Reilly was tackling, say, a black issue, he'd welcome some normal Republican congressperson and then be all like "to see how the mainstream black community feels about this, we turn to Rasheed-Ali 'Pookie' Akbar of the Greater Baltimore Kill Whitie Liberation Front.")
