The Daily Headliner Thread Synopsis

Hey, thanks for the idea.

February 6th


Back to Reality Mock of the Day:


Path of Discussion

 Joke fake lineups --> Several mocks with several headliners --> Brief rapper/actor reprise --> Sweetened Iced Tea --> North - South tensions come to a head --> BLAM announcement --> Some pretty crushing news  --> Various Kubler-Ross stages of grief manifest themselves--> The logistics of transatlantic flights  --> A certain poster with a certain terrible reputation delineates a 5 point explanation of his actions over the past 6 years --> People offer up varying degrees of acceptance--> Things get back on track when one person doesn't believe Elton John is a headliner. --> Everyone else tells that person how wrong she is --> The logistics of seeing Outkast elsewhere --> Things fall apart for the day due to an ice cream parlor metaphor

for sure?

For fake?

Mock of the Day:




Path of Discussion

Tom Petty suxs --> No he doesn't --> Lists --> New poster Kuhnye likes BIG LETTERS --> Playpen --> More lists --> Steve Tyler looks like hell --> Did I mention there were lists? --> Kuhnye posted a lovely photo of himself --> Troy is back --> The only one that cares Troy is back is Troy -->
Beer discussion --> Lil'B --> The Beets (whomever the fuck they are) --> Kanyesucks twitter account --> Boner doesn't understand twitter

I did not count The Wire in all those wonderful lists.
And I do have Yes for death wished upon another poster.

February 8th-9th


A Mock I Just Made

Bruce Springsteen - Kanye West - Elton John - Jack White

Path of Discussion

 Elton vs. Kanye top billing --> Bad beer discussion culminates in praise of this --> Word from someone we can probably trust that the third Headliner has not been booked yet --> Word from someone we probably can't trust that WSP are 'likely' --> A bunch of pedantic shit --> Druid does a mod thing  --> Pedanticism reigns! --> Mostly on-topic over 3rd headliner spot  --> Flanz makes a post --> Various NFL topics --> God --> Tacos --> The someone you can probably trust hints at Bruce Springsteen --> So many questions --> Fake Lineup --> Bad jokes about the fake lineup

Has a poster ever synopsed failed and then wished death upon themselves like a Sammurai who fucked up a mission? In Japan they believed the soul resided in the belly and that is why they sliced there stomachs open with the swords when they failed so show they did not have a "black belly" (dark soul) to to others if you were lucky you got a second who would then cut off your head before you screamed your way into disgrace in the the afterlife after doing such a bad ass thing. I am talking about Freud the death instinct and the wish to return to a blissful pre-birth stress free type environment it is innate and a part of human nature like all of these self destructing threads as of late. I am not sure where I am going in this I basically just wanted to delve into the "doom" part of the synopsis. And I also wanted to reaffirm the right for posters to wish such "doom" upon themselves as well as others. I am not really sure in the even of seppukku what women were trying to prove by cutting their own throats out. But I can bet you one thing I will Google it up when I get some more free time! Guys n Gals may the odds be ever in your favor the Inforoo Hunger Games continue on to Infinity (or lineup drop when the angst shifts to looking for straw men and undesirable musicians)

Incorrect.

Also, I wonder if we are going to go an entire day without somebody wishing death on someone else.

My 5 year old HP killed itself while I was making it through the thread tonight. The thread was a disaster today, and I have no intention of re-reading. Here's my cursory overview from my phone. I fucked up the table, but the Quality of Read was a 1. I want to score it a 0, but there are worse days than this ahead.


February 11th




Path of Discussion

Boner speaks the truth about pit line cutting --> An unreasonable amount of Flanzo discussion --> Suits --> Don Cherry and other hockey topics --> Unreadable drivel NOS --> Unreadable drivel of the Hot Rod quotes variety --> People name and list movies they like for 10 or so pages --> Page 600 arrives  --> Er, wait no it doesn't --> A bunch more lists --> A bunch of male attention for Monie   --> The whispers of hopeful Tool fans are crushed by the din of lists --> People name shows they've slept through --> A terrible day is capped off by textbook JBT

At first I disagreed you rated today so low. Then I thought about the topics discussed and see why it's a 1. If we have more days like today it's going to be a long week...

Also, Bc of topics spanned I was confused when you use HP to mean your computer. I was like "your 5 yo Harry Potter? What?!" I must be tired.....

Where do you stand on the Friday Vs Sunday debate Ned?
