Because we don't have enough meta threads.

This Saturday and Sunday marked ILX's first official Girls' Weekend Out (Rageously) (aka GWOR). We spent the entire weekend getting drunk, going shopping, and TALKING ABOUT CUTE BOYS. Don't you wish you were us?

Regionalist.

― j.lu (j.lu), Monday, 3 February 2003 04:49 (twenty-three years ago)

not at all. the way you typed it makes it sound like you had fun, though. I wish you all the best.

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 3 February 2003 04:50 (twenty-three years ago)

Okay, I am speaking from envy, I do wish I were one of you and I'm sorry that I posted that first thing so quickly.

― j.lu (j.lu), Monday, 3 February 2003 04:50 (twenty-three years ago)

I have no regrets.

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 3 February 2003 04:51 (twenty-three years ago)

what did you drink what did you buy and who were the boys???

― minna (minna), Monday, 3 February 2003 04:51 (twenty-three years ago)

We went to Delias; we bought cute super cheap clothes. Buy one get two free policy. I bought argyle socks (hello Geeta!).

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 04:56 (twenty-three years ago)

WHO WERE THE BOYS? DID YOU TRY TO "IM" THEM?

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 3 February 2003 04:58 (twenty-three years ago)

Is GWOR anything like GWAR?

― Amateurist (amateurist), Monday, 3 February 2003 04:58 (twenty-three years ago)

WHO WERE THE BOYS? DID YOU TRY TO "IM" THEM?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 3 February 2003 04:59 (twenty-three years ago)

Shit -- busted! They were using my cell phone as an AIM weapon!

― Jen (nstop), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I do wish i were you nycilxchixors.

― That Girl (thatgirl), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:01 (twenty-three years ago)

I have nothing but respect and envy for the nycilxchixors.

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:04 (twenty-three years ago)

But Nick don't you ever sleep?

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:08 (twenty-three years ago)

i just saw you went to delias. I used to work there but there was only one retail place out in jersey. is there one in nyc now?

― That Girl (thatgirl), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:09 (twenty-three years ago)

No Mary - I am living my life on E.S.T. in an attempt at ingratiating myself to the nycilxchixors.

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:13 (twenty-three years ago)

Don't you wish you were us?

(do not answer if you hate me us)

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:17 (twenty-three years ago)

We went to Woodbury Common. We also wanted to go to Mistui Mart (Japanese shopping) but, duh!, it's Bergen Country, not open on Sundays!!! We perved on a young policeman. He told us to "pull over" (swoon). He had an accent like Elvis.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:17 (twenty-three years ago)

JBR on Jersey boys: "They're soooo... working-class! And earnest! And they all love Springsteen so much! It's cute!

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:23 (twenty-three years ago)

It was a very cross-cultural day. We ended up in Crown Heights getting lost after dropping JBR off.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:25 (twenty-three years ago)

A sort of indie "Sex and the City" huh?

― gazza, Monday, 3 February 2003 05:27 (twenty-three years ago)

(JBR was perving on the Jersey boys crossing the street near Mr. Policeman.)

And then there were the pervs Mary, Felicity and I witnessed mistaking the parking lot in commerical district of DUMBO for some kind of Lovers Lane.

― Jen (nstop), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:28 (twenty-three years ago)

How does one pronounce 'nycilxchixors' and please don't say 'en-why-see-eye-el-ex-chix-ors' because it's not nearly as sexy as the other possiblities

― Millar (Millar), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:29 (twenty-three years ago)

nice ill x chiXors.

― rainy (rainy), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:30 (twenty-three years ago)

Nih-sill-ix-chixors.

Kinda like Mxyzptlik (sic, I think, as if you can tell), but with better hats.

It'd be better as "NYCILXORCHIX", though. Nih-sill-ix-or-chix. Sassy.

― David R. (popshots75`), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:37 (twenty-three years ago)

NYLCHIXOR? (NIGH - EL - CHICK - SORE?)

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:39 (twenty-three years ago)

Now someone just needs to write a tune that starts with somebody yelling THIS ONE'S FOR THA NYCILXCHIXORS through a fat hall reverb

I like rainy's take

― Millar (Millar), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:47 (twenty-three years ago)

There was some freaky shit going down in the car parked by the Brooklyn Ice Cream in DUMBO. Nice view though.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 05:48 (twenty-three years ago)

You could just say 'cool people' or something.

Neiman Marcus:

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 3 February 2003 06:38 (twenty-three years ago)

delias* rox o'er PDQ Bach

that should be "Bach's" of course

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Monday, 3 February 2003 06:43 (twenty-three years ago)

so thats what that was all about! ok...

did you get me a tie?

― gareth (gareth), Monday, 3 February 2003 07:24 (twenty-three years ago)

I looked at one for you at Dior but Mary said it wouldn't do.

― felicity (felicity), Monday, 3 February 2003 07:42 (twenty-three years ago)

what was the kissy faces thing all about?

― gareth (gareth), Monday, 3 February 2003 07:46 (twenty-three years ago)

was it a brown tie?

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 3 February 2003 07:46 (twenty-three years ago)

gunmetal

― felicity (felicity), Monday, 3 February 2003 07:48 (twenty-three years ago)

yes, i do wish i was there. what a great idea!

― di smith (lucylurex), Monday, 3 February 2003 08:30 (twenty-three years ago)

I wish I was there, too.

― rainy (rainy), Monday, 3 February 2003 08:49 (twenty-three years ago)

so do I! Rainy, welcome back.

― felicity (felicity), Monday, 3 February 2003 09:04 (twenty-three years ago)

i have decided a red tie is best, with a black shirt.

― gareth (gareth), Monday, 3 February 2003 09:27 (twenty-three years ago)

Gareth, the Kraftwerk tribute group auditions aren't until NEXT week, you've plenty of time.

― suzy (suzy), Monday, 3 February 2003 11:19 (twenty-three years ago)

thanks felicity-kitten!

― rainy (rainy), Monday, 3 February 2003 11:21 (twenty-three years ago)

HAHAHA suzy you roXoR

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 3 February 2003 11:32 (twenty-three years ago)

Over heard in bar on Wednesday:

Bloke: "Oh Kraftwerk, they're this really obscure German group with no melodies."
Girl: *giggles* Reeeaaally?
We gaped in horror.

Sounds like a great day out. I am jealous.

― Anna (Anna), Monday, 3 February 2003 11:48 (twenty-three years ago)

surely thats red shirts with black ties. i want to look like a lipstickandcigarettes girl.

zoe called me a tosser yesterday!

― gareth (gareth), Monday, 3 February 2003 11:52 (twenty-three years ago)

anna, wednesday? was that the bar we were in? i didnt hear that!

― gareth (gareth), Monday, 3 February 2003 11:53 (twenty-three years ago)

Why the FUCK isn't this a picture thread? I demand a nude photoshoot IMMEDIATELY.

― Andrew (enneff), Monday, 3 February 2003 11:54 (twenty-three years ago)

Anna, all the worse if that conversational snippet happened at a gathering bar for hordes on way to Nag X3.

― suzy (suzy), Monday, 3 February 2003 11:57 (twenty-three years ago)

It was before you got there Gareth.

but i need black shirt with red tie, not the other way round:(

― gareth (gareth), Monday, 3 February 2003 12:00 (twenty-three years ago)

A black shirt?

HAHA

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 February 2003 14:28 (twenty-three years ago)

We looked at, um, brown ties at Off 5th.

I bought a hippie dress, a short sleeve black dress, starry pajamas, a black lace skirt (just like Jen!), a Paul Frank t shirt, a black velvet top with sheer sleeves. a pink wool cardigan, and a wool gray and pink plaid skirt (in a size six???) all for $39!!

We went to Boonton, oops.

I decided that I am going to be mean this month.

― rosemary (rosemary), Monday, 3 February 2003 14:34 (twenty-three years ago)

soooo jealous. compounded by fact that I need to save my vacation days and so won't be able to make trip to NYC this year. nycchix0rs should all get matching plaid skirts, I think.

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 3 February 2003 15:22 (twenty-three years ago)

Nobody wanted to go to the Crate and Barrel outlet with me.

― rosemary (rosemary), Monday, 3 February 2003 15:35 (twenty-three years ago)

Jen let me pick the kissy face -- we searched high and wide for a tie for you -- I found a nice thin shiny brown CK one that RM said had too many pink tones in it -- and another Hugo Boss very '70s brown and light brown diagonal stripes -- to wear the latter you should grow a mustache and hang out in rooms with faux wood panneling, but RM didn't give that one the OK either.

I don't know what this black shirt red tie mentalism is that you speak of and I hereby wash my hands of the Gareth-tie pursuit.

I'm wearing my new light blue cabled turtle neck sweater hat I got for $14 and matching light blue argyle socks -- I feel so twee!

RM's knee length plaid skirt is hott. It's gonna look so nice with her new pink cardigan -- I'm thinking very '50s.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:41 (twenty-three years ago)

There is too much love here.

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:49 (twenty-three years ago)

it is time to shop for hate

― lawrence kansas (lawrence kansas), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:51 (twenty-three years ago)

Addendum: We got lost in South Williamsburg, ground zero for Hasidic electro-clash scene, not Crown Heights.

Gareth: We will take you and your black shirt with red tie there when you visit.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:56 (twenty-three years ago)

Mitsuwa was CLOSED? They even run a shuttle there on Sundays. You can buy booze there on Sundays! I think that's a bad sign. I hope they aren't going to close down like Yaohan did.

― Paul Eater (eater), Monday, 3 February 2003 18:04 (twenty-three years ago)

Apparently the supermarket was open but not the store parts where you could buy san-x stationary. RM: If it was open i will cry.

RM: "But it's Bergen County!"

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 18:45 (twenty-three years ago)

GWAR are good, but I prefer Lawnmower Deth.

Did you buy any comics?

― jel -- (jel), Monday, 3 February 2003 18:49 (twenty-three years ago)

No, of course not; we are girls!!

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 19:11 (twenty-three years ago)

B-but - Bunty!

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 3 February 2003 19:12 (twenty-three years ago)

http://www.26pigs.com/bunty/4.jpg

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Monday, 3 February 2003 19:24 (twenty-three years ago)

Is there some antiquated blue law controlling the sale of San-X goods and collectibles in Bergen County?

― Paul Eater (eater), Monday, 3 February 2003 19:30 (twenty-three years ago)

All we know is that as we rolled through the streets of Leonia, Palisades, Edgewater and other north Jersey towns in search of a highway, every such store we spotted was CLOSED. Even "Gen X World." For shame.

― Jen (nstop), Monday, 3 February 2003 19:50 (twenty-three years ago)

It's like the Footloose town over there, or London, ha ha, sorry Londoners, just kidding.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 20:22 (twenty-three years ago)

Guess which Strokes song came on the mixtape I was playing while I read this thread?

I wish I were one of you. You are some of my favourite people on ILX.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Monday, 3 February 2003 20:36 (twenty-three years ago)

The love is just gushing and spewing and splattering everywhere!

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 3 February 2003 20:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Awww just in time for Valentine's Day. Do you feel the luv, Nabisco? We were rockin' out to Promqueen in the car :) The ILX comp was the best thing we played all day. (Beating out Too Many DJs and Shania, to name just a few.)

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 20:42 (twenty-three years ago)

What to do with all these industrial-strength sponges soaked through with love?

― Amateurist (amateurist), Monday, 3 February 2003 20:47 (twenty-three years ago)

Make love squeezings.

(Why did I type that?)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 3 February 2003 20:48 (twenty-three years ago)

Haha fabaceous!

― starry (Groke), Monday, 3 February 2003 20:49 (twenty-three years ago)

Mary, I thought I LIKED the Hugo Boss stripey brown ties

My Mitsuwa flyer says : "Clothing and Home Appliances Closed Sunday". We could have gotten some Smelt Fish and ramen though. Bergen County = Stupid Blue Laws.

(I saw parts 1,3,4 & 5 of 2 Many DJs/Radio Soulwax today. I want I want I want)

― rosemary (rosemary), Monday, 3 February 2003 21:03 (twenty-three years ago)

I felt the love coming, Mary, but I hopped out of the way just in time. Rocking to the Promqueen: did Felicity tell you she picked that song out for me? I played her two choices and she said "use that one, ILX will love it. Have you ever heard All Seeing I? Go ask that bartender what his problem was with my tip."

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 3 February 2003 21:07 (twenty-three years ago)

Mary, I thought I LIKED the Hugo Boss stripey brown ties.

Uh-oh sorry Gareth I wasn't feeling the luv from RM, and you have missed your chance to dress like a 70s man :(

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 21:17 (twenty-three years ago)

"use that one, ILX will love it. Have you ever heard All Seeing I? Go ask that bartender what his problem was with my tip."

HAHAHAHAHA, excellent imitation. I love you nabisco and I am coming to a suburb near you soon.

― felicity (felicity), Monday, 3 February 2003 21:23 (twenty-three years ago)

"Caaaaaan you feeeeeeel the luuuuuuuv tooooooniiiight...."

(Smelt fish?)

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 3 February 2003 21:34 (twenty-three years ago)

Uh-oh sorry Gareth I wasn't feeling the luv from RM, and you have missed your chance to dress like a 70s man :(

And Mary nixed my tie choice. It's all such a crazy merry-go-round. gareth's lust for neckwear will destroy us all, mark my words.

― felicity (felicity), Monday, 3 February 2003 21:38 (twenty-three years ago)

Well, I propose another Mitsuwa jaunt on another day, if you are willing to invite boys.

― Paul Eater (eater), Monday, 3 February 2003 21:49 (twenty-three years ago)

Good Lord, this tie thing has gotten out of hand. Gareth, pick one of these ties and I will send it to you:

"A beautiful bright red, in the new, narrower 3" width."

"A nice assertive burgundy."

"Classic black tie with bright red tape stripe."

"Turquoise Foulard."

"Classic repp stripe in navy with red stripe and white accents."

"Classic repp stripe in non-classic colors of coral with a light yellow stripe and turquoise accents."

"A shield that looks a little like Harvard or Yale." (Brat-pack look.)

"Pin paisley foulard."

"Skinny tie in solid black."

"Narrow red with daisies."

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 3 February 2003 21:55 (twenty-three years ago)

if you are willing to invite boys.

Willing? We demand it! Boys ride free.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:01 (twenty-three years ago)

Okay, I don't know how the turquoise foulard got in there, it would look horrible on Gareth. So would the pink, now that I think about it. Personally I like the coral repp and the #1 bright red, but I think Gareth might work best in the black w/ red stripe.

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:02 (twenty-three years ago)

That one tie looks like the bastard child of the Harvard and Yale emblems.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:04 (twenty-three years ago)

It is, Dan! It looks like something the guy from My Favorite would wear.

Please also see:

Ultra skinny ties, in black, maroon, red, and white.

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:06 (twenty-three years ago)

For the ultra-skinnies I recommend the light red, though actually maybe with a rough beige shirt.

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:07 (twenty-three years ago)

that's perfect.

― Ed (dali), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:10 (twenty-three years ago)

Ok Paul let's do the Mitsuwa thing soon. Such a pretty view of Morningside Heights from there.

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:12 (twenty-three years ago)

you're very sartorial today nitsuh

― Ed (dali), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:13 (twenty-three years ago)

Every day!

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:13 (twenty-three years ago)

HEAVEN REPRESENTED AS A TIE

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:17 (twenty-three years ago)

Such a pretty view of Morningside Heights from there.

And vice versa!

Okay, soon.

― Paul Eater (eater), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:17 (twenty-three years ago)

I like nabisco's idea for the ultra-skinny too. More the rough beige shirt than the bra colour.

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:19 (twenty-three years ago)

Wait! I thought I was on the bra thread.

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:19 (twenty-three years ago)

N., you couldn't even fill a bra with your buttocks.

― Ed (dali), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:23 (twenty-three years ago)

No, I thought he meant for ultra-skinny women.

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:25 (twenty-three years ago)

If we go to Mitsuwa, we should go to Target (and uh, the Rag Shop) too. Hello Kitty Valentines, here we come!

― rosemary (rosemary), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:28 (twenty-three years ago)

BTW, surely no one is surprised at the love on this thread? My guess is that young, clever, interesting, hot New York women who are into indie music and the internet wouldn't find it hard to find admirers on an internet message board dominated (if only numerically) by men.

Or of course, with as terrific a bunch as this, anywhere else.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:36 (twenty-three years ago)

oooer

i'd be psyched for mitsuwa if there is a posse going and conversation is not insufferably twee.

― geeta (geeta), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:40 (twenty-three years ago)

The NYC crew I've meet all rock, the ones I haven't met must therefore rock as well. Very simple, methinks! :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:51 (twenty-three years ago)

i'd be psyched for mitsuwa if there is a posse going and conversation is not insufferably twee

looks like RM and I are out then....

seriously, if we all want to go, maybe we should take the bus, though it's not as glamorous as being driven around by felicity:)

but how sad will all the boyz be to get matching valentine's cards from both zoe and i?

Hey little man you wanna dance?

― The Lizzies, Monday, 3 February 2003 23:13 (twenty-three years ago)

(Left to right: Jody Felicity Geeta Jen Rosemary Mary)

See, the thing about the skinny red tie and the rough beige shirt is that if you're not careful you wind up looking like a zookeeper.

Also Nick, I am literally fucking offended that you think I'd casually refer to women as "the ultra-skinnies" and then suggest appropriate bra colors. ("For the ultra-fatties I suggest a light mauve.")

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 3 February 2003 23:18 (twenty-three years ago)

Let's see here, we've got Felicity, Mary, JBR, Rosemary, Geeta and Jen. Or not.

BASTARD Nabisco for sneaking in ahead of me! *hates*

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 3 February 2003 23:18 (twenty-three years ago)

I got my sister a Lizzies t-shirt once. The Lizzies weren't lesbians, were they?

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 23:20 (twenty-three years ago)

Ha, Ned, notice how our assignments don't match at all! I spent a good few minutes working out who was whom and why.

― nabisco (nabisco), Monday, 3 February 2003 23:21 (twenty-three years ago)

yeah - sorry Nabisco. I don't know what I was thinking. It was a bad time in my life.

― N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 3 February 2003 23:21 (twenty-three years ago)

Thanks for making me the sweet angelic looking one Nabisco!

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 3 February 2003 23:24 (twenty-three years ago)

I went with random impulse, CLEARLY the correct method. ;-)

That's a pretty sub-par twee-injoke song (especially for Tullycraft of "Pop Songs Your New Boyfriend's Too Stupid to Know About" fame) except holy God is this poignant:

you'll find more posies in the used bin
than there are people at the show

― nabisco (nabisco), Tuesday, 4 February 2003 00:13 (twenty-three years ago)

Gareth, do you want your tie or not???

― nabisco (nabisco), Wednesday, 5 February 2003 23:43 (twenty-three years ago)

yes! i want tie!

― gareth (gareth), Wednesday, 5 February 2003 23:49 (twenty-three years ago)

will anygirl take gareth shopping?

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 5 February 2003 23:52 (twenty-three years ago)

We need to appease him soon or we will all be sorry!

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 5 February 2003 23:55 (twenty-three years ago)

Seriously, dude, pick a tie and I'll send it to you: otherwise you have to promise to NOT TALK ABOUT THE TIE for a little while.

― nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 6 February 2003 00:36 (twenty-three years ago)

Or, you know, have one of those two send it to you, or order it direct, or whatever: I just want this whole tie-shopping thing to get wrapped efficiently up and for you to have your tie, because getting a single tie should not be a Herculean task.

thanks for that link, i was looking for button braces

Triscuit is jealous! That's so cute!

Awww! We'll look for Oulipo manuals for you on our next outing, Nabisco :)

Wacky woo.

Don't tease me.

Mary, I only ever wear one tie, and it's black. I just hate to think of Gareth sitting around pining for a tie: someone get the boy his cravat and have done with it!

― nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 6 February 2003 03:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Don't worry about Gareth, all this attention makes him happier than any tie ever could :)

Unless it was maybe of the Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down variety.

That first paragraph is my Saturday at Gurnee Mills to a "T," but scratch the part about actually finding a lot of nice clothes that follows.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 9 May 2003 02:34 (twenty-three years ago)

― Mary (Mary), Friday, 9 May 2003 02:43 (twenty-three years ago)

He's so picky, what is his problem?

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 9 May 2003 03:18 (twenty-three years ago)

Was it kind of brownish red?

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 9 May 2003 16:13 (twenty-three years ago)

That would be a kind of blood color, that is good for the undead/evil cult leader types.

― Nicole (Nicole), Friday, 9 May 2003 16:14 (twenty-three years ago)

If he hates it I hope he sends it back so I can rock girly prep style.

― Mary (Mary), Friday, 9 May 2003 16:30 (twenty-three years ago)

Wow, thanks for the link, I was totally just going to ask y'all if Woodbury Common was worth it. Still, feel free to weigh in if you have Woodbury Common stories.
