[00:07:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, i'm officially tired of mowing grass
[00:07:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> it can be winter now if it wants to
[00:07:39] <SpallsHurgenson> flamethrowers are still legal
[00:08:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> meh, i'd just burn down the house if i had one.
[00:09:16] <SpallsHurgenson> thus solving any mortgate worries at the same time; what's not to like?
[00:09:46] <TheMightyBuzzard> my booze is all in it.
[00:10:32] <SpallsHurgenson> that is a concern.
[00:11:53] <SpallsHurgenson> ah! I got ot! soylent free-booze party at TMB's place! Everybody help drink up his booze so TMB can do his lawn!
[00:11:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> just went and mowed the neighbor's yard cause his broke ass ain't got a mower and i got tired of looking at it. pretty sure i'll not get paid for it but at least it's not over there being all ugly now.
[00:12:47] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Anti-Counterfeiting 3D Barcodes Could Be Molded Into Products - http://sylnt.us - not-just-a-upc-anymore
[00:12:53] <SpallsHurgenson> y-y-you touched another man's lawn?
[00:13:03] * SpallsHurgenson is shocked and outraged!
[00:13:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> was almost up to my knees and he asked.
[00:13:46] <SpallsHurgenson> oooh, kinky!
[00:15:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> roomie n his chillins is back from gymnastics. gonna go be social.
[00:18:03] <SpallsHurgenson> children? those still exist?
[00:18:43] <SpallsHurgenson> I thought that was just a fad from the 90s
[00:19:50] <SpallsHurgenson> like Pogs, except with even less chance of getting your investment back
[00:43:15] <SpallsHurgenson> feel the excitement; today I changed the source folder for my desktop wallpapers; now I get a totally new selection of pictures to decorate my desktop!
[00:45:50] <SpallsHurgenson> it's good to be able to look back with pride at the day's accomplishments :)
[00:47:44] <SpallsHurgenson> stuff like this reassures me that I am living my life to its fullest! :)
[00:48:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> so from ~/Pictures/pr0n to ~/Pictures/pr0n/lesbian ?
[00:52:11] * SpallsHurgenson admits to nothing
[00:52:45] <AndyTheAbsurd> so from ~/Pictures/pr0n to ~/Pictures/pr0n/gay ?
[00:52:59] * SpallsHurgenson admits to nothing
[00:53:00] * AndyTheAbsurd won't judge
[00:54:23] <SpallsHurgenson> but how will I determine my self worth if not for the judgement of total strangers?
[00:56:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> do like i do, ask the magic 8ball
[00:56:36] <cmn32480> chillins do indeed still exist
[00:56:52] * SpallsHurgenson doesn't have eight balls...
[00:57:04] <cmn32480> nah... use the magic 8 Ball
[00:57:15] <cmn32480> you can get one at Cracker Barrel
[00:57:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> you can get really big coffee cups too, unlike our store.
[00:57:57] <TheMightyBuzzard> 20+oz or gtfo
[01:00:19] <SpallsHurgenson> if it's a choice between that and drinking 20oz of horrid tasting sludge, I'd prefer to get out please
[01:02:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> well for you we'll change it to coffee or pants
[01:04:45] <SpallsHurgenson> no pants, I have a note from my doctor
[01:05:17] <cmn32480> Doctor Who doesn't count
[01:08:25] <SpallsHurgenson> no worries, he's not under my insurance's coverage
[01:09:18] <cmn32480> oooooo woidows explorer is stuck in a crash restart cycle....
[01:09:23] <cmn32480> brb
[01:09:27] <SpallsHurgenson> try restarting
[01:15:52] <cmn32480> thanks SpallsHurgenson
[01:15:57] <cmn32480> that seems to have fixed it
[01:18:36] <SpallsHurgenson> "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"
[01:43:34] * Deucalion wanders around looking vague
[01:43:56] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - World 'Facing Flood of New Toxins' - http://sylnt.us - toxic-avenger-development
[01:44:01] <SpallsHurgenson> I dunno, you look less "vague" and more "constipated" to me
[01:45:27] <Deucalion> Nah, had stupidly spicy curry yesterday - today was like a pull through with an old christmas tree.
[01:46:02] <SpallsHurgenson> your bowels may be saying "yes yes yes" but your face says "no no no"
[01:49:02] <Deucalion> you know you got the chilli level right when depositing the aftermath causes the back of your head to sweat. Can we change the subject? I think this is TMI for anyone
[01:50:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> they have no appreciation of fine humor then.
[01:50:12] <SpallsHurgenson> perhaps we should put it to a vote
[01:50:18] <SpallsHurgenson> or maybe a poll on soylent
[01:51:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> no, no rectum polls. we're based in new england not SF.
[01:51:16] <cmn32480> That's a spicy meat-a-ball!
[01:51:55] <cmn32480> how goes it Deucalion? Other than your rear-end issues.
[01:52:16] <Deucalion> it goes cmn32480 - can't say much more than that
[01:52:30] <Deucalion> you?
[01:52:38] <SpallsHurgenson> I think you made it quite clear that it goes, Ducalion
[01:52:52] * Deucalion hides SpallsHurgenson's cat
[01:53:10] <SpallsHurgenson> kitty!
[01:53:12] <cmn32480> not too bad... finishing up some stuff I need to go to NYC tomorrow
[01:53:25] <SpallsHurgenson> woot! NYC!
[01:53:49] <cmn32480> ugh
[01:54:01] <cmn32480> I loved working there in my low 20's.
[01:54:10] <cmn32480> now... I coudl pass it by and not think twice
[01:54:30] <cmn32480> the only thing I miss is the food
[01:56:27] <cmn32480> there was a jewish deli not far from where I work
[01:56:29] <cmn32480> ed
[01:56:41] <SpallsHurgenson> gee, in NYC? That really narrows it down :)
[01:56:57] <cmn32480> the guy and his wife... orthodox jews... but I am pretty sure they were about 900 years old
[01:57:29] <cmn32480> it was awesome
[01:57:36] <cmn32480> not like Carnegie Deli awesome
[01:58:01] <cmn32480> but really good home made mustards, and I think they smoked some f the meat themselves
[01:58:09] <cmn32480> geesh.. my mouth is watering
[01:58:29] <SpallsHurgenson> well, you ARE going to NYC tomorrow...
[02:10:31] * SpallsHurgenson jpgs a bmp down from 85 mb to 4 mb... black magic!
[02:33:18] <cmn32480> Gentlemen (and SpallsHurgenson), I am off to bed. early day tomorrow.
[02:33:40] <cmn32480> A pleasant good evening.
[02:33:45] <Deucalion> enjoy the bustle of NYC :P
[02:34:03] <cmn32480> Deucalion - I could live my whole life and never go back. :-)
[02:34:19] <cmn32480> but i do miss that secretary from the 16th floor that I dated that summer.
[02:34:24] * cmn32480 sighs wistfully
[02:34:52] <Deucalion> I feel the same about central london
[02:35:14] <cmn32480> that you miss the secretary on the 16th floor?
[02:35:18] <SpallsHurgenson> oh, you two should meet up; he's doing fine now that the hormone therapy is done!
[02:35:54] <Deucalion> Too many years commuting in the armpit of another during rush hour.... I don't miss that BS one jot
[02:36:09] <cmn32480> she was a late 30's divorcee....
[02:36:26] <SpallsHurgenson> he's dating again now :)
[02:36:41] <cmn32480> and if she had been taking hormoe therapy, and had the surgery, the doctor was PHENOMENAL
[02:37:47] <cmn32480> I don't miss the commute either Deucalion.
[02:38:17] <SpallsHurgenson> I think I'm the only person in the world who likes riding the subway
[02:38:45] <cmn32480> yeah... but you are the weird pantsless guy with the 3ft circle around him that nobody will enter
[02:39:28] <SpallsHurgenson> it's TRAINS! And they are UNDERGROUND! Running on incredibly dangerous amounts of ELECTRICITY! What's not to like?
[02:39:29] <Deucalion> I like the tube / subway outside of commuter hell hours, it's a good way to get around. But in those nightmare hours.... fuck that.

[03:05:57] * Deucalion wafts off to horizontal oblivion - be well all :)
[03:06:15] <SpallsHurgenson> the advertising industry needs to hire some of the music- and movie- industry's accountants so they can calculate how many trillions of dollars the American economy is losing because of adblockers :)

[10:23:35] <Gravis> even TFA has the title, "Exclusive: Boeing and GE Warned About Airplane Engine That Exploded"
[10:23:59] <Gravis> if a 777 explodes, it's a much different matter
[10:40:28] <crutchy> not as bad as if Need Another Seven Astronauts ignores their engineers and launches a shuttle with a high likelihood of explosion

[17:52:32] <Gravis> SirFinkus: seriously, republican candidates are so bad it really doesn't matter who wins
[17:53:11] <SirFinkus> they're all terrible, but the circus is still pretty entertaining
[17:53:14] <Gravis> i'm hoping Deez Nuts gets more votes.
[17:53:50] <SirFinkus> it'd be funny if it did, and there was actually a guy named that

[17:59:08] <Gravis> SirFinkus: i mean... if there is anyone that could tank the nation, it's him
[18:03:43] <Gravis> SirFinkus: at some point it will happen due to automation but the technology isn't quite there yet.
