[04:12:12] <jasassin> just watching the news, some jackass used a soft air rifle to break into a store and steal beer. cut his hand breaking the glass out trying to hammer it out. then the cops followed the trail of blood this guy was seeping out all the way back to his house.
[04:13:02] <jasassin> thats fine thats all fine. whatever. i just have two questsions. #1. What kinda alchoholic steals *BEER* after breaking into a store? #2. What kind of beer did he steal?
[04:13:54] <jasassin> probably got a triple felony for a 6 pack of Fat Tire. what a sad sad world.
[04:15:10] <jasassin> nah if it was Fat Tire, that might be interesting. I bet it was a pack of Bud. Sad. Sooo sad.

[09:56:40] <FatPhil> https://www.youtube.com is a bit worrying, in particular if you watched http://www.imdb.com only the night before.

[09:56:44] <exec> └─ 13The Brainwashing of My Dad (2015) - IMDb
[10:08:45] <chromas> Fake news
[10:09:08] <chromas> Oh wait, "alternative facts" is the more recent meme
[10:14:57] <FatPhil> I Think the official name for them now is "the truth (believe it or become outlawed)"
[10:15:43] <FatPhil> I never knew Trump was addicted to Breitbart. Fox makes sense, as he's a retard, but not Breitbart, as he's way older than Gen-X.
[10:18:39] <chromas> The internet, personified
[10:19:07] <FatPhil> Unbelievable!
[10:19:24] <chromas> This election was twitter vs memes
[10:19:56] * chromas doesn't see anything wrong with the breitbart headlines he showed
[10:21:59] <chromas> water turning frogs gay was kinda right
[10:22:45] * chromas puts estrogen-emulating biodegradable plastic into the city water
[10:27:15] <FatPhil> oh, come on, those headlines are just sensationalistic misrepretation of facts, and the sponges-for-brains that read that kind of stuff will only absorb the sensationalistic parts.
[10:28:40] <chromas> well that's true of all the medias
[10:29:37] <boru> I'm inclined to agree with chromas. And the imminent crack down on independent media is testament to that.
[10:30:05] <FatPhil> 1st one's just classic Milo trolling/flamebaiting - " it will keep you from getting pregnant at the low cost of turning you into a hideous monster." "do you want to continue turning yourself into Gollum"
[10:30:32] <boru> It's been quite some time since I've seen such levels of censorship and propaganda in Western media.
[10:30:42] <boru> (As I have in the last year or so, that is)
[10:30:56] <chromas> I like how "fake news" is a terrible insult against the 'mainstream' media even though it was their own buzzword
[10:31:10] <boru> Indeed.
[10:31:38] <boru> The chickens have come home to roost, and, personally, my schadenfreud is up to 11.
[10:31:53] <FatPhil> classic martial arts move- use your enemy's force against himself
[10:32:32] <boru> I'd say there's prior art to martial arts.
[10:33:14] <chromas> on the posimative side, maybe this is the worse we need for things to get better
[10:33:37] <chromas> Perhaps some better people will be inspired to run next election
[10:33:46] <chromas> or erection for the east-Asians
[10:36:03] <FatPhil> I find the so-called "liberal" media in the US to be between vapid and objectionable, so I'm not going to complain if the fingers are being pointed at them.
[10:37:18] <FatPhil> I tend to like exceptionally boring news sources, and ones with a more global persepective. My current favourite is France24, but Deutsche Welle's also quite solid.
[10:38:44] * chromas creates a trendy news startup consisting of me watching all the C-SPANs and writing articles about it. Who wants to invest?

[12:41:30] <cmn32480> oh yes... and Happy Tuesday... it can't possibly be as bad as Monday...
[12:42:11] <boru> You'd think so, wouldn't you?
[12:42:44] <boru> I've been putting the meat of my dead colleagues through the grinder all morning!
[12:44:05] <cmn32480> I was HOPING it couldn't be as bad as Monday....
[12:44:13] <cmn32480> obviously I'm wrong.
