[21:21:18] <chromas> But can they defeat FRP?
[21:23:49] <FatPhil> there needs to be a "meaningless" or "word salad" moderation.
[21:24:16] <FatPhil> to be honest, most of the time "flamebait" and "troll" are interchangeable.
[21:24:27] <FatPhil> trolls bait, that's what they do.
[21:24:37] <chromas> Go away, baitin'!
[21:24:59] <FatPhil> I am the master at baiting
[21:25:24] <chromas> Gentlemen, you must master your joysticks as the fisherman masters bait.
[21:27:17] <FatPhil> I'm a sysadmin, I am the master of my (second level) domain.
[21:27:43] <FatPhil> 'cept that's a Seinfelt reference from decades back that most of you youngsters might not get.
[21:28:08] <chromas> Did--did you just double dip that chip?
[21:28:26] <FatPhil> Having said that, I never used to watch the program, so I have no idea how I know the reference myself!?
[21:28:53] <FatPhil> I heard that in his voice!
[21:29:11] <FatPhil> I've never watched the program, I promise you!?!?!

[21:30:58] <chromas> oh that one's longer
[21:44:47] <n1_> anyone got a dept. title for quadratic formulas and or school kids being studied as they study quadratic formulas?
[21:45:10] <n1_> i'll pay 5 internet points for accepted suggestions
[21:48:22] <chromas> problematic students
[21:48:36] * chromas done ain't smart enough to think up one
[21:51:42] <n1_> i
[21:52:02] <n1_> i'm essentially a high-school dropout, so i definitely aint smart enough
[21:52:25] <n1_> still not used to this damn keyboard either
[21:54:19] <n1_> any takers at 7.5 internet points?
[21:56:07] <chromas> from the yo-dawg-I-heard-you-like-recursion-so-I-put-students-in-your-problems-so-you-can-study-while-they-study dept
[21:56:16] <chromas> (from the ancient-memes dept)
[21:56:34] * chromas clogs the channel with bs
[21:57:02] <n1_> im not sure if that's better or worse than my bs: the students-are-really-the-ones-teaching-us dept.
[21:57:35] <chromas> the-students-teach-the-(bigger)-students
[21:58:00] <chromas> the-students-become-the-problem
[21:58:08] <boru> no-royal-road dept?
[21:58:31] <boru> Applies in both cases, to paraphrase Euclid.
[21:58:47] <boru> If paraphrasing Euclid, rathe.r
[22:00:13] <n1_> going with students become the problem
[22:01:23] <boru> Pft, people besides mathematicians will get that one!
[22:02:19] * chromas never understood what made quadratic equations quadratic.
[22:02:24] <boru> no-royal-road-to-understanding-students dept?
[22:02:36] <chromas> Well I don't geddit so it must be good :D
[22:03:03] * chromas not a mathematician
[22:03:20] <n1_> you'll have to split the internet points now
[22:03:31] <boru> Euclid, when trying to teach Ptolemy geometry, said that to him, when he asked if there were an easier ay to understand it.
[22:03:54] <boru> Like most mathematics, you've got to do the proofs, even if you're a king.
[22:04:20] <chromas> Sounds like a hassle. I'm just gonna put 50 and hand it in
[22:05:16] <boru> Just put 1.618.
[22:05:34] <chromas> I'm not falling for that again
[22:05:46] <chromas> Last time I cheated off you I got a D
[22:06:00] <boru> Did he buy you dinner, at least?
[22:06:10] <chromas> No :(
[22:06:23] <chromas> didn't even spit on it first
[22:07:01] <n1_> hah
