(One) Maelin: Emrys dreams of a world in which humans will not have to suffer the indignities of an organised society that requires public taxation of resources to provide services to its population. He longs for a better world, a world where people are not judged by the colour of their skin or the content of their character, but by the size and number of their guns.
(One) Maelin: Forty-five seconds of intro so far.
(One) Maelin: Holy crap, a whole minute. That is pure laziness.
(One) Seirou: Hey, Half-Life had 45 minutes of intro.
(One) Seirou: A full hour if you count until the first enemy.
(One) Seirou: And people have orgasms just THINKING about that game.
(One) Wallsy: Also, Ick is the last month of the year, IIRC.
(One) Aikanaro: I like to think of Ick as the afterbirth of the year.
(One) Aikanaro: Hence its name.
(One) Denzil: A pleasant image
(One) Denzil: You should be a poet.
(One) Aikanaro: I tried that once.
(One) Aikanaro: But after a while they wouldn't let me back into the maternity ward.

[18:13] <+Tiggum> "The internet's completely over. ... The internet's like MTV. At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can't be good for you." - Prince.
[20:55] <@Randall> yes, numbers. that's what you see when you go on the internet or turn on an ipod.
[20:57] <+Poshepocket> or when you turn on the television
[21:08] <+Solensean> I don't see the numbers anymore when I turn on the television
[21:08] <+Solensean> Only blonde, brunette, or video game shows
Kina has died for the last time. She is mourned.
(One) Tuan: Wait. How can Kina die if she's a liaison? suicide?
(One) Wallsy: Creators can die.
(One) Wallsy: Just the same as players, in fact.
(One) Wallsy: But losing their last life is not a problem because they don't have to use the same methods as players for coming back.
Kina tells you: do you know how to come back :(
(One) Beale: What? We're not allowed to punch homeless people now?
(One) Beale wisps: POLITICAL CORRECTNESS GONE MAD
(One) Aikanaro: It is polit-
(One) Aikanaro mutters.
(One) Elera wisps: I bet you're on the nofly list now.
(One) Siilaan: Yes.
(One) Siilaan: But that's because I made a tinfoil dong over my chest to go through the full body scanners.
(One) Vire: http://www.fustercluck.org/misc/baboon_presenting_ass2.jpg
(One) Maelin: That is the worse picture with 'ass' in the name I have seen today.

[23:23] <Jade> ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[23:23] <Jade> aikanaro
[23:23] <Aikanaro> HELLO
[23:24] <Jade> HI
[23:25] <RB> haha
[23:25] <RB> HI AIKANARO
[23:26] <Aikanaro> I HAVE MISSED THIS LEVEL OF INTRICATE CONVERSATION
[23:26] <pthag> wheels within wheels
(One) Taffyd: if I was making a mud today I would make one based on the demonslair books by terry pratchett.
(One) Taffyd: I feel that's a largely untapped theme/resource.
(One) Ploosk: Which was disappointing, because the entertainment in HaugMUD only really gets going when he starts to get into it
(One) Ploosk: Technically, his latest idea was already present
(One) Ploosk: It was
(One) Ploosk: Oh man
(One) Ploosk: It was 'a MUD which only exists in the player's imagination'
(One) Siilaan: Is it so terrible you can't even say i...
(One) Siilaan: Christ.
(One) Ploosk: There was going to be no rooms, no objects, no NPCs
(One) Ploosk: People would log on and imagine having fun
(One) Ploosk: he was going to advertise it on forums, in cafes, etc
(One) Kirk: That's brilliant.
(One) Ploosk: I was pretty excited at how hilarious that was going to be
(One) Ploosk: He also briefly flirted with the idea of 'Artists MUD'
(One) Ploosk: Where artists and critics would go to discuss art. Or something.
(One) Beale: A MUD that only exists in the imagination of Haug.
(One) Beale: Where you have to log into Haug's brain.
(One) Beale: Players can explore the twisted and ephemeral whims of Haug's psyche.
(One) Maelin: There are two kinds of people in the world. Those that can extrapolate from incomplete data, ...
[13:18] <+cntrational> I call my weed "The Quran"
[13:18] <+cntrational> because burning that shit will get you stoned
[08:59] <Jade> I was a zombie when I got up.
[08:59] <Ploosk> 'But you're alright nowoooooooo'?
[08:59] <Ploosk> Hrm. That's werewolves.
[09:00] <Ploosk> Cancel that pun.
[09:20] <Jade> RB is a terrible teach
[09:20] <Ploosk> Oh :p
[09:21] <Jade> I will be all like RB can you teach me to make iced coffee and he will be like OK so, ice coffee is not a very thirst quenching drink so get some lemon cordial and some fresh filtered water and put a little bit...
[09:21] <Jade> and I will be like what hold on i said iced coffee not a glass of cordial
[09:22] <Jade> and he will be like " in a glass and add some water"
[09:22] <Jade> and I will be like what shut up i said iced coffeee
[09:22] <Ploosk> well, he has a point, lemon cordial is deliciously refreshing
[09:22] <Jade> and then he will be like "its like if there was a fruit tree in a garden and a bird wanted to eat meat but there was no meat tree only fruit it would have to close its eyes and pretend"
[09:22] <Jade> and i will be like what the hell does that have to do with coffee.
[09:23] <Jade> and he will go its an analogy
[09:23] <Jade> and I will be like stupid analogy
[09:23] <Jade> and I will be like are you going to teach me to make iced coffee or not
[09:23] <Jade> and he will be like No I don't know how.
[09:24] <Jade> and i will be like oh fuck why didnt you say so instead of me fucking around for ten hours listening
[09:24] <Jade> and he will be like Oh I was trying to help I thought you'd like cordial
[17:39] <+nameless> There once was a plumber from Lee
[17:39] <+nameless> Who was plumbing his girl by the sea
[17:39] <+nameless> She said Stop your plumbing,
[17:39] <+nameless> There's somebody coming!
[17:39] <+nameless> Said the plumber still plumbing...It's me!
[23:35] <+dkr> Burying Bin Laden at sea will turn the whole world Al Qaeda. #homeopathy
[02:41] <pthag> at the university of um i forget which university you are at for some reason i want to say imperial college but if i'm wrong then you will be flattered and i will look stupid like i am pandering to you
[02:42] <pthag> so allow me to reassure you that even if you do go to IC I think you're a retard
[23:10] <Jade> Man I hate it when i go to rinse a spoon and I put it under the tap and then the curve in the spoon makes the water all squirt out at me and then my nice warm piggy flower jammies get all wet.
[23:10] <pthag> i like that
[23:10] <pthag> it is part of the wonder of fluid dynamics
[23:12] <Jade> fluid dynamics can kiss my balls.
[23:13] <pthag> *lap gently against
[18:30] <Jay> I dont think the kind of silly people who believe in the rapture believe in gay people being raptured.
[18:31] <Heliotic> they get a separate civil rapture
(One) Maelin: Aikanaro! I am four episodes into GoT now and I am worried something bad is going to happen to Tyrion Lannister but I don't want any spoilers, just empathy and commiseration.
(One) Aikanaro: It is okay, Maelin. IT IS OKAY.
[23:43] <Tiggum> Weird. Wikipedia isn't responding to me.
[23:45] <Tiggum> http://search.twitter.com/search?q=wikipedia+down
[23:54] <Beale> I can access wikipedia
[23:54] <Beale> Or, at least, Wikipedia's article on pie
[23:54] <Beale> Which was the first thing I thought to search for
[23:55] <Tiggum> Yeah, I can access it again too now, but those Twitter comments suggest that I was far from alone.
[23:56] <Beale> True
[23:57] <Beale> Perhaps this is the vanguard of some sort of anti-informational terrorist attack
[23:59] <Tiggum> All I know is that for one brief, terrifying moment, I remembered what it was like to not be able to instantly look up the answer to any question I'm vaguely curious about.
[23:59] <Tiggum> That's not a world I want to live in.
[00:01] <Beale> It is a horrifying prospect.
[00:03] <Beale> The thought of returning to the dark ages of the pre-2002-ish era profoundly disturbs me.
[00:03] <Beale> (I had to look up when Wikipedia became properly big on Wikipedia)
[09:13] <bcow> why did you take me to a gay steelmill
[13:09] <Rotas> how do you mill gay steel?
[14:33] <[Wobin]> fabulously
(One) Wallsy: "Your combined age is 2 years, 156 days, 16 hours, 49 minutes and 40 seconds."
(One) Envy: How do you do that?
(One) Ploosk: By being online a lot
(One) Aikanaro wisps: You just stand around for ages and ages and it just sort of happens- dammit, Ploosk.
[08:42] <I_Greyhound> When my wife and I go out to breakfast or lunch on the weekend, I update her on all the comics. I don't think she believes I'm telling the truth about Spider-man.
(One) Kyrnin: I have some rap love songs, Aikanaro...
(One) Aikanaro wisps: That is impossible, Kyrnin. Rap is all about bling, and, and 'women of a certain sort'.
