2008-01-13 00:47 < Lycurgus> you mean like a "peer of the realm"?
2008-01-13 00:48 < Lubaf> Lycurgus: No, I think he means pear.
2008-01-13 00:49 < Lubaf> He wants a pear review.
2008-01-13 00:49 < JerseyDevil86> oh
2008-01-13 00:49 < Lycurgus> d'oh!
2008-01-13 00:49 < Lubaf> This pear was quite tasty, if not tangy enough.
2008-01-13 00:49 < Lubaf> Needs more cowbell, too.
2008-01-13 00:49 < Schroeder> you know what else needs more cowbell?
2008-01-13 00:49 < Schroeder> MY PENIS
2008-01-13 00:50 < Schroeder> that's what needs more cowbell
2008-01-13 00:50 < Riana> that's so disturbing
2008-01-13 00:50 < Xihix> well uhh.
2008-01-13 00:50 < Xihix> A peer review would be nice.
2008-01-13 00:50 < Schroeder> Xihix: but since you already support Ron Paul, you have nothing to offer me
2008-01-13 00:51 < Xihix> Ok, I lied.
2008-01-13 00:51 < Xihix> I support uhh
2008-01-13 00:51 < Schroeder> nope, not gonna work
2008-01-13 00:51 < Xihix> ... :(
2008-01-13 00:52 < JerseyDevil86> Ron Paul supporters = http://www.ladieslogic.com/uploaded_images/Ron-Paul-9-11-Inside-Job-2-786248.jpg
2008-01-13 00:52 < Lubaf> I want a pear review!
2008-01-13 00:52 < Lubaf> Is this pear tasty?
2008-01-13 00:52 < Lubaf> Is it tangy?
2008-01-13 00:52 < Schroeder> "Britney's pears"
2008-01-13 00:53 < NotACow> PEARS
2008-01-13 00:53 < NotACow> DEATH TO PEARS
2008-01-13 01:00 < jtizzle1854> anybody here have a Hi-Bird ATV? I just got one and it's been a couple of days and I haven't got it started yet
2008-01-13 01:01 < Lubaf> Don't Fear the Pearer.
2008-01-13 01:01 < Lubaf> Needs more pearbell.
2008-01-13 01:02 < jtizzle1854> anyone have a hi-bird atv?
2008-01-13 01:03 < Schroeder> jtizzle1854: I have a high penis
2008-01-13 01:03 < Schroeder> that might be similar enough that I can help you out
2008-01-13 01:03 < jtizzle1854> nah
2008-01-13 01:03 < FastLizard4> Schroeder: You are approaching the ban point
2008-01-13 01:03 < jtizzle1854> it's an atv
2008-01-13 01:04 < jtizzle1854> have y'all heard of it do any of ya'll have a four-wheeler
2008-01-13 01:04 < jtizzle1854> ?
2008-01-13 01:04 < mrflip> Hello -- this is my first time here, so please be gentle. I am doing some semantic parsing of the DB dump, and I find that the {{editnote templates -- although enclosed in <!-- comments -- are rarely closed.
2008-01-13 01:04 < jtizzle1854> anyone here have a four wheeler?
2008-01-13 01:05 < FastLizard4> mrflip: Dontworryaboutit
2008-01-13 01:05 < Schroeder> FastLizard4: (a) that's not for you to decide; (b) I've been a regular in here since at least 2003, whereas this is the first time I've ever seen you in here; I'm a much more accepted member of this channel then you can ever hope to be
2008-01-13 01:05 < mrflip> 1) is there a reason for this? 2) if not, is there someone who runs a bot to clean this stuff up that I should contact? I'm happy to ignore it, but i may not be the only one that messes up. (It makes parsing a lot harder)
2008-01-13 01:05 < FastLizard4> 1) Not sure 2) Not sure, look around the wiki
2008-01-13 01:06 < Schroeder> so don't pretend like you have any sort of authority over me
2008-01-13 01:06 < Schroeder> you don't
2008-01-13 01:06 < Schroeder> don't pretend I don't know how to act in here, or don't know what's accepted
2008-01-13 01:06 < Schroeder> I do
2008-01-13 01:06 * FastLizard4 guesses that Schroeder is also the paranoid type that jumps every time someone tells a joke
2008-01-13 01:06 < Schroeder> no, only when newbies like you get uppity towards established veterans like myself
2008-01-13 01:07 < FastLizard4> Schroeder: {{citation needed}}
2008-01-13 01:07 < Schroeder> congratulations, you can recite pseudo-vernacular by rote, with no understanding of its proper in-joke context
2008-01-13 01:07 < Schroeder> a telltale sign of an overeager, uppity newbie
2008-01-13 01:08 < Paine> yeesh, calm down
2008-01-13 01:09 < FastLizard4> And, for the record, I first logged in here 14 weeks 6 days 7 hours 54 minutes 30 seconds ago
2008-01-13 01:10 < Paine> we didn't ask, but thanks anyway
2008-01-13 01:11 < uberpenguin> yay, online age epenis
2008-01-13 01:11 < uberpenguin> mine is... 5 years 7 weeks 5 days (5h 5m 1s) ago
2008-01-13 01:12 < Schroeder> I've been coming in this channel for just under five years
2008-01-13 01:12 < Schroeder> most of it was under a different nick
2008-01-13 01:13 < Paine> I'm sorry but nobody cares how long anybody's been in here, this isn't an e-penis contest, it's a wikipedia discussion channel. I.e. we discuss, not attempt to 1up each other..
2008-01-13 01:13 < Paine> in other news, I have a very large epenis.
2008-01-13 01:13 < uberpenguin> nope, it's an e-penis contest
2008-01-13 01:13 < uberpenguin> sorry
2008-01-13 01:13 < Paine> it is? damn.
2008-01-13 01:13 * Jeff_G has been online for 22+ years.
2008-01-13 01:13 < Paine> Quick! Someone post their edit count!
2008-01-13 01:13 * FastLizard4 troutslaps Pain
2008-01-13 01:13 < Schroeder> Paine: it is when some uppity newbie tries to act like he's entitled to "warn" me when in fact I'm doing nothing wrong, and I know way better than he what is and is not accepted
2008-01-13 01:13 * FastLizard4 troutslaps Paine
2008-01-13 01:13 < Schroeder> I am obligated to put him back in his place
2008-01-13 01:14 * Jeff_G has editcounts of 4000+ on 2 projects.
2008-01-13 01:14 < MessedRawker> how much would you say a cup of coffee costs?
2008-01-13 01:14 < Schroeder> drinking coffee == retarded
2008-01-13 01:14 < MessedRawker> that's not the point
2008-01-13 01:14 < Schroeder> for the longest time, I didn't drink ANYTHING except water, milk, Gatorade, and fruit juices
2008-01-13 01:14 < Paine> wow, hostile..
2008-01-13 01:14 * FastLizard4 suggests that Schroeder go to sleep
2008-01-13 01:15 < Schroeder> only recently have I started drinking soft drinks--and ONLY soft drinks--in small quantities
2008-01-13 01:15 < Paine> that or get stoned, either way
2008-01-13 01:15 < Schroeder> and only because I've discovered that they work as a stool softener
2008-01-13 01:15 < Schroeder> FastLizard4: do we really have to go through all this again?
2008-01-13 01:16 < uberpenguin> yeah, I'd say you could really use something to soften up whatever stiff matter you have up your ass ;)
2008-01-13 01:16 < Paine> 'stool softener' ?
2008-01-13 01:16 < FastLizard4> Yeah, sure, why not, I could just as easily divert my attention to something else while you rant about how you are superior to everyone else
2008-01-13 01:16 < Paine> mm..hmm.
2008-01-13 01:16 < Schroeder> not to everyone else
2008-01-13 01:16 < Schroeder> just to pathetic over-eager newbies who don't "get" the culture of this channel yet
2008-01-13 01:16 < Schroeder> but act like they do
2008-01-13 01:16 < FastLizard4> Precisely
2008-01-13 01:17 < FastLizard4> You act as you are superior
2008-01-13 01:17 < uberpenguin> the culture of this channel changes every few months, who cares
2008-01-13 01:17 < Schroeder> sure
2008-01-13 01:17 < FastLizard4> Perhaps not to everyone, but some people
2008-01-13 01:17 < Schroeder> to the few individuals who fit that description
2008-01-13 01:17 < Schroeder> because
2008-01-13 01:17 < Schroeder> GUESS WHAT
2008-01-13 01:17 < Schroeder> I AM superior to them!
2008-01-13 01:18 * Paine gives it about 3 minutes before it breaks down into throwing feces
2008-01-13 01:18 < uberpenguin> Schroeder is full of ammo for that fight
2008-01-13 01:18 < Schroeder> Paine: they'll be nice and soft, thanks to my soft drink consumption
2008-01-13 01:18 * FastLizard4 thinks Schroeder has a wikibreak if he is willing to argue over his superiority over people in understanding a culture that changes every 3-odd months, like uberfuzzy says
2008-01-13 01:19 < FastLizard4> *has a failed wikibreak
2008-01-13 01:19 * Paine sets up a fortress of solitude in the corner.
2008-01-13 01:19 < Schroeder> uberpenguin is wrong
2008-01-13 01:19 * Schroeder whips out his +3924/+32532 Flashlight of Intense Blindness
2008-01-13 01:19 * FastLizard4 *is* in his fortress of solitude (Read: his PC)
2008-01-13 01:19 < Schroeder> (8 D-Cell)
2008-01-13 01:19 < FastLizard4> Ooooooooh
2008-01-13 01:20 < Schroeder> (Maglite)
2008-01-13 01:20 < FastLizard4> What about those 500 what super halogen light stands?
2008-01-13 01:20 < FastLizard4> bah
2008-01-13 01:20 < Schroeder> (With interchangeable color lens filters)
2008-01-13 01:20 < FastLizard4> Why did I type "what" instead of "watt"?
2008-01-13 01:20 < Schroeder> maglites are fucking indestructible
2008-01-13 01:20 < Schroeder> I dropped one off of a 180-foot cliff once
2008-01-13 01:20 < FastLizard4> wow
2008-01-13 01:20 < Schroeder> into a stream
2008-01-13 01:20 < Schroeder> walked around to the bottom
2008-01-13 01:20 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, my maglite dissapointed me recently
2008-01-13 01:20 < Schroeder> not a scratch, and worked perfectly fine
2008-01-13 01:20 < FastLizard4> wow
2008-01-13 01:20 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, its not quite heavy enough to bust a window out
2008-01-13 01:20 < Leslie_S> :(
2008-01-13 01:20 < Schroeder> Leslie_S: you have got to be shitting me
2008-01-13 01:20 < FastLizard4> Yeah, their pretty strong
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> Leslie_S: probably because you're using the pathetic one
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> there are different sizes
2008-01-13 01:21 * FastLizard4 shoots the autocorrect addon for his chatzilla
2008-01-13 01:21 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, its a 4 d...
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> ehh
2008-01-13 01:21 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, and no shit there are different sizes. and its pretty obvious what you might and might not break a window out with
2008-01-13 01:21 < FastLizard4> I meant "they're" instead of "their"
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> last week, I accidentally drove my van into three feet of water
2008-01-13 01:21 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, it was also automotive side glass.
2008-01-13 01:21 < FastLizard4> What happened?
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> I was able to use my 4-D Maglite to bust out the side window so I could get out
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> so yeah, I'm pretty sure you're shitting me
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> van was totaled
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> but
2008-01-13 01:21 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, wtf? howd you do that?
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> I was planning on buying a new one in the next few weeks
2008-01-13 01:21 < Schroeder> anyway
2008-01-13 01:22 < Schroeder> so it worked out well for me
2008-01-13 01:22 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, and 3 feet of water totaled the van? :o
2008-01-13 01:22 < Schroeder> because of the settlement from the insurance company, I didn't have to take out a loan
2008-01-13 01:22 < FastLizard4> I have a glass breaking tool, they're so fun!
2008-01-13 01:22 < Schroeder> and since it's not a "wreck", it doesn't raise my coverage rates
2008-01-13 01:22 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, sounds like it was a lot deeper than 3 feet....
2008-01-13 01:22 < FastLizard4> Just one tap and the glass shatters
2008-01-13 01:22 < Schroeder> Leslie_S: when it gets sucked up into the engine, it destroys it
2008-01-13 01:22 < Leslie_S> its not like 3 feet is going to prevent you from rolling a window down.
2008-01-13 01:22 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, but how the hell did you have to break a window out to get out?
2008-01-13 01:22 < FastLizard4> Leslie_S: Yes it can
2008-01-13 01:22 < Schroeder> they are if they're power windows and it shorts everything out
2008-01-13 01:23 < FastLizard4> Schroeder: Mythbusters tested that, it dosen't
2008-01-13 01:23 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, power windows work for like a minute under water, unless its salt water.
2008-01-13 01:23 < FastLizard4> Power windows won't short out
2008-01-13 01:23 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, i suppose you didnt even try it.
2008-01-13 01:23 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, they will in salt water.
2008-01-13 01:23 < Schroeder> the electrical system in my van was totally dead
2008-01-13 01:23 < Schroeder> no, I tried it
2008-01-13 01:23 < Schroeder> everything was dead
2008-01-13 01:23 < FastLizard4> However, the water pressure will simply prevent from opening
2008-01-13 01:23 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, not in THREE FEET. there will be no water pressure on the window.
2008-01-13 01:23 < Paine> sun roof....
2008-01-13 01:23 < Leslie_S> Paine, most cars dont *HAVE* sunroofs.
2008-01-13 01:23 < Schroeder> water pressure will keep the door from opening
2008-01-13 01:23 < Schroeder> it shouldn't affect the windows
2008-01-13 01:23 < Schroeder> since, like, the windows move up and down
2008-01-13 01:23 < Paine> carve one.
2008-01-13 01:23 < Schroeder> not in and out
2008-01-13 01:23 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, yes, exactly.
2008-01-13 01:23 < FastLizard4> Leslie_S: There is a formula for determining water pressure at water depth, I believe three feet is something like...
2008-01-13 01:24 < Schroeder> what did affect the windows was everything shorting out
2008-01-13 01:24 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, water pressure will affect the window if the window is submerged though, think about it.
2008-01-13 01:24 < Schroeder> if not that
2008-01-13 01:24 < Schroeder> then the force of impact must have damaged something
2008-01-13 01:24 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, it forces the window to the inside of the car, pushing it against the seals and making it impossible to open
2008-01-13 01:24 < Schroeder> dunno, never bothered to check it out
2008-01-13 01:24 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, but not in three feet of water.
2008-01-13 01:24 < Schroeder> and the power windows wouldn't work, period, end of story
2008-01-13 01:24 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, was it salt water?
2008-01-13 01:24 < Schroeder> no, it was fresh water
2008-01-13 01:24 < Schroeder> dude, I was there
2008-01-13 01:24 < Schroeder> I know what happened
2008-01-13 01:24 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, you clearly arent thinking at all.
2008-01-13 01:25 < FastLizard4> Leslie_S: 80 pounds per square inch at 5 feet, so...
2008-01-13 01:25 < Schroeder> I tried to operate the power windows
2008-01-13 01:25 < Schroeder> they didn't work
2008-01-13 01:25 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, at three feet, the water wont touch the damn windows.
2008-01-13 01:25 < Schroeder> so I busted them out
2008-01-13 01:25 < SNORLAX> better question: why did you drive into it? was it a libertarian thing?
2008-01-13 01:25 < Schroeder> no
2008-01-13 01:25 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, and if it does, itll barely touch them at the bottom.
2008-01-13 01:25 < FastLizard4> Leslie_S: On some cars it will
2008-01-13 01:25 < Schroeder> I live out in the boonies
2008-01-13 01:25 < SNORLAX> that is a libertarian thing
2008-01-13 01:25 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, its going to seriously submerge so much of the window that it cant open?
2008-01-13 01:25 < Schroeder> you know how on country roads, the bridges over ditches and creeks are often raised a few feet above the rest of the road?
2008-01-13 01:25 < Schroeder> well, when we get torrential rains like we did that time
2008-01-13 01:25 < Schroeder> they act as dikes
2008-01-13 01:26 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, anyway, water pressure really doesnt matter. as long as the window is submerged totally, it cant open. it doesnt take much pressure to lock it up.
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> and hold the water in between them
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> when this happened
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> it was late at night
2008-01-13 01:26 < SNORLAX> ah
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> and since the bridges are raised, it's like coming up over a hill
2008-01-13 01:26 < FastLizard4> Leslie_S: Do refrain from pinging my username for consecutive messages
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> so you can't see what's on the other side until you get over the crest
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> and then, bango, there's the water
2008-01-13 01:26 < SNORLAX> but the curbs were 3 feet high?
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> no time to react
2008-01-13 01:26 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, im so sorry.
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> SNORLAX: there are no "curbs"...it's just a low-lying area
2008-01-13 01:26 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, everyone else does it.
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> so the water collects there
2008-01-13 01:26 < FastLizard4> hmm...
2008-01-13 01:26 < SNORLAX> and it doesn't go into the streams why?
2008-01-13 01:26 < Schroeder> I went out with the salvage company the next day
2008-01-13 01:27 < Schroeder> the water had risen to five feet by then
2008-01-13 01:27 < Leslie_S> its hard for me to follow threads in here if you dont do it for me, so why shouldnt i do it for you?
2008-01-13 01:27 < FastLizard4> Aaah, there we go, "Disable notification on consecutive pings".
2008-01-13 01:27 < SNORLAX> seems like the problem is not the bridges but just flooding period
2008-01-13 01:27 < Schroeder> and it covered an area at least a couple thousand feet across, and five hundred feet wide
2008-01-13 01:27 < Leslie_S> infact, i wont even read what you say to me if you dont say my name.
2008-01-13 01:27 < Leslie_S> and what kind of crap client calls it a ping?
2008-01-13 01:27 < Schroeder> it does go into the streams
2008-01-13 01:27 < Schroeder> but they were overflowing because of all the rain
2008-01-13 01:27 < Schroeder> so it was backed up
2008-01-13 01:27 < Schroeder> and yeah, it's with the bridges
2008-01-13 01:28 < Schroeder> they kind of dam the water in
2008-01-13 01:28 < Schroeder> otherwise it'd spread out more and be shallower
2008-01-13 01:28 < Schroeder> and possibly passable
2008-01-13 01:28 < FastLizard4> Leslie_S: A ChatZilla installation I modified
2008-01-13 01:28 < FastLizard4> replaced "stalk match" with "ping" to simplify
2008-01-13 01:28 < Schroeder> but anyway, yeah, I made out like a king
2008-01-13 01:28 < Schroeder> I was planning on replacing this van in another month or so anyway
2008-01-13 01:29 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, sounds retarded. no offense.
2008-01-13 01:29 < FastLizard4> It makes it a little easier for me
2008-01-13 01:29 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, stalk match sounds REALLY retarded though.
2008-01-13 01:29 < Schroeder> and since it was a total loss, I got the replacement for free (minus my $100 deductible)
2008-01-13 01:29 < FastLizard4> That's why
2008-01-13 01:29 < Schroeder> and since it's not a "wreck", my rates don't change a bit
2008-01-13 01:29 < FastLizard4> Is there a better term for it?
2008-01-13 01:29 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, awesome
2008-01-13 01:29 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, highlight
2008-01-13 01:29 < FastLizard4> aah
2008-01-13 01:29 < FastLizard4> thanks
2008-01-13 01:29 < Schroeder> aside from having to wade through 600 feet of 40-degree water, I couldn't be happier
2008-01-13 01:30 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, i one upped that.
2008-01-13 01:30 < Schroeder> (600 feet is an exaggeration)
2008-01-13 01:30 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, i launched my boat and let it drift out a couple hundred feet before i realized i didnt have the damn key.
2008-01-13 01:30 < Schroeder> that's why you carry paddles
2008-01-13 01:31 < Leslie_S> Schroeder, yes, but sometimes you cant paddle against the current in a motorboat, because the hull isnt shaped in a way thats easy to paddle..
2008-01-13 01:31 < FastLizard4> ...or make sure you have the key on you by, say, storing it in a secret location on your boat
2008-01-13 01:31 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, you make it sound like its a real key or something
2008-01-13 01:31 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, and like its a real boat or something that has places that are hidden
2008-01-13 01:31 < FastLizard4> I don't know, is it?
2008-01-13 01:32 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, i usually do store the key with the boat, but i had it in my car.
2008-01-13 01:32 < FastLizard4> Is it one of those idiot round keys?
2008-01-13 01:32 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, no. its one of those plastic wedge keys.
2008-01-13 01:32 < FastLizard4> Like the ones on vending machines?
2008-01-13 01:32 < FastLizard4> Oh
2008-01-13 01:32 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, NO
2008-01-13 01:32 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, and those "idiot round keys" are the best kind of key in existence.
2008-01-13 01:32 < FastLizard4> You know, they keylocks on vending machines can be unlocked with a rolled up business card?
2008-01-13 01:33 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, sounds like a really sucky lock. the design itself is the best possible though.
2008-01-13 01:33 < FastLizard4> Yes, and most round key locks, too
2008-01-13 01:33 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, anyway, this isnt a lock, it just shuts the engine down if you fall off.
2008-01-13 01:33 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, its not actually to prevent theft
2008-01-13 01:33 < FastLizard4> Aah
2008-01-13 01:34 < Paine> Leslie_S: you've started your last nine lines with "Fastlizard4," going to make it an even 10?
2008-01-13 01:34 < FastLizard4> Oh, that reminds me, we once tried to break through a computer chassis lock at my school which had a round key. So, we got the MAPP gas torch. The lock, which we later discovered was made out of tin, melted in seconds.
2008-01-13 01:34 < FastLizard4> (I had assistance from my chemistry teacher)
2008-01-13 01:34 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, you could steal the whole boat easier than you could try to hotwire it, if it had electric start.
2008-01-13 01:35 * FastLizard4 troutslaps Paine
2008-01-13 01:35 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, it has a pull starter like a lawnmower though :D
2008-01-13 01:35 < Paine> 11!
2008-01-13 01:35 < FastLizard4> Oh, those are soooo fun!
2008-01-13 01:35 < FastLizard4> I know my cousin owns a bout that has a pull-start, it regularly takes around 4 people to pull it fast enough to get the damn thing started
2008-01-13 01:35 < Leslie_S> thats crazy
2008-01-13 01:36 < Leslie_S> my motor is brand new and in excellent condition...starts on the first pull nearly every time.
2008-01-13 01:36 < Leslie_S> and i barely have to pull it
2008-01-13 01:36 < FastLizard4> My cousin's is second hand
2008-01-13 01:36 < Leslie_S> and a pile of crap
2008-01-13 01:36 < FastLizard4> God knows how old the motor is
2008-01-13 01:36 * FastLizard4 sure dosen't
2008-01-13 01:36 < Leslie_S> my motor also cost over $2000
2008-01-13 01:36 < FastLizard4> Maybe I should get the motor carbon dated so I could find out
2008-01-13 01:37 < Leslie_S> anyway, so basically i could have used soem fabric instead of the key to start the boat
2008-01-13 01:37 < FastLizard4> X-D
2008-01-13 01:37 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, the most retarded part was when i got back to the car and realized i left the keys fro the car in the boat.
2008-01-13 01:38 < FastLizard4> ...
2008-01-13 01:38 < Leslie_S> and i had my boat illegally parked during this whole time too, because i drifted too far away from the launch to get to it easily.
2008-01-13 01:38 < Leslie_S> it was beached right next to a big sign saying "PRIVATE BEACH: NO TRESSPASSING"
2008-01-13 01:38 < FastLizard4> X-D
2008-01-13 01:39 < FastLizard4> Did you get caught?
2008-01-13 01:39 < Leslie_S> i figured that my situation was sufficient to warrant this.
2008-01-13 01:39 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, they wouldnt have done anything
2008-01-13 01:39 < FastLizard4> I presume that you eventually got the key, however
2008-01-13 01:39 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, thats like if i put a no tress passing sign on the edge of my property, next to the road, and try to get someone arrested for having a flat tire on the side of the road...
2008-01-13 01:39 < SNORLAX> I bet Schroeder would rather you die than tresspass
2008-01-13 01:39 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, yes, after wading back through 500 feet of cold water.
2008-01-13 01:40 < Schroeder> SNORLAX: that would be the proper course of action, yes
2008-01-13 01:40 < SNORLAX> ah, libertarians
2008-01-13 01:40 < FastLizard4> In a space of 10 minutes, Leslie_S sent me precisely 21 lines prefixed with my nickname from 22:23 to 22:33 PST
2008-01-13 01:42 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, so? i'd want you to do the same thing to me if im talking to you.
2008-01-13 01:42 < FastLizard4> The streak of Leslie_S's messages was broken at 22:34 PST when Paine sent me a message reading "Leslie_S: you've started your last nine lines with "Fastlizard4," going to make it an even 10?"
2008-01-13 01:42 < Leslie_S> FastLizard4, your a moron.
2008-01-13 01:42 < SNORLAX> sent you a message?
2008-01-13 01:42 < Leslie_S> who the hell keeps these kind of statistics?
2008-01-13 01:43 < FastLizard4> sent the channel a message
2008-01-13 01:43 < Paine> Leslie_S: it's "you're"
2008-01-13 01:43 * FastLizard4 gives a {{subst:smile}} to SNORLAX
2008-01-13 01:43 < Leslie_S> Paine, fuck off. i know how to spell it. i left out two characters, im so damn sorry.
2008-01-13 01:43 < SNORLAX> that template is worse than [[glomp]]
2008-01-13 01:43 < FastLizard4> :-S
2008-01-13 01:43 < Paine> meh, pet peeeve.
2008-01-13 01:43 < Leslie_S> Paine, it was an accident and its almost 2am, so im sooo tired.
2008-01-13 01:43 < Leslie_S> Paine, if you notice, i almost always spell that correctly.
2008-01-13 01:44 < Paine> well sorry for not being sympathetic to your lack of sleep, considering it's almost 7am here and insomnia is a twat.
2008-01-13 01:44 * FastLizard4 labels Paine a Grammar Nazi

2008-01-13 01:48 < Paine> …
2008-01-13 01:48 < Paine> give it a rest.

2008-01-13 03:31 < mindspillage> Hey, "woot" was Merriam-Webster's 2007 word of the year.
2008-01-13 03:31 < Cyrius> yeah, and that was dumb =)
2008-01-13 03:32 < mindspillage> well, yes. I'm trying to imagine the meeting where that was decided. :-)
2008-01-13 03:32 < The359> the meeting was held in IRC

2008-01-13 05:44 < seria-mau> is there a quick and easy way to get list of the names of all articles and forwards from wikipedia? i want to try to use that with privoxy, spicing up my html with some automagic links
2008-01-13 05:46 < Cyrius> even if there was an easy way, it'd still be a huge file
2008-01-13 05:46 < seria-mau> i think of sth that i can easily import into a database like *sql
2008-01-13 05:46 < seria-mau> hmm
2008-01-13 05:46 < seria-mau> how many entries?

2008-01-13 07:20 < p858snake> anyway, just wait and it will get deleted as a orphan picture anyway wont it?
2008-01-13 07:20 < DannyLilithborne> that's the most ridiculous petition i've ever seen
2008-01-13 07:20 < Luna-San> "random upload, user's only edit, copyright concerns, unlikely to see any use ever..."
2008-01-13 07:20 < geniice> Luna-San eh I was looking for a shortcut since I've got about 100 images to list on PUI
2008-01-13 07:21 < DannyLilithborne> oh noez disrespect 2 islam D:
2008-01-13 07:21 < Luna-San> [[WP:ROGUE]] is an easy shortcut. Or [[WP:SNOW]] if you prefer.
2008-01-13 07:21 < geniice> Luna-San not an admin
2008-01-13 07:21 < White_Cat> Luna-San how was the nap?
2008-01-13 07:21 < Luna-San> Oooh. Want me to do it, then?
2008-01-13 07:21 < Luna-San> White_Cat: Delicious. >.>
2008-01-13 07:22 < Rinn> Rouge admins? Are they red?
2008-01-13 07:22 < White_Cat> <.< so precious...
2008-01-13 07:22 < White_Cat> Rouge admins are black
2008-01-13 07:22 < White_Cat> no colors just pitch plack
2008-01-13 07:22 < White_Cat> well
2008-01-13 07:22 < White_Cat> they are painted black
2008-01-13 07:22 < Rinn> Then why are they called rouge admins?
2008-01-13 07:22 < Scott5114> Intentional misspelling of 'rogue'
2008-01-13 07:23 < White_Cat> because they leave paw prints
2008-01-13 07:23 < Luna-San> For great justice, of course.
2008-01-13 07:24 < Scott5114> To make fun of those who foam at the mouth at a reasonable admin action and type out a protest so fast they misspell 'rogue', I assume
2008-01-13 07:24 * Drunken_Idiot gives a bath to White_Cat ( I wear swiming trunks) .
2008-01-13 07:24 < Lycurgus_> has anyone noted the fact that the POTD depicts a homosexual act?
2008-01-13 07:25 < Scott5114> Yellow-throated Scrubwrens are homosexual?
2008-01-13 07:25 < Scott5114> oh
2008-01-13 07:25 < Scott5114> oh god
2008-01-13 07:26 < Luna-San> Ah, since they're both drones?
2008-01-13 07:26 < Drunken_Idiot> Whats wrong with being gay?
2008-01-13 07:26 < Lycurgus> drone = male bee
2008-01-13 07:26 < White_Cat> drone = borg
2008-01-13 07:26 < White_Cat> doesnt have to be male
2008-01-13 07:26 < Drunken_Idiot> can be trans even
2008-01-13 07:26 < Drunken_Idiot> trans-sexual
2008-01-13 07:27 < White_Cat> well
2008-01-13 07:27 < Lycurgus> in nature? nothing. In some backward skanks minds? plenty.
2008-01-13 07:27 < White_Cat> the colective terminates defective drones
2008-01-13 07:27 < geniice> grovey there is a bid from germany for wikimania. People please have spiderman costumes at the ready there is somke climbing to do
2008-01-13 07:27 < Luna-San> I think it's key that these are flies, rather than bees.
2008-01-13 07:27 < Scott5114> Interesting that homosexual bees exist
2008-01-13 07:27 < Scott5114> oh, they're flies?
2008-01-13 07:27 < Luna-San> "The adult fly that emerges from the pupa is harmless. It looks somewhat like a drone honey bee, and likely gains some degree of protection from this resemblance to a stinging insect. The adults are called drone flies because of this resemblance."
2008-01-13 07:28 < Luna-San> from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eristalis_tenax
2008-01-13 07:28 < White_Cat> geniice I want the next wikimania to either be ion ocenia or soulth america
2008-01-13 07:28 < White_Cat> or antarctica
2008-01-13 07:28 < Lycurgus> homosexualitys is observed in almost every species where it's been looked for. There are lists by animal category in en wp.
2008-01-13 07:29 < SNORLAX> snorlaxes ain't gay!
2008-01-13 07:29 < Luna-San> But Dumbledore is.
2008-01-13 07:29 < Formentar> Luna-San: Or was.
2008-01-13 07:30 < Scott5114> I missed having the governor of Missouri shouting at me when I woke up in the morning. It's good to be back.
2008-01-13 07:30 < Scott5114> (on the radio)
2008-01-13 07:30 < Luna-San> True
2008-01-13 07:31 < White_Cat> Snorlax: It stops eating only to sleep. It doesn't feel full unless it eats nearly 900 pounds a day.
2008-01-13 07:32 < White_Cat> Snorlax's typical day consists of nothing more than eating and sleeping. It is such a docile Pokémon that there are children who use its expansive belly as a place to play.
2008-01-13 07:32 < White_Cat> SNORLAX is docile
2008-01-13 07:35 < Lycurgus> if they're as good as bees as pollinators maybe they could be used agriculturally
2008-01-13 07:36 < Drunken_Idiot> Bye Folks
2008-01-13 07:36 < Weaselosaurus> what a weird FA
2008-01-13 07:38 < Weaselosaurus> "After the match, a UEFA spokesman accused Liverpool of having the worst fans in Europe, a claim later denied by UEFA president Michel Platini."
2008-01-13 07:38 < Weaselosaurus> Heysel...
2008-01-13 07:39 < geniice> eh I remember that
2008-01-13 07:39 < geniice> candidat for worst pic ever
2008-01-13 07:39 < geniice> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Rhydian_Roberts_at_the_premiere_of_The_Golden_Compass.jpg
2008-01-13 07:40 < White_Cat> Lycurgus you do not use a snorlax as a pollinator
2008-01-13 07:40 < Weaselosaurus> the grain to end all grains
2008-01-13 07:40 < White_Cat> because in no time there will be nothing to pollinate
2008-01-13 07:41 < Weaselosaurus> I mean, Platini might have remembered Heysel, where he played Liverpool with Juventus and there *were* fan-caused problems
2008-01-13 07:41 < Weaselosaurus> to still deny what someone else said is extraordinary
2008-01-13 07:43 < geniice> hmmp why do our uploaders create such messy copyright situations?
2008-01-13 07:43 < geniice> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:RachelCaine.jpg
2008-01-13 07:44 < Lycurgus> because the world-wide socialist revolution that would obviate copyright issues on the internet hasn't yet occured
2008-01-13 07:45 < Lycurgus> that's one answer
2008-01-13 07:45 < Luna-San> geniice: What's messy about that? "It's totally cc-by-sa as long as only I use it."
2008-01-13 07:45 < geniice> Luna-San messy because I wil probably have to drag it trough PUI
2008-01-13 07:45 < geniice> Lycurgus norway has copyright
2008-01-13 07:47 < Lycurgus> geniice, so do most countries
2008-01-13 07:48 < Lycurgus> WP servers are in US though so US law, FL specifically is the primary applicable jurisdiction
2008-01-13 07:49 < Lycurgus> unless WMF is incorporated someplace else, which I doubt
2008-01-13 07:49 < arcimboldo_> Hm. That Rhydian Roberts photographer has the same camera that I have ... I wonder how he managed that.
2008-01-13 07:50 < arcimboldo_> Unless it is a picture of a photograph in a journal ...
2008-01-13 07:52 < arcimboldo_> Category:Images of people replacing placeholders - what are people replacing placeholders?
2008-01-13 07:53 < Scott5114> Click the category and find out. :P
2008-01-13 07:54 < arcimboldo_> "This is a "tracking category", a category intended to build and maintain a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. Rather than being part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme, these categories are used to track, for example, the use of syntaxes that may be deprecated in the future,"..
2008-01-13 07:54 < arcimboldo_> I'm not getting it ...
2008-01-13 07:55 < Scott5114> arcimboldo_: Okay, this will take a bit of effort to explain
2008-01-13 07:56 < arcimboldo_> Ok, it's probably not worth it ...
2008-01-13 07:56 < Scott5114> Basically, we can't use fair-use images for living people
2008-01-13 07:56 < p858snake> there pictures that are designed to replace those "do you have a free..." pictures but they get there copyright status checked
2008-01-13 07:57 < Scott5114> because they can still theoretically be photographed by someone willing to license the image freely, or the person themselves may be willing to get a free image made...
2008-01-13 07:58 < Scott5114> so I suppose that cat tracks the placeholders
2008-01-13 07:59 < arcimboldo_> ok, I understand it better. Although I am not sure whether those placeholders are worth the effort ...
2008-01-13 07:59 < Scott5114> well, I think it has to do with the foundation saying we can't use fair-use images of living people or something like that.
2008-01-13 08:00 < Scott5114> Not really clear on the history of things like that
2008-01-13 08:00 < arcimboldo_> Wouldn't it be easier to have a default name for a person's first free image?
2008-01-13 08:00 < arcimboldo_> For Peter Miller it could be Peter Miller.jpg
2008-01-13 08:00 < arcimboldo_> Or Peter Miller Free.jpg
2008-01-13 08:01 < arcimboldo_> Since Peter Miller.jpg may be blocked by a fair use image on enWiki.
2008-01-13 08:02 < Scott5114> well, you have to remember most free images go to commons
2008-01-13 08:02 < Scott5114> and some other wikipedias ban fair-use images outright (like German Wikipedia)
2008-01-13 08:03 < Scott5114> but I think uploading a bunch of placeholders would probably take so long the cat is a better option
2008-01-13 08:05 < arcimboldo_> Yep, that default name should be a commons image ...

2008-01-13 08:37 * soufron hello
2008-01-13 08:40 < jemfinch> if I find text on a wikipedia article that's plagiarized from another source, is there a special deletion procedure for that?
2008-01-13 08:44 < geniice> jemfinch {{db-copyvio|url=}}
2008-01-13 08:44 < Reedy_Boy> You can tag it for speedy deletion as a copyright violation/verbatim copy of somewhere else
2008-01-13 08:44 < Reedy_Boy> yeah, that^
2008-01-13 08:45 < jemfinch> it's only one section of a very long article
2008-01-13 08:45 < jemfinch> so I don't want to flag the whole article for deletion, I just want to remove this section.
2008-01-13 08:46 < jemfinch> (it's also clear POV text taken from a doctrinal defense unique to particular religious sect)
2008-01-13 08:46 < bishonen> jemfinch, are you sure it's not the other way about? what's the source?
2008-01-13 08:46 < geniice> arcimboldo_ the polaceholder system recomends Peter Miller in 1997.jpg
2008-01-13 08:46 < jemfinch> source is an paper published on byu.edu
2008-01-13 08:47 < bishonen> aha
2008-01-13 08:47 < jemfinch> by a professor at the Maxwell institute.
2008-01-13 08:47 < jemfinch> so I doubt it's the other way around :)
2008-01-13 08:47 < bishonen> sounds like we're the violators, then.
2008-01-13 08:47 < geniice> arcimboldo_ there used to be an explantion at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Fromowner_documentation but it is a bit dated
2008-01-13 08:47 < jemfinch> so should I tag the section for removal, or just remove the whole section? There are maybe 4 sentences of unique text in this section.
2008-01-13 08:48 < geniice> link?
2008-01-13 08:48 < bishonen> well, i'd remove it, but then I'm wellknown for disruptiveness.
2008-01-13 08:49 < jemfinch> geniice: are you asking me?
2008-01-13 08:49 < geniice> yes
