2008-02-03 09:26 < Lubaf> Sfan00: I sometimes ask "Anyway. \n How's *", where '*' is a random string that evaluates to "life" when read carefully, and utter nonsense when read literally.
2008-02-03 09:26 < Lubaf> For example:
2008-02-03 09:26 < Lubaf> Anyway.
2008-02-03 09:26 < Lubaf> How's file?

2008-02-03 10:08 < White_Cat> Leslie_S you could edit chickepedia
2008-02-03 10:08 < Leslie_S> White_Cat id rather not
2008-02-03 10:09 < Leslie_S> ...for their superbowl parties. left that part off.
2008-02-03 10:09 < White_Cat> superbowls are fun if you are watching something else
2008-02-03 10:09 * White_Cat watches the daily show coverage of the superbowl
2008-02-03 10:10 < Sfan00> White_Cat: being in the UK , it's on at Midnight or something for me
2008-02-03 10:10 < Sfan00> :(

2008-02-03 10:10 < Sfan00> White_cat; Possibly :)
2008-02-03 10:10 < Leslie_S> they act like they care about conserving energy (obviously to save them money...), and do things like disabling vending machine lights
2008-02-03 10:10 < Sfan00> I'll have to check thier terms cover the UK
2008-02-03 10:11 < White_Cat> Leslie_S WalMart has gone green like the stars of holywood with humeers
2008-02-03 10:11 < Sfan00> Leslie_S: LOL
2008-02-03 10:11 < Leslie_S> and then they have freezers in the back room that have to be below -10 degrees F, but their usually at -40F
2008-02-03 10:11 < Leslie_S> or less
2008-02-03 10:11 < White_Cat> Leslie_S mmmm
2008-02-03 10:11 < Sfan00> Actually WalMart going green is more expensive initally then people realise
2008-02-03 10:11 < Leslie_S> ive seen the freezer thermometer *pegged*, and it only goes down to -40 F...
2008-02-03 10:11 < White_Cat> you ever worked in walmart?

2008-02-03 10:12 < Mike_H> I love Wikinews
2008-02-03 10:12 < Mike_H> they were preparing an article on the Super Bowl
2008-02-03 10:12 < Mike_H> and I had to move it
2008-02-03 10:12 < Mike_H> <Mike_H> (Super Bowl XVII moved to Super Bowl XLII: Moving to Super Bowl 42. Super Bowl 17 happened in 1983.) (undo)
2008-02-03 10:13 < Leslie_S> LOL
2008-02-03 10:14 < White_Cat> Mike2 I like it when the 50th superbowl comes around
2008-02-03 10:14 < Sfan00> So you get the hassle of having to work a weekend :(
2008-02-03 10:14 < White_Cat> L
2008-02-03 10:14 < Sfan00> That must hurt Leslie_S
2008-02-03 10:14 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 yes. EVERY WEEKEND. starting to piss me off.
2008-02-03 10:14 < Leslie_S> they told me i'd have to work weekends in the interview, but they didnt say EVERY weeken
2008-02-03 10:15 < Sfan00> You have a union?
2008-02-03 10:15 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 .....................i work for the most anti-union company on earth.
2008-02-03 10:15 < White_Cat> Leslie_S Union
2008-02-03 10:15 < White_Cat> Leslie_S you could use the Union
2008-02-03 10:15 < Leslie_S> ....
2008-02-03 10:15 < White_Cat> Like the State of Union
2008-02-03 10:15 < Leslie_S> .....
2008-02-03 10:15 < Sfan00> One assume you get paid fr working weekends
2008-02-03 10:16 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 I get an extra dollar an hour on sundays. weekends are my regularly scheduled days though, i get other days off for "weekends"
2008-02-03 10:16 < Leslie_S> so i make almost $10 an hour on sundays...
2008-02-03 10:16 < Leslie_S> :P
2008-02-03 10:17 < Sfan00> Thats quite good compared to UK minimum wage
2008-02-03 10:17 < Leslie_S> i dont make minimum wage.
2008-02-03 10:17 < Leslie_S> and heh, you know what makes me laugh is the State of the State... :P
2008-02-03 10:17 < Sfan00> Isn't UK minimum wage something like 5 GBP ? Now
2008-02-03 10:18 < Sfan00> ?
2008-02-03 10:18 < White_Cat> Sfan00 no
2008-02-03 10:18 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 5 GBP is $10.....
2008-02-03 10:18 < White_Cat> you get payed over twice the money if you work in the wekends
2008-02-03 10:18 < Sfan00> So whats the fedral minimum wage in the US compared to the UK one?
2008-02-03 10:18 < White_Cat> in belgium for example weekend pay is so high that you wont find a single soree open in the weekends especialy sunday
2008-02-03 10:18 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 federal is still like $5. michigan is $7.15 though.
2008-02-03 10:19 < White_Cat> furthermore after 5 oclock its night pay
2008-02-03 10:19 < Leslie_S> ..heh, damn.
2008-02-03 10:19 < Sfan00> White_Cat: That maybe so in Europe
2008-02-03 10:19 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 isnt britain *in* europe?
2008-02-03 10:19 < Sfan00> In the UK , overtime seems to be a dying concept
2008-02-03 10:19 < Leslie_S> sigh, you guys dont even get it.
2008-02-03 10:19 < White_Cat> in addition even on nato bases where work lasts till 6 they get to work as late as 6 but not a second more
2008-02-03 10:19 < Sfan00> Leslie_S: Continental Europe
2008-02-03 10:19 < Leslie_S> i don't work overtime at walmart.
2008-02-03 10:19 < Leslie_S> when i work weekends, its NOT OVERTIME.
2008-02-03 10:19 < White_Cat> Leslie_S I recomend you move to belgium
2008-02-03 10:20 < White_Cat> Leslie_S weekends are overtime in europe
2008-02-03 10:20 < Sfan00> Still?
2008-02-03 10:20 < Leslie_S> even if you dont work during the week?
2008-02-03 10:20 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 .....i work 4 days a week.
2008-02-03 10:20 < Leslie_S> two weekend days and two weekdays.
2008-02-03 10:20 < Sfan00> Ah...
2008-02-03 10:20 < Leslie_S> duh
2008-02-03 10:20 < Sfan00> So you do get two days off in a week :)
2008-02-03 10:20 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 no, i get three.
2008-02-03 10:20 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 i tried to tell you this earlier.
2008-02-03 10:21 < Sfan00> That's better than some people :)
2008-02-03 10:21 < Leslie_S> if i had to work 7 days a week, i would have quit on the 8th day.
2008-02-03 10:21 < Sfan00> LOL
2008-02-03 10:21 < Leslie_S> besides, walmart has very strict anti-overtime policies.
2008-02-03 10:21 < Sfan00> Somebosy i used to know once worked an 8-hour shift
2008-02-03 10:21 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 i work a 9 hour shift. (8 hours paid)
2008-02-03 10:21 < Sfan00> everye day for about 6 months
2008-02-03 10:21 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 omg.
2008-02-03 10:22 < Sfan00> He eventually had a 'breakdown'
2008-02-03 10:22 < Sfan00> :(
2008-02-03 10:22 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 by the way, overtime in the US is time and a half.
2008-02-03 10:22 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 and heh, yesterday i had a dipshit friend try to tell me that time and a half with $8 is $16. seriously, WTF?
2008-02-03 10:22 < Sfan00> LOL
2008-02-03 10:22 < Leslie_S> i successfully explained to her that its $12...
2008-02-03 10:22 < Sfan00> Like DUH!
2008-02-03 10:23 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 now, we do hafve double time, where if you work 7 days straight, starting on the 8th day you get paid double, until you get a day off...
2008-02-03 10:23 < White_Cat> Leslie_S yes even if you work only in the weekends
2008-02-03 10:23 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 so once you work over 7 days in a row, you try to work as many as possible... :P
2008-02-03 10:23 < White_Cat> tho you would have a hard time getting hired like that
2008-02-03 10:23 < Leslie_S> White_Cat heh!
2008-02-03 10:24 < White_Cat> since most stores are closed in weekends for that very reason
2008-02-03 10:24 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 at my old job, this meant some people were making like $50/hour
2008-02-03 10:24 * triona didn't think double time was mandatory...
2008-02-03 10:24 < Leslie_S> triona i dont know, but its sure a good incentive for doing overtime..
2008-02-03 10:24 < triona> thought it was usually a union thing
2008-02-03 10:24 < Leslie_S> triona the company i worked at that did that was NOT union, at all.
2008-02-03 10:24 < Leslie_S> triona they werent anti union like walmart either though, but..
2008-02-03 10:25 < Leslie_S> triona and it was a company where about half of the workers made like $20/hour regularly.
2008-02-03 10:26 < Leslie_S> anyway, im working on getting out of walmart.
2008-02-03 10:26 < Sfan00> Off to college?
2008-02-03 10:26 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 seriously, wtf? you know im IN college
2008-02-03 10:26 < Sfan00> I meant fulltime?
2008-02-03 10:26 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 that will never work.
2008-02-03 10:27 < White_Cat> Leslie_S is like the breating example why us education is so f***ed
2008-02-03 10:27 < Leslie_S> i cant stand living with my parents, so im moving out in spring.

2008-02-03 10:28 < NotACow> Sfan00: i thought that was what wikipedia did.

2008-02-03 10:47 < autocracy> Messedrocker: glad you have the energy for those flying vaginas now??
2008-02-03 10:48 * autocracy stretches
2008-02-03 10:48 < autocracy> i see Leslie_S' grep-foo is high today
2008-02-03 10:48 < Sfan00> "The text is strong in this one..."
2008-02-03 10:48 < Sfan00> ;)
2008-02-03 10:49 < White_Cat> Leslie_S " <Leslie_S> why does education in the US have to be such a joke?"
2008-02-03 10:49 < White_Cat> well
2008-02-03 10:49 < White_Cat> capitalism
2008-02-03 10:49 < White_Cat> :P
2008-02-03 10:49 < White_Cat> communism doesnt work
2008-02-03 10:49 < White_Cat> and since capitalism doesnt also
2008-02-03 10:49 < White_Cat> nor fascism
2008-02-03 10:49 < autocracy> White_Cat: i say... current education is communistic
2008-02-03 10:49 < White_Cat> I dono what will work?
2008-02-03 10:50 < White_Cat> you pay not in communism
2008-02-03 10:50 < autocracy> without economic need, we collectively feed a bunch of people who would otherwise have to do something more useful ;)
2008-02-03 10:50 < White_Cat> yes but they pay for it
2008-02-03 10:51 < autocracy> White_Cat: FAFSA
2008-02-03 10:51 < White_Cat> FAFSA is a lie
2008-02-03 10:51 < autocracy> .... for the lucky :-/
2008-02-03 10:51 < White_Cat> there is no such thing as lucky in communism
2008-02-03 10:51 < autocracy> ugh. i'm done.
2008-02-03 10:53 < White_Cat> did you know ugh is somewhat a traditional native american greeitng?
2008-02-03 10:53 < Messedrocker> grr! i know you're somewhere, varia suit!
2008-02-03 10:53 < White_Cat> I am no suit
2008-02-03 10:53 < White_Cat> this tie I am wearing is merely a mirage
2008-02-03 10:54 < Messedrocker> so you're in a birthday suit
2008-02-03 10:54 < White_Cat> no
2008-02-03 10:54 < White_Cat> a tanuki suit
2008-02-03 10:54 * White_Cat turns into a stone statue
2008-02-03 10:56 < cimon> Messedrocker: the technical term for a birthday suit is a nonakini
2008-02-03 10:57 < Messedrocker> i thought that was a 9-part bathing suit
2008-02-03 10:59 < White_Cat> Messedrocker it may very well be used for that purpose
2008-02-03 10:59 < White_Cat> people use underwear as swiming suits and call it a bikini
2008-02-03 10:59 < White_Cat> Messedrocker have you ever seena bikini up close
2008-02-03 10:59 < White_Cat> like really close

2008-02-03 11:00 < White_Cat> Messedrocker anything can be used as a bathing suit
2008-02-03 11:00 < White_Cat> people take showers without them as well
2008-02-03 11:01 < Leslie_S> i take showers in a nonokini
2008-02-03 11:01 < SPUI> I take showers in a bathtub

2008-02-03 11:02 < White_Cat> Pilotguy btw were you following that highway discussion thing?
2008-02-03 11:02 < Pilotguy> negative
2008-02-03 11:02 < White_Cat> (now that I had your attention I might as well ask)
2008-02-03 11:02 < cimon> Messedrocker: a nine part swimsuite would be an enneakini
2008-02-03 11:02 < White_Cat> oh its infront of arbcom
2008-02-03 11:02 < White_Cat> I never heard of it

2008-02-03 11:04 < Kjoonlee> Has the miniskirt ever been gone? ;)
2008-02-03 11:04 < Mike_H> Kjoonlee: In couture fashion it has.
2008-02-03 11:05 < White_Cat> Kjoonlee well
2008-02-03 11:06 < White_Cat> in the case of some people they wore even less
2008-02-03 11:06 < eth01> The image “http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8f/Whole_world_-_land_and_oceans_12000.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.
2008-02-03 11:07 < fmmc> Aloha folks
2008-02-03 11:07 < eth01> yeah, that image is borked.
2008-02-03 11:08 < Kjoonlee> eth01: it's 20 megs

2008-02-03 11:08 < fmmc> Hmm, that did not work, hehe
2008-02-03 11:12 < Fabexplosive> hello
2008-02-03 11:22 * ALLSTARecho hands fmmc a /
2008-02-03 11:24 < eth01> Kjoonlee, and...?
2008-02-03 11:24 < Kjoonlee> eth01: the image page says that web browsers are likely to barf over the image
2008-02-03 11:25 < Kjoonlee> eth01: so it's Firefox which is borked, not the image
2008-02-03 11:30 < Leslie_S> why the hell is that picture 20 megs?
2008-02-03 11:32 < Sfan00> Anyone interetsed in films - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:ShakespeareFan00/Film_List ?
2008-02-03 11:34 < White_Cat> you were shakespere fan?
2008-02-03 11:34 < White_Cat> hah!
2008-02-03 11:34 < White_Cat> I never knew to date
2008-02-03 11:34 < Cyrius> Leslie_S: because it's a 24000x12000 pixel image of the Earth
2008-02-03 11:35 < Cyrius> specifically scaled to fit under the 20 MB upload limit =)
2008-02-03 11:36 < Leslie_S> why so big?
2008-02-03 11:37 < White_Cat> Cyrius oh

2008-02-03 11:37 < White_Cat> on commons I hold the record of uploading the largest image with his help
2008-02-03 11:38 < White_Cat> Leslie_S commons is a freely licensed image repository
2008-02-03 11:38 < White_Cat> it can be used for other purposes
2008-02-03 11:38 < Leslie_S> White_Cat thanks for telling me the obvious
2008-02-03 11:38 < White_Cat> like in games
2008-02-03 11:38 < White_Cat> if the game allows a zoom in for example
2008-02-03 11:38 < Leslie_S> ............................................................
2008-02-03 11:38 < DannyLilithborne> the fuck
2008-02-03 11:38 < SinSeer> also good for printing, if the dpi is high enough
2008-02-03 11:39 < Leslie_S> why the fuck are games storing their data on commons?
2008-02-03 11:39 < Messedrocker> hello alkiseltzer
2008-02-03 11:39 < SinSeer> ;)
2008-02-03 11:39 < DannyLilithborne> how does she keep getting off my mute list
2008-02-03 11:39 < Leslie_S> anyway, 20mb isnt too bad, but.... more? why?
2008-02-03 11:39 < Leslie_S> DannyLilithborne who?
2008-02-03 11:39 < SinSeer> i regularly work with images in the hundreds of megs... 20mb is teenyweeny

2008-02-03 11:40 < SinSeer> see above
2008-02-03 11:40 < Leslie_S> SinSeer do you work in pre-press?
2008-02-03 11:40 < shimgray> oh, goodness, yes. high-quality scanning will easily knock you over 20mb
2008-02-03 11:41 < SinSeer> actually i have never checked out that commons, does it have many images of that high quality?
2008-02-03 11:41 < Leslie_S> SinSeer ....poke?
2008-02-03 11:41 < White_Cat> Leslie_S data on commons can be used in games
2008-02-03 11:41 * Leslie_S is curious
2008-02-03 11:41 < White_Cat> thats all I am saying
2008-02-03 11:41 < SinSeer> ain't polite to poke
2008-02-03 11:41 < Leslie_S> White_Cat .....

2008-02-03 11:43 < Messedrocker> Cyrius, from beginning to end

2008-02-03 11:44 < Cyrius> Messedrocker: to fully beat the game, you see the ending like 4 times
2008-02-03 11:44 < Leslie_S> Sfan00 miranda and other trolls, freenode staff not caring about her and other trolls, etc.
2008-02-03 11:45 < Leslie_S> gurch is that a good kind of hug?
2008-02-03 11:45 < Messedrocker> Cyrius, from the beginning to the post-60-stars bowser fight, methinks
2008-02-03 11:45 < Cyrius> that's not a _full_ run =)
2008-02-03 11:45 < gurch> Leslie_S: yes
2008-02-03 11:45 < gurch> lol miranda
2008-02-03 11:46 < White_Cat> Ceiling_Cat
2008-02-03 11:46 < Cyrius> full would be 242 stars
2008-02-03 11:46 < White_Cat> would you object to a non discussion removal of a former featured article?
2008-02-03 11:46 * gurch objects
2008-02-03 11:46 < gurch> dear me there are a lot of cats in here
2008-02-03 11:47 < Leslie_S> every fucking time i talk, she bitches about me "complaining about personal issues", "blogging to the channel", etc, no matter what im talking about. and she'll demand that i ignore her, and then evade the ignores after i do ignore her, etc.
2008-02-03 11:47 < Messedrocker> Cyrius, it's not a 100% speed run, it's a time attack
2008-02-03 11:47 < Leslie_S> and theres a LOT of people just like her around here, and nobody gives a shit.
2008-02-03 11:47 < Cyrius> yeah, but you called it a "full speed run"
2008-02-03 11:47 < gurch> indeed
2008-02-03 11:47 < gurch> lol @ miranda, though. she's harmless
2008-02-03 11:47 < Ceiling_Cat> Leslie_S - who?
2008-02-03 11:48 < Leslie_S> gurch she pisses me the fuck off.

2008-02-03 11:48 < Leslie_S> White_Cat if windows had a grep, i'd show you.
2008-02-03 11:49 < White_Cat> Leslie_S I need not see a log on miranda
2008-02-03 11:49 < White_Cat> I have seen her troll
2008-02-03 11:49 < Leslie_S> gurch shes the only one thats currently an issue.
2008-02-03 11:49 < White_Cat> remember that signature dispute involving me
2008-02-03 11:49 < gurch> isn't she banned from here anyway?
2008-02-03 11:49 < Leslie_S> White_Cat if i could grep my logs for "miranda sending a message with the word leslie_s in it", ....
2008-02-03 11:49 < Leslie_S> gurch in here probably. shes everywhere else though.
2008-02-03 11:49 < White_Cat> Leslie_S you actualy can
2008-02-03 11:49 < eth01> put her on ignore, Leslie, she's a well known troll.
2008-02-03 11:50 < Leslie_S> eth01 she evades it.
2008-02-03 11:50 * gurch points to the ignore button
2008-02-03 11:50 < White_Cat> Find all files with the word miranda in it
2008-02-03 11:50 * gurch would never ignore miranda, though
2008-02-03 11:50 < White_Cat> gurch because you are a troll like her
2008-02-03 11:50 < Leslie_S> eth01 anyway, i just dont want to be around the sort of place that allows people like that to be around.
2008-02-03 11:50 < gurch> lol
2008-02-03 11:50 < White_Cat> Leslie_S tag along on a different channel
2008-02-03 11:50 < Leslie_S> and i cant think of any other trolls at the moment because im too pissed off at that one. :P
2008-02-03 11:50 < gurch> Leslie_S: I think you'll find that's called the "internet"
2008-02-03 11:50 < White_Cat> #wikipedia-en -ar

I only ever came to freenode to use #wikipedia, and i dont even use wikipedia anymore. i come here to talk to people i know from wikipedia, and i get bitched at for that too. and most of these friends are no longer friends, so theres only a few of them i actually talk to.

2008-02-03 11:54 < Leslie_S> White_Cat im 3 years old in september.
2008-02-03 11:54 < White_Cat> I am older than you?

2008-02-03 11:55 < Leslie_S> White_Cat actually, wait...not september...thats my REAL birthday...its more like june.
2008-02-03 11:55 < White_Cat> you can ignore people I am not allowed to tho
2008-02-03 11:55 < Leslie_S> I'm surprised anyone in this channel actually wants me around.
2008-02-03 11:55 < White_Cat> I ignored kelly and that nearly got me banned
2008-02-03 11:55 < Leslie_S> meh

2008-02-03 11:55 < White_Cat> Leslie_S its just that most people here idles
2008-02-03 11:55 < gurch> did you know "miranda" is an anagram of "in drama"?
2008-02-03 11:55 < White_Cat> people like gurch for example first create drama and then complain about it
2008-02-03 11:55 < gurch> :O
2008-02-03 11:56 < Leslie_S> and hey, whatever happened to the new guidelines? where we cant say anything at all in this channel?>
2008-02-03 11:56 < White_Cat> as seen in the case of my arbcom candidacy
2008-02-03 11:56 < White_Cat> Leslie_S those were revoked
2008-02-03 11:56 < gurch> Leslie_S: well all the lurkers are following them
2008-02-03 11:56 < Leslie_S> i remember they wanted everything social in #wikipedia-social, and everything about wikipedia in #wikipedia-en, etc.
2008-02-03 11:56 < Leslie_S> and .....WTF was this channel for then?
2008-02-03 11:56 < gurch> drama
2008-02-03 11:56 < Leslie_S> anyway, thank god those are revoked.
2008-02-03 11:56 < gurch> obviously
2008-02-03 11:56 < triona> oh, there's a #wikipedia-social?
2008-02-03 11:56 * DannyLilithborne goes afk until the backpatting session is over o:
2008-02-03 11:56 < Leslie_S> I'm kinda sad that miranda is banned here.
2008-02-03 11:56 < Leslie_S> is it permanent?
2008-02-03 11:57 * gurch tries to form an anagram from Leslie_S
2008-02-03 11:57 < White_Cat> Leslie_S this channel is a troll heaven
2008-02-03 11:57 < Leslie_S> White_Cat yeah, thats why im surprised she's banned.
2008-02-03 11:57 < White_Cat> she isnt
2008-02-03 11:57 < White_Cat> not last time I checked
2008-02-03 11:57 < Leslie_S> i was trying to get her fired up the other day in here, when i was making my clients about miranda being a shitty client
2008-02-03 11:57 < Leslie_S> ;p
2008-02-03 11:57 < White_Cat> she gets herself banned from time to time
2008-02-03 11:58 < Snowolf> R_enwiki: third clone? O.o
2008-02-03 11:58 < White_Cat> Leslie_S you dont need to fire her up
2008-02-03 11:58 < gurch> LIE LESS
2008-02-03 11:58 < gurch> SEES ILL
2008-02-03 11:58 < Leslie_S> White_Cat i wanted to because i was pissed off at her.
2008-02-03 11:58 < gurch> no good ones :/
2008-02-03 11:58 < R_enwiki> Snowolf: shh
2008-02-03 11:58 < Leslie_S> and i meant comments, not clients :p
2008-02-03 11:58 * Not_the_NSA pokes Thedjatclubrock
2008-02-03 11:58 < Leslie_S> i hate my life ;/
2008-02-03 11:59 < gurch> indeed
2008-02-03 11:59 < gurch> apparently it is necessary for us to, too :/
2008-02-03 12:00 < Leslie_S> i have a choice to make soon. i can either continue transitioning at home with my parents, and go all the way, and deal with them, or i can move out and have freedom, but not enough money to do much transitioing
2008-02-03 12:00 < Leslie_S> :(
2008-02-03 12:00 * triona sighs and wishes her tax refund was here.
2008-02-03 12:00 < Leslie_S> and speaking of moving out, why is it that this one really shitty apartment complex has an application fee thats higher than one thats WAY nicer?
2008-02-03 12:01 < Leslie_S> anyway, im not really sure which to do. admittedly, moving will save me about $100/month in gas, but... ;/
2008-02-03 12:01 < White_Cat> Leslie_S I dont pay attention to trolls
2008-02-03 12:01 < Tony_Sidaway> White_Cat: hi
2008-02-03 12:01 < White_Cat> hello Tony_Sidaway
2008-02-03 12:01 < Leslie_S> (if i moved, i'd move to the town i work/school in, saving 20+ miles of commuting a day...and i go to that town 7 days a week!)
2008-02-03 12:01 < White_Cat> how can I help you today?
2008-02-03 12:02 < White_Cat> otherwise you could help me instead
2008-02-03 12:02 < Tony_Sidaway> White_Cat: didn't you have an arbitration case on the go?
2008-02-03 12:02 < White_Cat> Tony_Sidaway I dont have a case myself but there is a case I am nvolved in
2008-02-03 12:02 < Leslie_S> but strangely enough, my mom seems to not care as much about my gender bending.
2008-02-03 12:02 < White_Cat> tho I am not officialy and involved party
2008-02-03 12:02 < Tony_Sidaway> I'm always happy to help you out if I can.
2008-02-03 12:02 < White_Cat> Tony_Sidaway that would be great
2008-02-03 12:02 < Leslie_S> i highlighted my hair, got my ears pierced, and started using nail polish, and she hasnt said anything about it (but has commented on all of them)
2008-02-03 12:02 < White_Cat> hold on let me link you
2008-02-03 12:03 < White_Cat> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Episodes_and_characters_2
2008-02-03 12:03 < White_Cat> thats the case
2008-02-03 12:03 < Tony_Sidaway> Leslie_S: probably thinks it's a phase you're going through! :*)
2008-02-03 12:03 < Leslie_S> Tony_Sidaway a phase ive been going through for 3 years?
2008-02-03 12:03 < White_Cat> I am trying to collect evicence on TTN and et all disregarding afds
2008-02-03 12:03 < cimon> <smirk> @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytherean
2008-02-03 12:03 < Leslie_S> Tony_Sidaway ive been out to her and gender bending actively since early 2006.
2008-02-03 12:04 < White_Cat> there are examples of TTN disregarding a keep/non-consensus closures of afds
2008-02-03 12:04 < White_Cat> I would use the help of toolserv but thats down
2008-02-03 12:05 < Tony_Sidaway> White_Cat: that kind of evidence ay be useful, although I have to disclose a conflict of interest here. I am broadly on TTN's side in this, opinionwise.
2008-02-03 12:05 < gurch> hmmm
2008-02-03 12:05 < White_Cat> Tony_Sidaway I dont think you are
2008-02-03 12:05 < Tony_Sidaway> But that won't affect the advice I can give you on procedure and evidence.
2008-02-03 12:05 < White_Cat> I dont believe you support mass removal of articles even former featured articles without a discussion
2008-02-03 12:06 < White_Cat> and revert war on them to keep them as redirects
2008-02-03 12:06 < gurch> can I claim to have "written a GA" if I made a minor change, nominated it for GA, and it passed?
2008-02-03 12:06 < Tony_Sidaway> White_Cat: no I don't support that, and if you have evidence of that it's important to collect it and present it well.
2008-02-03 12:06 < White_Cat> Tony_Sidaway my complaint is less about the mass redirectification of articles and more about the method people are doing it
2008-02-03 12:06 < White_Cat> Tony_Sidaway however I am having difficulty collecting evidence on my own
2008-02-03 12:07 < White_Cat> and people know I am biased towards inclusionism so my evidence will be seen as biased
2008-02-03 12:07 < White_Cat> thats why if a neutral or even pro-deletion party collected the evidence it would be best
2008-02-03 12:07 < Tony_Sidaway> If you're evidence is compelling it won't matter who gathers it.
2008-02-03 12:08 < NotACow> DEATH TO EVIDENCE
2008-02-03 12:08 * CMoreschi cheers NotACow
2008-02-03 12:08 < NotACow> Tony_Sidaway: keep drinking that kool-aid, dude.
2008-02-03 12:08 < Tony_Sidaway> And to be honest at this precise moment in time I think the arbitrators want to be able to pretend I don't exist for a few months, or possibly years.
2008-02-03 12:08 < Tony_Sidaway> me and the other parties to the IRC case.
2008-02-03 12:08 < CMoreschi> after all, as with apartheid, who needs factual evidence when we've got allegations?
2008-02-03 12:09 < White_Cat> Tony_Sidaway I dont know
2008-02-03 12:09 < White_Cat> I am generaly treated like the scum of the earth
2008-02-03 12:09 < Leslie_S> NotACow what do you think would happen if i went full time while livign with my parents? :P
2008-02-03 12:09 < White_Cat> I was suprised Jimbo didnt chase me with harlic and a holy cross
2008-02-03 12:09 < White_Cat> *garlic
2008-02-03 12:10 < Leslie_S> White_Cat hes a wiccan nazi, not a christian nutjob.
2008-02-03 12:10 < Tony_Sidaway> White_Cat: I think Jimbo broadly likes you. Maybe half and half.
2008-02-03 12:10 < White_Cat> Tony_Sidaway well he gave a "suprised" impression when he seen me :)
2008-02-03 12:11 < Tony_Sidaway> White_Cat: I myself am permanently surprised that you are still on Wikipedia and all the people who persecuted you have been banned. You have nine lives.
2008-02-03 12:11 < White_Cat> hah
2008-02-03 12:11 < Leslie_S> haha, they are banned?
2008-02-03 12:11 < White_Cat> you know I originaly placed that starcraft gag on my userpage as a lark
2008-02-03 12:11 < Tony_Sidaway> true the people who were banned have been replaced by more persecutors, but it bodes well.
2008-02-03 12:12 < White_Cat> yes well
2008-02-03 12:12 < Colt7r> obama rox
2008-02-03 12:12 < White_Cat> eventualism is the way to go as jimbo once said
2008-02-03 12:12 < Leslie_S> is it bad if i wear hoops after having my ears pierced for 3 weeks?
2008-02-03 12:12 < Tony_Sidaway> Eventualism isn't what it used to be, as I will say, eventually.
2008-02-03 12:12 < White_Cat> Tony_Sidaway currently eventualism isnt the method
