12:06 Wolfwood Oh sad little roach, using names of others.

12:07 Wolfwood Why must they allways choose the route of annoyance.

12:07 Wolfwood I don't want to crush them underfoot. I *LIKE* crushing them, but I don't want to.

12:08 Raihosha Who knows?

12:08 Wolfwood It saddens me slightly.

12:09 Raihosha There comes a point, when even I will say that they must be crushed.

12:09 Wolfwood We seem to possess a giant magnet that attracts the alpha-retarded of the internet brain-trust.

12:09 Wolfwood I have come to think Yaijinden has it in one of his many pockets.

12:10 Wolfwood Also I laugh because you are Xmas colors.

12:10 Raihosha When they abuse the rules to complain about their penance, meant to allow reflection and to correct their behavior, then they rapidly loose my sympathy.

12:10 Raihosha What, red?

12:10 Wolfwood red and green

12:11 Wolfwood you were a green for a moment

12:11 Wolfwood ...

12:11 Wolfwood desu.

12:11 Raihosha I don't see green, myself...

12:11 Wolfwood ::fu

12:11 Wolfwood but yes, I agree

12:13 Raihosha As the OP of the people, I see my role as speaking out for those who don't otherwise have an advocate. But, then, like Perry Mason, I won't defend clients who lie to me.

12:13 Wolfwood QFT

12:13 Raihosha QFT?

12:14 Wolfwood Quoted for truth

12:14 Raihosha AH.

12:14 Wolfwood I have more or less finished your little gift for tonights event.

12:15 Wolfwood All that is left is to upload it to Megaupload

12:15 Raihosha Ah, that's a second person plural "your"...

12:16 Wolfwood I am debateing adding a copy of the wiki article on the Kent State Shooting.

12:17 Raihosha Ah, Kent State, where we discovered what scared 18yr olds with guns can do, even if they ARE american soldiers.

12:17 Wolfwood Mostly from a moral standpoint.

12:17 Wolfwood My sister goes to Kent now.

12:18 Wolfwood I have yet to visit the rock and that part of the campus, as I do not know how I would feel.

12:19 Wolfwood Vietnam was not a millitary conflict America should have been in

12:20 Raihosha The 60s and early 70s were an odd time, from what I hear.

12:20 Wolfwood Notice I did not use the word "war".

12:20 Babelglyph but Rai

12:20 Wolfwood I would trade all I own to have lived in some measure in the 60's 70's and 80's.

12:21 Babelglyph "speaking out for those who don't otherwise have an advocate" is not the role of the op of the people.

12:21 Raihosha I wonder how things might have been different if we had taken the North Vietnamese side (as they did ask us), instead of stepping in for the French?

12:21 Babelglyph it's to collectively represent us.

12:21 Babelglyph and maybe that's what you meant, but to me

12:22 Raihosha Yes, starcat, but to collectivelly represent you, one has to speak out FOR EVERYONE.

12:22 Babelglyph no no

12:22 Babelglyph i have a continuation here

12:22 Babelglyph To me it seems like you play devil's advocate whenever the chance arises

12:22 Babelglyph which is not bad

12:22 Babelglyph but basically, it's also not what we hired you for...

12:24 Babelglyph I support the devil's advocate, but I don't think it should cross over with the op of the people.

12:25 Raihosha At this point, starcat, there hasn't been much call for the other side of "OP of the people".

12:26 Raihosha And I see that Devil's advocate and OP of the people DO go together.

12:27 Raihosha Otherwise, there is no one to speak out when there is lynch mob forming.

12:28 Shaldra o hay what's going on in this chat

12:28 Shaldra it looks interesting

12:28 Raihosha Hey shaldra.

12:28 Babelglyph speaking out against lynch mob forming isn't bad.

12:28 Wolfwood Afternoon Shal.

12:28 Babelglyph going "WAIT GUYS NOT ONLY IS THIS PERSON NOT GUILTY BUT HE IS A SAINT AND SHOULD BE WORSHIPPED" is...

12:28 Shaldra hahaha where have you been Raihosha we have needed so much OP help lately.

12:28 Babelglyph uh...yeah.

12:28 Babelglyph Also

12:28 Babelglyph Trolls?

12:28 Raihosha Starcat is disagreeing with my point of view on what an "OP of the people" does.

12:28 Babelglyph Trolls are kind of scourging us normal people.

12:29 Babelglyph We have no method of protection.

12:29 Babelglyph I can kick them out of the meebo room but that's it.

12:29 Shaldra I am going to be horribly blunt here for a moment.

12:29 Raihosha I have been exhausted by 10 hour work days.

12:29 Babelglyph and actually I don't remember seeing you in the latest blue thread although that might just be me forgetting

12:29 Babelglyph :/

12:29 Shaldra the OP of the people was made so that, if the chatboxers didn't want to come to a regular OP with problems, they could come to the public OP.

12:30 Raihosha I was there, starcat, only back at the beginning.

12:30 Shaldra because apparently the regular OPs are scary

12:30 Shaldra I am scary. Fear me.

12:30 Babelglyph shut up neesan 9_9

12:30 Babelglyph you're not scary 9_9

12:30 Shaldra never! I find it amusing people were scared of me!

12:30 Babelglyph i do not fear you!

12:31 Shaldra nooooo my plan fails!

12:31 Babelglyph muahahahahaha!

12:31 Raihosha THat doesn't seem to be the case anymore, SHaldra. ANd no one has come to me with a problem, so I have to find other things to do.

12:31 Wolfwood I choose to say nothing.

12:31 Babelglyph Rai

12:31 Shaldra dude

12:31 Babelglyph I have never, ever known HOW to contact you.

12:31 Shaldra let's put it this way man

12:31 Babelglyph I've never felt like you were open and approachable.

12:31 Shaldra even if you aren't asked to do things

12:31 Babelglyph You show up randomly and usually not at all in the main chatbox.

12:31 Shaldra you are still an OP

12:31 Raihosha Excuse me, but PMing on the forums is quite simple.

12:31 Shaldra and as such have a job to do

12:31 Babelglyph Yes. But.

12:31 Babelglyph for me?

12:31 Babelglyph PMs suck.

12:31 Babelglyph I don't like them.

12:32 Babelglyph They're not my first choice.

12:32 Shaldra just because you are the "op of the people" doesn't mean you are not meant to be an OP.

12:32 Babelglyph And as I said

12:32 Babelglyph you aren't "open and approachable"

12:32 Babelglyph You're hardly ever around. Why should I bother trying to get someone's attention if I don't even know when he'll read it?

12:32 Babelglyph There are other ops.

12:32 Shaldra woooooork @_@

12:33 Babelglyph and as a result neesan has done the vast majority of opwork in the past few months.

12:33 Shaldra trolls @_@ so many trolls @_@

12:33 Raihosha Yes, and I'm quite willing to accept that at the upcoming election.

12:33 Babelglyph Wolf has stepped up a little, but only in the past week or two.

12:33 Shaldra which I am thankful for THANK YOU AGAIN WOLF

12:33 Shaldra it keeps me sane @_@

12:33 Wolfwood No problem. I try to help when I can.

12:34 Wolfwood I don't sleep much anymore anyways.

12:34 Shaldra I spend my nights catching moths.

12:34 Shaldra don't ask it's a long story.

12:35 Babelglyph tee hee~~

12:35 Wolfwood I shant.

12:35 Babelglyph good boy~

12:35 Babelglyph Aaaanyways.

12:35 Babelglyph Opstuff.

12:35 Shaldra I think X is reading the logs

12:35 * Xadium! counterproductive lurking etc

12:35 Babelglyph I am anxious to see who will be running this election~

12:35 Shaldra see

12:35 Babelglyph SO X WHEN ARE NOMINATIONS STARTIGN

12:35 Babelglyph >=[

12:36 Xadium! call it monday i guess that's enough time.

12:36 Wolfwood Hello fellow slave to a boss who can't write an acceptable schedual.

12:36 Babelglyph cool =D

12:36 Xadium! Hey wolf

12:36 Xadium! oh my boss CAN

12:36 Xadium! he just chooses not to.

12:36 Xadium! for me

12:36 Raihosha Hey Xadium. My sympathies on the crappy schedule.

12:36 Xadium! my otehr workers in tech are all 8-5 quite nicely

12:36 Xadium! i'm the one in the *****er.

12:36 Wolfwood My boss chooses not to out of sheer lazyboo-ness

12:37 Xadium! i could excuse laziness

12:37 Xadium! thanks rai

12:37 Xadium! because laziness can be corrected by someone else doing it

12:37 Babelglyph big kids with their jobs and work and such

12:37 zf at in retail it's not

12:37 Xadium! this is institutional aggravation

12:37 Wolfwood Borders is a horrible mistake.

12:38 Xadium! my job has gotten steadily more annoying with each passign week

12:38 Shaldra wow this tangented quick

12:38 Babelglyph yes, it did

12:38 Xadium! sorry shutting up now

12:38 Xadium! go about your business

12:38 Babelglyph why should you

12:38 Babelglyph I don't have much else to say on the op thing'

12:38 zf wait til you've ben there 4 years and they ask you to do stuff above your pay grade on a regular basis

12:38 Raihosha We like to talk to you Xadium.

12:39 zf yes, we don't get to see much of you these days :/

12:39 Shaldra THIS IS WHAT I TELL HIM

12:39 Shaldra anyways

12:39 Wolfwood I've been at my job allmost two years now and i've been passed over for store management three times because I would'nt write my school schedual / life around those slave-driveing such and such.

12:39 Raihosha My sadness is that I can't use the Internet, period, at work.

12:39 Xadium! well my whole day is ruined, i spend the morning prepping for work, afternoon gettign there, night working and have no energy when i get home to recuperate

12:40 Xadium! that's why i'm invisible

12:40 Shaldra *hug :<*

12:40 Xadium! domo

12:40 zf see, our company made a web based data system

12:40 zf so they HAVE to give us internet

12:41 Babelglyph kekekeke

12:41 Anna I'm finally was about to start work, but my mom had complications. I may end up quitting Forward House and ***** off like Chris-chan.

12:41 zf it works out VERY well for us normal people

12:41 Raihosha Oh, we HAVE internet zaira, we just aren't allowed to use it unless it is directly business related.

12:41 Shaldra you people and your ability to sit down at work

12:41 Shaldra **** you all

12:41 Wolfwood Oh before I forget X.

12:41 Xadium! i have it too but i have to be on the sales floor doing otehr people's work

12:41 Wolfwood I aquired a bit of Whoodom I must send you at the Xmas.

12:41 Xadium! ooh

12:41 zf part of our job requires searching for stuff like author contacts

12:41 Shaldra and ahaha brb I apparently have to do MORE THINGS

12:42 Anna ah.

12:42 Wolfwood It am TARDIS USB hub

12:42 Xadium! i hve that XD

12:42 * Xadium! pats it

12:42 Wolfwood Oh.

12:42 Raihosha Oh, you grabbed one of those, eh?

12:42 Xadium! hell yes XD

12:43 Babelglyph I think I might need a USB hub sometime

12:43 Xadium! from Time and Space Toys

12:43 Babelglyph then I can leave my cables plugged into it

12:43 Wolfwood Got mine in a trade with some nice british airsoft chaps.

12:43 Xadium! ooh

12:43 Babelglyph and move my laptop around

12:43 Babelglyph and only have to unplug one USB cable

12:43 Xadium! it's a neat thign aint it

12:43 Wolfwood Yea.

12:43 Babelglyph but the TARDIS one doesn

12:43 Anna I lucky that both of my computers have slots for the PSP card/Memory Prto Due stick. So it's easy to put stuff on it. I still need game suggestions

12:43 Babelglyph 't have a lot of ports, right?

12:43 * Xadium! hits the sign on the door and hears it make the noise

12:43 Xadium! it has 4

12:43 Wolfwood I'm tempted to build one as a mini-mountan dew machine and I blame you.

12:43 Babelglyph hmm.

12:44 Xadium! lol make a cardbard sleeve

12:44 Babelglyph four would probably do okay.

12:44 Xadium! i have no psp so i cannot recoomend games; shal is the one there

12:44 Xadium! she has one

12:44 Raihosha Four seems to be the standard for hubs.

12:44 Anna Cool.

12:45 Xadium! I have a spare 8 port hib lying about

12:45 Xadium! ^hub

12:45 Wolfwood Tell Shal we have Morimoto-endorsed knives at the school nao.

12:45 Xadium! i will

12:45 Raihosha Really? Those must be hard to find...

12:45 Raihosha THe 8 ports that is...

12:45 Xadium! i think i bought it oat newegg.com or something

12:46 Xadium! it's not that hot actually

12:46 Xadium! not powered so it's limited in what it can do

12:46 Wolfwood nam home made pinwheel steaks

12:46 Anna hm.

12:47 Wolfwood aaaaaaaaaaand brb hands smell of gun oil brb

12:47 Raihosha *sigh* Well, I've never needed more than four ports. Printer, Scanner, External Drive... that's about it.

12:47 Babelglyph hmm...

12:47 Babelglyph Camera cable, external, mouse

12:48 Babelglyph (though the mouse wouldn't have to go on it)

12:48 Babelglyph MP3 charger

12:48 Xadium! i need all the ports i can get

12:48 Babelglyph thumb drive

12:48 Babelglyph thumb drive wouldn't stay on there

12:48 Babelglyph but camera, external, mp3 would

12:48 Babelglyph so then that only gives me one extra to mess with :/

12:48 Wolfwood i return

12:48 Babelglyph I only have three USB ports on my computer

12:48 Xadium! iphone printer mouse kbd webcam headset externaldrive

12:49 Babelglyph KBD?

12:49 Xadium! keyboard

12:49 Raihosha Camera can go to port four (I don't use a webcam, and plug in external cameras for downloads only ocasionally). I don't use a mouse on my laptop.

12:49 Babelglyph oh

12:49 Babelglyph durr

12:49 Babelglyph I use a mouse on my laptop when I am at home.

12:49 Xadium! i then hook up external camera, thumbdrives etc

12:49 Wolfwood Say X, out of curiosity, did you ever get started on the bombrun codeing before retail hell became a part of your life?

12:49 Babelglyph Because I play vidja games.

12:49 Xadium! no sorry wolf ><

12:49 Raihosha Well, I lurves my trackpad...

12:49 Babelglyph ever played HKO with a touchpad?

12:49 Babelglyph it sucks.

12:49 Wolfwood 'scool, just curious.

12:49 Babelglyph SUCKS.

12:50 Babelglyph It's really not the moving that's bad

12:50 Babelglyph it's the right-clicking >_<

12:50 Xadium! i use a trackball it's so nice

12:50 Babelglyph and

12:50 Babelglyph don't ever try Portal with a touchpad.

12:50 Babelglyph It's so annoying.

12:50 Raihosha Well, can't you set the trackpad to recognize two fingers and a click as a right-click?

12:51 Babelglyph ...

12:51 Babelglyph why would I want to do that

12:51 Babelglyph then I would screw it up all the time

12:51 Babelglyph D:

12:51 Xadium! brb

12:51 Babelglyph besides

12:51 Babelglyph I have a mouse.

12:51 Babelglyph I use my mouse.

12:51 Babelglyph I love my mouse.

12:51 Babelglyph I didn't go for one of the handcrampy tiny ultraportable laptop mice.

12:51 Raihosha ANd I don't really do more than ocassional online flash games, so my opinion is probably not matching your reality.

12:51 Babelglyph I got a real desktop mouse that FITS my hand.

12:51 Babelglyph ^_^

12:51 Wolfwood hmmm

12:52 Babelglyph with an ultracomfy scrollwheel~

12:52 Wolfwood Should I buy the flightstick and throttle for Ace Combat 6 I wonder.

12:53 Babelglyph no, you should write an essay in Korean instead.

12:53 Wolfwood The Spore is learning Korean.

12:54 Wolfwood *pet name for the sister*

12:54 Raihosha An essay in Korean and then translate it to Japaneese.

12:54 Babelglyph bad move

12:54 Babelglyph that name is already taken

12:54 Babelglyph please use another one

12:55 Raihosha Maybe his sister has pink hair?

12:56 Xadium! back

12:56 Babelglyph wb

12:56 Raihosha Hey X, wb.

12:56 Xadium! thx

12:56 Babelglyph blegh i feel sick again x_x

12:57 Babelglyph I wish I had someone to make tea for me. :(

12:57 Raihosha Ick. I had a bad cold a week or two back, I can sympathise.

12:57 Babelglyph Oh oh that's RIGHT I'm going to the tea store today!! ^_^

12:58 Babelglyph and

12:58 Babelglyph i wish this were a cold :<

12:58 Babelglyph then i could look forward to it being over :<

12:59 Raihosha So you just feel sick?

12:59 Babelglyph yup.

12:59 Babelglyph I think I know what it is

12:59 Babelglyph but I don't know

12:59 Babelglyph and I'm going to wait and see

13:00 Babelglyph if it is, i'll keep getting worse

13:00 Wolfwood Ironically enough, yes.

13:00 Babelglyph if it's not, then i won't

13:00 Wolfwood She does have pink hair.

13:00 * Babelglyph shakes her fist at halloween

13:00 Babelglyph if not for that I would have green hair already

13:01 Wolfwood I'm just going to sling on my airsoft gear this year.

13:02 Wolfwood Just gotta wait for my BDU top to get here

13:02 Raihosha I'm going to a villian's themed party. I'm running out of costuming time, so I'm thinking a box with a red glowy lens and being HAL 9000.

13:03 * Xadium! watches detroit metal city

13:03 Wolfwood I cannot let you do that Rai.

13:04 Raihosha :P @wolf

13:04 Xadium! open the pod bay doors hall

13:04 Xadium! ^hal

13:04 Wolfwood Ohhh OSU at Mich ST is on.

13:04 Wolfwood 13 to nothing. Hells yes.

13:05 Babelglyph hope you like singing

13:06 Raihosha Daisy, Daisy tell me you love m true...

13:06 * Babelglyph works on converting her Sailor Moon R files

13:06 Babelglyph I will make these uploads work, dammit

13:06 Babelglyph >=[

13:07 Wolfwood As I was telling Rai, the gift is done for those of you attending my little jaunt this evening.

13:08 Wolfwood I do hope you all enjoy it.

13:08 Babelglyph I am avisiting mah teashop~~

13:08 Babelglyph so I can't make it.

13:09 Babelglyph someday I'd like to see someone do an Ail and Ann pair cosplay with green skin and all

13:09 Wolfwood *nods*

13:10 Babelglyph hahaha, their last names are Ginga

13:10 Raihosha And I'm still working my thrugh Anathem, so I'll be missing tonight as well. Sorry.

13:10 Wolfwood I copypasted a bit about the Kent State Shootings for you guys. I hope you do not mind.

13:12 Babelglyph whooaaaa

13:12 Babelglyph these are ACTUAL fansubs

13:12 Babelglyph not just encodes of the ADV ones

13:13 Wolfwood Do you guys like Megaupload or Rapidshare?

13:14 Raihosha SO far, I highly reccomend Anathem, but will note that it starts slowly. THe first 300 pages set up the world, more than diving into plot.

13:17 Wolfwood Rapidshare it is.

13:17 Wolfwood I miss the age of radioplays and fan dubs.

13:18 Babelglyph I can't decide if this file is off

13:18 Babelglyph or if it's just bad lip synch on the animation

13:20 Wolfwood Well I should go then. Time to go sling books.

13:21 Babelglyph bai.

13:21 Wolfwood See you guys tonight!!

13:21 Raihosha good luck wolf.

13:21 Wolfwood ty

13:21 Wolfwood bye

13:24 Babelglyph you know

13:24 Babelglyph sailor moon is kind of odd

13:24 Raihosha how so?

13:24 Babelglyph AFAIK usagi never really LIKES being Sailor Moon.

13:24 Babelglyph She accepts it

13:24 Babelglyph but she doesn't really ENJOY it

13:25 zf she doesn't like fighting people or hurting anyone

13:26 Raihosha Hmmm. You may be right. Of course, the concept of accepting your role in life (or your amazing powers) isn't unique to SM, even if it is, perhaps, uncommon in many stories.

13:26 Babelglyph no, it's not

13:26 zf utena doesn't like dueling, but she does it

13:26 Babelglyph but it's interesting to me that she doesn't really like it

13:27 Raihosha True. One might expect anyone to want to be a princess and future queen of the world.

13:28 Raihosha Or am I falling into Disney's "every girl a princess" hype?

13:28 zf would you want all that responsibility?

13:29 Raihosha I'm still getting used to the responsibility of pushing paperwork in the nuclear industry...

13:34 Raihosha Did I derail the conversation?

13:35 Babelglyph i'm tired and sick and watching stuff

13:35 zf sorry, i'm kind of tired and knitting and watching stuff. i should take a nap. but i don't want to get up

13:35 Raihosha Ah. SO the conversation died a natural death. That's fine, I do need to mow the grass.

13:36 Babelglyph hahaha

13:36 Babelglyph naru even points out that she gets into a lot of "weird situations"

13:36 Babelglyph oh naru <3

13:36 Raihosha So later then. ^_^

13:37 Raihosha /away

13:37 Babelglyph later.

13:37 zf later rai

13:37 Babelglyph i need to start my paper but i'm sleepy...

13:37 zf what's it on?

13:37 Babelglyph i'm gonna go lay outside and see if i can make myself feel better

13:37 Babelglyph i haven't picked my subject yet :/

13:38 zf ah

13:38 zf hope it helps

13:38 Babelglyph it's something to do with basic linguistics

13:38 Babelglyph but i haven't decided

13:38 Babelglyph oh, wait

13:38 Babelglyph no, i have a decent idea

20:18 Oronde hmms
