<moosifer_jones> arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 
<moosifer_jones> the problem with installing Word is the stupid fucking 
                 paperclip thingy is now siwtched back on! 
 * moosifer_jones starts attacking bits of Word, violently 
<gordon-r-d> I *hate* that paperclip...I wanted a little Nimon or a Meep... 
<Ladylark> Oh, Mags, i'll have to send you this little realtime video 
           someone gave me... guy with a puter, and a large paperclip 
           behind him.. "You look like you're writing a letter" "piss off!" 
           "you look like you're writing a letter" "piss OFF!" "you look 
           like you're writing a letter" "aaarrrghh!!! <attacks it>" 
<Deadite_Sofa1> Thank God MS don't do military software... 
<Deadite_Sofa1> 'Hi! you seem to be trying to launch a tacticle missle 
                strike... Do you want help blowing up Poland?'

<Thete> well, the $%# computer seems to think the dsl is down, which is 
        clarly not the case 
<Thete> grrrr 
<dha> ok. I've been doing this too long... my *immediate* reaction was... 
      "hm, $%# - global variable of some sort with a comment..."

 * Jondar still needs to get used to this laptop... touchpad mice are 
   slightly tricky :) 
<DoctorWho> You too, huh? ^_^ 
<DoctorWho> My laptop has both a touchpad and a tit 
<Jondar> :) 
<Jondar> one of the first things I did on the laptop was turn pointer 
         trails on as well... :) 
<Alryssa> a... tit? 
 * Alryssa got used to the touchpad quickly... in some respects it's better 
   than a mouse 
<El_Zoof> I hate the damn nipples 
<DoctorWho> One of those nipple/button things 
<DoctorWho> Of course, I usually just plug in a PS/2 mouse 
<DoctorWho> It has an interesting way of preventing conflicts between the 
            three 
<Jondar> ah yes, the trackpoint... thank you IBM for that... 
<DoctorWho> When you use one (touchpad, nipple, external) it disables the 
            others until a few seconds after the other stops moving 
<DoctorWho> That's what it's called? 
<Jondar> it was IBM that started that on their first range of ThinkPads 
<DoctorWho> In some respects I like it better than the pad 
<DoctorWho> But still... give me a real mouse anyday 
<El_Zoof> This is quite probably the only situation in which I believe 
          balls are superior to nipples

 * El_Zoof imagines the Beeb doing a Doctor Who/Star Wars crossover set in 
   a herb farm

<Thete> glad these were cheap (but that might be part of the problem) 
<Alryssa> Gah. That sucks 
 * DoctorWho charlies another disc in the bin

<The_42nd_Doctor> Frisbeetarianism-- the belief that when you die, your 
                  soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck there.

<invincor> I heard a study result yesterday that people who ate a 
           high-tomato diet, i.e. lots of ketchup and spaghetti sauce, cut 
           their risk of prostate cancer by 1/3 
<Thete> steve: at my workplace we gave that story the headline "medical 
        marinara" 

Mar 6 [22:16]
<Thete> there once was a doc named pertwee

<trinalin> LOL - you know you're getting old and forgetful when you open 
           mIRC and 15 minutes later, open up mIRC only to find you're 
           already online! :-)

          own gally write-up, and i'm in there enough to justify it ^_^ 

Mar 15 [16:29]
<}-raven-{> my idiot moment was at gally this year, where i spent some time 
            talking to this nice woman sat by the pool about arthritis 
            cures and mineral suplements... and we chatted about the 
            weather in the UK... etc etc... 
<}-raven-{> then Mr Beech came over and said, oh btw, this is Anneke, one 
            of the guests of honour 
<}-raven-{> i considered this for 30 seconds, and carried on the 
            conversation

<TomFODW> English is the ultimate case of stealing and borrowing - Germanic 
          structure, but the vocabulary has raped & pillaged from almost 
          every other language on Earth 
<roger`> well, 'raped' is perhaps a little emotive 
<}-raven-{> the english language is a result of a one night stand gone 
            horribly wrong. 
<TomFODW> in the old, original sense of the word - rape = abduct 
<TomFODW> i have an enormous vocabulary & write with extreme precisions 
<TomFODW> precision 
<TomFODW> oops 
<}-raven-{> BWAHA! 
<Nathan_Roberts> LOL 
<}-raven-{> QF! 

Mar 19 [22:26]
<Nathan_Roberts> Well, my experiences with HP computers haven't been as bad 
                 as what I've heard about compaq computers... 
<Alryssa> well, once I uninstalled all the compaq shit on this one it seems 
          to be fine. :P 
<IanMc> Nathan: Dude, you're gettin' a Dell. 
 * IanMc ducks. 
<Alryssa> Dewd, you're gettin' an InfiDell.

Mar 19 [22:44]

 * Alryssa loves the scene in the park where Morpheus is feeding pigeons 
   with a loaf of French bread... she comes along and talk to him and gets 
   frustrated with his attitude, snatches the remainder of the loaf from 
   his hand and throws it at him, bopping him on the head. The look on his 
   face is one of sheer terror. Just my kinda gal. :) 
<Alryssa> King of Dreams, getting his arse kicked by his sister. Mwaa. 
 * PeterJF eyes his sister warily 
<Alryssa> whaaaat? And she wears an ankh, too. She rocks. :)

<DoctorWho> What you think I'm trying to do, woman? 
<DoctorWho> I'm in bed, on the bedside terminal 
<DoctorWho> I'm not tired enough to sleep, but too tired to actually do 
            anything worthwhile 
<DoctorWho> So I'm in DWC instead ^_^ 
<Alryssa> I've been in that state for about 72hours :) 
<PeterJF> I think I should find nate a job out of spite 
<DoctorWho> . o O ( My plan is working!! )
