(21:46:21) [me]: (yes, linguistics is science—it's predictive)
(21:46:50) [Aladnsane]: Then tell me how my ancestors will say 'indifferent' 500 years from now.

"Kids are freakin' expensive! ...Uh, not to buy, but to raise."
"I like that bus—they're all gettin' on him. Oh, rats, they found me!"
"This is not a non-word! [xkɬpltθkʰft] is a non-word."
Jonathan: "I don't like the 373 bus as much as the 66 bus, because instead of dropping you off a block and a half from the house, it drops you off √50 blocks from the house."

Jonathan: "People never write on your wall. They write on my wall all the time."
Derek: "Yeah, that's because you're friends with an entire country."

(01:09:17) [Aladnsane]: I learned english from Tolkien. What do you expect?
(01:01:57) [Aladnsane]: But seriously, when you show someone ID that says it's your 21st birthday, order a drink they don't know how to make. and then /tell them how to make it/... it tends to put a damper on their machismo.
(03:17:16) [me]: never heard of æ tensing? ;)
(03:17:55) Qatharsis: D'oh, of course. It's the opposite of q crumbling. ;)
