(15:15:10) Өвгөнхүү: it'll b jank, but desperate times call for duct tape snakes
(01:03:16) kesuari: it's very difficult to say "psycholinguistics" differently from "psycho linguistics", and a lot of people think that's an apt description of me/what i do
(12:17pm May 5) Michael:
sudo stop --event=rain --location=seattle --reason="it's amost summer for crissakes"
(12:18pm May 5) Michael:
it worked! sorta.
(6:14pm May 6) [me]:
export LOCATION="Seattle";
configure --force;
sudo make rain;
hah! try and stop that!
(6:49pm May 6) Michael:
dude, wtf, it's raining again.
sudo killall make
sudo userdel -f Jonathan
(7:22pm May 6) [me]:
agh, it's starting up again here now..
mv /indiana/rain /seattle/
chmod a-rw /seattle/rain
chown Jonathan /seattle/rain
(Okay, I don't get the full points, because I didn't show the roothack I used to get my account back.)
(18:19:44) jonathan: we'll probably have 1TB flash drives in a couple years
(18:19:56) jonathan: but 1PB is still quite a ways off I think
(18:21:40) T. A. McLeay: hm maybe
(18:21:51) T. A. McLeay: what'd you do with so much storage anyway? :)
(18:22:52) jonathan: put star trek on it
(18:22:58) jonathan: and I mean all of it
(18:23:25) jonathan: well, maybe not Voyager
(17:29:30) Michael T: vowels are always plotting against me.. especially ɯ. you never know what ɯ is thinking.
"I'm thinking of getting a new game console. Basically the reason being that I don't have a girlfriend. Not that I think it'll help me get one..."
(21:47:20) Sarah: I think I'd have rather went to the leper colony with my parents than be swamped by old ladies.
(21:48:33) Sarah: The leper colony is historical, therefore cool.
(21:48:40) Sarah: Old people are NOT historical, unless they have neat stories...they're just old.
(14:04:28) Michaela: but the central asian/tajik dating trick i learned is that the guys just gradually start attaching pictures of flowers to emails and see how the girl reacts
(18:45:25) kesuari: i never know how to assess girls
(18:24:50) Jóhann: im such a loser and super nörd :P
last night, my friend asked me "Iceland is lowering the drinking age to 19, want to go out tonight"
I said "Nah, I am doing some massive edits on the Chechen wikipedia, might get 300 articles tonight" :P
(18:25:07) Jóhann: and i did :D
(18:25:09) Jóhann: 300 articles :D
(02:14:04) Jóhann: dude, can you stop being a language nerd like me for one second and enjoy chauvnistic jokes? :D
me: "Yeah, it's Low Germanic, but not Northern."
Derek: "Huh? Is it a language named after some city or something?"
me: "Nope, it's named after a continent."
Derek: "A continent?!"
me: "Yep. Go back to your room, continue grading, and in 30 seconds you'll figure it out and be like ‘Dammit!’"
(16:51:22) Derek: LOL
(16:51:24) Derek: you bastard
(16:52:04) [me]: told you :-P
(16:52:22) Derek: *shaking fist*
(00:11:39) kesuari: anyway, on notes unrelated, have you got anywhere a list of soundchanges from some earlier form of the language to kazakh/kyrgyz?
(00:12:09) [me]: no, but I could make one really quickly
(00:12:22) kesuari: could you?
(00:12:31) kesuari: there needs to be a turkic romlang
"You're not married, and you haven't got a girlfriend—and you don't watch Star Trek? …Good lord."
Jonathan: "Maybe they just think that */p/ turned to /b/ in Germanic. But it only went half way."
Derek: "Yeah, that's how they got þorn."
Jonathan: "My favourite translation tool on the internet is to look something up on wikipedia in the source language, and then click the link to the article in the destination language."
Joyce: "Oh yeah, I only ever did that to look up how Star Trek was written in katakana."
02:30:52 [Rianna]: Like being so into Rocky Horror Picture Show, that you're there all the time and sleeping with multiple cast members at the same time in the same room? :-p
02:31:45 [me]: well, that's not so sketchy for Rocky Horror if you're in the cast
02:31:57 [Rianna]: whoa, yeah, that is pretty weird
"I wish I knew more places that had less of an element of sketch."
"It'd be cool to be a Q. I'd dance in a quasar, man. Totally."
01:33:23 [me]: the commercial right before that one just now was a girl with a perfectly standard my-generation american accent, and I was admiring her very clear vowels. Enough so that I downloaded Praat.
01:34:11 [Tristan]: you're kidding me?
01:36:01 [Tristan]: "check out this girl's formants!"
16:02:46 devnullpenguin: they really shoulda called it phonology phest tho
[17:03] Aaron B: *dork*
[17:03] Aaron B: not that that's a bad thing, mind you
[17:03] Aaron B: given, i heard a radio ad and thought about phonological queues
"Usually I just huddle up in my room and conjugate things."
"I had a dorky girlfriend once. We had a lot of sex, though–that wasn't so dorky."
"You know you're a classics major if you see a door labelled 'Attic Access' and you immediately think 'Dude! A secret portal to Greece!'"
"I don't think I've had enough to drink. I can still type all my passwords."
(21:31:32) Aaron B: if (oberon.making_garlic_bread_p) {
aaron.go(geekshelter)
}
(15:52:15) [me]: well that's sent
(15:52:21) [me]: or it's in the quad's outgoing mail
(16:02:45) Adam Batkin: Email not snail mail?
(16:02:54) [me]: snail
(16:03:03) Adam Batkin: Oh thats what you mean by quad's outgoing mail
(16:03:08) [me]: yeah =P
(16:03:23) Adam Batkin: I was wondering why in the world there would be an SMTP server for outgoing mail for your quad
(16:03:29) Adam Batkin: And why it would queue it
(01:05:24) оберон - desktop: I code.

(01:05:49) оберон - desktop: She reads.
(20:42:57) LunaCamilla: it's a sad state of affairs when you're single b/c you're not geeky enough
