(21:01:48) [anon 1]: yes
(21:01:56) [anon 1]: but have you worked with worse for essentially $5 an hour?
(21:02:08) [anon 2]: I've worked with worse for free :-P
(21:02:13) [anon 1]: good lawd.
(21:02:18) [anon 2]: plus, I live in America
(21:02:22) [anon 2]: where half the country is dicks
(21:02:23) [anon 1]: OH GOD

me: "Yeah, Tolgonay, if I won the lottery and got poisoned, you'd be the first person they investigate."
Andy: "Or they'll just look at the mouldy bread on the table, and be like ‘oh, it was an accident.’"
"There's only three themes in Bluegrass anyway: death, bad love, and for some reason retail."
(17:24:59) ragib: in fact, I'm bangladeshi
(17:26:53) zfe: are there still tigers there?
(17:34:52) ragib: yes, the royal bengal tiger :D
(17:37:25) zfe: cool
(17:42:24) zfe: can you privately own one
(17:42:28) zfe: in bangladesh?
...
(17:45:47) ragib: zfe, no i guess
(17:46:16) zfe: :(
(17:46:21) zfe: i wanted to be like scarface
(17:46:23) zfe: in bangladesh
(17:46:24) zfe: my villa
(17:46:27) zfe: my tiger
(17:46:27) ragib: oh
(17:46:29) zfe: my cocaine addict wife
(17:46:31) zfe: :(
(17:46:46) firespeaker: zfe: first you have to join the mafia though
(17:46:57) firespeaker: ... *be* the mafia
(17:46:59) ragib: hm
(17:47:18) zfe: "be" is more proper
(17:47:30) firespeaker: I suspect if you were that rich, you probably could own a tiger
(17:47:47) TinoDidriksen: Legally, only if you build a zoo.
(17:47:50) firespeaker: whatever laws exist could be avoided by payments to the right officials
(17:48:01) firespeaker: TinoDidriksen: I'm not talking legally
(17:48:08) firespeaker: TinoDidriksen: this is Bangladesh we're talking about
(17:48:19) TinoDidriksen: True true
(17:48:23) zfe: well, buying a zoo license
(17:48:30) zfe: is not that expensive probably
(17:48:41) firespeaker: zfe: but there would probably be restrictions associated with it
(17:48:46) firespeaker: like letting people in to see your tiger
(17:48:52) zfe: sure
(17:48:58) zfe: but who told you i will keep the tiger in a cage?
(17:49:14) zfe: food for tiger √

(00:49:38) kesuari: you have a really lax system
[Jonathan explains rules in more depth]
(00:54:44) kesuari: okay, now it seems more normal
(00:54:56) kesuari: complex rules & money = immigration law
(11:22:14) kesuari: i think it's more that people want to be rich
(11:22:19) kesuari: but not particularly jewish
(03:00:00) Аймона: i was sort of writing this cover letter. i mean, why on earth you would need a cover letter for fin. aid from the person who comes from KG

(00:57:37) Hannah: i don't understand why people can't pay me to cook and listen to music.
(15:45:30) [me]: you make gourmet food from foodbank handouts?
(15:45:39) Aladnsane: This is the PNW.
(15:46:07) Aladnsane: Foodbank handouts are raw ingredients, some canned goods, bakery rosemary diamantes, fresh fruit and veg... *shrug*
(15:46:15) Aladnsane: If you know how to take your pick, yes, I do
...
(15:49:05) Aladnsane: Seriously though; the Food Bank here is amazing
(15:50:49) Aladnsane: I've gotten fresh bell peppers, fresh cilantro, there's ALWAYS good bread (largely because most people going there have families, so they need whitebread for the kids, because they don't seem to realize that kids are /trained/ to be picky, rather than being naturally picky - it's serving them 'kids food', that makes kids picky), I mean, there's always things that are hard to find,
(15:50:51) [me]: in Seattle, I can imagine
(15:51:06) Aladnsane: Bellingham
(15:51:13) Aladnsane: In Seattle, I could get all of that Dumpster Diving
(19:13:07) kesuari: French Guiana ... is an overseas department ... of France

(19:13:46) kesuari: france does everything really weird
(19:13:50) kesuari: france is really weird
(19:13:51) kesuari: damn frogs

(18:28:09) Jóhann: I sent such a corny email "What will it cost if someone stole this book" :P haha
(18:28:15) Jóhann: yeah, who the fuck is going to steal a book haha
(22:53:40) [me]: it's the cheapest wine I've seen

"You know what I don't understand about bribing people to buy things—why don't you just lower the prices to what it would've been...?"
my father: "Wait, why's it that much cheaper?"
employee at undisclosed fast-foodery: "I gave you the senior discount. ...Not sayin' there're any seniors around here—I just hooked y'all up."
me: "How can you recall food?"
my mother: "If you don't, it recalls itself."
"Somehow I think the soda market is more fluid than the music industry."
KJ: "Why can't my roommate see he's annoying me and just move out?"
Joyce: "Some people get satisfaction from annoying other people."
KJ: "Well, he's still paying rent."
Jonathan: "Some people pay to annoy other people."
KJ: "But he's poor."
Joyce: "Yeah, it's a luxury to be able to annoy other people."

Anara: "It's Alsu."
Jonathan W: "Oh, she's Tatar. She'll never get naked."
Jonathan C: "That's my experience. Unless you start dropping the blue chips." [tosses in a blue chip, worth the highest value: 100]

Shoshana: "What did he mean by ‘претензия’?"
Jonathan: "I don't really know."
Shoshana: "Maybe he meant ‘bribe.’"
Jonathan: "Whoa, there's a Russian Passport Helpline! And it's a 1-800 number."
Rianna: "1-800-BRIBE-US?"
Jonathan: "Yeah, it's a couple people taking advantage of one group's suffering to take advantage of another group's generosity to take advantage of another group's money."
Rianna: "It's like one big orgy of screw-overage."
"Formatting in LaTeX is like spending the extra couple of bucks to have a good liquor in your cocktail."

20:58:15 [Tristan]: what, you can do that just by saying it over IM? :)
20:58:27 [me]: hey, it was a performative sentence :)
20:58:40 [Tristan]: iceland has the 7th highest GDP per capita, apparently
20:58:46 [Tristan]: performative?
20:58:52 [Tristan]: (is that a word?)
20:59:04 [me]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performative
20:59:08 [me]: wikipedia thinks so :)
21:00:20 [Tristan]: hm, interesting, so by saying "*moves to iceland*" it actually caused you to move to iceland? :)
21:01:15 [Tristan]: *moves to iceland*
21:01:20 [Tristan]: nah, didn't seem to work :(
21:01:29 [Tristan]: obviously not a perfomative in my dialect :)

Jonathan: "I mean, what sort of person founds an all girls school? I guess you have to be a rich guy with weird dreams."
Matt: "Yo."
"That's an expensive relationship. He could find a cheaper one. He just doesn't know how to manage his money."
