(21:11:05) firespeaker: you guys are so much better at git than me :-P

(21:11:22) firespeaker: I'm a dinosaur, from back in the days of cvs

(21:11:33) sushain: that reminds me of a kesha song

(18:31:03) jimregan: well, if you own bagpipes, why *wouldn't* you add pyro?

(2011-10-14 16:41:03) Christopher: In Yoshkar-Ola there are ethnofuturist young people who record pop music CDs and put on stage productions in Mari, but I don't think their efforts reach the villages they came from.

(2011-10-14 16:41:30) Christopher: Essentially they are a small elite who live in a bubble while their language is dying across the republic.

(00:57:37) Hannah: i don't understand why people can't pay me to cook and listen to music.

(03:02:05) Sarah: How the fuck do I ignore a woman who now calls me ABBA because she's convinced that TikTak is secretly ABBA?

(04:38:57) Jóhann: youd like this song :P

(04:39:03) Jóhann: kazakh weird music is the genre

(13:54:40) [me]: the music videos are kind of Turkish too

(13:56:52) Michael: are they vaguely thuggish and/or have beautiful women prancing around in revealing outfits and silly visuals?

(13:57:05) [me]: only the silly visuals

(13:57:19) Michael: yeah, turks are into that

(13:57:25) [me]: one has a bunch of girls getting rained on

(13:57:33) Michael: just randomly?

(13:57:37) [me]: mm, no

(13:57:47) Michael: what a concept.

(13:58:00) Michael: so... you guys are just gonna sing like, you know, your concerts right. .

(13:58:45) Michael: and then, right in the middle, bam! rain.. no umbrellas, either.. then.. uh.. that was my only id ea

(23:23:16) Sarah: My brain is going in circles right now. Thesis ---> Cleaning ---> Teaching ---> Thesis ---> Repeat

(23:24:22) Sarah: Oh, and throw music popping in randomly.

(23:25:04) Sarah: I'm silly to the point of serenading cans of hair mousse.

(23:27:24) Sarah: What's sad is I'm not joking.

(23:30:47) Sarah: I serenade and dance with the cats too.

(23:33:54) Sarah: Is it bad that this is what keeps me sane?

(01:08:08) Sarah: I say that I have a halo and they tell me it doesn't count if it's super-glued on.

(15:59:40) Rianna: I sat alone in the dark one night ... I found a preacher who spoke of the light -- he'd show me the way according to him, in return for my personal check. I flipped my channel back to CNN and lit another cigarette.

(16:00:15) Rianna: i dunno, that's most sane thing ever said on a country music station

(01:33:38) Jade Solitude: You know you spend too much time on Wikipedia when you look for the "mark this edit as minor" button when editing ID3 tags . . .

(00:21:10) kesuari: am i meant to think something of it ?

(00:21:17) [me]: well, yes :-P

(00:21:33) [me]: as an australian listening to an American-made folk song about Australia :-P

(00:21:59) kesuari: it’s just an american doing what americans do. like when they go off and call us "arsies"...

(00:22:08) kesuari: we forgive you, but we don’t encourage you :)

00:35:10 [sn withheld]: Listening to Blümchen on a crowded bus is like having pink toenails.

03:43:49 [me]: you wanna hear something funny? Moxy Früvous

03:44:04 [me]: they rhyme whopper and copper

03:44:10 [me]: oh

03:44:12 [me]: those do rhyme

15:28:38 qatharsis: Züritüütsch is not so common in the music business. Bärndütsch lends itself better to singing. It's more vowelly.

18:05:22 [Tristan]: "songs about diachronic OT phonology"? you're mad.

[23:16] Laura C: NO WAY!

[23:16] Laura C: that's DRUMS!

[23:16] Laura C: I thought that's what spanish sounded like!

[23:16] Laura C: I must be taking the wrong class.

me [01:31]: check check check check it out

me [01:31]: find out what what what it's all about

Aaron B [01:32]: if you never do that again, it would be ok

me [01:32]: okay, I promise

me [01:32]: we coo now?

Aaron B [01:33]: yeah

me [01:33]: dat be chill mah homester

Aaron B [01:33]: uh

Aaron B [01:33]: we not chill no more

(00:37:21) Оберон: Judging by Anna's reaction, my interpretive "Farm in the Dell" dance won't seem nearly so artistic at !(about to fall asleep) o'clock.

(00:39:50) [me]: isn't it "farmer in the dell"?

(00:40:28) Оберон: fomgers...typing...cheese stands alone.

(18:49:47) Qatharsis: One of your weirdo Frenches.

(18:49:52) [me]: rofl

(18:49:54) [me]: *mine*?

(18:50:05) Qatharsis: You keep digging them up.

(18:20:28) Оберон: I'd never miss free, easily accessible food

(18:20:35) Оберон: Though I'm afraid dinner may consist largely of tainted cow

(18:22:01) Оберон: ...which would make a much better band name than entree

(04:37:43) Оберон: let's play a game of "did the thing the darwinports guy claimed would fix the bug actually fix the bug?"

(04:37:47) Оберон: you want to play too?

(04:37:50) Оберон: You can follow along.

(04:38:13) Оберон: So far, it looks highly suspcious

(04:38:27) Оберон: unless pango traditionally installs in under 10 seconds and doesn't depend on libfreetype

(04:38:36) Оберон: What do you think, Jim?

(04:38:41) Оберон: Well Bob, I've never seen Pango do *that* before.

(04:38:49) Оберон: But gtk2 is still configuring. Let''s watch.

(04:39:19) Оберон: A new error!

(04:39:21) Оберон: Yippee!

(04:40:02) Оберон: let's play "uninstall, clean, and re-install freetype and pango by hand!"

(04:40:03) Оберон: yay!!

(04:40:14) Оберон: do a little dance, shit on the carpet, get down tonight!

(04:40:30) Оберон: Seriously

(04:40:34) Оберон: Some day I'm gonna hunt down these people

(04:40:35) Оберон: in their homes

(04:40:36) Оберон: and walk in

(04:40:39) Оберон: and shit on their carpet

(04:40:41) Оберон: and then I'll point at it

(04:40:48) Оберон: and yell at them

(04:40:59) Оберон: "That's what your software does to me!"

(04:52:12) [me]: Plastic Cup

(04:52:22) Amanda: sounds like an emo band

(07:50:56) Оберон: Anyway, I was just trying it with the C400 mod

(07:51:04) Оберон: which sets the arrow scroll speed to a constant 400

(07:51:13) Оберон: except, thanks to a slight bug, it's 400*xmusic

(07:51:22) Оберон: so on the last song I was dealing with 600bpm arrows the whole way through

(08:00:12) [me]: why only 600bpm?

(08:00:25) Оберон: 1.5 * 400 = 600?

(08:00:31) [me]: oh

(08:00:48) [me]: not 400 * 300bpm

(08:00:54) Оберон: *blink*

(08:00:54) Оберон: no

(08:01:00) Оберон: that would be 400xmusic on max 300

(08:01:04) [me]: that's how I parsed what you said

(08:01:05) Оберон: which is of course completely unplayable

(08:01:20) [me]: it'd be gone before you could hit an arrow, that's for sure

(08:01:24) Оберон: the song would be over in about a quarter of a second!

(08:01:33) Оберон: I can make a song like that

(08:01:36) Оберон: it's called "beep"

(08:01:39) Оберон: it sounds like this:

(08:01:40) Оберон: beep

(08:01:46) Оберон: The steps are this:

(08:01:51) Оберон: XXXX

(23:47:02) [me]: why do I have the DDR version of Oops I did it again stuck in my head?

(23:50:47) Оберон: Because you have sinned.

(23:50:48) Оберон: Duh.

(03:32:19) [me]: heh. Norwegian is a funny language

(03:32:28) Оберон: lol, yes.

(03:32:33) Оберон: thanks for pointing that out

(03:32:35) Оберон: or something

(03:33:16) [me]: ack, too much Norwegian. Need Silly Wizard

(03:33:45) Оберон: lol

(03:34:44) [me]: mmm, Macedonian

(03:34:52) Оберон: lol

(03:35:23) Оберон: at first, "(03:34) [jonathan]: mmm, Macedonian" looks like a random quote

(03:35:28) Оберон: but with some creative editing we have:

(03:35:42) Оберон:

(03:33) [jonathan]: I like the taste of European flesh

(03:34) [jonathan]: mmm, Macedonian

(02:48:11) [me]: the song "ty poterjal" is great. "ty poterjal moi ruki i guby. ty poterjal potomu chto ty glupy"

(02:48:31) оберон(l): you lost my arms and something

(02:48:37) оберон(l): you lost because you're dumb

(02:49:14) [me]: my hands and my lips

(02:49:21) оберон(l): ah

(02:49:32) оберон(l): yes, the two most important parts of a woman *snicker*

(02:49:36) [me]: rofl

(02:49:53) оберон(l): seriously; who comes up with that crap?

(02:50:25) оберон(l): "Oh, but should I live to see another sunrise, even as the sun does bow before your splendor, I would be no richer, for I have bathed in the light of your beauty"

(02:50:28) оберон(l): yadda yadda yadda

(02:50:31) оберон(l): it really does sound like that

(02:50:50) оберон(l): seriously, that's not love

(02:51:00) оберон(l): that's "someone put some bitter crap in my coffee and I think I have the flu"

(02:54:22) Jade Solitude: Green's a good colour.

(02:54:39) Jade Solitude: I rather like this song.

(02:54:59) Jade Solitude: I just bought new speaker system, too.,

(18:27:51) Jade Solitude: And, by some unholy misfourtunte, I somehow got Avril Lavigne's "Complicated" in the mix.

(18:28:17) Jade Solitude: (I don't know why she was on the Japan Gold Disc Awards compilation, but there she was, amidst all the Japanese artists...)

(16:52:55) Qatharsis: Singing in Russian was cool.

(15:09:02) Najana: All right, I'm too tired, somebody should carry me to bed instead of letting me terrorize other people's day and night with bad music from Cyprus.

(22:38:28) [me]: did you get that song?

(22:38:35) [Kathryn]: yes

(22:39:40) [Kathryn]: shit

(22:39:41) [me]: what do you think?

(22:39:46) [Kathryn]: this is a good song

(22:39:55) [me]: =)

(22:40:33) [Kathryn]: Jesus

(22:40:40) [Kathryn]: you know my taste in men and in music

(22:40:43) [Kathryn]: that's creepy

(05:52:06) [me]: you sleeping at all?

(05:52:46) [me]: well, whatever, I'm gonna get two hours or so in.. night

(07:51:14) [oberon]: lol

(07:51:14) [me] : Away: asleep

(07:51:14) [oberon]: yeah

(07:51:17) [oberon]: I was asleep

(08:35:23) [me]: then you should've put up an away message

(08:35:23) [oberon] : Class? At this hour?

(08:35:36) [me]: no, not for another half an hour!

(13:13:47) [oberon]: wasn't feeling well

(13:13:53) [oberon]: probably from sleep deprivation

(13:14:06) [oberon]: but definitely wasn't going to sit through russian with satan playing the bongos in my head.

(13:45:54) [oberon] logged out.

(00:15:56) ¡Luz! Je viens du ciel et les étoiles entre elles / ne parlent que de toi...: but I'm smarted than she is :P
