Absurdity Is Always An Answer

itchy
I wish I had a dollar for each time I've read, "I don't have a horse in this race, but ..." over the past week
monitron
itchy: you should slowly start trying to introduce new versions of that phrase
Katya
i don't have a horse in this race, but i do in my bed."
monitron
itchy: "I don't have a chili in this cookoff, but"
monitron
itchy: "I don't have an STD from this hooker, but"
itchy
there you go monitron ... we need to come up with new ways to say it
Katya
I don't have a penis in this vagina, but...
cheesoning
"I don't have a dong in this logo, but"
cheesoning
so close!
liquidindian
I don't have a cock in this arse, however...

I don't have a body in this freezer...
monitron
I don't have a gerbil in this cardboard tube, although...
Katya
I don't have a rag in this molotov cocktail, but...
monitron
I don't have a concubine in this harem, nevertheless..
itchy
well here's my problem with the whole "I don't have a horse in this race" thing ... you see, they DO have a horse and they WANT that fucking horse to win BADLY ... but they don't want to look foolish should the horse lose
Katya
I dont have a racist in this lynch mob, but on the other hand...
cheesoning
I don't have a WHAT? in this HOO HA!, but...
itchy
maybe just change it ever so slightly to screw with people ... "See, I don't have a house in this race ..."

Only Way To Improve, I Suppose

Niteowl ive been in games where i'm pissed we lost, and it's like, 200 points
Niteowl and teams wherei lost by 800, and it's all good. i think yer right, it's down to chattiness. and taint jokes.sorry, GOOD chatty
itchy not neurotic chatty?Niteowl not verbal vomitus rammed in the ear with the bludgeoning end of a anti-social asstard
liquidindian Getting feedback, are you?
Niteowl yes, they are touchingly specific

Not The Movie.

Niteowl yeah, wtf CD
your team was faar better, i was surprised we kept it that close
sorry
i mean THEIR team was far better
last biggest gap i've experience was a 300-400 pt loss, which wasn't bad, or didnt' feel bad, at all
maybe it was all the ballsack jokes
c. d. chatty teams make it so much more fun
itchy ^ for all games
Cyrano Yeah, there ain't much worse than a quiet, losing L4D team.Niteowl chatty teams make me care so much less about the score
Cyrano In the online gaming sense.

Niteowl er, bit of a mixed bag, there.
Niteowl two cops and a doc
ralph
actually, it;s spydokcop, my dream job when I was nine.
the year before: firepilot.
Niteowl
it's like a failed Bochco pilot
i dont' think anyone mistakes you for a spy, ralph. it's Sergeant who still has some English accent quirks, even though he's never been to England, and a little bit too free with the nightstick; squirrelly and squidgy undercover cop who has frankly almost copped it twice ; alternatingly debonair and flustered doctor

twig twug none of those books have words on the binding.
Niteowl
it's a poetical thing twig, you wouldn't understand
spruce
it's lie-brary
Gemmy
FAKE BOOKS BURN THEM!!!
twig twug
why does that disturb me so much.
spruce
because you found that book without a title on the binding in your father's library, when you were a boy. You took it down from the shelf and opened it, only to discover that _______________
twig twug
it was really a giraffe!
spruce-libs are my favorite
Niteowl
because they represent the faceless march of literature, of big L, the important canon, the ever growing mass of influence that pushes its way into the public psyche, private lives; also of the small l, the throw away, garbage fiction, the leave it on the train and never finish it fiction, the pot boilers, the 'thrillers', the pop-culture in written form with its lack of insight and instruction. Perhaps because it illustrates the insidious need to show off intellectual prowess by the display of books, and, even worse, the APPEARANCE of books. Or maybe you have a phobia of libraries.
cheesoning
...it had fallen on your foot minutes earlier.

liquidindian No, but it's a start.

Occam's Switchblade

iquidindian Read a theory on twitter.

liquidindian "Balls" doesn't cut it.

Planned Obsolescence

cheesoning
thing that bothers me most about the Wire season I'm in - all the burners just tossed to the ground. Lots of littering on that show.
Niteowl
yes, cheese, it's the littering of commodity electronics that most disturbed me in a TV show about urban decay, the plight of those imprisoned in an endless quagmire of suffering, violence, poverty, and addiction, and about the inevitable hopeless of living a life worth any meaning under the oppression of the de facto and de jure powers that be.

I thought it was gonna be a really cool rehash of the first half.
like when you have to do the first stealth room but without gargoyles?
but then that was the only room where that happened

Augmented Reality

Political Analogies

liquidindian
I hate this whole anti-Obama narrative.
America: "I took viagra like you said, but I've only had excellent sex a few times rather than 24/7, so I've decided to castrate myself."
"It's okay, though, because removing the penis from my body will allow private sector penises to flourish."
"I've also decided to sew up my anus because it's generating a lot of waste."
"There's no real analogy in that last bit, I guess. Sorry."

"Analyst"

Gemmy: My eyes are crossed due to complicated and pompous. Doing last editing of my report, which is going to press today.Gemmy: Example: In qualitative terms, Taiwan’s F-16A/Bs and Mirage 2000-5s are roughly comparable to Chinese Su-30s, Su-27/J-11s, and J-10s in performance and combat capability. The F-CK-1A/Bs are generally considered superior to J-8s, but lack the aerodynamic performance of some of the newer PLA aircraft types, while the F-5E/Fs should be a match for the J-7s.
ralph: oh jesus you know planesralph: I was just about to go on a diatribe about Dassault
Gemmy: nah, just Chinese and Taiwanese ones
Niteowl: quicklime, hotline to a Cleaner, proficiency at killing at close quarters with nothing more than a bit of dental floss and an incontinent tabby.

iPad Handshake

ralph: take her to lunch, tell her you wanted her to know first, but things happened too fastralph: make her feel special
ralph: srsly
cheesoning: rub her feet

Hardened

monitron: I don't feel like age is a liability in this field, as long as you stay up to date and don't "harden in your ways," so to speak

ralph: just wait monitron
ralph: your ways get hardenedralph: even if you vow it will never happen
ralph: at some point, a subtle series of transformations occurs
Niteowl: that's your T-zone, ralph, and just buy the Oil of Olay product already.
Niteowl: gawd.
monitron: i'm already feeling it
ralph: and you go from a guy who can sleep on the floor of a departures lounge in a third world airport
Cyrano: stop saying hardened.
ralph: to a guy who yells "WATCH YOUR MANNERS" at neighbors who are loudKatya: hardened
