[08:16] <Gary> I cannot believe they spent money on a domain
[08:16] <Hobbsee> yeah...
[08:16] <Hobbsee> even though it's only $10
[08:16] <Hobbsee> it's just *asking* for trouble

[10:27] <Hobbsee> ah yeah
[10:27] <jpatrick> might have gone by now..
[10:27]  * Hobbsee snorts
[10:30] <Hobbsee> jpatrick: it was the cat.
[10:31] <jpatrick> Hobbsee: right...
[10:31] <Hobbsee> jpatrick: the cat is the one that always hijacks the keyboard, right?
[10:31] <jpatrick> Hobbsee: yep, I've had experience with that :)
[10:32] <Hobbsee> jpatrick: and sends notices to channels

[16:01] <jussi01> hehe
[16:02] <nalioth> PriceChild: didn't she have something to say about that?
[16:02] <jussi01> Ann summers, PriceChild what exactly were you messing with.... ;)
[16:03] <Pici> Who/What is Ann Summers?
[16:03] <jussi01> erotic store
[16:03] <Pici> Ahhh..
[16:04] <Seeker`> Pici: possibly the biggest in the UK - its a big chain
[16:04] <Pici> We're boring in the US.
[16:05] <PriceChild> Big enough to be in a bigger store on the high street next door to whsmiths.

[17:54] <PriceChild> * noodlesgc has quit ("THE NEXT GENERATION OF IRC IS HERE phalkyn.sf.net (coming soon)")
[17:54] <PriceChild> Does anyone else see something oddly amusing in that message?
[17:54] <Pici> The website hurts my eyes.
[17:54] <Pici> And yes, the announcement is amusing.
[17:56] <jpatrick> tis here and coming soon, hmm
[18:00] <LjL-Temp> ahum... i *somehow* think there is nothing around to achieve compressed IRC
[18:00] <LjL-Temp> since the first google hit for "compressing irc" is a log of myself

[22:42] <ubotu> In ubotu, Squawk said: !preamble is Please just ask the question rather than explaining why you have a question. You will get help much faster and the channel is easier to follow
[22:42] <LjL-Temp> hmm isn't that just a slight variant of !ask
[22:43] <LjL-Temp> we're getting a ton variations on this theme

[22:54] <nickrud> metaquestion, hahaha
[22:58] <Seeker`> has anyone seen the discussion in -uk?
[22:58] <Seeker`> apparently earthquakes are caused by global warming
[22:59] <nickrud> a good reason not to visit uk then, all that hot air
[22:59] <Seeker`> we aren't all mad
[23:00] <nickrud> heh. I live in LA , we define mad ;)
[23:00] <Seeker`> although the things some people say wind me up a little
[23:13] <Gary> Seeker`: seriously!
[23:14] <Seeker`> Gary: yes
[23:15] <Gary> hehe
