Strange Observations For Today>
Winter
soft: im not the only one who gets screwed on my paychecks!
thursday
soft: i think im running in slow motion.
LA REINE
soft: i keep buying dessert items.
thursday
that doesnt sound especially strange.
soft: erin and jason have not come home yet.
scorpio
soft: a fairly decent party at bk's
a few overly obnoxoius people though.
scorpio
well..
i did it..
i may as well face it and
join it,
even though i started it..
ZooKeeper
SOFT: ever notice how flamingly mad and accusing people get about things they were told that they have forgotten they were ever told? and it's even worse if you remind them that they were told... ???
Blain Nelson
Lab Rat -- yes, but they are never in control of other people. So does that mean that they're always mad, or just when they're reminded of it?
ZooKeeper
Molly -- are you a sister I haven't met yet? :>
Black Wolf
soft- I thought this room was supposed to only be netted between Dystopia and Time outta mind?
ZooKeeper
BW -- it sorta is -- but they let it out, so it's out here. they probably get our messages in, but theirs don't get out now that they have it grouped between themselves. their grouping it (finally) did not, however, destroy the room on every other board on which it already existed.
FuzzyWuzzy
soft > Now there are three of them, I think I will go hide somewhere.
scorpio
bw: yeah, because it seems that sysops don't see it as a courtesy to kill
a room that is supposed to be private...
but for the record, it was never even supposed to go to dystopia..
that was the accident..
it was supposed to be netted to a board in seattle
but now i just put the room back in regular access.. since it's too late..
whats the sense of having a net room thats private when you have
another one with the same name going on all the other boards?..
monty: the fact that this room is a cool idea was the precise reason
of it being private.. the whole thing of 'soft' was a term that we coined... and now everyone is using it..
it's the same thing as 'grunge' was..
i disagree with you..
it's the same with with the whatcom rooms..
if i was running a board in seattle and i got 'whatcom garbage' for
some reason, and you said it was a whatcom only room, i would have no problem killing it..
even if there was supposedly good conversation going on in it..
i guess i learned my lesson..
Megamol
zk....I think so....
Torch Song
But Fuzzy, you were out-numbered even before ZK & I found out we were twins...so why should triplets worry you?
<wicked chuckle>
Winter
GuS!!!!!!
Lab Rat
SOFT > Excellent scheduling on the administration's part left me hiking seven floors to find a men's bathroom today that wasn't being cleaned, so I could take a shower.
Torch Song
scorpio -- actually I killed this room at both LNZ & TWV...
then you called & said what the heck, so I unkilled them...
<sigh> can't win either way, huh?
Megamol
that's right Fuzzy....relax, don't worry.
FuzzyWuzzy
Help!
Blain Nelson
I guess the bottom line is you net rooms at your own risk. I've had rooms go out across the net that I didn't want to have out across the net.
Ick happens.
MontyL
Hmmm...
scorpio
no no... i don't really care anymore at this point...
it's all over the place now...
i guess i'm just arguing ethics...
i figured when i sent the message out way back when saying that this is a private room, and asked if all the sysops would kill it..
but they didn't..
blain and monty thought it was a good idea
so they kept it..
and let it go everywhere...
owell.
funny thing though, monty asked helix if he would kill whatcom garbage
when it got down to his board by accident..
double standard perhaps?
MontyL
Ethics, scorp? Oooo-kaaay...
Whatcom Garbage got out due to a crash having wiped the grouping for the room. The grouping is back on, and Helix is left with an empty room. I haven't bothered asking him to kill it, for lack of need.
There are no outside messages getting in, which is the point, is it not?
I could give a flying shit if they want to use the room to flame those of us in the county, or plan terrorist acts, for that matter. _I_ can't see what they're doing/not doing with it, _you_ can't see what they're doing, _NOBODY_ in Whatcom County can see it, if they are indeed having a gay old time with it. It matters not.
Apply the same thinking to SOFT, and you get my point.
Besides... If you've put it behind you, what is it that makes you bring it back up every opportunity you get, typically posting the same thing each time?
(shakes head)
elf
Sorry LAb Rat
Solitaire
Yeah, that's too bad lr..:(
Torch Song
<applause, Monty>
LITTLE MERMAID
sheesh!
scorpio
monty: i guess i'm just anal retentive about certain things..
Torch Song
SOFT: The weather in our little corner of the globe seems to be good metaphor for life. Just when you think you know what's happening, things change; about the time you start to get adjusted, things change again.
elf
good for you Scorpio!
SOFT: people tend to disscuss loudly what you really don't want to hear. two women today n my art class were practically shouting about breast pumps, I'm the only one in their who dose't have a kid, weird
GorgonZolA SlinKy
elf: no kidding.
yesterday at lunch my friends were discussing castration with a dull spoon
I decided then to exit stage left and get myself a sandwich.
soft: two homeys almost trespassed on my property and almost assaulted my dad till he told my sister tocall the police.
I wish I'dhave been home, ( I was out, my dad told me this)
because I know where the baseball bat is.
bastards.
Diakonos
Geez, Louise! What's with y`all?
scorpio
hmm..
i'm sorry for all the other users having to see all this crap
we're spewing..
Lab Rat
SOFT: so many people go through life with no curiosity. when informed of the presence of tunnels under the UW, ones that can take you anywhere on campus and lead into most of the basements, they just shrug. not even a flicker of curiosity.
and then there were the people that thought the Far Side where GL makes a political statment about Camel Cigarrettes (by comparing them to selling suicide with guns and ropes) was not even mildly humorous.
another one is why would someone, just when they need the other person the most and are really lost and alone without them, completely reject the other person and ignore their presence?
GorgonZolA SlinKy
winter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what?
Solitaire
There're tunnels under UW? cool.
Helix Quark
just change the netid and start over.
GorgonZolA SlinKy
scorp: CERTAIN things?
:)
FRuG
SOFT: elf is left without any kids and I don't have any either.
FRuG
SOFT: When your mind is so screwed up and confused, (such as mine) the apathy
level goes out the door. I don't care about anything, this frustrates me even more
and makes me even more depressed and want to sleep.
elf
Ugh dosen't sound like a fun experience GorgonZola Slinky...
Ana Ng
no way
no freaking way
this room
i hear it reaches maryland now
soft; this room in oly
Prick
it didnt start here
Prick
in fact i think its pretty dumb
Prick
strange observations always turn out to be either a) pretentious little tidbit anecdotes that happen to everybody, only you might have the ability to put it into cooler words, or b) flat out lies.
Prick
or sometimes they're actually strange observations but that's only when they're mine
Bookworm
Sorry FW. No help possible. ;>
Megamol
FRuG----it really sucks while it lasts, but it does get better with time, lots of time.....
scorpio
elf: i think it's hilarious that you spell out his entire nym... :)
it's funny..
gus: shut up :)
soft: having some time to spare this morning...
GorgonZolA SlinKy
soft: I'd have gotten 100% on my Derivative test if I had gotten
[g(x)^4]' right.
fuckfuckfuckfuck
soft: my space bar isnt' a bar anymore, I was forced to take the bar part off because it was too heavy to spring back up after I pushed it (the spring broke) so now I have a space button.
GorgonZolA SlinKy
soft: after I read my post on Oct 23 1:08 am, I wondered what it would be like caving in a homey's skull with a geniuine Ken Griffey Jr. Baseball bat
attack of morbidity, sorry
LA REINE
soft: i keep banging my elbow into the doorway in my bathroom. ow. big bruise. hurts. and then of course i keep banging the alrady sore appendage into other things.
Lab Rat
SOFT: there just aren't enough lines on the screen to keep a serial port, keyboard, and cron monitor open and read messages effectively without changing your lines-per-pause...
Diakonos
GorgonZolA SlinKy - I have lotsa springs in a little drawer and would gladly mail you one or two if you need them.
elf
sounds like FRuG needs a >>>>>>><<<<<<<<<
GorgonZolA SlinKy
what does cron mean?
scorpio
roya: and it's all because of 'lil old me..
LITTLE MERMAID
ouch! don't sleep when youre depressed or just brain wacked,, because when you wake up you wont want to move for hours! trust me it's true.
GorgonZolA SlinKy
Diakonos: nah, dont worry, I ike it this way, it's quieter, and I"m learning better finger placement. :)
GorgonZolA SlinKy
hug frug
FRuG
The opposite of croff? Didn't you see the movie 'TRON' ???
LA REINE
soft: every ti me i try to watch tron something happens to interrupt and i have yet to see that movie.
ZooKeeper
{{LM}} I know.
elf
why is it so weird that I spell out the whole name Scorpio?
ZooKeeper
elf -- because people abbreciate names like wolfie's, and mine...
and what you're spelling out is bigger than wolfie's and mine together!
:>
SOFT: just when I get used to thinking I know what's coming, it changes.
just when I get used to things changing, they stay the same.
just when I get used to thinking I'll just give it up, I find out I
was right.
now what?
Ana Ng
actually it's not supposed to be
i mean, nize went off for a while about that
explaining how people don't post the intended thinsYp?5{<Wh-Gtg9s%wLW@ny><,~66GJA^L3SdByL:/2+
Ana Ng
