Myrttihttp://lolfed.com/2008/09/23/lol-imitates-art/06:44
MyrttiI just love it when the first things you think when you wake up is a) what the hell am I awake after three hours of sleep and an hour before the alarm goes off b) GOAH, heartburn, AGAIN.07:23
* Myrtti takes another gulp of Maalox07:23
Myrttioh, and the third thought was right after I put the radio on "what, he dried to *burn* the corpses? SHITE, why did I put the radio on?"07:25

Myrtticookies sound like something that might make me get ulcers.07:30
Myrttiulcers? /me checks wikipedia07:30
Myrttiyeah, ulcers.07:30
Myrtti"Ulcers can also be caused or worsened by drugs such as aspirin and other NSAIDs."07:31
Myrtti;___;07:31
jussi01you know its funny, Ive seen and know most of the factoids, but just saw this one for the first time...07:38
jussi01ubottu: sorry07:39
ubottuIt's ok, I can't stay mad at you.07:39
jussi01:D07:39
* Myrtti hugs ubottu 07:39
Myrttithere used to be a hook in it that made it hug back07:39
MyrttiI think07:39
elky_workwith random hugs07:40
elky_worksome of which were quite disturbing07:40
elky_workthen mneptok came and they seemed far less disturbing.07:40
jussi01hehe07:41
elky_workwhy cant i log into the bot even though whoami knows who i am07:41
elky_workoh, i see... 07:42
elky_work[2008-09-24 16:41:47] <ubottu> I'll remember that, elky_work07:42
elky_work[2008-09-24 16:41:49] <ubottu> But stupidbot already means something else!07:42
elky_workwhy is it doubling it's responses?07:42

elky_workubottu: sorry07:43
ubottuIt's ok, I can't stay mad at you. Those darned ewoks on the other hand...07:43
Myrttihahahah07:44
elky_workdisclaimer: one of the clients here looks like an ewok.07:46
elky_workone whose face has been run over by a truck, but still very ewok-esque07:47
jussi01elky: !! why did you change it...07:48
elky_workjussi01: why not?07:48
elky_workit's funnier now07:48
jussi01nah... its funnier for a small subgroup of people...07:48
elky_workfind something to replace ewoks then07:49
elkyright, chilli0 is wearing thin for others too?10:35
ikonialooks like he was a pain earlier10:37
elkythe other day he was gloating about breaking into the server at his college or something10:42
ikoniaooh him10:42
ikoniaI remember yes, I had a word with him about it10:42
ikoniabragging that he could hack school10:42
gnomefreakgloating/bragging == couldnt hack his way out of wet paper bag10:43
ikoniathat was obvious, he's a school kid10:43
elkyhehe10:43
elkythe password was probably password or abc123 or something10:43
ikonia(nothting against school kids) but he was the stereo typical "brag about being l33t"10:43
elkynothing against schools, but most havent a clue about security10:44
gnomefreakschool servers are not hard to break into but its too easy to get caught, most of times the server logs it and is looked at end of day10:44
gnomefreakl33t has no meaning to me. if you run your mouth about wha tyou can do and brag you are a moron not l3310:45
gnomefreakt10:46
elkygnomefreak, remember: 1+3+3+7 = 14, therefore anyone who is 1337 is 14.10:47
elkyand should be treated as such.10:47
gnomefreak:)10:47
ikoniaelky: best line of the day10:51

ubottuPici: Dear $DEITY, Give me strength to understand and work with users who question my logic, the rules, netiquette and common sense. Give me resilience to teach them the basics of Linux, Ubuntu, Community Guidelines and IRC. Allow me not to stray to nitpicking, argument, foul language or leisure op abuse. Deliver me my daily xkcd, User Friendly, LWN, /. and Planet Ubuntu, and guard over my encrypted drives. Let it be so.15:25
