nickrudgenii, how's the cig thing going? 14th patch today04:28
geniitritium: Actually a nutrition shake today since it's 11:30ish PM04:28
geniinickrud: About 4-6 a day currently04:28
tritiumgenii: ah, good deal04:28
nickrudnear the point of not physically addicted :)04:29
nickrudor at, even04:29
geniinickrud: I've been cranky as all hell04:29
nickrudgenii talking to the choir here. 04:30
FlannelGah.  Why must people act so silly?04:31
nickrudthere'd be nothing to define sanity04:33
* Flannel notes that sanity is actually pretty topical.04:34
geniiFlannel: Perhaps they're not acting.04:35
Flannelwell, sanity is defined as doing the same thing/expecting different result.04:35
Flannelor, insanity, that is.04:35
Flannelsomeone;s running something, it displays that its done 12 out of 120, and its taken about 20 hours.  How many more hours would *you* think it would take?04:36
nickrud12?04:37
genii180  hours?04:38
* nickrud gets to be silly, he's old04:38
Flannelnickrud: 12 units out of 120 units04:38
Flannelgenii: Exactly!04:38
Flannelso, I answer him, "about 180", and... apparently he's asked a few other people already.04:38
nickrudFlannel, you really think I gave that answer with a sane mind ??!04:38
FlannelI reminded him that unlike parents, technical problems don't tend to change estimates each time you ask them.04:39
nickrudstory problems trip up a lot of people.04:39
geniiFlannel: I suspect the prospect of 180 more hours is just so un-faceable they want to keep making sure those numbers are really correct04:41

ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about sanity05:28
Amaranth!sanity-#ubuntu-offtopic is <reply>The statistics on sanity is that one out of every four persons are suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends — if they’re okay, then it’s you.05:28

Flanneloooo, more vanity factiods!05:28

Flannelbut, maybe thats not an issue anymore05:32
FlannelIf anyone asks, the first one should've been a ban, but he came back and saved me from having to set it manually.08:12

SlartCan someone please tell me if Keal in #ubuntu is really just a troll or a bit slow.. my vote is for troll but so far he is kind of amusing11:26

Myrttiok, here's a riddle16:13
MyrttiI have a pack of microfiber cloths16:13
Myrttithe package has four cloths: "taupe", "brown", "red" and "cream"16:14
Myrttiwhat I see in the package is "light brown", "brown", "red" and "nearly white"16:14
MyrttiI can rule out "red" and "nearly white" out of the equasion16:15
Myrttibut which is "taupe" and which is "brown"?16:15
Mezis one "greyish"?16:15
Mezand taupe is probably the darker one16:16
Mezhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taupe16:17
* Myrtti takes a picture16:21
MezI'd say that the one between red and cream was taupe16:23
Myrttihttp://flickr.com/photos/myrtti/3233609933/16:24
Myrttiand I myself would pick the lighter one...16:24
Myrtti*sigh*16:24
Mezcall it what you want :D I'd personally call the dark one "chocolate" and the light one "light brown"16:26
Mezbut I didnt name the colours16:26
Myrttineither did I16:26
Myrttistupid Dunelm16:26
Mezargh, broken written english ... I hate it, I cant tell if a comment was sarcastic or not16:27
