| Austin | hello ladies | 22:08 |
| MarkDude | Hello boy austin | 22:18 |
| MarkDude | rly | 22:18 |
| Austin | wait u can use abbreviation but every one else make a big deal when i do | 22:24 |
| MarkDude | How about little dude Austin, better | 22:31 |
| MarkDude | ? | 22:31 |
| MarkDude | I was mocking you if that was not clear | 22:31 |
| MarkDude | Quite a few patient people here, I am not one of them | 22:32 |
| MarkDude | If you are genuine tho, this is a really cool group of people here | 22:32 |
| MarkDude | No big deal, just try again | 22:32 |
| MarkDude | Its all good :) | 22:32 |
| rww | MarkDude: Regardless of the truth of it, http://freenode.net/catalysts.shtml tends to work a lot better than calling people trolls. The latter doesn't really help (if they are, the ops generally can figure that out themselves:), and isn't likely to get them to change their behavior. | 22:34 |
| * MarkDude will leave that to the reasonable folks | 22:34 | |
| * MarkDude 's Elder Statesman progress can only happen at a certain rate, but, I am trying | 22:35 | |
| maco | MarkDude: shouting "troll!" at people just makes them defensive | 22:36 |
| MarkDude | Or sometimes like in this case it was a reality check | 22:37 |
| MarkDude | It appears that i was wrong. And that he may have just been mistaken :) | 22:37 |
| rww | is best to just not say anything, in my experience. I've had #ubuntu-offtopic ops express frustration in places I can read when I (used to) call people out :) | 22:37 |
| rww | unless nobody's around and it gets to be a large disruption, and then there's the ops factoid | 22:38 |
| MarkDude | Being rude - even if unintentional deserves a reaction | 22:38 |
| MarkDude | IMHO | 22:38 |
| MarkDude | reasonableness works almost all of the time, not all tho | 22:38 |
| MarkDude | Especially with men, I have been spoken to about being to uppity | 22:39 |
| MarkDude | Fact is it is hard for a man to realize what it is like to be called a disrespectful term, unless it happens to them | 22:40 |
| MarkDude | *reality* even if a small % of the time | 22:40 |
| rww | some reactions work better than others. some have a net worse effect than not saying anythingg | 22:40 |
| MarkDude | You are correct on the whole rww | 22:40 |
| maco | so, next time someone asks "are men allowed here?" the answer is !men | 22:40 |
| MarkDude | I only reacted after the who sets the rules here | 22:41 |
| MarkDude | Common sense here | 22:41 |
| MarkDude | Anyway , are you going to DVLUG tonight | 22:41 |
| rww | maco: if only there were an xkcd about male feminists. we could make a modified copy of !girls :) | 22:42 |
| maco | well for now we have... | 22:42 |
| maco | !men | 22:42 |
| ubot4` | Yes, men exist within the Ubuntu Women Project. | 22:42 |
| pleia2 | thanks maco :) | 22:42 |
| nhandler | Keep in mind, both the !men and !guidelines are channel specific factoids for here and #ubuntu-women. They won't work in other channels | 22:43 |
| MarkDude | Yep, there should be global reminders tho | 22:44 |
| maco | nhandler: well the normal guidelines one will work elsewhere :P | 22:44 |
| nhandler | maco: Yes, but it will be different :) | 22:45 |
| maco | right but elsewhere doesnt need to be told to read ours | 22:45 |
| maco | i dont *think* !men needs to be global... nobody asks elsewhere whether men are allowed in the channel | 22:46 |
| nhandler | Agreed | 22:47 |
| pleia2 | might need a !women elsewhere though (yes, women exist on the internet) :P | 22:49 |
| * pleia2 removes tongue from cheek | 22:49 | |
| rww | we have one :) | 22:49 |
| rww | !women | 22:50 |
| ubot4` | The women and men of the Ubuntu Women project hang out in #ubuntu-women. Encouraging women to use linux? Read http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Encourage-Women-Linux-HOWTO/ for some suggestions compiled by women who use Linux on how to do so effectively. | 22:50 |
| rww | !girls | 22:50 |
| ubot4` | Girls exist on the internet. See http://www.escapistmagazine.com/print/17/27 | http://www.xkcd.com/322/ | For more interesting reading: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Encourage-Women-Linux-HOWTO/ | 22:50 |
| pleia2 | oh :) | 22:50 |
| pleia2 | neat | 22:50 |
| MarkDude | the women factoid should say women & men that play well together | 22:52 |
| rww | you and your ampersands :( | 22:52 |
| maco | MarkDude: that could be misconstrued | 22:52 |
| * MarkDude went to *Im ok - your ok preschool* | 22:52 | |
| maco | do they not have appostrophes there? | 22:53 |
| * maco runs | 22:53 | |
| MarkDude | Playing well with others is the ideal, IMHO | 22:53 |
| rww | your okay what? | 22:53 |
| * rww also runs | 22:53 | |
| MarkDude | No, but they taught us that that most people are ok, as long as they play well with others | 22:53 |
| AlanBell | MarkDude: it is always polite to help people find their loco team | 22:57 |
| MarkDude | yes. that is true | 22:57 |
| AlanBell | if someone appears to be in the wrong place, then guide them to a more appropriate place | 22:58 |
| MarkDude | Minus the spelling, the actions now happening are an improvement from the start | 22:58 |
| MarkDude | Just sayin' | 22:59 |
| AlanBell | indeed | 22:59 |
| MarkDude | :) | 22:59 |
| * MarkDude was set to go on a date a while ago, I was able to look past the spelling on the texting, but, when I saw she did that in email, I was the opposite of stoked | 23:00 | |
| Austin | ed | 23:10 |
| MarkDude | No biggy Austin . And for the record, I m given a bad time for some of the slang I use. | 23:12 |
| MarkDude | Even more so from folks in California | 23:12 |
| Austin | wat slang | 23:20 |
| Austin | is anyone still here | 23:21 |
| MarkDude | The slang that I use | 23:23 |
| MarkDude | dude, stoked, etc | 23:23 |
| MarkDude | 3rd generation Californian - I am one of those | 23:23 |
| hypatia | Austin: "wat" is not a word in English | 23:32 |
| althara | I say "dude" a lot too. And "totally". | 23:33 |
| pleia2 | MarkDude has contagious slang, 5 months here and I end up with "hella" in my vocabulary | 23:33 |
| althara | I was just going to mention that one. :) | 23:33 |
| rww | nah, that's a general Californian thing. You'll probably start abusing 'like' soon, too. | 23:34 |
| pleia2 | everyone in the US abuses like | 23:34 |
| rww | California started it ;P | 23:34 |
| althara | like totally | 23:34 |
| MarkDude | Righteous bro, is a phrase I have been trying to eliminate from my vocab | 23:36 |
| MarkDude | dont forget the word *awesome* | 23:36 |
| althara | I abuse that one too :) | 23:36 |
| rww | althara: #ubuntu-california's bot used to be named LikeTotally :) | 23:36 |
| althara | sweet | 23:36 |
| MarkDude | I try to use it in the dictionary sense of the word | 23:36 |
| rww | anyways, we should perhaps shift this over to -women ;P | 23:37 |
| pleia2 | rww: aww, I like that better | 23:37 |
| althara | I use it sarcastically for the most part | 23:37 |
| MarkDude | the word dude has like 20+meanings | 23:37 |
| * MarkDude and my excessive use of like as a *filler* word | 23:38 | |
