LeftmostCurses.15:50
Pendulumczajkowski: will it get me a work visa? :P15:51
czajkowskiohh15:51
czajkowskinow there is a thought15:51
terranPendulum: do you like Pendulum15:51
Pendulumterran: I've not actually heard any of their stuff15:51
czajkowskiPendulum: it would if you cna do technical support15:51
terranPendulum: I really like their stuff15:52
LeftmostI've heard one track by Pendulum that I quite liked.15:52
terranthe album Immersion is excellent15:53
terranseveral fantastic tracks15:53
LeftmostThe track I know is Masochist.15:54
ebelPendulum: you're not EU based?15:55
LeftmostI'm so obviously non-EU it doesn't merit asking.16:06
Pendulumebel: I'm in the US16:24
Pendulumebel: for why I'm here, you can blame czajkowski ;-)16:24
czajkowski*grin*16:24
czajkowskiwhy is it blame me day16:24
ebelAh gotcha.16:24
czajkowskieh16:24
ebelWell if you have an irish grandparent you're EU :P16:24
daviscIt's *ALWAYS* blame-cypher-day16:25
* czajkowski wallops davisc oi oi you16:26
Pendulumebel: sadly all the Irishness in my blood is about 200 years back ;-)16:26
czajkowskiPendulum: so are the people who come over for paddys day16:26
czajkowskiand then say PATTYS  day at which point I want a baseball bat in my hand16:27
Leftmostczajkowski, because who else are we going to blame?16:27
czajkowskiI always blame fagan16:27
czajkowskiso much easier16:27
czajkowski:)16:27
Pendulumczajkowski: I don't say that. :P16:27
czajkowskithis is tru16:28
czajkowski:)16:28
czajkowskisee Pendulum rocks ye're just brats16:28
PendulumI have also never been to Ireland :(16:28
terranwhat? some people say 'Patty's day'?16:28
Pendulumterran: try 90% of the people in the US16:28
terranI have thankfully never heard anyone say this16:28
LeftmostPaddy's Day in Cork was the craziest I've seen, and far more multicultural than you'd see in the US.16:28
terranfuckin' Americans16:28
PendulumUnless you're in NYC, Boston, or Chicago where the Irish populations would beat you for it ;-)16:29
terranpresent company excepted of course16:29
LeftmostEveryone in the US just drinks green beer and says some nonsense about everyone's Irish on Paddy's Day.16:29
PendulumI've never understood the green beer. The whole idea makes me feel a bit ill16:29
terrandiddily dee potatoes16:29
ebelwe don't do the green beer thing here16:29
ebelthankfully16:29
PendulumI know16:29
Pendulumtbh, they don't limit it to beer either16:30
ebelamerican beer is like sex in a canoe. F**ing close to water.16:30
PendulumI've seen green doughnuts...16:30
LeftmostPendulum, even around here it's kind of like that. Butte, MT is a major (you know, for a state with a million people) Irish population center and it still does the stereotype thing.16:30
Leftmostebel, not here. We have proper microbreweries, like. :)16:30
Pendulumebel: to make it worse the green beer is often food dye in Guinness16:30
ebelLeftmost: I though you were USAian, not Maltese...16:31
LeftmostHarr.16:31
Leftmostebel, out of curiosity, what's the origin of your nick?16:31
czajkowskiterran: mind your languate in here please16:32
ebelMT = Malta16:32
ebelLeftmost: rot13($REAL_NAME)16:32
LeftmostWhich ISO-3166 is it that has the subregion codes? Well, if you check the subregions for the US, MT = Montana.16:33
Leftmostebel, I pasted the buffalo thing to my mother, who pointed out to me that ebel is Cornish for "foal".16:34
ebelhehehe16:34
terranczajkowski: I thought this channel was PG-1516:34
faganHuh blame me for...?16:34
LeftmostSure we even had Mary McAleese come out to Butte. :P16:35
ebelLeftmost: ISO-3166-216:35
ebelUS-MT = the statoid in the USA. MT = Malta.16:35
LeftmostI'll specify Butte, US-MT from now on.16:35
ebelor .mt.us16:35
ebellike .d.ie16:35
* slashtom didn't think anyone spoke cornish16:35
Leftmostslashtom, not many, that's for sure.16:35
* ebel uses ccTLDs as country abbreviations.16:36
LeftmostBut some do, yes.16:36
slashtommost people in cornwall are not natives16:36
ebelor .gls.eng.gb16:36
PendulumI think Cornish is one of the languages offered on Live Mocha, which always amuses me16:36
Leftmostebel, I don't like doing that as much. But I'm a bit of a standards nut, I'd say.16:36
LeftmostI suppose you could say TLDs are a sort of standard, but meh.16:36
ebelISO-3166 is nicer than the licence plate ones, cause everyone gets 2 letters. as opposed to the important countries getting less letters.16:37
LeftmostIsn't 3166-3 alpha3? Or am I just crazy now?16:37
LeftmostNo, I'm wrong. -3 is a repository for things deleted from -1. But -1 has an alpha3 mode.16:38
ebelyep16:38
slashtomaye, Italy gets 'I' Israel gets 'IL' and we get 'IRL'16:39
czajkowskiterran: all lanuage cant be offensive and we abide by the CoC so no swearing16:39
* Leftmost pets ISO-639.16:39
slashtomand even phone codes, afghanistan has a shorter code than ireland!16:39
terranczajkowski: oki16:39
LeftmostI occasionally find myself wishing that TLDs corresponded to ISO-3166-1.16:40
ebelLeftmost: they do? well ISO-3166-1 alpha2...16:44
ebel(except for a few exceptions .uk/.gb)16:44
LeftmostMostly they do. But not universally.16:45
LeftmostI also wish people would stop using flags to represent languages. *grumble*16:45
LeftmostOddly enough, I speak English. And I don't live in the UK!16:45
ebelMe either!16:46
* Pendulum holds off jokes about whether Americans actually speak English ;-)16:47
PendulumLeftmost: you're American, right?16:47
Pendulum(I'm actually asking for a reason that doesn't involve mocking, don't worry)16:48
czajkowskiheh16:50
Pendulumczajkowski: I want to know if Americans who haven't been polluted like I have by English and Irish influences think "feck" is a swear ;-)16:54
LeftmostPendulum, I am.16:54
PendulumLeftmost: is "feck" a swear?16:54
Pendulum(once you answer I'll explain the story)16:54
LeftmostDepends a bit on context.16:55
Pendulum?16:55
czajkowskilol16:55
ebelapparently in england they think feck is of similar level of obsenity to fuck. Whereas in Ireland it's viewed as a lower level of obscenity.16:55
Pendulumebel: czajkowski got told off in disney by some father because she said "feck" near his kids and "OMG can't swear next to the 10 y/os"16:56
czajkowskioh that muppet16:56
czajkowskiI'd forgotten about him16:56
ebelhehehehe16:56
czajkowskiI was in Disney I should know better16:56
ebelwhereas in ireland that's be mostly ok16:56
PendulumI think I said worse than that in Disney16:56
czajkowskihe;s so lucky his kids were there or I'd have properly sweared16:56
Pendulumheh16:56
czajkowskiI did on the roller coaster16:56
LeftmostRight, most of the time I wouldn't consider it to be as obscene, but there are contexts where I hear it used where I'd say it has a similar level.16:56
Pendulumczajkowski: that was a rollercoaster. everyone swears16:57
czajkowskimother of sweet Jebus and holy saint Jack daniels16:57
ebelreminds me of that dodgy song when i was a kid "aon focail eile"16:57
LeftmostTo be fair, czajkowski, I heard some woman in Tesco yelling at her five year old to "quit being a langer".16:57
czajkowskiLOL16:57
Pendulumczajkowski: either of those phrases wouldn't have you told off for swearing16:57
czajkowskiit's tesco makes perfectly sense16:57
LeftmostHaha.16:57
ebelhahah16:57
czajkowskiright time to go back to guest house16:57
Pendulumczajkowski: have fun16:57
czajkowskiand get changed for more beer16:57
ebelfor the bath?16:58
LeftmostIf only there had been any other shop in proximity to where I lived.16:58
ebelin bath?16:58
czajkowskiyup16:58
czajkowskinp16:58
czajkowskiBeer in BATH16:58
ebeland the rugby in bath. but you're not in rubgy.16:58
LeftmostI also heard some peculiarly Irish uses of the eff word while I was there, but that's a whole other story.16:59
* Leftmost isn't a language nerd, no.17:00
