* waltman is amazed that in 2012 he has to explain to his idiot brother the difference between vegetarian and vegan.14:52
jedijfjust because of a little insect goo?15:01
waltmanWe're planning a birthday party for my mom's 75th birthday, and for some reason suggesting we have a non-meat dish has proved confusing.15:03
waltman"Grilled Salmon or Eggplant Rollatini - not sure if there are any non-meat eaters or vegans, but we should offer one just in case."15:03
waltmanI tried to explain to him yesterday that "vegan" and "vegetarian" weren't synonyms, but he didn't get it.15:05

waltmanSometimes I think I must have been switched at birth.15:06
passstabit looks like there isn't a full DWW this week :(15:06
* waltman notes the date15:07
passstablol15:07
jedijfwaltman: don't let them go for it15:08
passstabyour allot faster then i was15:08
jedijferr15:08
waltmanjedijf: ?15:08
passstabit was AFTER the screenshot15:08
passstabthat i remebered15:08
waltmanallot?15:09
jedijfwaltman: it was supposed to read don't tell them about 4/1 - it will prove that they believe what they want to believe15:09
jedijfand only those who care really pay attention to the vegan vs vegetarian difference15:10
waltmanRight, but you really want to use "vegetarian" as the catch-all word15:10
waltmanWhen he uses "vegan" like that he sounds like a complete idiot to me.15:11
jedijfwell, i guess when doing an event and if you care about them, go vegan is safeest15:11
jedijfsafest15:11
waltmana vegan wouldn't be able to eat much at this place15:11
jedijfvegetarian, no dairy shut up and eat, or don't15:11
jedijfeggplant nor parm15:12
jedijf*no15:12
waltmanNow he's claiming he's very familiar with each term. I'm still skeptical.15:13
SamuraiAlbaoooh15:14
SamuraiAlbaMagic:The Gathering time.15:14
jedijfwaltman: don't stress anyway, vegans are used to be odd people out and generally aren't trusting eaters when out anyway15:30
passstabjedijf, did you see that vinux thing?15:30
jedijfpassstab: yeah, i crafted a response and then thought better not to respond because we are only sponsors, that email accomplished it's goal to the extent that we can promote it for tech week15:31
jedijfto our list15:32
jedijfif/when we have events, all are welcome to attend, and if it's that important to our members, they can self-promote15:32
passstabso we won't do anything?15:33
jedijffor example, at one release party, i had unr installed so people could play with it15:33
passstabahh15:33
jedijfpassstab: that email made no sense15:33
passstabi'm sorry15:34
jedijfnot yours the blind one15:34
passstaboh15:34
passstabyea i agree15:34
jedijfa sensible response would have been, we, vinux, want to do a demo event for tech week at xyz on xyz at xyz time15:34
passstabhe probably dosn't know what techweek is15:34
jedijfhe should, vinux should have read it to him15:35
passstabok but what WILL we do for TW?15:35
jedijfi haven't responded myself yet, waiting for others. see the problem? but anyway, i think promoting our later (week or 2) release party will better suit are needs15:36
jedijfmy thinking is tech week attendees would rather use the week to see other things than ubuntu, even though they may have an interest. letting them know of an event later, when there aren't as many choices to split our crowd may be most benficial15:37
jedijfi keep looking thru the event schedule trying to find a day/time slot not to step on any allies toes15:39
jedijfjust to do an 'informational' event15:40
jedijffeel free to do so and make suggestions15:40
jedijfwe can do a hey meet Ubuntu LoCo team during week at Manayunk diner (for example)15:41
jedijfbut again, with an upcoming Release event, we have to realize that people only have so much time to give to geek, and don't want to waste it15:42
jedijfme for example ^^^^15:42
jedijfhive music night is usually a good event15:44
* rmg51 can no longer do weeknight events, he has to babysit his mom :'(15:46
jedijfand if we personally attend any events, Linux advocacy seems to happen automagically15:48
jedijfi would like to maybe setup a Core Kiosk on a lappy15:50
