[12:45] not for a while ikonia [12:45] I get people telling me ubuntu sucks every day. he is not special [12:45] I hadn't seen him, wondered if he was still doing it [12:46] he was special, as he went out of his way to join just to tell you repeatedly [12:46] well, yes. [12:46] that was special effort [12:48] Although to be fair since 14.04 came out the number of people bitching at me directly has dropped [12:48] I wonder if they think YOU have done a good job on 14.04 thenj [12:54] hah [15:39] weird [15:40] ?

[20:42] no [20:42] I did do +m for a minute [20:42] while I got on top of it [20:42] but that's been removed [20:43] I can do +q $~a if you want [20:43] okay. because you said "until you register you won't be able to talk" [20:43] bad choice of wording [20:43] I meant if they /part come back they won't be getting in [20:43] okay :) [20:43] i guess the bot wave stopped [20:43] I was rushing to type before people started asking "why why" [20:43] looks like it [20:44] or not [20:44] no [20:44] I'll leave +r now [20:44] hum [20:45] -unregged shows several klined.
