[11:45] <rick_h> greg-g: where are you at to to afternoon'ing at 3am your time?

[11:51] <greg-g> ttps://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2017
[11:51] <greg-g> https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2017
[11:52] <rick_h> ah, well then ok. Enjoy your afternoon :)
[11:53] <greg-g> did our team offsite from Mon-Thu. Now the hackathon
[12:08] <jrwren> everyday of life is a hackathon.
[12:08] <greg-g> just not in person ;)
[12:08] <greg-g> nor surrounded by bunches of german speaking people ;)
[12:08] <jrwren> truth
[12:35] <cmaloney> morning
[12:35] <cmaloney> or, for greg-g " G'day mate"
[12:36] <cmaloney> (I hear Austrians really love that joke)
[12:36] <greg-g> :P
[12:36] <greg-g> There's a ton of souvenier shops with "No Kangaroos" patches/stickers/magnets
[12:37] <cmaloney> hah
[12:38] <cmaloney> guess if you have to deal with dumbass USAans the best thing to do is to laugh at their jokes while you take their money
[12:38] <cmaloney> s/jokes/dumb jokes/
[12:39] <greg-g> yup
[12:40] <greg-g> I wasn't there, but one night a guy came up to someone on my team and asked "Are you American?". They answered yes. And the dunk dude said "Good. I'm American as fuck!"
[12:42] <cmaloney> "Thank you, stereotype"
[12:46] <rick_h> I always hate the drunk folks outdoors in europe going "heh, you must be american"
[12:46] <rick_h> and then you have to wonder where this is going to go
[12:46] <cmaloney> That too
[12:47] <cmaloney> I'm naturally defensive of strangers in public
[12:47] <cmaloney> "Are you..." "Um...."
[12:48] <_stink_> pretend to be canadiaen?
[12:48] <_stink_> -e
[12:48] <_stink_> +a
[12:48] <cmaloney> "Um, no eh? I'm like a frickin Canadian sorry eh"
[12:48] <cmaloney> "you hoser"
[12:52] <_stink_> you're a dead ringer
[13:05] <cmaloney> thank you
[13:11] <jrwren> its funny as an american with those interactions too.
[13:11] <jrwren> in USA, if someone is drunk and in your face like that, you are probbly about to get your ass kicked.
[13:11] <jrwren> in EU, it seems people are drunk and in peoples face without the ass kicking much more often.
[13:12] <greg-g> they're a less violent people?
[13:13] <jrwren> in my opionion based only on anecdotal evidence, yes.
[13:17] <greg-g> yeah, same here, but then you know... world war I... II... all that violent history ;)
[13:17] <jrwren> nearly 100 yrs ago!
[13:17] <jrwren> :)
[13:25] <cmaloney> WEll, to be fair, Belgium was in the way
[13:25] <cmaloney> what's a load of Germans supposed to do?
[13:26] <greg-g> drink their beer?
[13:26] <cmaloney> tehy tried that, but the Belgians apparently didn't care for that
[13:27]  * cmaloney is listening to Dan Crlin's podcast about WW I
[13:27] <cmaloney> previously nnever found it that fascinating as it seemed like primitive WW II, but man did it set the stage
[13:27] <greg-g> nice. I am woefully uninformed
[13:27] <cmaloney> It's a good listen
[13:28] <cmaloney> not sure about the scholarship, but he makes it entertaining
[14:01] <dzho> oh, I really liked his thing about the battle of stalingrad
[14:02] <dzho> I ended up buying the ebook version of one of the books he referenced in it.
