| cmaloney | <3 | 05:36 |
| Scary_Guy | morning | 06:38 |
| cmaloney | morning | 13:54 |
| gamerchick02 | happy saturday everyone | 16:52 |
| cmaloney | Howdy | 19:54 |
| gamerchick02 | whew. been a day. has anyone here gotten asked for a ride at an Arby's? this is the second time i've been approached at the Arby's on Walton and Perry/Opdyke for either money (because someone "ran out of gas") or a ride. like really? | 20:24 |
| gamerchick02 | it's totally disconcerting. "did you drive?" "yes." "can i get a ride?" "no." | 20:25 |
| gamerchick02 | i was rude, but at this point in my life, i've gotten over the "oh crap, better not be rude to a total stranger even if they threaten my time/life/money/etc". | 20:26 |
| gamerchick02 | i think the asker was taken aback that i said "no" with no question in my voice or hesitation to think. | 20:27 |
| Scary_Guy | tell them to download uber, if they can't do that tell them to make better life decisions | 20:34 |
| gamerchick02 | maybe i should be nicer but damn. | 20:34 |
| gamerchick02 | i'm getting crotchety in my old age. | 20:34 |
| cmaloney | heh | 20:35 |
| Scary_Guy | I'm slightly more outgoing but I'm also armed. Way more likely if I have someone else in the car too | 20:35 |
| gamerchick02 | i'm not armed unless you count my pocketknife. | 20:36 |
| Scary_Guy | was outside of Small's last month and some homeless woman was begging for food for her kids in the park. another patron went and bought her a pizza. so she's carrying around this pizza begging for more food | 20:36 |
| gamerchick02 | this woman looked down on her luck (sorry lady) and she reeked of ciggies. | 20:37 |
| Scary_Guy | food money* | 20:37 |
| Scary_Guy | people tend to make their own luck :/ | 20:37 |
| gamerchick02 | food money? yeah when i was in flint i was downtown at GFAC and some guy was like "i'm hungry and can't afford food" and one of the members of my Rotaract group was like "ok, i'll get you a halo burger" and the guy was like "no i want mcdonalds" | 20:38 |
| gamerchick02 | please note, mcdonalds is a DRIVE from GFAC and halo burger is next freaking door. | 20:38 |
| Scary_Guy | apparently beggars can be choosers | 20:38 |
| gamerchick02 | my rotaract friend was like "no if you want me to get you something to eat, then you get halo burger." | 20:39 |
| gamerchick02 | begging guy wandered off | 20:39 |
| Scary_Guy | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLwtMM4Hoac completely NSFW, but hilarious | 20:40 |
| gamerchick02 | if i was younger i might have hesitated in my "no" to this woman. i'm glad i'm An Old now (and i think she was older than me, but whatever) and have enough life experience to just say no to these people. it's hard sometimes, but geez. | 20:40 |
| gamerchick02 | oh and cmaloney, she did have a cell phone | 20:40 |
| cmaloney | Um, I'd fucking take Halo Burger any day of the week over McDs | 20:41 |
| Scary_Guy | probably has less cardboard content at least | 20:41 |
| cmaloney | Halo burger actually has a picture of the meat that you'd be eating on the door | 20:41 |
| Scary_Guy | how old are you? | 20:41 |
| gamerchick02 | i'm 36. | 20:42 |
| Scary_Guy | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKWYLtJLW5o I'm going to use this all year until it's no longer relevant | 20:42 |
| gamerchick02 | i'm comparing it to when i was 23. i might have hesitated back then. | 20:43 |
| gamerchick02 | HAH i love that, Scary_Guy | 20:43 |
| Scary_Guy | at this point I'm more likely to say yes, what's the worst that can happen? I get killed? awesome, less bullshit I have to put up with then | 20:43 |
| gamerchick02 | cmaloney, halo burger is delicious and if i was begging i would be freaking STOKED to get that instead of mcd's. | 20:44 |
| cmaloney | Yeah | 20:44 |
| cmaloney | so this person's judgement can't be trusted | 20:44 |
| cmaloney | you made the right call | 20:44 |
| Scary_Guy | person was begging for cash for food, so the decisions that lead them there already indicate strongly that they should not be trusted :/ | 20:45 |
| gamerchick02 | i miss it. i think there's one somewhere around in the metro d area but i don't want to drive an hour for it. if i'm going to do that, i'm going up to the outlet mall. | 20:45 |
| Scary_Guy | I'm not saying everyone is bad, some people really do need the cash and are just victims of the system... most others however... | 20:45 |
| gamerchick02 | yeah, i know. i'm jaded from my time in flint. | 20:46 |
| Scary_Guy | Is it prepared by a Master Chef? | 20:46 |
| gamerchick02 | and this approach here in (technically) Pontiac just sealed my grumpy heart deal | 20:46 |
| gamerchick02 | halo burger? probably not, but it's delicious. QP + cheese - mayo + pepper rings is heaven | 20:47 |
| Scary_Guy | I hang out in the D a ton, I see some homeless but I think they buss most of them to Pontiac and Flint | 20:47 |
| gamerchick02 | i lived in the rich white kid apartment complex across from Kettering, so luckily i didn't have anyone coming to my door. | 20:47 |
| Scary_Guy | http://globalgeeknews.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Master-Chief-is-a-Master-Chef.jpg | 20:47 |
| gamerchick02 | you know the one, the one with the 12 foot fence and the razor wire on top with the barbed wire too. | 20:48 |
| gamerchick02 | Scary_Guy, HAH i love that one too | 20:48 |
| Scary_Guy | automated gun turrets? yeah sounds awesome | 20:48 |
| gamerchick02 | no. | 20:48 |
| Scary_Guy | damn | 20:48 |
| gamerchick02 | but i do know there were a couple KU kids who carried in their backpack | 20:48 |
| gamerchick02 | technically the campus is "gun free" but we knew the kids who carried. asked one of them to walk me to the 7-11 once. he was a nice kid. | 20:49 |
| Scary_Guy | all the other kids with their pumped-up kicks? | 20:49 |
| gamerchick02 | HAH we were all kids with not much life experience back then. | 20:49 |
| Scary_Guy | do you like Mondays? | 20:50 |
| gamerchick02 | ah to not be worried about things, just walkin around in flinttown | 20:50 |
| gamerchick02 | since i have my new job, i love Mondays. why? | 20:50 |
| Scary_Guy | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yteMugRAc0 I have a softspot about songs referencing school shootings :/ | 20:50 |
| Scary_Guy | or in that case, in tribute to the victims. mental health services in this country (and state, thanks Engler) suck | 20:53 |
| gamerchick02 | yes they do and i think that's one of the reasons why we have people asking for food and rides at the Arby's on Walton and Perry. | 20:54 |
| Scary_Guy | that and the drug war | 20:54 |
| gamerchick02 | the drug war. sounds like the skeleton war. too bad it's not harmless like the skeleton war. | 20:55 |
| Scary_Guy | doot doot. anyway yeah, if we treated the drug epidemic as a treatment issue rather than an enforcement issue people could get help without fear of also being locked up/branded as addicts | 20:56 |
| Scary_Guy | also it would reduce the black market to nothing | 20:56 |
| gamerchick02 | +1 i agree | 20:56 |
| gamerchick02 | ALSO for all the Bob Ross fans in the audience: http://www.scarymommy.com/target-bob-ross-board-game/?utm_source=glp&utm_campaign=GLP&utm_medium=partner | 20:57 |
| Scary_Guy | not what I'd expect a site called "scarymommy" to be about but okay | 20:58 |
| gamerchick02 | hah same | 20:58 |
| gamerchick02 | ok i'm going to watch some murder she wrote. i do not know why i love this show but i do | 20:58 |
| Scary_Guy | I was expecting more like a Casey Anthony site or something | 20:58 |
| Scary_Guy | okay, yeah you are old :p | 20:59 |
| gamerchick02 | peace and i might pop in on a commercial break (ps i love cozi tv) | 20:59 |
| Scary_Guy | Matlock on after that? | 20:59 |
| gamerchick02 | hey now, i watched this when i was a kid | 20:59 |
| Scary_Guy | fair enough, I do the same | 20:59 |
| gamerchick02 | uh, i think the 6 million dollar man is next. then the bionic woman, then columbo. and yes, i do like matlock | 20:59 |
| Scary_Guy | Car 54 Where Are You? | 21:00 |
| gamerchick02 | :) | 21:00 |
| Scary_Guy | My Three Sons | 21:00 |
| gamerchick02 | never got into that one | 21:00 |
| Scary_Guy | It was on and I was bored as a kid. Nick-at-Nite was a great distraction | 21:01 |
| Scary_Guy | anyway TTYL, I'm going to try to get some sleep before the game night house party/Small's/City Club night of doom starts | 21:01 |
| jrwren | i thought they bus a lot of homeless to AA | 21:02 |
| Scary_Guy | no, the scoops get them and take them to the factory to get "processed" | 21:02 |
| gamerchick02_ | ooof | 21:02 |
| gamerchick02_ | hey i got irc on my chromebook | 21:02 |
| gamerchick02_ | :) | 21:02 |
| gamerchick02_ | i'm using hte Byrd client, if anyone is interested | 21:13 |
| jrwren | anyone know wine verywell? does it support ipv6? | 22:51 |
| jrwren | nm, supports it fine. | 22:55 |
